Dear Mr. Jones:
This is to acknowledge your letter of September 25, 1969. Our Department
has taken an active interest in housing in the pasf few years and will continue to do
so in the future in view of new Workable Program requirements concerning housing.
During the next few months, we will attempt to accomplish the following work tasks:
1. To establish clear standards by which to judge whether new housing
serves low, moderate or upper-income families. | think we all
agree that there are problems with the standards we are presently
using; however, we are well aware that the standards were hastily
established.
2. After establishing the above standards, we will attempt to evaluate
all housing permitted within the past 2 1/2 years and to provide you
with an analysis of this information. We will be attempting to
establish a format which will meet HUD Workable Program guide-
lines for future reporting and also serve City heads.
3. After completion of items ‘one and two, our staff will begin the
design of a city-wide housing study.
fn ef, 2
