MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr.
From: Malcolm D. Jones
Re my memorandum to you yesterday pertaining to the proposed compromise
on off site improvements for the Turnkey project on Gilbert Road at Flynn Road.
Mr. Bystry, the Whiting-Turner developer, has informed me that he has
turned the matter over to Mr. Satterfield and will abide by any solution worked
out by Mr. Satterfield with the City,
Mr. Satterfield reports that he has contacted the HUD attorney in Ray
Hanson's office, as suggested by Henry Bowden, and that the attorney's opinion
is that the Cooperation Agreement between the City of Atlanta and the Housing
Authority does apply to Turnkey projects in development, as though the project
were actually being developed by the Housing Authority itself.
Mr. Satterfield states that in essence the Cooperation Agreement provides:
(1) ‘The City will provide necessary access streets and boundary streets;
and
(2) The City will bring to the site all necessary facilities (that
thie includes sewer). .
Mr. Satterfield further states that he will stand on this; however, since
agreement has already been made by the Developer to pave all of Flynn Road (a
boundary street), he will not reopen this and hopes that HUD will overlook it
and allow the cost as part of the project development, but he feels the City
should not lock to Developer for any additional off site improvements.
Henry Bowden will be informed, as soon ar I can contact him, of the HUD
attorney's opinion obtained informally and verbally.
I will have a copy of the Cooperation Agreement Monday, February 26, for
examination.
Veet Mr. Dan E. Sweat, Jr.
