Dear Mr. Milton: Enclosed are copies of letters to Dr. Samuel Williams and Mr. Jesse Hill, Co—Chairmen of the Atlanta Summit Leader- ship Conference. Several stories have appeared in The Atlanta Journal and Constitution relating to statements made by leaders of the Summit Conference, which apparently are not based on the most recent plans developed for rapid transit. It is my feeling that’ a meeting should be arranged with members of the Summit Conference at which Mr. Stuart could explain fully our present plans and answer any questions raised. If such a meeting is-.arranged, perhaps you could attend in your capacity as a member of the Board of Directors of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority. I would appreciate any comments or suggestions you might have about this situation. Sincerely, King Elliott, : Public Information Director.

Stuart December 15, 1966 Page 2 and State sources, the estimated local share of capital costs for the minimum operational system, and our research into economic indices that appeared to be reasonable in arriving at an equitable distribution of the local share of capital costs among the participating governments. Our understanding was that all of the financial officers were in agreement that the data fairly represented population and economic trends and projections for their jurisdictions and that the research procedures were realistic. We did not ask and did not expect these finance officers to agree to any allocation formula on behalf of their respective governments. I believe we all recognize that the materials presented to MARTA and ARMPC represent a research model which will make possible the development of a recommended allocation formula by this firm when final capital requirements are obtained from the engineers now updating the 1962 study. Moreover, it is not at all clear at this time whether a fixed or sliding-scale formula would be desirable. We will make available all materials necessary to help the Authority and local participating governments make a determination on this question. It is my understanding that Mr. James Carroll, Internal Auditor, and Mr. Marvin Beadle, Planning Director of DeKalb County have asked MARTA and ARMPC for copies of the preliminary data we presented at the December 12 meeting of ARMPC. Enclosed are three copies of that tabular material as well as three copies of our tax digest estimates and allocation formula indices contained in our staff memorandum of December 2~ 1966. We wish to advise that the tax digest data discussed with the finance officers was presented in constant 1965 dollars while the data attached has been converted to current dollars to reflect anticipated inflation. We stand ready to provide any financial data and personnel you may require in talks with the finance officers and heads of local participating governments . It is understood that these conferences are now being scheduled . We believe such talks would be very fruit ful in preparation for subsequent meetings planned for early 1967, at which time the new capital cost data will be available to tlevelop up-to-date information on indicated local government financial support r equirements .

Philip Hammer and Raul Garcia of this firm met with James Carroll, Charles Davis and John Still, the finance officers of DeKalb County, City of Atlanta and Fulton County respectively, on Friday, November 18, 1966. At these meetings they reviewed our research into tax digests, our estimates for planning purposes as to the pace and degree of financial support that might come from Federal Mr. Glenn E. Bennett Mr. Henry L. Stuart December 15, 1966 Page 2 and State sources, the estimated local share of capital costs for the minimum operational system, and our research into economic indices that appeared to be reasonable in arriving at an equitable distribution of the local share of capital costs among the partici- pating governments. Our understanding was that all of the financial officers were in agreement that the data fairly represented popula- tion and economic trends and projections for their jurisdictions and that the research procedures were realistic. We did not ask and did not expect these finance officers to agree to any allocation formula on behalf of their respective governments. I believe we all recognize that the materials presented to MARTA and ARMPC represent a research model which will make possible the development of a recommended allocation formula by this firm when final capital requirements are obtained from the engineers now updating the 1962 study. Moreover, it is not at all clear at this time whether a fixed or sliding-scale formula would be desirable. We will make available all materials necessary to help the Authority and local participating governments make a determination on this question. It is my understanding that Mr. James Carroll, Internal Auditor, and Mr. Marvin Beadle, Planning Director of DeKalb County have asked MARTA and ARMPC for copies of the preliminary data we pre- sented at the December 12 meeting of ARMPC. Enclosed are three copies of that tabular material as well as three copies of our tax digest estimates and allocation formula indices contained in our staff memorandum of December 2, 1966. We wish to advise that the tax digest data discussed with the finance officers was presented in constant 1965 dollars while the data attached has been converted to current dollars to reflect anticipated inflation. We stand ready to provide any financial data and personnel you may require in talks with the finance officers and heads of local participating governments. It is understood that these conferences are now being scheduled. We believe such talks would be very fruit- ful in preparation for subsequent meetings planned for early 1967, at which time the new capital cost data will be available to develop up-to-date information on indicated local government financial sup- port requirements.

Progress Reports: 1. General Manager. The General Manager reported on his appearance before the Committee on the Study of State and Local Governments of the Georgia House of Representatives. The Committee recommended that the State provide 10% of the total cost of the rapid transit system. He referred to negotiations which he had carried on with representatives of developers in the gulch area and the L. & N. Railroad, relative to rapid transit plans in the gulch. It appeared that all plans for development of the gulch had taken · into account the needs of the rapid transit system. After some discussion on the subject of handling the Authority's public information, particularly that part of it relating to financial considerations affecting local governments, it was agreed that all press releases prepared by the Authority's staff would be cleared with at least one member of the Board, preferably the Chairman or the Vice Chairman. 2. Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel. Mr. Coil reported on work which Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel had been carrying out during the past month. He said that the study of the north, northeast and east lines had been almost completed. Right-of-way maps had been prepared for the estimator, who was working in San Francisco on preliminary cost estimates. The firm was negotiating with several companies for aerial photography of the system, and expected to acquire this photography at an early date. In the discussion which followed Mr. Coil's report, it was agreed that at the earliest possible time, members of the Board should inspect routes, alignments and station locations recommended by the engineers, and that the highest governing authorities of the City of Atlanta - that is, the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen - should be apprised of the recommendations of the engineers and the decisions on specific route locations by the Authority . In order to acquire the necessary property within the city limits , it was essential that the Board of Aldermen and the Authority be in agreement prior to public hearings which are required by law . 3. Hammer, Greene , Siler Associates. Mr. Garcia reported that his firm had assembled data for Cobb County comparable to that which had been secured earlier for the other governments. Meetings had been held with finance officers of DeKalb County, and similar meetings were planned with Fulton - 3 - . / V �County and the City of Atlanta, to discuss recommendations in the reports which had been submitted to the Authority. The firm was assembling material explaining their research, and drafting the final report. Reappointment of committees: The Board had established two committees in 1966. One was the Finance Committee, composed of _Mr. Lane, Mr. Blount and Mr. Rich. A second was called the Financial Advisory Committee. This was the professional finance officers of the local governments. The reappointment of appeared to exist on letter from Mr. Lane to resign because of these committees was postponed. A vacancy the Board since the Chairman had received a in which he stated that he was being forc~d pressure of other work. Reappointment of Auditor: In accordance with provisions of the Rapid Transit Authority Act it was necessary to appoint an auditor annually. The Arthur Andersen Company was unanimously reappointed for 1967, at a fee of $300. Authorization to Execute Contracts: The General Manager requested authorization to execute a contract between the Authority and the Department of Housing and Urban Development to provide for the use of a grant of $396,333.00 under Section 9 of the Mass Transit Act of 1966. The grant had been approved but the contract documents had not been received. He further requested authorization to execute a contract between the Authority and Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel for engineering work to be performed in accordance with the grant. Copies of this agreement had been circulated to members of the Board. Upon a motion by Mr. Haverty, seconded by Dr . Atwood, Mr. Stuart was authorized to execute both contracts at the appropriate times . The General Manager asked for authority to authorize, if necessary, the e x penditure of $1 , 250.00 by Parsons, Brinckerhoff- Tudor , Bechtel for a right-of-way e x pert, Mr . Charles H. Shaw of San Francisco , to assist him in matters relating to right-of-way acquisition procedures. The General Manager also asked authorization to e x pend under the open-ended ret ainer agreement, an amount up to $2 , 000 .00 for - 4 - �surveying work, if required, to stake out certain alignments in the vicinity of the Union Station and Terminal Station area, to coordinate rapid transit plans with air right development plans. Authority's Funds: At Mr. Haverty's suggestion it was decided that the question of distribution of the Authority's funds among local banks be left as a matter for the Finance Committee to work out with the General Manager. Amendment to the Retainer Agreement: In view of the fact that a new contract was being made with Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel, it was considered to be in the best interest of the Authority that an amendment be made to the retainer agreement, consistent with its treatment of the other two contracts in effect with Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel, that is, the 701 and 702 contracts. It was unanimously agreed that the following resolution be adopted: RESOLUTION WHEREAS, Section 6 of the Retainer Agreement of June 28, 1966, between the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority and Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel provides that the existence of other contracts between the Authority and Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel and between the Atlanta Region Metropolitan Planning Commission and Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel will not cause the total compensation to Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel under the three contracts to be more than the cost that would prevail if all the work was performed under the terms of the said Retainer Agreement; and WHEREAS, a new contract will be executed between this Authority and Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel covering essentially the same work program but in a different geographical area than the other contracts; NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED , that Section 6 of said Retainer Agreement be amended to place this new con tract in the same perspective as the aforementioned contracts. - 5 - �Proposed Amendments to Rapid Transit Act: Mr. Huie stated that in an effort to further perfect the Act under which the Authority was constituted, certain amendments had been suggested for presentation to the forthcoming Legislature. These related to: 1. Giving to the Authority the power of eminent domain. 2. Broadening the definition of "professi'onal services." 3. Clarifying the question of spending funds of the Authority for public information and public education. 4. Giving the Authority the right to invest surplus funds. 5. Changing the requirements for expenditures which require competitive bidding. During the discussion of methods of communication between the Board of Directors and the delegations to the General Assembly, it was suggested by Mr. Rich that the Board, if possible, meet with the local delegations. Mr. Huie would make an effort to arrange appropriate meetings. February Meeting Date: It ~as agreed that because some members would be absent from the city on February 7, 1967, the next scheduled meeting date, the February meeting would be held on February 14, 1967, at 3:30 P.M. and appropriate notices would be sent. Adjournment: The meeting was adjourned at 4:45 P.M. - 6 - � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.

Mr. Bennett presented an accounting of Committee of 100 funds for which he had been custodian. An advance of $10,000.00 had been made by Forward Atlanta to assist in public information work relative to Amendment No. 14 which was approved in the November, 1966, general election. Funds expended totaled $3,489.43, and the balance of $6,510.57 was to be returned to Forward Atlanta. This was accepted by the Board, and Mr. Rich requested the General Manager to write a letter of appreciation to Forward Atlanta on behalf of the Board. All financial reports are attached hereto and made a part of these minutes.

Let's whip the North in semething -- how about a new railroad sta- tion, for a starter, then over-nite Sleeper trains to Jacksonville, and the other city destinations mentioned above. Sure, we need air service, but we also need railroad long-haul and meditZim =haul rail service. Mayor, what can you do to improve our image in front of the other 49 States and the thousands of other cities in the United States? After all, we are a large, important city -- in a very important State". Roy Christian Kendel .
