SUBJECT: Urban Reautification Tup Timentaeton

It is expected that the city's 1967 Urban. Beautification Application will be funded
by the end of October,

In April you were notified that the city had received a Letter of Consent from the
Department of Housing and Urban Development notifying us that expenditures for any
activity identified in the Urban Beautification application would not subsequently

be disallowed soley because they were made prior to the approval of the application,
providing expenditures so made were in full conformity with the application as it

might be approved, the terms of the contract for Federal grant assistance and the policies
and requirements under the Urban Beautification and Improvement Program.

The city has only 34 months to finish or have under contract all activities listed in
the application. To make sure the city meets its commitment it is requested that all
participating departments review their programs and forward their Urban Beautification
schedule to Eric Harkness, City Planning Department, to determine where we stand on
the overall program. Jf some activities in the application are not underway, they
should be made ready and the contract let by the end of December, 1967.

The city must make every effort to begin all activities in the 1967 application or
the city's eligibility could be jeopardized if the residentially related activities
drop below 60% of the cost of activities included in the application.

If circumstances have produced changes or deletion of any of the 1967 activities,
please inform me because it may be necessary to substitute other activities in order
to-maintain our 60% minimum. Such changes can be made easily prior to approval of
the application but after approval would require an amendatory application.

The 1967 application was also forwarded to you in April. The only changes which
have been made are in the Parks and School Departments activities.

If you have any questions, please contact me at 522-4463, Ext. 325.
