Dear Mr. Cawthorne:

We are delighted that information contained in the Atlanta
Community Improvement Program Data Processing File might be of use
to you. We have spent more than two years in the development of
the file system and in géethering the data which has been placed in
it. Your office has been of great assistance during this period
and we would like to express our appreciation for your outlay of time,
effort and working space.

We have, at this time, transmitted to you a copy of our
latest “error edit" which conteins an identification of most of the
"improvements only" parcels in the City of Atlanta. By using this
print-out you should be able to locate these parcels and make any
edjustments necessary.

In regard to the listing of all parcels and associated information
which you have indicated might be helpful in your land re-appraisal,
we would like to caution that the data in our files was collected
primarily in 1965, Regular updating of zoning information is being
accomplished, but land use data will be based on 1965 uses. We would
suggest also that you contact the City Comptroller, Mr. Charles Davis,
in regard to procedures for obtaining a copy of the file at the time
you @re ready to begin the study, since the file is being updated with
changes originating in your office at this time. Quite possibly changes
accumulated over a years time will have a significant effect on your
study,

We ere also interested in talking with you about the possibilities
of instituting a permanent information updating system for our file
using information which the appraisers collect in their normal operations
in the field. Items which are especially important in this regard are
land uses, structural conditions and the number of residential units on
each parcel. If this information is now being collected, we would like to
know where we might have access to it.

Again, thank you for your assistence in the past. We are
looking forward to a continuation of mutually beneficial efforts in the
use of this data bank.

Yours truly,

Collier B. Gladin
Planning Director
