Dear Mayor Allen:
Pursuant to your request that I outline the sequences
of events necessary to accomplish the proposals set forth
by the Citizens of Peyton - Utoy Forest Community, the follow-
ing comments are submitted:
Li
2.
The plan, as submitted, contemplates making available
250 acres for development for residential purposes
for Negroes. This would require the rezoning of at
least a major part of the tract marked (3) which
consists of approximately ninety (90) acres, presently
zoned for M-2 (Industrial) purposes.
It would appear that at this time the Zoning Committee
should be apprised of the necessity of the rezoning
of the subject tract and possibly a few other minor
zoning changes that will be necessary in order to
determine their feeling toward this proposal and the
plan in general.
The next step would appear to confer with the owners
of tracts 1, 2 and 3, to determine their willingness
to cooperate with the general plan.
Determine who and in what manner properties indicated
in green, which will provide the buffer areas, will be
dedicated or acquired.
Determine the exact position that Harlan Road and Peyton
Road will be closed so as to insure that the purposes
of the plan will be accomplished.
Accomplish necessary rezonings.
Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. October 9, 1962

Atlanta, Georgia
6. Close Peyton Road and Harlan Road.
There will arise from time to time many other problems and
details that will have to be solved as they present themselves.
I do believe, however, that the above sequence will be necessary
in order to get started.
Yours very truly,
Planning Engineer
