MEMORANDUM TO: Méyor Allen

Re. the attached, pertaining to item Z-07-33G on Zoning Committee
agenda April 6, 1967.

This is a 20 acre tract off Brown's Mill Road (west side), South
of property fronting on Oak Drive and west of the property fronting on
Brown's Mill Road and is the eastern most portion of a much larger tract
now zoned M-1.

The prorerty is owned by Lee P, Fore who is anxious to have it
developed under the 221d(3) coop propram. The Builder is the Atlanta
Building and Development Corporation and the project is being sponsored
by the Foundation for Cooperative Hcusing, a well known national non-
profit organization; the same one which sponsored Kastwych Village and
Cambridge Square, both in DeKalb Ccunty.

Application for rezoning was filed February 27. The Planning Board
recommendation Merch 15, was favorable,

It appears that people in the general neighborhood did not under-
stand that the development proposed is for nice town houses for sale
and not for cheap rental apartments. Under this plan the units are
pre-sold from samples to be constructed on the site by the sponsor,
before construction of each stage of the project begins.

Cecil Alexander, Mr. Jim Pilcher (who sat in on the zoning hearing),
tir. Wm. W, Gates (consultant to the Housing Resources Committee) and I
all feel that this proposed development would be appropriate for the
area and is needed in the accelerated housing progran.

Respectfully,
