As can be seen, discrepencies exist in both land lots and acreages
between the Zoning Map Analysis and the Ap~endix.
This may be accounted for
by zoning changes and _new· developments which have taken place since the
compilation shown in the Appendix.
However, this reduces the dependency which
can be placed now on the compilation of figures sho-~m in the Appendix.

Vacant areas zoned A-L (understood to be generally f or a specifically

The vacant land in both categories is relatively small
however.

In a:ny event, from the attached comparison, it is quite obvious that the

HOUSING RESOURCES COMMITTEE

Comparison of July 5 Analysis by HRC from Zoning Map and
Appendix to July 21 Memo. from Planning Department

Zoning Map was revised April 31, 1957.

Appendix was compiled as of January 1966.

As can be seen, discrepencies exist in both land lots and acreages
between the Zoning Map Analysis and the Appendix, This may be accounted for
by zoning changes and_new developments which have taken place since the
compilation shown in the Appendix. However, this reduces the dependency which
can be placed now on the compilation of figures showm in the Appendix.

See Summary at end of the attached Comparative Tabulations for acreages
already committed; turned down or rejected; and planned for other uses.

Vacant areas zoned A-L (understood to be generally for a specifically
planned development) and A=2 (not generally accepted locally as suitable for
low-cost housing, except for the Elderly) have not been generally included
in this comparison. The vacant land in both categories is relatively small
however » |

CONCLUSION:

in any event, from the attached comparison, it is quite obvious that the
land currently zoned A-1 is both inadequate in quantity and unequitably

distributed throughout the City to meet requirements of the low-income housing

program.

Tad used in the Housing Resources Committee analysis was
scale of 2,000 feet to the inch and the maps used in the data
ing analysis were at a scaie of 400 feet to the inch. Due to

small maps at a scale of 2,000 feet to the inch, accurate measurement

is dificult, and, additionally, only large parcels can be showa.

at 400 scale, more accurate representation and measurement are possible.

The Chairman recognized the presence of both Co-Chairmcon, Ur. Atwood and
Ute Mays °
Mr. Gladin, Planning Engineer, was then called upon to comment on the
Land. Use Study being proposed by the Plannin; Department and the report
previously provided this Committee on Zoned acreages of vacant land.

Mr. Gladin instead passed out several copies of a new report which he
had prepared to the Housing i‘iesources Committee provosing certain solutions
to the critical housing shortaze and commented on it briefly. At the conclusion
he asked for the assistance from the Housing esources Committee of its one
permanent staff member to assist the Planning Jepartment in developing a
joint plan, with detailed implementation steps, for presentation at the joint
meeting of the Planning and Development Committee and the Housing itesources
Committee (now scheduled for Sestember 15). Uopies of Mr. Gladin's report
are attached (Encl. 2). Mr. Alexander offered Mr, Jones! services.

Mr. Alexander then introduced Mr, William &amp;. Hirshson, Executive irector,
Greater Hartford Housin; Jevelopment “und Inc. lir. Hirshson was the guest
speaker anc presented a very interesting impromptu report on his experiences
in the formation and operation of Hartford's Non-profit Housing Vevelopment
Corp. The followins is some of what Mr. Nirshson had to say:

General

Hartford consists of 18 square miles, has a population of 160,000 and
needs 6,000 low-income dwelling units, of which 5,000 are now substandard.
There are only 90-10. acres of vacant land in the city and few large housing
developments, but many of 16-32 units.

The Greatcr Hartford area consists of 29 separate municipalities or
communities of which only four have approved Workable Prozrams.

The corooration has developed a pre-processed reusuable package for
assistance and guidance of developers. This packase has basic designs for
two and three bedroom units. $2,00C to $3,000 per project is usually
sufficient to test proposed project's practibility.

The corporation has not gone deeply into rehabilitation. It has thus
far rehabilitated two units under 221 d (3) and purchased 12 zroup units.
221 (h) has not been popular because cannot find suitable areas in which to
work.

The Greater Hartford Housing Develonment Func, Inc. is sponsored by the
Hartford Chamber of Commerce. Funds to finance the corvoration were obtained
from 26 of the major firms in the erea in the sum of $1,500,000 ($700,000
in cash and the balance in commitments.) These funds were obtained through
personal solicitationas loans from life insurance companies, banks and major
industries.

The corporation is nonprofit, organized to lend seed money on a revolvins
basis anc to provide technical skill on a consulting basic to sponsors of
rental units for low-income families. Efforts however are not limited to
nonprofit organizetions.
Specific

After the corporation was organizcd arrangements were made to borrow
on a maximum line of credit of $700,000, secured by 10 year notes, with
interest up to 6 percent, payable asavailable. Only $350,000 of this amount
has been actually drawn to date. In lieu of interest, surplus is returned
to lenders, as funds are accumulated as authorized by the directors, in
lump sum amounts.

Uses

The Housing Jevelopment Fuid, Inc. operates in the capital region
including Hartford and five of the surrounding suburbs. The revolvinz fund
is used primarily for:

1. Seed money loans to other local nonprofit croups.

2. Land banking--accumulating land for future development for low-cost
housing. To be resold at no mark up.

e kehabilitation of larrze homes for larze familics.

- Providing talent and technical assistance to nonprofit groups.

At the conclusion of Mr. Hirshson's talk, Mr. Alexander then introduced
Mr. Tom Lord, Assistant Director Nonprofit Housing Center,Urban America, Inc.,
which organization sponsored and underwrote Mr. ifirshson's trip to itlanta.

Mr. Lore explained that Urban fimerica is a national, nonprofit organization
headquartered in Washington, D.C., anv is dedicated to improving housing for
low-income people in the nation's cities.

The Nonprofit Housing Center of Urban America provides technical assistance
to nonprofit sponsors of lower income housing anc helps communities organize
revolving funds and nonprofit housing development corporations. The Center is
financed by the Ford Foundation, the Episcopal, Methodist, United Presbyterian

Urban America does not ooerate on a fee basis and always endeavors to
keep local people involved. It, attempts to adapt to local conditions and assist
in bringing public and private interests tozether in a joint action to secure
inprovement in housing for low income people. He also announced that
Mr. W. W. Gates, Consultant to the Housing %esources Committee, is Urban
America's representative in Atlanta.

Other Items

As time was growing short, Mr. Alexander then asked Mr. Jones to simply pass
out to the members of the Committee (without comment) a self-explanatory report
dated August 9, 1967 (Encl. 1) prepared by the Housing Resources Committee staff
pertaining to the "Preliminary Report (from the Planning vepartment)--Amount
of Vacant Land in the City by Zoning District," dated July 21, 1967. Also
attached was a comparison, prepared by the Housing Resources Committee staff,
between the Analysis by HiC of the Zonin;: Map previously proviced the Hnc by
the Plannine Department and the tabulations contained in Ap»endix to July 21
Memorancum from the Planning vJepartment.

Time did not permit detailed considoration anc. discussion in the meetins
of this report which was designed to serve as a basis for conclusions and
recommendations of the Housing sesources Committee for its proposed mec ting
in the near future with the Planning anc Jevelopment Committee of the Board
of Aldermen.

Mr. Alexander then amnounced that the Housins siesources Committee had been
requested by respective developers of three rather large tracts to support
then before the Joint Planning Board and the Zoning Committee of the Boar« of
Aldermen to get those properties re-zoned to A-l. Mr. Alexander called upon
Mr. Jones to explain each site to the Comittee.

Mr. Jones pointed out the locations of the three sites on the map and
explained the proposed development of cach. (Two with plats and tentative
site layouts).

After Mr. Jones! presentation of the three »roposals, Mr, Alexander called
upon Mrs, Xernona Clayton, American Friends Service Committee, for comment
on any of the proposals and whether they woulc complicate the work being done
in the southwest areca by SWAP. Mrs. Clayton explained SWAP's purpose and.
operation in the Beacher—Cascade—wWest Gordon Roac and Fairburn Road area south
to Sewell Hoad, She offered no objection to any of the proposed projects.

Site ilo. 1. 51 acre tract north of Brownville Road between Jackson Parkway

HOUSING RESOURCES COMMITTEE
Room 120), City Hall
August 2h, 1967

 

Mr. Ivery Simmons, President
Simmons Construction Company
629 F Street, Ne We
Washington, D. C.

Dear Mr. Simmons:

Your letter of August 8, 1967 to Mayor Ivan Allen has been referred to this
Committee.

We appreciate your interest in being willing to participate in rehabilitation
of substandard residential property in depressed neighborhoods, particularly your
proposal to hire unskilled and unemployed people living in these areas.

Atlanta is anticipating going into the execution phase soon on our large
Bedford-Pine Urban Renewal. project and hope to be selected as one of the cities to
participate in the Model City's program with an area of approximately 3,000 acres.
These projects have not yet been funded. We anticipate considerable rehabilitation
in each of these areas, however most of it will be done by the existing property
owners with Federal assistance in the form of grants and low interest loans.

Title to these properties will in general remain with the present owners.

There are other large areas in the City, however, with considerable substandard
property, both residential and commercial, with a considerable number of
individual structures being condemmed under the housing code. In the opinion of
this Committee these areas offer excellent opportunity for improvement under the
221 (h) rehabilitation program by nonprofit organizations or under the Builder-
Seller provisions of the 221 d (3) program.

If you should be interested in coming to Atlanta to look over the situation

firsthand with view te possible participation in our rehabilitation needs, I shall
be glad to arrange an appointment at a time that will be mutually agreeable.

Very truly yours,

Malcolm D. Jones
Supervisor of Inspection Services

MDJ/s11.

YJ.r. Alexander then introduced Mr. William R. Hirshson, Executive .Ji.rector,
Greater Hartford t{ousin·; .:Jevelopment . "und
.
Inc. Nr. Hirshson was the guest
speaker and presented a very interestin::i; i ~9rom1Jtu report on his experiences
in the f orm.;.t ion 0-Ucl operation of Hartford I s i\Jon-profi t Hous ing Development
Corp. The follo1-ri.n1 is some of what Hr. T:firshson ha.d to say :

General
Hartford consists of 18 square miles , has a population of 160,000 and
needs 6, 000 low-income dwellinG uni ts, of which 5,000 are now substandard.•
There are only 90-10( acres of vacant land in the city and few l arge housing
developments, but many of 16-32 units.
The Great er Hartford area consists of 29 separate municipalities or
communities of which only f our have approved Workable Pro[;rams.
The corporation has developed a pre-processed reusuable package for
assistance and guidan ce of developers. This p:1ckar:;e has basic designs for
two and three !)edroJm units. ~2,00(' to $3,000 per project is usually
sufficient to test proposed. project's practibility .
The corporation has not gone deepl y into rehabilitation . It has thus
far rehabilitated two units under 221 d (3) and purchased 12 group units.
221 (h) has not been popular because cannot find suitable areas in which to
work.
The Greater Hartford Housin~ Develo~ment Fund, Inc. is snonsored by the
Hartford Chamber of Commerce. Funds to finance the corporation were obtained
from 26 of the major firms in the 2.rea in the sum of $1,SOO,OOO ( $700,000
in cash and the balance in coillil1i tmenta. ) These funcls were obtained throu.-,;h
personal solicitation as loans .from life insurnncE' companies, banks and major
industries.
The corporation is nonprofit, organized to lend seed money on a revolvinG
basis and to provide technical skill on a consulting basic to s ponsors of
rental units for low- income families. Efforts however are not limited to
nonprofit organizr,tions o
�3
Speci£~
After the corporation was organized arrangements were made to borrow
on a maximum line of credit of $700 ,000, secured. by 10 year notes, with
interest up to 6 percent, payable asavailable. Only $350,000 of this amount
has been actually dra~m to date, In lieu of interest, surplus is returned
to lenders, as funds are accwnulated as authorized by the d:i.rectors., in
lUiilp sum amounts.

General

Hartford consists of 18 square miles, has a popvlation of 160,000 and
needs 6,000 low-income dwelling; units, of which 5,000 are now substandard.
There are only 90-10 acres of vacant land in the city and few large housing
developments, but many of 16-32 units.

The Greatcr Hartford area consists of 29 separate municipalities or
communities of which only four have approved Workable Prozrams.

The corooration has developed a pre-processed reusuable package for
assistance and guidance of developers. This packaze has basic designs for
two and three bedroom units. %2,00C to $3,000 per project is usually
sufficient to test proposed project's practibility.

The corporation has not gone deeply into rehabilitation. It has thus
far rehabilitated two units under 221 d (3) and purchased 12 group units.
221 (h) has not been popular because cannot find suitable areas in which to
work.

The Greater Hartford Housing Development fund, Inc. is svonsored by the
Hartford Chamber of Commerce. Funds to finance the corporation were obtained
from 26 of the major firms in the area in the sum of $1,500,000 ($700,000
in cash and the balance in commitments.) These funds were obtained through
personal solicitation as loans from life insurance companies, banks and major
industries.

The corporation is nonprofit, organized to lend seed money on a revolving
basis and to provide technical skill on a consulting basic to sponsors of
rental units for low-income families. Efforts however are not limited to
nonprofit organiz«tions.
Specific

After the corporation was organized arrangements were made to borrow
on a maximum line of credit of $700,000, secured by 10 year notes, with
interest up to 6 percent, payable asavailable. Only $350,000 of this amount
has been actually drawn to date. In lieu of interest, surplus is returned
to lenders, as funds are accumulated as authorized by the directors, in
lump sum amounts.

After Mr, Jones' presentation of the three »roposals, Mr. Alexander called

B.
Proposed locations for low cost housing are being coordinated with the Planning Dept • ., for adequacy of Community Facilities., existing or proposed. ·
Proposals are aiso reviewed periodically with the School Dept. for adequacy of school facilities.
c.
The Foundation for Cooperative Housing, which developed Eastwych Village and Cambridge Square (both in DeKalb County), now has full time representative
in Atlanta and is seeking clients. They are sponsoring the 200 unit London Towne Houses development in Atlanta (Item F-5).
D.
In view of difficulties encountered in zoning and getting other approvals on sites proposed for large multi-family developments, it is apparent that the
low-income housing program will have to lean heavily on Developers and Builders .providing a substantial portion of the program on small scattered ·sites.
Thus far., 486 single family houses (Item F-12) and 1,665 units in duplexes and relatively small apar~ment developments, under conventional financing.,
are in this category.

The Foundation for Cooperative Housing, which developed Eastwych Village and Cambridge Square (both in DeKalb County), now has full time representative

in Atlanta and is seeking clients. Theyare sponsoring the 200 unit London Towne Houses development in Atlanta (Item F-5).

In view of difficulties encountered in zoning and getting other approvals on sites proposed for large multi-family developments, it is apparent that the
low-income housing program will have to lean heavily on Developers and Builders providing a substantial portion of the program on small scattered sites.
Thus far, 86 single family houses (Item F-12) and 1,665 units in duplexes and relatively small apartment developments, under conventional financing,
are in this category.

No proposal has yet been made for construction of units (even efficiency or 1 bedroom) to rent or sell for as low as $50.00 per month. The City's
greatest need is in the $30.00 - $50.00 per month-rental purchase range.

Attorney Blackwell in Decatur has proposed a concrete 3 bedroom, 1 bath, 1,000 sq. ft. house which he clains can sell for $6,000, plus land costs, incl.
heating and air conditioning equipment. :

National Homes Corp. of Lafayette, Inc. placed on the market Feb. 1, 1967, a 800 - 900 S.F. (0.S. dimensions) 3 bedroom, prefabricated, preassembled ~
panel, single family house plus a 96 S.F. (1I.S. dimensions) storage building manufactured by Arrow Metal Products Corp, to sell under FHA 221 (d) (2).
Price includes plumbing, electrical, heating unit, stove &amp; refrigerator. House can be completely assembled in 85 man hours; 53 of these (with
conventional plumbing) are being erected (pre-sold) in the Thomasville Urban Renewal Area. Approx. 800 sq. ft. house is priced at $12,200, 900 sqe fte
house is priced at $12,600. Adrian Homes Corp. has proposed a prefab to retail for about $7,500 plus land, foundation, closing and possibly tapping fees
(See Item C-10 for others).

Saul Gray is a partner in a Corporation which owns 280 new units off Bankhead at Elbridge St., which he wants to sell, + a potential development on the
site for 512 additional units. Area is already zoned A-l,

Rehabilitation by Housing Code Division of Building Department on Boulevard in Bedford-Pine U. R. Project (apsroximately 700 units involved) commenced
February 1. The U. R. project is still in survey and planning stage. A list is available in Housing Resources Committee office of 103 units on
Boulevard which the owners stated they wish to sell, rather than rehabilitate. This list has been made available to the H.A. and to a National
concern interested in developing a Rehabilitation Demonstration project in that area.

Ralph L. Dickey of Atlanta has proposed a non-profit revolving fund enterprise to acquire substandard housing, renovate it and resell, primarily
through private enterprise.

Information is welcomed as to changes, additions or deletions in material contained in this report. (Call 522-63, Ext. 30).

Mr. Dale Clark, Chairman, Public Information Panel
Mr. Malcolm D. Jones, Director
Also present at the meeting were:
Mr. William S. Holland, Executive Director, CACUR
· Mr.· Lester A. Persells, Associate Executive Director, Housing Authority
Mr. Alexander opened the meeting with comments pertaining to the program and
then called on Mr . Jones to present the current status report of the program.
Mr. Jones stated that his office was in the process of retyping the low•
income housing inventory report but had only the summary ready for this meeting
(Item 2 on the agenda and document 2 in the folder which had been presented
to Executive Group members). He explained that included in the inventory
are apartment units bei~ developed under conventional financing which tlo not
cost more than $10,000 per unit to construct, $12,000 for each side of a du)lex
and $1S,OOO for a single family house. He eA-plainecl that the last page of the
summary contains notes, s:, me of which are especially significant. He explained
that Item A of the notes gives a comparison of the status of the program on
August 31, as compared with the previous report of June 28 and stated that on
the whole we hnve lost ground in this program since the previous report two
months ago.
�2
He then called attention to the extract from the CIP report pertaining
to low-income housing requirements (Item 3 on the agenda and in the folder).
He also pointed out t hat we are not really building low-cost housing in public
housing but low-income housing .
He also explained Item 4(a) on the a genda and the correspondin:; document
in the folder passed out to Committee members, pertaining to available land
suitably zoned for the low-income housing program.
At this point Mr. Alexander explained that Mr. Jones' office was understaff ed to handle the statistical data required by the CIP and proposed that
f rom here on out when someone GOes to the Building Department for a permit
we should try to r,et the Per1ut Desk to list what the rent on the units will
be and number of bedrooms per unit; th2.t ther e is no way we can require this
legally; and that another thing that we need to clo is to also go back to the
developers now in_ the program and get more specific information on their plans.
He proposed for this purpose that the City provide a Clerk to the Committee
f or not less than 3 months. He stated that he felt the structures beins built
are reasonably r;ood and that his fe elin::s ar e that a gr eat deal more int eres t
should be put in the lowest r ental-purchase ran~es ; that we can get more in
that price r ange f rom the prefabricat ed housing; th2.t the carrying charges on
these per month i s important and we should find out what it is; that to meet
the r eally tough part of the program m6ans going to the City for additional
hel p . He als o asked for comments f rom members of the Coilll'ilittee.
Mr . Clnrk s ai d he would sup~'.)ort a s k in,~ f or more help; that he als o s aw
a news repor t f or housing t hat woul d r ent f or $50 t o ~&gt;70 per month, under the
Farmers Associa tion program; t hat i t i s in DeKalb County , and is called City
Line .
Mr . Alexander stated that is a good start to ~et low.cost housing in the
counties .
Another member stat ed that the Farmers Association pro,::ram is als o a
part of the FHA program.
~.lr .
PaJ.mcr inquired as to the def init ion of low-cost hous ing, .
Mr. Jone s replied that it i s essentially a matter of interpr et a t i on ,
Mr. Alexander st ated tha t is was from $0 to ~55 per mont h .
Mr. Palmer cormnent ed "And t hey want l ow- i ncome housi ne built under privat e
enterprise?"
Mr. Alexander replied it is thought of now primarily as a Turnkey
development.
Mr. Jones added 11 And even Rent Supplement".
�3
Mr. Alexander again pro_p osed askin(~ the City f or a Clerk and developing
a form for the- Building Department to get fille d out at the time permits are
obtained and. ctated that we will have to talk to Mr. Wofford about that.
A motion was made that the matter be lef t in Mr. Jones' hands , Y.tr. Yates
seconded it.- The matter was dropqed there.
Mr, Alexander then explained that the roll of this Committee in zoning
matters is not an open and shut case as to how to make reconnnendations to
the Boo.rd of Aldermen; that we have been taking this on as n extracurricular
roll to a 1,sist the developers in this progrrun; t hat this has been done i n
several instances, but no members of this Committee have been asked to co
around looking at these s ites to r e commend. thos e which we cons ider reasonable.
Mr. Jones explained. that this is what he and Mr. Gates have been atteml)ting
to do; that they have been out with the s-,:)Onsors and actually looked at most
of tho sites anc.t have only listed and. encouraged thos e which they felt were
pr actical and desirable, t hat in a several ins tances they have di scourai cd
sponsors f rom submittin0 s ites which they f elt were impr~cticable or unsuitable .
Hr. Alexander continued t hat hie feel :LnG i s that we s hould t ry t o ai d and
assist the builder s i n this progr am but that we hnve no p or"'7er t o cha116 e what
is going on and that we a.r e hnvin:~ our pr o )Osal s turned down one by one f or
various reasons. He stated that the approach which he felt we s hould t ake i s
to issue a general s t at ement about t he housing progr am, i t s needs, and the
shor t a~e of land. that is now suitabl y zoneG and t o work towar d gettin;-~ a
rezoning of the ent ire City, with due consideration f or l ow-i n come housing
needs; that as for working with t he developers we should be governed by what
wo sec is a cceptabl e t o the Board of Aldermen and t ho Building De~art ment i n
granting permits; and fur ther t o come to some conclusion about the problems.
He stated that we should also hel p the developers arrange meetings with the
Aldermen, Departments involved and anyone who want s to talk to them about
deficiencies in Community Facil ities relat ed t o t he housing program, which in
some instances have been lcgimat c , such as parks , transportation, traffic,
schools etc. He further stated that at t he same time the ur 6ency of this
program has seemed to es cape some ;)eople; that one thing which we also need is
to emphasize the requirement for additional low-income housing in the neighboring
cities and counties and make it clear that we are not trying to creat e a haven
here in Atlanta for the whol e country to come to and move in on t his program;
tha t this may happen, but we should try t o avoi,1. it. He stated that the CIP
requirement is for repl acement of houses and apartments that are unfit for
human habitation. He then called upon Mr. Jones for comments.
Mr. Jones stated he feels t hat it we do not take a position to actively
sup::iort the c:'.evelopers who have proposedgood projects and which apIJear~ reasonable,
he di d not know who would; that he was personally inclined to fe el that we can do
a service if we 'as'"a Committee take a ')Osition on such proj ects; that he docs not
think however t hat mnny are;is will be built in the City which already have
a surplus of community facilities; that he has hopec. that we can sup;)ly
facilities such as parks, schools, playgrounds etc. simultaneous with the development
of the housing pr oj ects, by r elying on other Agencies and other Department s ;
�4
that those deta.ils should be checked into carefully and coordination made to
provide these services as adequately as we ca1i . · He said th2.t he felt personally
that a statement from the Housing itesources Cammi ttee on each of the proj ects
proposed f or low-income housing would be helpful to the Planning Boa:.· d and. the
Zoning Committee when they make their decisions. He pointed out difficulties
which we have had in gettine sites approved up to that point and ffi~)lainecl
that he and Hr. Gates (the Committee Consultant) have attempted to look at
each proposed site but have been unable to follow through on all details such
a s checking on the adequacy of community facilities etc.; that in several
instances he and Mr. Gates have discourni~ed s ponsors for this reason or that;
such as ground too rough, facilities not availabl e etc. and that as a result,
sever al of the sites originally propos ed have nev8r come up for rezoning. · He
further stated that he was inclined to feel that on those prooosals for Turnkey
development that it would ev2n be W:?11 for the Planning Board and the Zoning
Committee to know whether or not the Housing Authority considered the sites
as favor able and suitabl e .
One member commented that perhaps the whole City needs to be rezoned.
Mr. Alexander replied it seemed to him that we must create additional
land through purchases for the city - wide avproa ch; that when the indivi dual
developer canes along, there s hould be a body looking to the interest of the
whole city and it ap;)eared to him that these things have thus far been
consider ed only by the Board of Aldermen; that he wonders whether t his is
doing the program the best service? He stat ed that consulting with the
Planning Board is als o v cr.J much in order, presumably .
In r eferring to Item 4(a) on the agenda and the corresponding marked
doc1.ll7lent in the fol der, Dr . Hender s on inquired i f this material i s wha t his
Committee had asked for ?


tvlr. Jones s t ated that this is Phat the Planning Department pr ovided i n


response to hi s panel' s request; th.it when i.e got it, it came in t wo f orms:
a zoni ng map of the Cit~, wi th vacant lancl ar eas super impos ed on it i n orange;
and a re,ort of total l and in tho various zoni ng cat aeories and vacant l and
by Land Lot and Dis t ri ct.
Mr . Jones f urther expl ained t hat t he Planning fupart ment i s now maki ng
a comprehensive Land-Use s tudy to go before the Board of Aldermen with come
propos ed changes in t he overall land-use of the Cit y; t hat he fel t the best
thin:; t his Cammi ttee coul d do now is to 1.:;ct its r 0, commendat i ons presented t o
the Planning and Development Commit tee; that we have a Joi nt Meeting scheduled
for the 29th of September.
Mr. Alexander then told Dr . Henderson that hes hould meet with Mr. Jones
to go over the material provided by the Planning Department, but that in trying
to resolve this thing we are still short on land and t hose two should cane
up with a proposal, say in September, as to the number of acres needed and its
distribution.
Dr. Henderson asked approximately how many acres does that involve?
�5
Mr. Jones replied that the maximwn ci.ensity authorized for garden type
,:·.partments is 16 units per acre, but that the Housing Authority has been tr,fing
to hold that down to about 12 units per acre.
Mr. Pcrsells stated that was corre ct; that 3, h, and 5 bedroom units, which
the Hous ing Author ity particularly needs, r esults in r eduction of the density
tclow 16 units per a cre.
Mr. Jones explained we had one proj ect which has been approved by FHA at
16 units per acre , but it is in nn Urban Renewal project; that we had a developer
recently drop a project bec~use he had bought the land expecting to develope it
at the maxinum authorized dens ity of 16 units per a cre and that i n preliminary
discussions, FHA suggested 10 units per acre.
Mr. Alexander s t ated that it is open to debat e about how many total acres
would be required.; -that our experience to dat e indi cates that no more than
1/3 of t he l and appropriately zoned actually gets into the low-income housing
program, due to turnd.mms by HUD, FHA, nei ghborhoods etc. ; that to date only
about 1/3 of the land zoned has found its way into this program.


Mr. Alexander stated that there ap) ears to be a need to rezone the City


at large ; that there wer e 51 zoning petitions on the agenda recently for one


';.ec':-i ng of the Planning Board.


V.tr . Jones expl ained that the current z anin5 wa s especially planned for
indus try; that many areas wer e orieinall y pl anned but never us ed as industrial,
1-,:-D.ch development will not occur in the f orsceable futur e , and that the same
applies to much of t he land now zoned r esidential ( s ingl e fam ily development)
whereas t ho immediat e need of the City now i s f or low-income multi-family
housing.
Mr. Persell s expl ained that the Housing Author i ty has gone ba ck over the
lan&lt;l to cons ~.der additi onal parcel s which could be used f or the low-income housing
c~tegoriJ where ch,u1gcs seem to be reasonabl e .













Mr. Alexander stated the builders have claimed that FHA procedures were
holdinG them up; that Atlanta i s one of the City ' s in which FHA now claims that
it can process an applicat ion in l ess t han 2 weeks; that this is a change in
attitude, but the 221 d ( 3) pr ogram does not come within the direct line of
FHA 1 s principal insuring policy .
Mr. Alexander asked Mr. Clark if the report prepared by Mr. Gates on the
accelernted procedure for multi-family processing by FHA could be carried to
the press (Item 6 on the agenda., ·w ith co-: &gt;i es in the folders) Mr. Clark indicated
that it would probably be better for this type of announcement to be made by
the local FHA office rather than f rom this Committee.
�6
Mr. Alexander then referred to Item 7 on the agenda pertaining to the
proposal in the fl.ent Supplement program to require nonprofit sponsors to put
up 5%equity (in effect a donation); that the reason the attempt to put this
thing in, is the theOI'iJ that if nonprofit sponsors 2re financially inm lved
in the success of their project that they will hD.ve more permanent interest
in it; that Urban AmGrica's feeling is, if this is done the Rent Supplement
program will die before it gets an opportunity to grow; and Urban America has
suGgested that those interested send telegrams to their Senators and to
Senator Warren Magnuson sugGesting tlkct this approach of re~uiring the 5%
equity will defeat the purpose of the program; that what he would like to do
is to eet an authorization from the Committee to sign a t 8l egram in support of
this position and to urge cons idercJ.tion of this matter in the final preparation
of the bill.
A motion was made by Mr .. Palmer, s econded and unanimously c1.dopt ed asking
Mr. Alexander to sen&lt;.J. such telogrruns to appropriate Sen&lt;'..tors. ·
Mr. Clark asked if the .5%o.onation i s a known step or a new development.
Mr. Alexander s t at ed that it i s
nonprofit, spons or i s not sup-: iosed to
and it is asking too much of him to
Mr. Alexancler also s aid that to gi ve
nonprof it proj e cts one can borrow up
is what you are compe ting with, in a
new; that t he thinking i s tha t t he
be gct t in~ any prof it back f rom t he proj e c.t
put up 5%equity ~onation to the proj e ct. ·
the other si d.P. of it is, that in 221 d (3)
to a 102% of the proj ect coat and this
sense .
Mr . Per s ells asked Mr •. Alexander to expl ain t he 102~Z•.
Mr . Alexander explained what the extra 2'1, t akes care of •.
~-





Mr . Alexander again asked for and recei ved unanimous consent to r eques t
the City for a Cl.er k f or a t l eas t 3 months .
Mr . Alexander then called f or br i ef repor t s from the Panel Chairmen. Legal Panel - Mr. Archer Smith made a ver y int er es t ine pr e sent ation of
his case s tudy and t he s i gnificance of the Shaffer vs . City of Atlant a Housing
Code Case , whi ch he announced was corning up f or hearing the next day.
Constr ucti on and Design Panel - As no one was pr esent to r epr esent t his
pnnel, Mr. Alexa..11der ex.pl ained a proj e ct which tha t panel was working on
i nvolving Bui l ding Codes and a Syst em s tudy. ,
Finance and Nonprofi t Funds Panel - Mr. Alexander expl ai ned t h8.t t his
panel is working on creat ion of a Nonprofit Housing Development Corporation • .
He als o menti oned the f avorable comments made at the Urban America Seminar
by n local banker pertaining to loans made t hrough his bank to sponsors of
nonprof it proj ects.
�7
Business Participation Panel - r1r. Alexander commented briefly on his
recent conference in Washington with Secretary Weaver and FHA Administrator,
Brownstein, pertaining to bringing "Big Business" into the low-income housing
field.
Public Information Panel - Mr. Clark commented on the ill-fated Browntmm
Road rezoning at tempt and to a nonprof it sponsor project which is being promoted
locally by the Interfaith Group of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation.
Social Problems Panel - fuan Jacksor.. explained that the avera2;e annunl
income for Negroes in Atlanta is $3600 and that the number one question is the
adequacy of the number of bedrooms in rental units.
Mr. Alexander then called on Mr. David T. Edwards, sponsor of a rezoning
petition f or an 18 acre site on the West side of Atlanta , i'Jorth of Bakers
Ferry Road, s. W. (-IJ, 2h, 14th Dist. FF) to present his proposal ( one of three
in Item 5 on the agenda). ¥1r. Edwards made a good and convincing presentation.
From questions a sked md comments made by some member s of the Committee , the
Committee appeared receptive to Mr. Edwards' proposal. Formal action by the
Committee however was not called for by the Chairman to endorse this proj ect
to the Zoning Committe e , as had previously been re quc oted by Mr. Edwards,
as well as similar requests from sponsors of two other projects which the Committe e
had previously endorsed to the Planning Board. This was for r easons explained
earlier in the me eting. Subsequently however, the Chairman of the Planning
Boclrd was reque s t ed to pass on to the Zoning Connnittee , with the Plnnning
Boards' recommendations, a letter which had previously been written by the
Commi ttee to the Planning Board endorsing those t wo proj ects.
The mee ting was adjorned at 12 noon.

Also present at the meeting were:

Mr. William S. Holland, Executive Director, CACUR
Mr. Lester A. Persells, Associate Executive Director, Housing Authority

Mr. Alexander opened the meeting with comments pertaining to the program and
then called on Mr. Jones to present the current status report of the program,

Mr. Jones stated that his office was in the process of retyping the lowe
income housing inventory report but had only the summary ready for this meeting
(Item 2 on the agenda and document 2 in the folder which had been presented
to Executive Group members). He explained that included in the inventory
are apartment units beinz developed under conventional financing which do not
cost more than $10,000 per unit to construct, $12,000 for each side of a duplex
and $15,000 for a single family house. He explained that the last page of the
summary contains notes, some of which are especially significant. He explained
that Item A of the notes gives a comparison of the status of the program on
August 31, as compared with the previous report of June 28 and stated that on
the whole we have lost ground in this program since the previous report two
months ago.
He then called attention to the extract from the CIP report pertaining
to low-income housing recuirements (Item 3 on the agenda and in the folder).
He also pointed out that we are not really building low-cost housing in public
housing but low-income housing.

He also explained Item (a) on the agenda and the correspondin’; document
in the folder passed out to Committee members, pertaining to available land
suitably zoned for the low-income housing program.

At this point Mr. Alexander explained that Mr. Jones' office was under-
staffed to handle the statistical data recuired by the CIP and proposed that
from here on out when someone goes to the Building Department for a permit
we should try to set the Permit Desk to list what the rent on the units will
be and number of bedrooms per unit; that there is no way we can require this
legally; and that another thing that we need to do is to also go back to the
developers now in the program and get more specific information on their plans.
He proposed for this purpose that the City provide a Clerk to the Committee
for not less than 3 months. He stated that he felt the structures being built
are reasonably good and that his feelin::s are that a great deal more interest
should be put in the lowest rental-purchase ranges; that we can get more in
that price range from the prefabricated housing; that the carrying charges on
these per month is important and we should find out what it is; that to meet
the really tough part of the program means going to the City for additional
help. He also asked for comments from members of the Committee.

Mr. Clark said he would support asking for more help; that he also saw
a news report for housing that wovld rent for 50 to $70 per month, uncer the
Farmers Association program; that it is in DeKalb County, and is called City
Line.

Mr. Alexander stated that is a good start to zet lowecost housing in the
counties.

Another member stated that the Farmers Association prozram is also a
part of the FHA program.

Mr. Palmer inquired as to the definition of low-cost housing? .
Mr. Jones replied that it is essentially a matter of interpretation,
Mr. Alexander stated that is was from $0 to $55 per month,

Mr. Palmer commented "And they want low-income housing built under private
enterprise?"

Mr. Alexander replied it is thought of now primarily as a Turnkey
development.

Mr. Jones added “And even Rent Supplement",
Mr. Alexander again proposed asking the City for a Clerk and developing
a form for the Building Department to get filled out at the time permits are
obtained anc stated that we will have to talk to Mr. Wofford about that.

A motion was made that the matter be left in Mr. Jones! hands, Mr. Yates
seconded it. The matter was dronoed there,

Mr, Alexander then explained that the roll of this Committee in zoning
matters is not an open and shut case as to how to make recommendations to
the Board of Aldermen; that we have been taking this on as a extracurricular
roll to assist the develovers in this program; that this has been cone in
several instances, but no members of this Committee have been asked to go
around looking at these sites to recommend those which we consider reasonable,

Mr. Jones explained that this is what he and Mr. Gates have been attemoting
to do; that they have been out with the s,onsors and actually looked at most
of the sites and have only listed anc encouraged those which they felt were
practical and desirable; that in a several instances they have discouraged
sponsors from submittins sites which they felt were impracticable or unsuitable.

Mr. Alexander continued that his feeling is that we should try to aid and
assist the builders in this program but that we have no power to change what
is going on and that we are having our pro»vosals turned down one by one for
various reasons. He stated that the approach which he felt we should take is
to issue a general statement about the housing program, its needs, and the
shortaze of land that is now suitably zoned and to work toward getting a
rezoning of the entire City, with due consideration for low-income housing
needs; that as for working with the cevelopers we should be governed by what
we see is acceptable to the Board of Aldermen and the Building Department in
granting permits; and further to come to some conclusion about the problems.
He stated that we should also help the developers arrange meetings with the
Aldermen, Departments involved and anyone who wants to talk to them about
deficiencies in Commnity Facilities related to the housing program, which in
some instances have been legimate, such as parks, transportation, traffic,
schools etc. He further stated that at the same time the urgency of this
program has seemed to escape some people; that one thing which we also necd is
to emphasize the requirement for additional low-income housing in the neighboring
cities and countics and make it clear that we are not trying to create a haven
here in Atlanta for the whole country to come to and move in on this program;
that this may happen, but we should try to avoi:! it. He statcd that the CIP
requirement is for replacement of houses and apartments that are unfit for
human habitation. He then called upon Mr. Jones for comments.

Mr. Jones stated he feels that it we do not take a position to actively
sup»ort the cevelopers who have proposed good projects and which apnearg reasonable,
he cid not know who would; that he was personally inclined to feel that we can do
a service if we as a Committee take a »osition on such projects; that he does not
think however that many areas will be built in the City which already have
a surplus of community facilities; that he has hopec that we can supply
facilities such as parks, schools, playgrounds etc. simultaneous with the development
of the housing projects, by relying on other Agencies and other Departments};
that those details should be checked into carefully and coordination made to
provide these services as adequately as we cam. He said that he felt personally
that a statement from the Housing Resources Committee on each of the projects
proposed for low-income housing would be helpful to the Planning Board and the
Zoning Committee when they make their decisions. He pointed out cifficulties
which we have had in getting sites approved up to that point and emlained

that he and Mr. Gates (the Committee Consultant) have attempted to look at

instances he and Mr. Gates have discouraecd syonsors for this reason or that;
such as ground too rough, facilities not available etc. and that as a result,
several of the sites originally proposed have never come up for rezoning. He
further stated that he was inclined to feel that on those provosals for Turnkey
development that it would even be well for the Planning Board and the Zoning
Committee to know whether or not the Housing Authority considered the sites

as favorable and suitable.

One member commented that perhaps the whole City needs to be rezoned.

Mr. Alexander replied it seemed to him that we must create additional
land through purchases for the city-wide approach; that when the individual
developer cancs along, there should be a body looking to the interest of the
whole city and it apneared to him that these things have thus far been
considered only by the Board of Aldermens that he wonders whether this is
doing the program the best service? He stated that consulting with the
Planning Board is also very much in order, presumably.

In referring to Item (a) on the agenda and the corresponding marked
document in the folder, Ur. Henderson inquired if this material is what his
Committee had asked for?

Mr. Jones stated that this is what the Planning Department provided in
response to his panel's request; that when we got it, it came in two forms:
a zoning man of the City with vacant land areas superimposed on it in oranges
and a report of total land in the various zoning catagories and vacant land
by Land Lot and District.

Mr. Jones further explained that the Planning Department is now making
a comprehensive Land-Use study to go before the Board of Aldermen with some
proposed changes in the overall land-use of the City; that he felt the best
thing this Committee could do now is to get its recommendations presented to
the Planning and Development Committec; that we have s Joint Meeting scheduled
for the 29th of September.

Mr. Alexander then told Dr, Henderson that he should meet with Mr. Jones
to go over the material provided by the Planning Department, but that in trying
to resolve this thing we are still short on land and those two should came
up with a proposal, say in September, as to the number of acres needed and its
distribution.

Dr. Henderson asked approximately how many acres does that involve?
Mr. Jones replied that the maximum censity autnorized for garden type
partments is 16 units per acre, but that the Housing Authority has been trying
to hold that down to about 12 units per acre.

Mr. Persells stated that was correct; that 3, , and 5 bedroom units, which
the Housing Authority particularly needs, results in reduction of the density
tolow 16 units per acre.

Mr. Jones explained we had one project which has been approved by FHA at
16 units per acre, but it is in an Urban Renewal project; that we had a developer
recently dropd a project because he had bourht the land expecting to develope it
at the maximum authorized density of 16 units per acre and that in preliminary
discussions, FHA suggested 10 units per acre.

Mr. Alexander stated that it is open to debate about how many total acres
would be required;-that our experience to date indicates that no more than
1/3 of the land appropriately zoned actually gets into the low-income housing
program, due to turndowns by HUD, FHA, neighborhoods etc.; that to date only
about 1/3 of the land zoned has found its way into this program.

Mr. Alexander stated that there apvears to be a need to rezone the City
at large; that there were 51 zoning petitions on the agenda recently for one
neeving of the Planning Board.

Mr. Jones explained that the current zoning was especially planned for
industry; that many areas were originally planned but never used as industrial,
which development will not occur in the forseeable future, and that the same
applies to much of the land now zoned residential (single family development)
whereas the immediate need of the City now is for low-income multi-family
housing.

Mr. Persells explained that the Housing Authority has gone back over the
land to consider additional parcels which could be used for the low-income housing
category where changes seem to be reasonable.

* + *

Mr. Alexander stated the builders have claimed that FHA procedures were
holding them up; that Atlanta is one of the City's in which FHA now claims that
it can process an application in less than 2 weeks; that this is a change in
attitude, but the 221 d (3) program does not come within the direct line of
FHA's principal insuring policy.

Mr. Alexander asked Mr. Clark if the report prepared by Mr. Gates on the
accelerated procedure for multi-family processing by FHA could be carried to
the press (Item 6 on the agenda, with covies in the folders) Mr. Clark indicated
that it would probably be better for this type of announcement to be made by
the local FHA office rather than from this Committee.
Mr. Alexander then referred to Item 7 on the agenda pertaining to the
proposal in the Rent Supplement program to require nonprofit sponsors to put
up 5% equity (in effect a donation); that the reason the attempt to put this
thing in, is the theory that if nonprofit sponsors are financially inwl1ved
in the success of their project that they will have more permanent interest
in it; that Urban America's feeling is, if this is done the Rent Supplement
program will die before it gets an opportunity to grow; and Urban America has
suggested that those interested send telegrams to their Senators and to
Senator Warren Magnuson sugeesting that this approach of requiring the 5%
equity will defeat the purpose of the program; that what he would like to do
is to get an authorization from the Committee to sign a telegram in support of
this position and to urge consideration of this matter in the final preparation
of the bill.

A motion was made by Mr. Palmer, seconded ane unanimously adopted asking
Mr. Alexander to send such telegrams to appropriate Senators.

Mr. Clark asked if the 5% donation is a known step or a new development.

Mr. Alexander stated that it is new; that the thinking is that the
nonprofit sponsor is not suposed to be getting any profit back from the project
ane it is asking too much of him to put up 5% equity donation to the project.
Mr, Alexander also said that to give the other side of it is, that in 221 d (3)
nonprofit projects one can borrow up to a 102% of the project cost and this
is what you are competing with, in a sense.

Mr. Persells asked Mr. Alexander to explain the 102%..
Mr. Alexander explained what the extra 2% takes care of..
+ Fc *

Mr. Alexander again asked for and received unanimous consent to request
the City for a Glerk for at least 3 months.

Mr. Alexander then called for brief reports from the Pancl Chairmen.-

Legal Panel ~ Mr. Archer Smith made a very interesting presentation of
his case study and the significance of the Shaffer vs. City of Atlanta Housing
Code Case, which he announced was coming up for hearing the next day.

Construction and Design Panel ~ As no one was present to represent this
panel, Mr. Alexander explained a project which that panel was working on
involving Building Codes and a System study..

Finance and Nonprofit Funds Panel - Mr. Alexander explained that this
panel is working on creation of a Nonprofit Housing Development Corporation.
He also mentioned the favorable comments made at the Urban America Seminar
by a local banker pertaining to loans made through his bank to sponsors of
nonprofit projects.
Business Participation Panel - Mr. Alexander commented briefly on his
recent conference in Washington with Secretary Weaver and FHA Administrator,
Brownstein, pertaining to bringing "Big Business" into the low-income housing
field.

Public Information Panel ~ Mr. Clark commented on the ill-fated Browntormn
Road rezoning attempt and to a nonprofit sponsor project which is being promoted
locally by the Interfaith Group of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation.

Social Problems Panel - Dean Jackson explained that the averaze annual
income for Negroes in Atlanta is $3600 and that the number one question is the
adequacy of the number of bedrooms in rental units.

Mr. Alexander then called on Mr. David T. Edwards, sponsor of a rezoning
petition for an 18 acre site on the West side of Atlanta, North of Bakers
Ferry Road, S. W. (LL 2h, lth Dist. FF) to present his proposal (one of three
in Item 5 on the agenda). Mr. Edwards made a2 good and convincing presentation;
From questions asked. and comments made by some members of the Committee, the
Committee anpeared receptive to Mr. Edwards! proposal. Formal action by the
Committee however was not called for by the Chairman to endorse this project
to the Zoning Committee, as had previously been requested by Mr. Edwards,
as well as similar requests from sponsors of two other projects which the Committee
had previously endorsed to the Planning Board. This was for reasons explained
earlier in the mecting. Subscquently however, the Chairman of the Planning
Board was requested to pass on to the Zoning Committce, with the Planning
Boards! recommendations, a letter which had previously been written by the
Committee to the Planning Board endorsing those two projects.

The meeting was adjorned at 12 noon,
