ROBERT L, SOMMERVILLE
CHAIRMAN
WILLIAM S. HOWLAND
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
MRS. EVELYN DODDS
SECRETARY
November 17, 1967
Dear Executive Committee Member -
I feel sure that all of us agree with The Constitution's editorial today which said -
"Yesterday's announcement that Atlanta had been approved for a model
cities planning grant is an event of major importance, It gives Atlanta what
is potentially the most powerful tool it has ever used to reverse urban decay
and to serve a changing population,
"Atlanta's selection is at once a reward and a challenge."
Since our committee has been an ardent supporter of the Model City Program
from its inception, I have asked Dan E, Sweat, the city's Director of Govern-
mental Liaison, to brief us on the program's present status and future
potential at our meeting at 2 p.m., Tuesday, November 21, in the Directors
Room, Fulton Federal Savings and Loan Building.
Sincerely,
(ty Carta,
William S. Howland
