Re:
Dear Dan:
Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council
I appreciate the time which you and George Berry took to sit
down and discuss the activities of the Youth Council. I want you to have
a summary of the conclusions as a result of the meeting and which I will
convey to Lewis Bankins, the Acting Director of the Council, as well as
to the permanent Director of the Council when he is named.
First, I concluded that the supervision of the Executive Director,
the initiation of Council activities, and the approval of policies and programs
suggested by the Director would continue to come from the Board of Directors
of the Council.
Second, I concluded that the Executive Director of the Council
should be also subject to the direction and supervision of the Mayor's Chief
of Staff and should attend staff meetings of Mayor Office personnel and keep
the Chief Administrator in the Mayor's Office apprised of what the Council is
doing as well as being available and subject to the supervision and direction
of that person to do special tasks assigned by him in the area of children and
youth.
lam
not clear how this will be shown on the organization charts, but
Ido know that working relationships are more important than organizational
lines of responsibility. Il would hope that the result would be that you would
gain a valuable
assistant and the Council would gain a valuable affiliation. Please
let me know if you object to my instructing Lewis Wlnkins or his successor on
the basis of these conclusions.
