Report Required by Mayor's Directive of March 19, 1968
on.."U.S. Riot Commission Report

HOUSING

The entire report is quite comprehensive and well done. The Committee

deserves credit for so thoroughly analyzing and developing such a -comprehen-

sive report on such an involved and explosive matter.

In. general the renort has signaled out and effectively treated many of

the major issues involved. Little fault cen be found with its principal

findings anc recormendations.

However, the reoort basically places all responsibility for the riots on

the/White Cormunity and fails to place any responsibility on the participa

in /the Riots. for the wanton destruction and other crimes which they corwitted.

This
poten
not b

explo

State

omission is unfortunate as it edule result in a feeling among future
tial rioters that such procedure is condoned. This possidility should
4 a
e overlooked Nationally end locally in attenpting to deal with this
sive situation and prevent future riots. |
The report recommends and calls for drastic actions on the part of Federal,

» and Local sovernnents as ~rell as ‘nite Corrmmities for specific actions

to correct unsatisfactor, conditions es a deterrent in preventing future riots,

It fails however to call for or vlace upon the dissident octupents of slum areas

onstructive efforts which they themselves should take to improve their
tions °
Of the special recommendations contained in Chanter 10 of the report, it

that corrective measures for all of them are adecuately dealt with in

‘ayor's “March 19 Directive, with the cossible exception of "Sxcanded Lezal

ce to the Poor". “Additional corrective responsivtility in this field might
signed to the local Bar Associations.

The need for correcting or improving unsatisfactory conditions in the sluns

~ atties, one of the foremost of which is ree is very aeauneatea and
neral the remedies ‘rooos ed and recommendations made are sound and apocar
ate, if carried out on the local level.

With respect to Chanter 17 which deals specifically with pvrovosed corrective
res,;some basic considerations in the housing field appear to have been over-

d or at least they are not specifically brought out in the resort. Brief

nt on some of these, as they affect the local housing situation in Atlanta,

follows.

 
Three basic factors are currently demoralizing future progress in local
low-income housing construction in Atlanta:

First, is the local opposition to multi-family housing, particularly
Public Housing. Progress must be made in facilitating rezoning of necessary
sites to meet Atlanta's low-income housing needs, if adequate progress is to

be continued in this important field. _ ¥

.

“Second, the existing Federal policy of eiscomeging approval on sites for
Public Housing in racially; identifiable areas is hindering vrogress of the
program and preventing the construction of many wnits that are vad needed for
the lowest income families. |

Third, the legal prohibition against 221 d (3) Federall; assisted projects
nT built in governmental entities (such as netehborine counties which do not
have approved Jorkable Prozrans) is defeatinz the purpose of the Low-income
Housing Prosran and is placing undue hardship for providing such housing on communities
which do have workable Programs. The current polic; automatically excludes those
areas which —_ most available land and where the housing is most nesded
(near newly located industrial establishnents where the occupants could be
profitably emploved). This Committee recorr:ends that special effort be made to
overcome each of ‘the chove indicated obstecles.

The recormendation contained in the revort that Public Housing be more flexible
in both design end tzpes of units (including toimhouses, duplexes and even single
family houses) as well as Cistribution on smaller scattered sites, is very worthy
of encouragement, in order to zet avav fron the institutional imaze of Public
Housing. In fact it would be very helpful if the Housing Authority would elininate
all of its sisns at the entrances to projects advertizing to the public in effect
that "this. is a low rent Federally subsidized housing sroject", ‘

Emphasis in the report on application of the Housing Code in substandard and
depressed areas is ver appropriate, however the feature that could be most effective,
and which hes been most seglented in Atlanta, is not mentioned; that is tenant

responsibility. This should and must be stressed continously, in order to get
- « 3 o

more effective results fromthe Housing Code.

Hi

hood Centers should promote classes in housekeeping and

&gt;

All. #OA Neighbo
property maintenance by occupants of rental housing. Instruction in this field

should be instituted, perhaps at night, to which classes the Housing Court could

=

sentence minor offenders to attend a prescrited number of sessions, in lieu of
monetary fines or jail sentences for code violations, in a similar manner to the
procedure now being practiced in Traffic Court of sentencing minor offenders to

attend sessions in Traffic School.
 

2

The cleanup of premises, effecting commercial and industrial, as well as
residential properties, is another important factor in improving the ghettos.

The condition of premises should go hand in hend with Housing Code enforcement,
“whether it is directed iy kbp Sanitary Department or the Housing Code Inspectors.

It is quite futile to improve the living conditions of a dwelling unit and not
require the immediate premises and surrounding areas to be cleaned up and kept
clean, especially in the ghettos. Similarly, it is useless to improve a residential
property and leave the commercial or industrial propérties’ in the same vicinity in
a disgraceful and disreputable condition, | .

Atlanta needs badly a Commercial and Industrial Code, just as it has a Housing
Codee Some of the more progressive cities have such codes today. The enabling
legislation recently adopted which authorized Atlanta's "In Rem" Ordinance
providing for moving aupectly against dilapidated residential properties instead of,
in the traditional manner, against the owners, for violation of the Housing Code,
also authorizes such action against’ poorly maintained commercial and industrial
establishnents ‘as well. All that is needed is a local implementing Ordinance.

In order to provide and encourage much desired home owmership among low-income
families, a special single family zoning district should be adapted which would
permit construction of sinsle family homes of 720 square feet or larzer on lots
having a soubor dees of £,000 square feet, with a minimum frontzaze of 50', This
would provide ample area for low-invome single family houses and would provide
increase in the density by 503 and reduce the cost of lots by 33 1/3% from that now
authorized by the current applicable 2-5 single family residential zoning district.

It is ee that some new low-income development be iniated as soon as

possible this summer in the Model Cities area, by selecting at least one limited

area (perhaps four city blocks) in the heart of the most dilapidated portion of the

area and obtaining authority from the Federal government to acquire the land through
an advance sequisition process, similar to the manner in which land for the Audi-
torium and Civic Center ras acquired, and turning it over to the Housing Authority,
or through expedited sale to private enterprise to:develop,.

It is also recommended that iniation of asvulopnent of at east portion of
the Federel Prison site be expedited for starting construction this summer of low-

incone housing by private enterprise.

Ieer Ivan:

In Gonnection with the implementation of the housing phase of the
Riot Keport, ve sugsest the following: ,

1. 4A personal letter from you to all developers who heve not
broken grouné urging them to get moving. Colonel Jones can
supply you with the nares.

2. Cal}. on tie Aldoxmanic Loard to revise the City Bulldi
Code to conform with the National Fuilding Code, thus c1
less expensive construction.

3. Ask the Atlanta Eousing Authority to take 1,000 of the
units now to he develoned by the turnkey process and revert
to the old method of building them using the Authority.

It is in the erea of public housing units that we are behind
your scnedule.

&amp;&amp;.  Peviow the new macter land use plan to include sone nore

and strategic areas for housing. Then call on the Aldermanic
Board to acont the first phase of the master plan as a new
zoning ordinance.

®5. Appoint ae committee cf the Aldermanic Roard to deal with
housing.

6. Ask Lee Purge to announce the formation of the non-profit
housing Fund. I understand this is pretty well lined up.

Ye
levy is

                    <text>THE RESPONSE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY TO THE INQUIRY
OF THE HONORABLE IVAN ALLEN, JR o, MAYOR OF THE
CITY OF ATLANTA UNDER DATE OF MARCH 19, 1968,
WITH RESPECT TO HIS INQUIRY CONCERNING REQUESTED
ACTION TO BE TAKEN BY CITY DEPARTMENTS AND
PUBLIC AGENCIES.
.!
/
Following the ~ormat adopted by Mayor Allen in his
communique to all depar tment heads dated March 19, . 1968, please
be advised that no report ~as filed with respect to Paragraph 1
thereof inasmuch as the Law Departmen t of the City of Atlanta is
nf
the type of department which would be involved in the type
oi activity set forth therein. · Consequently, no report is made
lorn this d~partment concerning that feature of the letter.
With respect to Paragraph
2
of the report dealing with
Chapter 10 of Report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil
Disorders, please be advised that the following represents a report
of that chapter as the same is broken dO'wn in the book itself.
The chapter is broken into two phases which shall be
discussed in seritam fashion.
·
The first phase concerns short range work which should
be done and after each suggestion, a comment will be made concerning
how the Law Department may aid in the implementation thereof.
(a)
Establish neighborh9od action task force - it is the
opinion of this department that we might do nothing effective with
respect to the implementation of this:
· (b)
Establish effective grievance - response mechanism -
it is the opinion of th e Law Departi:lent that we would be in a position
"
�I
to assist h ere in that should such grievance - response hearings
be held, an Associ a te City Attorney could be present in order to
det ermine whether or not any proposed action taken would be legally


-


..,
permissible.
(c)
I
.
Expand lega l services f0r the poor - inasmuch as
the function of the City Attorney's Office is to represent the
Mayor and Board of Aldermen, it is our opinion that this matter
should be best be left to the Atlanta Bar Association and related
agencies, such as, but not limited to, The Emory University School
of Law.
(s:l)
Financial · assistance - we do not feel we could be
of any assistance here.
(e)
Hearing ghetto problems and enacting appropriate
local legislation - we could be of assistance here as indicated
under (b) ( a&amp;:tl-n=b o-l] above.
(f)
residents -
Expand employment by City Governrrent of ghetto
this_ department would not be able to assist in this
part"icular function.
- - -- with respect to the long term recommendations set forth
in Chapter 10, and adopting the same format above set forth, this
is our response to those.
(a)
Establish neighborhood city halls · - the Law De-
-~
par t ment would in all prob ability not be of any assistance in
this r e sp ect.
(b)
Deve lop
mult i - service c ent ers - this appears
.,
to deal with such thi ngs as parks and rec reationa l faciliti es
�. and the Law Dep ar tment ·would in all probability not be in a
posi t ion to be of any assistance here.
(c)
Improve political rep r esentation~ _jt has long
beeri the opinion of this department, as the sami has been ·
.
.
expressed thr ough the City Attorney, that the disproportionate
representation cr eated by malapportioned wards is, if not
unconstitutiona l, a bad practice.
This is even though all
aldermen are elect e d. on a city-wide .basis.
Admittedly, the
law's present posture se~ms to . be. city-wide elections are
sufficient to take this situation out of any constitutionally
infirm probl_em ·areas; however, a recent case in the Supreme
·,
Court of the United States, coming out of Texas, and which we
have not had an opportunity to digest, might indicate that
opposition is not as sound as it was prior to the opinion
set forth in the case.
In any event, this department stands
ready, willing and able to assist in such legisiation as is
necessary to cure malapportioned
.
. wards.
(d)
More effective community participation - it is
doubtful that the Law Department could serve in this particular
function.
With respect to the specific questions asked in Para~
graph 2, we feel that ' (a), (b) and (c) have already been answered
in the analysis and as to estimating the probable _cos·t involved,
we deem that the functions which we would do, as the same are set
fo r th a bove, would be done without any incr eased cost to the City
of At l ant a over and abov e the retainer s curr ently being paid to
t he sever a l a t to r neys conne c ted with the Law Depart ment .
.,
�With respect to the third paragraph of the letter of
Mar ch 19, 196 8 from Mayor Allen to the several department heads,
the follo wing constitutes our response as the same concerns itself
with Chapt e r 13 of the report of the National Advisory Commission
on Civi l Disorder s.
A work is necessar y with respect to some of ·the considerat ion s rais e d in this chapter and how the same has been
analyz e d by this department.
In all probability the report pretty
well hits the nail on the head when it indicates in Chapter 13
that the handling and prosecution under a mass arrest situation is
t _o tally diff~r ent from any normal type of operation that obtains
in the several courts that would have jurisdi ction over the type
of offenses tha t are normally committed during times of riot and
violence.
Also, the report seems to hit the nail on the head
when it indicates tha~ the administration of justice is an
incomplete function when primary emphasis is placed on the quelling
of the riots and virtually no emphasis is placed upon the prosecu~
tion and conviction· of people who -i;-1ere involved in the riots. The
repor-t of this department will primarily concern itself with these
two featu r es of Chapter 13.
It is the feeling of this department that the City of
Atlanta have on a st?ndby b a sis, certain members of the local
bar to act as both pro haec vice judg es and prosecutors.
The
r eason no recommendation is being made with respect. to defense
coun s e l is that it is our f ee ling that the public de fender syst em
now e st ablished by the Fulton Sup erior Court is sufficient to take
c are o f :,th i s feat ur e of the administration of justice.
c
It is our
•
thinking tha t the lo cal b ar would ri se to the oc c as i on and tha t
�these services would be furnished the City of Atlania at no
cost to the City of Atlanta.
Inasmuch as· the cry goes up concerning police brutality
during post arrests, thi~ department · feels ' that responsible members
of the negro coITLmunity should have access to detention areas of
the city jail for the purp·ose of assuring the negro_ public
that no abuse of prisoners is taking _place.
As a concomitant
of this, of course, the police would not abuse prisoners.
Also, a matter ·which should be considered is the
p ssibility _of holding neighborhood courts for bendable and
I
•.
.
recognisance offenses in an effort to keep the jails to a normal
population.
The implementation of this recommendation would be
difficult; however, we might even go so far as to have the
basements of schools utilized during periods of crisis for the
purpose of having a judge set bond and for the pu~pose of having
representatives of the several bonding companies present.
In
addition to schools, perhaps other public buildings located near
the areas would be permissible for this type of situation.
As above set forth, one of the grave problems concerning
the aftermath of riots is that in very few instances have prosecutions which ensued as the resul:t of riots been successfully
carried forward to conviction.
We feel that this shortcoming might
in part be attributable to lack on the part of policemen of knowing
what state or local laws are violated in a riot situation.
To
this end, it is our thinking that a representative of the SolicitorGeneral!s office, the Solicitor of the Criminal Court of Fulton
-·


,


"
County and the City Attorney, acting as a team, make lectures
or talk s to the polic e force in ord er to refamiliarize th em with
�what does in fact constitute criminal activity in this area.
Also, it is respectfully requested that the poiice begin using
photographic equipment a~d motion _pictures in order that proper
demonstrative evidence might be used by the prosecution for
the conviction of people who violate the law in this type of
situation.
No recommendation is made with respect to bonding
inasmuch as it is our opinion that the criterion
rlready est~b1ished by the several judges of the Municipal
Court are sufficient.

THE RESPONSE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY TO THE INQUIRY

OF THE HONORABLE IVAN ALLEN, JR., MAYOR OF THE

CITY OF ATLANTA UNDER DATE OF MARCH 19, 1968,

WITH RESPECT TO HIS INQUIRY CONCERNING REQUESTED

ACTION TO BE TAKEN BY CITY DEPARTMENTS AND

PUBLIC AGENCTES « » es

Following the format adopted by Mayor Allen in his
communique to all department heads dated March 19, 1968, please
be advised that no report was filed with respect to Paragraph 1
thereof inasmuch as the Law Department of the City of Atlanta is
not the type of department which would be involved in the type ©
of activity set forth therein. ‘ Consequently, no report is made

i this department concerning that feature of the letter.

@

With respect to Paragraph 2 of the report dealing with
Chapter 10 of Report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil
Disorders, please be advised that the following represents a report

of that chapter as the same is broken down in the book itself.

The chapter is broken into two phases which shall be

discussed in seritam fashion.

The first phase concerns short range work which should
be done and after each suggestion, a comment will be made concerning

how the Law Department may aid in the implementation thereof.

(a) Establish neighborhood action task force - it is the
opinion of this department that we might do nothing effective with

respect to the implementation of this.

-(b) Establish effective grievance - response mechanism -

it is the opinion of the Law Department that we would be in a position .

 
to assist here in that should such grievance - response hearings
be held, an Associate City Attorney could be present in order to
determine whether or not any proposed action taken would be legally

aa

permissible.

(c) Expand legal services fee Hie poor - inasmuch as
the function of the City Attorney's Office is to represent the
Mayor and Board of Aldermen, it is eux opinion that this matter
should be best be left to the Atlanta Bar Aseosiarion and related
agencies, such as, but not limited to, The Emory University School

of Law.

(d) Financial assistance - we do not feel we could be

of any assistance here.

(e) Hearing ghetto problems and enacting appropriate
local legislation - we could be of assistance here as indicated

under (b) (as=in=boy} above.

(f) Expand employment by City Government of ghetto
residents - this department would not be able to assist in this

particular function.

-~ With respect to the long term recommendations set forth
in Chapter 10, and adopting the same format above set forth, this

is our response to those.

(a) Establish neighborhood city halls - the Law De-
partment would in all probability not be of any assistance in

this respect.

(b) Develop multi - service centers - this appears

to deal with such things as parks and recreational facilities
.and the Law Department would in all probability not be in a

position to be of any assistance here.

(c) Improve political representation &lt; At has long
been the opinion of ids department, as the sewed ‘tei been -
expressed through the City Attorney, that eh disproportionate
representation created by malapportioned wards is, if not
unconstitutional, a bad practice. This is even though all
aldermen are elected on a city-wide ‘basis. Admittedly, the
law's present posture seems to be city-wide elections are
sufficient to take this situation out of any constitutionally
infirm problem areas; however, a recent case in the Supreme
Court of she United States, coming out of Texas, and which we
have not had an opportunity to digest, might indicate chat
opposition is not as sound as it was prior to the opinion
set forth in the case. In any event, this department stands

ready, willing and able to assist in such legislation as is

necessary to cure malapportioned wards.

(d) More effective community participation - it is
doubtful that the Law Department could serve in this particular

function. _

With respect to the specific questions asked in Para-
graph 2, we feel that (a), (b) and (c) have already been answered
in the analysis and as to estimating the probable cost involved,
we deem that the functions which we would do, as the same are set
forth above, would be done without any increased cost to the City
of Atlanta over and above the retainers currently being paid to

the several attorneys connected with the Law Department.
With nénpeck to the third paragraph of the letter of
March 19, 1968 from Mayor Allen to the several department heads,
the following constitutes our response as the same concerns itself
with Chapter 13 of the report of the National Advisory Commission

on Civil Disorders.

A work is necessary with respect to some of the con-
siderations raised in this chapter and how the same has been
analyzed by this department. In all probability the report pretty
well hits the nail on the head when it indicates in Chapter 13
that the handling and prosecution under a mass arrest situation is
totally different from any normal type of operation that obtains
in the several courts that would have jurisdiction over the type
of offenses that are normally committed during times of riot and
violence. Also, the report seems to hit the nail on the head
when it indicates that the administration of justice is an
incomplete function when primary emphasis is placed on the quelling
of the riots and virtually no emphasis is placed upon the prosecu-
tion and conviction’ of people who were involved in the riots. The
report of this department will primarily concern itself with these

two features of Chapter 13.

It is the feeling of this department that the City of
Atlanta have on a standby basis, certain members of the local
bar to act as both pro haec vice judges and prosecutors. The
reason no recommendation is being sia. etch respect to defense
counsel is that it is our feeling that the public defender system
now established by the Fulton Superior Court is sufficient to take
ene of this feature of the administration of justice. It is our

thinking that the local bar would rise to the occasion and that
these services would be furnished the City of Atlanta at no’

cost to the City of Atlanta.

*

Inasmuch as: the cry goes up concerning police brutality
during post arrests, this department feels‘ that responsible members
of the negro community should have access to devention areas of
the city jail for the purpose of assuring the negro public
that no abuse of prisoners is taking place. As a concomitant

of/ this, of course, the police would not abuse prisoners.

Also, a matter which should be considered is the
possibility of holding neighborhood courts for bondable and
resogeiuenve offenses in an effort to keep the jails to a normal °
population. The implementation of this recommendation would be
difficult: however; we might even go so far as to have the
basements of setienils utilized during periods of crisis for the
purpose of having a judge set bond and for the purpose of having
representatives of the several bonding companies present. In

addition to schoois, perhaps other public buildings located near

the areas would be permissible for this type of situation.

_ As above set forth, one of the grave problems concerning
the aftermath of riots is that in very few instances have pro-
secutions which ensued as the result of riots been successfully
carried forward to conviction. We feel that this shortcoming might
in part be attributable to lack on the part of policemen of knowing
what state or local Laws are violated in a riot situation. To

this end, it is our thinking that a representative of the Solicitor-
General's office, the Solicitor of the Criminal Court of Fulton

County and the City Attorney, acting as a team, make lectures

or talks to the police force in order to refamiliarize them with

 
 

what does in fact constitute criminal activity in this area.
Also, it is respectfully requested that the police begin using
photographic equipment and motion pictures in order that proper
demonstrative evidence might be used by the prosecution for

the conviction of people who violate the law in this type of

situation.

No recommendation is made with respect to bonding
provisions inasmuch as it is our opinion that the criterion
pinendy established by the several judges of the Municipal

a

Court are sufficient.

�THE RESPONSE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY TO THE INQUIRY
OF THE HONORABLE IVAN ALLEN, JR o, MAYOR OF THE
CITY OF ATLANTA UNDER DATE OF MARCH 19, 1968,
WITH RESPECT TO HIS INQUIRY CONCERNING REQUESTED
ACTION TO BE TAKEN BY CITY DEPARTMENTS AND
PUBLIC AGENCIES.
.!
/
Following the ~ormat adopted by Mayor Allen in his
communique to all depar tment heads dated March 19, . 1968, please
be advised that no report ~as filed with respect to Paragraph 1
thereof inasmuch as the Law Departmen t of the City of Atlanta is
nf
the type of department which would be involved in the type

lorn this d~partment concerning that feature of the letter.
With respect to Paragraph
2
of the report dealing with
Chapter 10 of Report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil
Disorders, please be advised that the following represents a report
of that chapter as the same is broken dO'wn in the book itself.
The chapter is broken into two phases which shall be
discussed in seritam fashion.
·
The first phase concerns short range work which should
be done and after each suggestion, a comment will be made concerning
how the Law Department may aid in the implementation thereof.
(a)

opinion of this department that we might do nothing effective with
respect to the implementation of this:
· (b)
Establish effective grievance - response mechanism -

the function of the City Attorney's Office is to represent the
Mayor and Board of Aldermen, it is our opinion that this matter
should be best be left to the Atlanta Bar Association and related

under (b) ( a&amp;:tl-n=b o-l] above.
(f)
residents -
Expand employment by City Governrrent of ghetto
this_ department would not be able to assist in this
part"icular function.
- - -- with respect to the long term recommendations set forth
in Chapter 10, and adopting the same format above set forth, this
is our response to those.
(a)
Establish neighborhood city halls · - the Law De-
-~
par t ment would in all prob ability not be of any assistance in
this r e sp ect.
(b)
Deve lop
mult i - service c ent ers - this appears
.,
to deal with such thi ngs as parks and rec reationa l faciliti es
�. and the Law Dep ar tment ·would in all probability not be in a
posi t ion to be of any assistance here.
(c)
Improve political rep r esentation~ _jt has long
beeri the opinion of this department, as the sami has been ·
.
.
expressed thr ough the City Attorney, that the disproportionate
representation cr eated by malapportioned wards is, if not
unconstitutiona l, a bad practice.
This is even though all
aldermen are elect e d. on a city-wide .basis.
Admittedly, the
law's present posture se~ms to . be. city-wide elections are
sufficient to take this situation out of any constitutionally
infirm probl_em ·areas; however, a recent case in the Supreme

have not had an opportunity to digest, might indicate that
opposition is not as sound as it was prior to the opinion
set forth in the case.
In any event, this department stands
ready, willing and able to assist in such legisiation as is
necessary to cure malapportioned
.
. wards.
(d)
More effective community participation - it is
doubtful that the Law Department could serve in this particular
function.
With respect to the specific questions asked in Para~
graph 2, we feel that ' (a), (b) and (c) have already been answered
in the analysis and as to estimating the probable _cos·t involved,
we deem that the functions which we would do, as the same are set
fo r th a bove, would be done without any incr eased cost to the City
of At l ant a over and abov e the retainer s curr ently being paid to
t he sever a l a t to r neys conne c ted with the Law Depart ment .
.,
�With respect to the third paragraph of the letter of
Mar ch 19, 196 8 from Mayor Allen to the several department heads,
the follo wing constitutes our response as the same concerns itself
with Chapt e r 13 of the report of the National Advisory Commission
on Civi l Disorder s.
A work is necessar y with respect to some of ·the considerat ion s rais e d in this chapter and how the same has been
analyz e d by this department.
In all probability the report pretty
well hits the nail on the head when it indicates in Chapter 13
that the handling and prosecution under a mass arrest situation is
t _o tally diff~r ent from any normal type of operation that obtains
in the several courts that would have jurisdi ction over the type
of offenses tha t are normally committed during times of riot and
violence.
Also, the report seems to hit the nail on the head
when it indicates tha~ the administration of justice is an
incomplete function when primary emphasis is placed on the quelling
of the riots and virtually no emphasis is placed upon the prosecu~
tion and conviction· of people who -i;-1ere involved in the riots. The
repor-t of this department will primarily concern itself with these
two featu r es of Chapter 13.
It is the feeling of this department that the City of
Atlanta have on a st?ndby b a sis, certain members of the local
bar to act as both pro haec vice judg es and prosecutors.
The
r eason no recommendation is being made with respect. to defense
coun s e l is that it is our f ee ling that the public de fender syst em
now e st ablished by the Fulton Sup erior Court is sufficient to take
c are o f :,th i s feat ur e of the administration of justice.
c
It is our
•
thinking tha t the lo cal b ar would ri se to the oc c as i on and tha t
�these services would be furnished the City of Atlania at no
cost to the City of Atlanta.
Inasmuch as· the cry goes up concerning police brutality
during post arrests, thi~ department · feels ' that responsible members
of the negro coITLmunity should have access to detention areas of
the city jail for the purp·ose of assuring the negro_ public
that no abuse of prisoners is taking _place.
As a concomitant
of this, of course, the police would not abuse prisoners.
Also, a matter ·which should be considered is the
p ssibility _of holding neighborhood courts for bendable and
I
•.
.
recognisance offenses in an effort to keep the jails to a normal
population.
The implementation of this recommendation would be
difficult; however, we might even go so far as to have the
basements of schools utilized during periods of crisis for the
purpose of having a judge set bond and for the pu~pose of having
representatives of the several bonding companies present.
In
addition to schools, perhaps other public buildings located near
the areas would be permissible for this type of situation.
As above set forth, one of the grave problems concerning
the aftermath of riots is that in very few instances have prosecutions which ensued as the resul:t of riots been successfully
carried forward to conviction.
We feel that this shortcoming might
in part be attributable to lack on the part of policemen of knowing
what state or local laws are violated in a riot situation.
To
this end, it is our thinking that a representative of the SolicitorGeneral!s office, the Solicitor of the Criminal Court of Fulton

"
County and the City Attorney, acting as a team, make lectures
or talk s to the polic e force in ord er to refamiliarize th em with

Also, it is respectfully requested that the poiice begin using
photographic equipment a~d motion _pictures in order that proper
demonstrative evidence might be used by the prosecution for
the conviction of people who violate the law in this type of
situation.
No recommendation is made with respect to bonding
inasmuch as it is our opinion that the criterion

Court are sufficient.

Tlu·ee basic factor s are currently der1orali z ing fut uTe progress in local

Ho:~ing Progr ai11 and is pl a cin3 un due har ds hip for pr oviclir:g such housing on co:'lmuni tie s
w' · ch do have ';Jorkabl e Pro ~rams .
The curre:r.t polic,· automatice.lly excludes those

This Corrc.r;,i tt ee recorr: ends th2.t s pe cial effort be mac.e to

The r e conmendation contained in the re!)ort tha t ?ublic Housins be more fl exi ble

and which has b een most n e ~lecte d in Atlanta, is not r:ient ioned; that is tenant

The condition of premis e s should g o hand in ha.nd ui th Hous ing Code enforcement,
· whe t her it is dire cte d b? the Sanit ary Dep ar t ment or the Eousing Code Insp ectors.
It is quite futile to i mprove the living conditions of a di,ielling unit a nd not
require the i mmediate pr elfliscs and surroundin~ areas to b e cle an e d up and kept
clean., ·espe cially in the gh_ettos .
Similarly , it is usel~ss to improve a res idential
property and l eave t he commercial or industrial p1·ope-;ties· in the same vicinity in
I
a dis;:;raceful and di sreput nbl e condition.
Atlanta n eeds badly a Commercial and Industrial CocJ.e, just as it I1as a Housing
Code.
Some of the mor e pro~ressive citi e s have s uch code s today.
The enablinr;

"In Hem" Ordinance

providing for moving directly a ga inst dilapidate d re s idential properties i nstead of,
in the traditional manner, a gainst the owners, for violation of the Hou.sine Code,

�A MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR OF ATLANTA
REGARDTNG THK METROPOLITAN YOUTH OPPORTUNITY PROGRAM
The promise and future strength of this metropolis is in our youth.
Many youths, particularly those who live in slums and poverty, need special
help in improving their lives. and finding a place in the mainstream of our
. society.
You, as participants in the Youth Opportunity Program, face a
challenging task and a vital responsibility. Your task will be to strengthen,
improve and increase every existing public and private service and to enhance
the sound growth and guidance of youth.
With energy, patience and determination, you can have a major effect
on the planning and operation of programs which provide jobs, educa tion, recreation services, and other activities for our less advantaged young people.
This can be done through full cooperation and support from every
resource.
that
a jo
I want especially to stress the necessity of jobs. It is essential
very young person experience the challenge and satisfaction of holding
during the summer.
We must; of course, continue to build programs that meet the needs
of our youth on a year-round basis.

�ADULT VOLUNTEER PROGRAM
I. .
Introduction
A key to succ ess of the entire youth opportunity program will be the number
of volunteers recruit e d. The manpower needed to carry out the many activi-ties in this pro gram is too numerous to be obtained from the limited funds
available. Effort will be made to recruit, train and place a total of 500
full: iujd part time volunteers.
These volunteers will serve in a variety of ways: Camp counselors, employ- .
ment interviewers, game room supervisors, gym instructors, coaches, tµtors,
bus supervisors, homemake teachers, arts and crafts instructors, and hundreds
of other types of l eaders.
II.
Recruitment
Recruitment of volunteers will be prima rily through public media, speaking
engagements, brochures, and flyers. A full page ad will be placed in the
three major n ews papers. The Federal Government, Labor Unions, several trade
associatiops, professional organizations, churches, and religious groups
will be solicited for volunteer services. The Federal agencies are asking
all of its 27,000 volunteers to work in this program.
III.
Training
Training of the volunteers will be don e by VISTA, the American Red Cross,
and the us er agencies.
IV.
Plac ements
A special volunte er placement connnittee is presently at work and will ptace
the volunteers .
Spe cial Even ts
An import ant part of the Youth Opportunity Program will be special events .
Severa l special events will be planned and implemented by the individual agencies
and organi zations . The Sch ool and Recreation Department are now planning sp ec ial
events such as J r. Olympics, Field Days, Chattanooga-At lanta Games and other
similar events.
In addition, arrangements are being made to obtain tickets and admission to
movies, theaters , athletic events, and cultural activiti es. Bus ,·~-_p lane, train
. ,.,
- 8=
�and boat trips are b~ing arrang e d . Picnics, outings, and special sight - seeing
tours are be ing arranged. The Special Events Sub-Committee is being chaired by
Mr. st·eve Fox .
TRANSPORTATION
One of the most crucial and critical problems to be solved in the youth Opportunity
program is transportation. Ninety-five per cent of all the proposals submitted requires
transport~tion. The pr e s ent plan is to centralize all transportation and dispatch by
request and re gular routing . The buses will be obtaine d from the following sources:
The Atlanta Transit Company
The/ Third Army and Other Military .
The Fulton County Schools
The DeKalb County Schools
Fri ate owners of buse s us ed by the Counties
Chu ch owned buses
Th~ Greyhound Bus
Th Trailways Bus
Th Continental Trailways Bus
Th'e major Rail Companies
State National Guard
An estimate of the transportation needs is illustrate d by the requests made in submitted projects. An estimated $158,000 is needed to provide th e need e d transportation

Dear Dan:
I attach hereto our proposal to E.O.A. for summer Recreation,
Employment and Enrichment Program. You will note that the
cash requested exceeds $1,300,000. On April 5, 1968 we
were advised by Mr. Jim Parham, Director of E.O.A., that
only $590,000 would be available to fund all proposals
from private, as well as public agencies. We are asking
to receive 100% of all cash available, but even if this is
done, we will need supplemental financing by City funds.
The attached proposal is submitted to your attention relative
to the recently passed Ordinance requiring a review of all
proposals by the Review Application Board, the Finance
Corrnnittee, and the Department's respective Committee . The
Parks Committee of the Board of Aldermen on March 22, 1968
approved the submission o f the attached.
ncerely,

Recreation, Employment and Enrichment Program
From June 1, 1968, to September 2, 1968 (With certain programs
extending to December 31, 1968).
(a)
Department of Parks and Recreation, City of Atlanta, Georgia, (In
conjunction with Atlanta Public Schools), City Hall Annex,

The geographic area to be covered is that portion of the City of Atlanta
designated by E. O. A. as Tar ge t Area ; plus, Fringe Areas which are borderline in respect to economic and social cla ssi f ications.
The persons to be s erved are f ive years of a ge to s e nior citizens; both
s exes, in-school a nd out-of -school.
V.
It is estimated that 150 participa nts each day will us e ea ch location. Plans
ca ll f or 140 loca tions to be s erved. Thus, 21,000 persons each day wi ll be
served. This f i gure doe s not i nc lude a c tiv iti e s such a s Award Day, audien.ces
f or band concerts, e tc., and other s pec tator a ctivities .
VI .
Many a r eas of the city a r e deficien t i n park and recreati on fa cili ties . This
f a ct had been clearly noted by the just comp l e t e d 1968-1983 Parks and
Recrea tion Pl an . Staf f of E. O. A. , Community Council, Ci ty Pl anning and
Department of Parks conducted t he study. The need f or the pr ogram covered by
this proposal i s clear ly e v i dent in the total a b sence of park and recreation
fa c ili ties in many targe t areas and t h e inadequa cy of facilities where they
do exis t . In resp onse t o these deficiencies , s ome 40 playlo ts have been
cons tructed and s taffed, u s i ng f or the most part , E. O. A. f unds. These
playlots f a il t o pr ovide full y ade~uate physical faci lities . Thus, s ome 62
school s wil l be u sed dur i ng the summer. The report Opportuni t y For Urban
Excellence cites a c lose corre l ation between a bsence of fac i lities and
incident of juveni l e delinquency.
VII.
A coordinator of summer activities will be employed by May 1, 1968. His
duties wi ll be to ·.initi~lly locate and recruit l eaders of ALL age levels in
ALL target areas to serve a s an Adv isory Counci l f or planning and development. The Coordinator will be assisted in recruitment by school counci l ors
�at 62 elementary and high school locations; by E. O. A. Neighborhood Service
Center Personnel; by the Community Council and by staff of Parks and Recreation
Department, Leaders representing not only their age group but their respective
neighborhoods will be asked to assist the staff in planning the summer program.
It is intended that each location (be it school, park or public housing project)
will have local preferences as to types of programs. However, it is assumed
that some identifiable basic list of prepared activities will emerge and
utilized as a base to insure "equal" programs on a city-wide basis.
The program will initially be developed on a .pilot basis with constant
evaluation by neighborhood leaders. Once assured of our acceptability and
desirability of a given activity, it will be offered city-wide for the
duration of the summer,
Heavy emphasis will be placed on employing disadvantaged citizens in the
operation of the program, Assignments of employment will range from
actually operational, such as Recreation Aides to Advisory and Representation
Roles in the various communities. It is planned that distinctive shirts will
be suppl:•.ed to teenagers wlu:- will serve as cadre on a voluntary basis, approximately 100 teenagers and young adults will be transported to Atlanta Wilderness
Camp each week to assist in its development while at camp. The young people
will be taught swimming, canoeing, camping, nature interpretation, etc,
VIII.
IX.
The project will have an overall Director, Assistant Director, Clerical
Staff, Recreation Leaders, Recreation Supervisors, Camp Directors, Enrichment
Personnel (Dance, Drama, Music, Arts and Craft). The number of poor youth ,
employed will be 336. Volunteers will exceed 100.
The program will cover all areas within the defined boundries of E. O. A's.
target zones. Some 140 locations will be staffed, using 62 schools and 78
parks and playlot locations. The hours of operation will be 9 A.M. - 9 P.M.,
Monday through Saturday. There will be a Central Headquarters located at
Central Junior High School, 232 Pryor Street, S. E. The central office will
coo r din,::i.te all Pa r k and Rec r eation Department and Atlanta Public School
Department's summer activites related to recreation, employment and cultural
enrichment for the disadvantaged. The Program Director will be in ove r all
charge of the project and will answer to a committee made up of School and
Parks personnel as well as advisory committee of citizens. Al l supplies,
e uipment, travel and transportaion, payroll, etc., will be handled a t the
Central Office, The City of Atlanta Purchasing Department will handle pu rchase
transactions when requisitioned by the Central Office. The Central Office will
maintain account records in order to h ave available current data. The Da t a
Processing Division of Atlanta Public Schools will be utilized if needed to
analyze problems, expenditures, p articipation, etc. It is imperative th at
the Central Office be staffed by May 1, 1968 in order to establish procedures,
communications with the neighborhood's recruitment and supply channels. This
Parks/Schools joint venture will carefully supplement and mesh with (1)
regular City recreation problems, (2) Community Schools, (3) work - study and
vocational education, (4) Title I Pro gr ams, (5) Neighborhood Youth Corps InSchool Enrollees, (6) contributing private agencies, (7) Academic Summer Schoo l
Pr ogram (8) Head Start, (9) individual contributions, (10) other public agenc y
c ontribu tions. The At l anta Children and You t h Council will s erve as overall
�coordinator acting for and with Mayor's Council on Youth Opportunity to
see that all other support agencies are carefully coordinated with the
City's program. This project will not pre-emp, but rather supplement
r egular City programs. Without Federa l Funds, much, if not all, of the
planned activities for disadvantaged areas would be curtailed, Thus,
this Community Action Program complements the total City program.
Youth, young adults, adults and senior citizens will assist in planning
the program, its operation, and evaluation. Of special emphasis will be
a ge group 5-25 years with the greatest attention directed to the teenager
and young adult. The school drop-out, the potentia l drop-out, those wi t h
no immediate source of income, those with no positive contacts with Social
Service Agencies, and those with no consistent work history on marketable
skills will be located and employed by Central Office as an initial step in
structuring and planning the program. Allocation of job slots will be based
on geographical distribution and population so that all target areas wi l l
contribute. The Neighborhood Service Center, School Counselors and Soci a l
Agencies will be invited to assist in locating and screening applicant s.
A police record will not necessarily preclude employment, but the Director's
judgement will prevail in cases involving morals, and in particular, s exua l
offenses. There will be no formal Civil Service Examination; selection will
be based on (1) need for employment as outlined above, (2) neighborhood
identification, (3) leadership a bility, and (4) skills that can contr i but e
t o the progr am. The Pro gr am Dir ector will name fin a l selection and a s s i gnment. Arrangements will be made for medical physicals to be given each
applicant. Medical problems will be reported to Fulton County Medical
Department for follow-up. Medical prot lems will not necessarily bar
employment, but rather serve as a guide in a ssignments.
Five recreation districts will be established and supe rvis ed by re gular
Park/School personnel. Youth will be u sed a s Aide s in e a ch dis t rict
office (as well as Control Office), each school and each park area.

be scheduled for at least once a week per location. Definite
schedules and programs wil l be distributed thru schools (before
they recess for summer) Neighb orh ood Se rvice Centers, and. news

Constant monitoring and evaluation by Citizens' Advisory Committee
as well as staff of School Board and Parks Department.
This project compliments and extends normal agency program and fills
gaps and deficiencies existing in disadvantaged areas. In addition
to service to the .poor, the program will clearly illustrate to the
city and its citizens what can be done with sufficient financing.
It can not be stated a t this time what part of this program will be
continued once federal funding is completed. However, on two previous
occasions, the ~City has continued parts of O.E.O. financed funding.

I am enclosing a copy of a Sunnner Recreation Program which has been developed
jointly by the Parks Department, Sch:&gt;ol Department, and others. This application has been approved by the Grant Review Board and has been submitted to
EOA for funding.
You will note in your review of the program that the total program amounts
to $1,826,469 with $487,690 being made up of non-cash grants-in-aid which
are being furnished by the city and/or the Atlanta Board of Education. Funds
for most of the items have already been appropriated, and there will be
little additional need to undertake the program if the federal government
allocates their $1,338,779 through EOA.
Correspondence and discussions with Mr. Delius indicate that the total available funds from EOA for the entire metropolitan region will amount to
$590,000 which indicates that the program must be considerably curtailed if
it is to be kept within the present appropriations.
We should have an answer from EOA very shortly so a decision may be made as
to the funding of this program.
I am also enclosing a copy of a letter dated April 21, 1968, to Mayor Allen
from Mr. Delius regarding the sununer program for your further information.

Recreation, Employment and Enrichment Program
From June 1, 1968, to September 2, 1968 (W~th certain programs
extending to December 31, 1968).
(a)
Department of Parks and Recreation, City of Atlanta, Georgia, (In
conjunction with Atlanta Public Schools), City Hall Annex,
260 Central Avenue, S. W., Atlanta, Georgia , 30303 (Public).
Ja. 2-4463, Ext. 311.

The geographic are a to be cover ed is tha t portion of the City of Atlan t a
designated by E. O. A. as Target Area ; plus , Fringe Areas which are borderline in respect to economic and social class ifica tions .
The persons to be served are five years of age to s enior c i tizens ; both
sexes, in-school and out-of-school.
v.
It · is estima t e d tha t 150 participants each day will use each location. Plans
ca ll for 140 loca tions to be s erved. Thus, 21,000 persons each day wi ll be
s erved. This figure does no t inc lude activi ties such as Award Day, aud i ei'J.ces
for band concer ts, etc., and other spectator activi ties .
VI.
Many areas of the city are deficient in park and recreation faci lities . This
fact ha d been clear ly noted by the just comp l eted 1968- 1983 Parks and
Recreation Plan. Staff of E. O. A., Community Council, City Planning and
Departmen t of Parks conduc ted the study . The need for the program covered by
this proposal is clearly evident in the total absence of park and recreation
facilities in many target areas and the inadequacy of faciliti es where they
do exist. In response to these deficienci es , some 40 playlo ts have been
constructed and staffed, using for t he most par t, E. O. A; funds. These
playlots fail to provide fully ade~uate physical faci li ties . Thus, some 62
schools will be used during the summer. The report Opportunity For Urban
Exce llence cites a close correlation be tween absence of facilities and
incident of juvenile de linquency.
VII.
\
A coordinator of SUITu~er activities will be emp loyed by May 1, 1968. His
duties will be to'.initi~lly locate and recruit leader s of ALL age leve ls in
ALL target areas to serve as an Advisory _C ouncil for planning and deve lop ment. The Coordinator will be assisted in recruitment by school councilors
�-
I
at 62 elementary and high school locations; by E. O. A. Neighborhood Service
Center Personnel; by the Community Council and by staff of Parks and Recreation
Department. Leaders repre sen ting not only their age group but their respective
neighborhoods will be a sked to assist the staff in planning the sumi~ er program.
It is intended that each location (be it school, park or public housing project)
will have local preferences as to types of programs. However, it is assumed
that some identifiable basic list of prepared activities will emerge and
U;tilized as a base to insure "equal" programs on a · city-wide basis.
The program will initially be developed on 'a .pilot basis with constant
evaluation by neighborhood leaders. Once assured of our acceptability and
desirability of a given activity, it will be offered city-wide for the
duration of the summer.
Heavy emphasis will be placed on employing disadvantaged citizens in the
operation of the program. Assignme nts of employment will range from
actually operational, such as Recrea tion Aides to Advisory and Repre sentation
Roles in the various communities. It is planned that distinctive · shirts wiil
be suppl5.ed to teenagers wlH-:- will serve as cadre on a voluntary basis, approximately 1100 teenagers and young adults will be transported to Atlanta Wilderness
Camp each week to assist in its development while at camp. The young people
will be taught swimming, canoeing, camping, nature interpretation, etc,
VIII.
IX.
\
The . project will have an overall Dire ctor, Assistant Director, Clerical
Staff, Recreation Leaders, Recreation Supervisors, Camp Directors, Enrichment
Personnel (Dance, Drama, Music, Arts and Craft). The number of poor youth,
employed will be 336. Volunteers will exceed 100.
The program will cover all areas within the defined boundries of E. O. A's.
target zone s. Some 140 loc a tions will be st a ff ed, using 62 schools and 78
parks and pl aylot locations. The hours of ope r a tion will be 9 A.M. - 9 P.M.,
Monday through Saturday. There will be a Central Headquarters located at
Central Junior High School, 232 Pryor Street, S. E. The central office will

Central Office. The City of Atlanta Purch asing Department will handl e purchase
transactions when requisitioned by the Ce nt r a l Of fice. The Ce nt ral Off ice will

Pr o gram ( 8) Head Start , ( 9) i nd ividua l contributions , ( 10) o t he r publ ic agency
contri bu tions . The Atl an t a Children and Youth Counc il wi ll serve as ove rall
�coordinator acting for and with Mayor's Council on Youth Opportunity to
see that all other support agencies are carefully coordinated with the
City's program. This project will not pre-emp, but rather supplement
regular City programs. Without Federal Funds, much, if not all, of the
planned activities for disadvantaged areas would be curtailed. Thus,
this Community Action Program complements the total City program.
Youth, young adults, adults and senior citizens will assist in planning
the program, its operation, and evaluation. Of special emphasis will be
age ·group 5-25 years with the greatest attention directed to the teenager
and young adult. The school drop-out, the potential drop-out, those with
no immediate source of income, those with no positive contacts with Social
Service Agencies, and those with no consistent work history on marketable
skills will be located and employed by Central Office as an initial step in
structuring and planning the program. Allocation of job slots will be based
on geographical distrtbution and population so that all target areas will
contribute. The Neighborhood Service Center, School Counselors and Social
Agencies will be invited to assist in locating and screening applicants.
A police record will not necessarily preclude employment, but the Director's
judgement will prevail in cases involving morals, and in particular, sexual
offenses. There will be no formal Civil Service Examination; selection will
be based on (1) need for employ,ne.nt as outlined above, (2) neighborhood
identification, (3) leadership ability, and (4) skills that can contribute
to the program. The Program Director will name final selection and assignment. Arrangements will be made for medical physicals to be given each
applicant. Medical problems will be reported to Fulton County Medical
Department for follow-up. Medical pro;;, lems will not necessarily bar
employment, but rather serve as a guide in assignments.
Five recreation districts will be established and supervised by regular
Park/School personnel. Youth will be used as Aides in each district
office (as well as Control Office), each school and each park area.

Creative Rhytmics

Constant monitoring and evaluation by Citizens' Advisory Committee
as well as staff of School Board and Parks Department.
This project compliments and extends normal agency program and fills
gaps and deficiencies existing in disadvantaged areas. In addition
to service to the .poor, the program will clearly illustrate to the
city and its citizens what can be done with sufficient financing.
It can not be stated ~t this time what part of this program will be
continued once federal funding is completed. However, on two previous
occasions, the _·_city has continued parts of O,E. 0, financed funding.

Subject:
Summer Program of Recreation., Employment and Enrichment
for the Disadvantaged Citizens of the City of Atlanta
Dear Mr. Allen:
'
As you know, we have presented to E.O.A., Inc. our proposal., in
cooperation with the Atlanta School System, to conduct a special
program ot recreation, employment and enrichment for the disadvantaged citizens of the City of Atlanta. We propose to begin the
project June 1 and terminate it around Labor Day. In the next
few days we intend to select and employ a coordinator/dire ctor for
the program so that the central o ffice for this program can be fully
functioning well before June 1. Mr. John Cox , of the Atlanta Youth
Council~ has agreed with the undersigned to supply funds for the
purppse of employing the coordinator/director and basic staff for
the central office. The selection of a director and other personnel
will be a cooperative venture on the part of the Departme nt of Parks
and the Atlanta School system.
,
I
Our proposal to E.O.A. exceeds $1.,300.,000 and calls for the operation
of a total . of 140 locations within the target areas as defined by
E.O.A. Some 62 of the locations are elementary and high school
sites. On April 19, 1968, we were advised by Mr. Dan sweat of your
office that the total funds available for this project including
E.O.A. grant s and spe cial appropriations from City Hall would
amount to $600,000 o Mr. sweat r equ est e d at that- time hat we b egin
to scale down our budget to come within this figure . Accordingly,
we are developing a new budge to It is my understanding that the
City of Atlanta Department of Parks will not be able to receive
substantially all of the funds made avai l able to E~O.A. for summer
projects. In other words, other agencies (private and semi- public)
will b e funde d for various types of programso

Dear Charles:
I am enclosing our proposal to E . O.A. for summer Recreation,
Employment and Enrichment Program. You will note that the
federal cash requested is in excess of $1,300,000. We were
advised on April 5, 1968 by Mr. Jim Parham, the Director of
E .o .A., that only $.~~ 0 , 000 would be available for all agency
f unding. Thus, if we were to receive 100°/o of all available
E.O.A. cash (we are making such a request), we would still
be deficient many thousands o f dollars. I am assuming that
the City of Atlanta can supplement our E.O.A. grant to some
extent. Obviously, some items can be reduced or perhaps
eliminated in the attached proposal.
The proposal is sent to your attention per the recent ordinance
requiring a review o f proposals by the Finance Committee, my
Department's Committee, and the Application Review Board.
incerely,
Enclosure

Recreation, Employment and Enrichment Program
From June 1, 1968, to September 2, 1968 (With certain programs
ex tending to Dec ember 31, 1968).

Department of Parks and Recreation, City of Atlanta, Georgia, (In

Th e geographic area to be cover ed is tha t portion of the City of Atlanta
desi gnated by E. O. A. as Tar ge t Ar ea; plus, Fringe Areas which are borde rline in respect to economic and social classifications.
The persons to be serve d are f ive years of age to senior citizens; both
s exe s, in-school and out-o f -school.
V.
I t is estima ted that 150 participants each da y will us e each location. Plans
ca ll for 140 locations to be s erve d. Thus, 21,000 persons each day wi ll be
s erved. Th is f i gure does not i nclude a cti vit ie s such as Award Day, audience s
f or band concerts, e tc., and ot her spe ctator a ctivitie s.
VI.
Many a r eas of the city are def ici ent i n pa rk and recrea tion fa c i litie s . This
fa c t had been clearly noted by the just comple t e d 1968 -1 983 Parks and
Re creati on Plan . Sta ff of E. 0. A., Community Council, Ci ty Planning and
Departmen t of Pa r ks conducted t he s t udy, The need f or th e pr ogram cover ed by
th i s pr opos a l is c lear ly evid ent i n the t otal abs ~~ce of park a nd re crea tion
fa c il i ties in many t arge t areas and t he i na de qua cy of fa ci l i ties where they
do ex i st . I n re spons e to the s e defi c ienc ie s , some 40 p laylots have been
c onstruc ted a nd s taf f ed, us i ng f or the mos t part, E. O. A. fund s . These
playlo ts fail t o pr ovide f ul ly ade~uate phys i cal fa ci li t ies. Thus, s ome 62
s ch oo l s will be used dur i ng t he summer. The repor t Opportunity For Ur ban
Excellence c i t e s a cl os e correlation between abs ence of f a cilities and
incident of j uvenile de l inquency.
VII.
A coordinat or of summer activiti e s will be emp l oyed by May 1, 1968 . His
duties will be to ·.initi? lly locate and r ecruit leaders of ALL a ge level s i n
ALL t arget a r eas t o serve as an Advisor y Council f or planning and develop- ,
ment. The Coordinator wi l l be assisted in r ecr uitment by s choo l c ouncilors
�at 62 elementary and high school locations; by E. O. A. Neighborhood Service
Center Personnel; by the Community Council and by staff of Parks and Recreation
Department. Leaders representing not only their age group but their respective
neighborhoods will be asked to assist the staff in planning the surrnner pro gram .
It is intended that each location (be it school, park or public housing project)
will have local preferences as to types of programs. However, it is assumed
that some identifiable basic list of prepared activities will emerge and
1.1:tilized as a base to insure "equal" programs on a city-wide basis.
The program will initially be developed on ·a .pilot basis with constant
evaluation by neighborhood leaders. Once assured of our acceptability and
desirability of a given activity, it will be offered city-wide for the
duration of the summer.
Heavy emphasis will be placed on employing disadvantaged citizens in the
operation of the program. Assignments of employment will range from
actually operational, such as Recreation Aides to Advisory and Representation
Roles in the various communities. It is planned that distinctive shirts will
be supplied to teenagers ~10 will serve as cadre on a voluntary basis, approximately 1lOO teenagers and young adults will be transported to Atlanta Wilderness
Camp each week to assist in its development while at camp. The young people
will be taught swimming, canoeing, camping, nature interpretation, etc.
VIII.
IX.
The project will have an overall Director, Assistant Director, Clerical
Staff, Recreation Leaders, Recreation Supervisors, Camp Directors, Enrichment
Personnel (Dance, Drama, Music, Arts and Craft). The number of poor youth ,
employed will be 336. Volunteers will exceed 100.
The program will cover all areas within the defined boundries of E. O. A's.
target zones. Some 140 locations will be staffed, using 62 schools and 78
parks and playlot locations. The hours of operation will be 9 A.M. - 9 P.M.,
Monday through Saturday. There will be a Central Headquarters located at
Central Junior High School, 232 Pryor Street, S. E. The central office will
coo:r.dirni.te all Pa r k and Recreation Department and Atlanta Public School
Department's summer activites related to recreation, employment and cultural
enrichment for the disadvantaged. The Program Director will be in overall
charge of the project and wil l answer to a committee made up of School and
Parks personnel as well as advisory committee of citizens. All supplies,
e uipment, travel and transportaion, payroll, etc., will be handled at the
Central Office. The City of Atlanta Purchasing Department will handle purchase
transactions when requisitioned by the Central Office. The Central Office will
maintain account records in order to have available current data. The Data
Processing Division of Atlanta Public School s ,·;ri ll be utili zed if needed to
analyze problems, expenditures, participation, etc. It is imperative that
the Central Office be staffed by May 1, 1968 in order to establish procedures,
communications with the neighborhood's recruitment and supply channels. This
Parks/Schools joint venture will carefull y supplement and mesh with (1)
regular City recreation problems, (2) Community Schools, (3) work-study and
vocational education, (4) Title I Programs, (5) Neighborhood Youth Corps InSchool Enrollees, (6) contributing private agencies, (7) Academic Summer School.
Program (8) Head Start, (9) individual contributions, (10) other public agency
contributions . The Atlanta Children and Youth Council will serve as overall
�coordinator acting for and with Mayor's Council on Youth Opportunity to
see that all other support agencies are c arefully coordinated with the
City's pro gram. This project will not pre-emp, but rather supplement
regular City programs. Without Federal Funds, much, if not all, of the
planned activities for disadvantaged areas would be curtailed. Thus,
this Community Action Program complements the total City program.
Youth, young adults, adults and senior citizens will assist in planning
the program, its operation, and evaluation. Of special emphasis will be
age group 5-25 years with the greatest attention directed to the teenager
and young adult. The school drop-out, the potential drop-out, those with
no immediate source of income, those with no positive cont a cts with Social
Service Agencies, and those with no consistent work history on marketable
skills will be located and employed by Central Office as an initial step in
structuring and planning the program. Allocation of job slots will be based
on geographical distribution and population so that all target areas will
contribute. The Neighborhood Service Center, School Counselors and Social
Agencies will be invited to assist in locating and screening applic ants .
A police record will not necessarily preclude employment, but the Direc tor's
judgement will prevail in cases involving morals, and in particular, sexual
offenses. There will be no formal Civil Service Examination; selection will
be based on (1) need for employillent as outlined above, (2) neighborhood
identification, (3) le adership ability, and (4) skills tha t c an contribute
to the program. The Pro gram Director will name final selection and assignment. Arrangements will be made for medical physicals to be given each
applicant. Medical problems will be reported to Fulton County Medical
Department for follow-up. Medical pro;.?lems will not necessarily bar
employment, but rather serve as a guide in assignments.
Five recreation districts will be established and supervised by r egular
Park /School personnel. Youth will be used as Aides in each district
office (as well as Control Office), each school and each park area.

Crea tive Rhytmics

be scheduled for at l e ast once a we e k per location. Definite
schedules and programs wil l b e dis t ributed thru schools (before
they recess for summer) Nei ghborhood Se rvice Centers, and. news

Constant monitoring and evaluation by Citizens' Advisory Corrnnittee
as well as staff of School Board and Parks Department.
This project compliments and extends normal agency program and fills
gaps and deficiencies existing in disadvantaged areas. In addition
to service to the .poor, the pro gram will clearly illustrate to the
city and its citizens what can be done with sufficient financin g .
It can not be stated a t this time what part of this program will be
continued once federal funding is completed. However, on two previous
occasi6ns, the j:;ity has continued parts of O.E.O. financed funding.

Dear Mayor Allen:

�THE RESPONSE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY TO THE INQUIRY
OF THE HONORABLE IVAN ALLEN, JR o, MAYOR OF THE
CITY OF ATLANTA UNDER DATE OF MARCH 19, 1968,
WITH RESPECT TO HIS INQUIRY CONCERNING REQUESTED
ACTION TO BE TAKEN BY CITY DEPARTMENTS AND
PUBLIC AGENCIES.
.!
/
Following the ~ormat adopted by Mayor Allen in his
communique to all depar tment heads dated March 19, . 1968, please
be advised that no report ~as filed with respect to Paragraph 1
thereof inasmuch as the Law Departmen t of the City of Atlanta is
nf
the type of department which would be involved in the type
oi activity set forth therein. · Consequently, no report is made
lorn this d~partment concerning that feature of the letter.
With respect to Paragraph
2
of the report dealing with
Chapter 10 of Report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil
Disorders, please be advised that the following represents a report
of that chapter as the same is broken dO'wn in the book itself.
The chapter is broken into two phases which shall be
discussed in seritam fashion.
·
The first phase concerns short range work which should
be done and after each suggestion, a comment will be made concerning
how the Law Department may aid in the implementation thereof.
(a)
Establish neighborh9od action task force - it is the
opinion of this department that we might do nothing effective with
respect to the implementation of this:
· (b)
Establish effective grievance - response mechanism -
it is the opinion of th e Law Departi:lent that we would be in a position
"
�I
to assist h ere in that should such grievance - response hearings
be held, an Associ a te City Attorney could be present in order to
det ermine whether or not any proposed action taken would be legally


-


..,
permissible.
(c)
I
.
Expand lega l services f0r the poor - inasmuch as
the function of the City Attorney's Office is to represent the
Mayor and Board of Aldermen, it is our opinion that this matter
should be best be left to the Atlanta Bar Association and related
agencies, such as, but not limited to, The Emory University School
of Law.
(s:l)
Financial · assistance - we do not feel we could be
of any assistance here.
(e)
Hearing ghetto problems and enacting appropriate
local legislation - we could be of assistance here as indicated
under (b) ( a&amp;:tl-n=b o-l] above.
(f)
residents -
Expand employment by City Governrrent of ghetto
this_ department would not be able to assist in this
part"icular function.
- - -- with respect to the long term recommendations set forth
in Chapter 10, and adopting the same format above set forth, this
is our response to those.
(a)
Establish neighborhood city halls · - the Law De-
-~
par t ment would in all prob ability not be of any assistance in
this r e sp ect.
(b)
Deve lop
mult i - service c ent ers - this appears
.,
to deal with such thi ngs as parks and rec reationa l faciliti es
�. and the Law Dep ar tment ·would in all probability not be in a
posi t ion to be of any assistance here.
(c)
Improve political rep r esentation~ _jt has long
beeri the opinion of this department, as the sami has been ·
.
.
expressed thr ough the City Attorney, that the disproportionate
representation cr eated by malapportioned wards is, if not
unconstitutiona l, a bad practice.
This is even though all
aldermen are elect e d. on a city-wide .basis.
Admittedly, the
law's present posture se~ms to . be. city-wide elections are
sufficient to take this situation out of any constitutionally
infirm probl_em ·areas; however, a recent case in the Supreme
·,
Court of the United States, coming out of Texas, and which we
have not had an opportunity to digest, might indicate that
opposition is not as sound as it was prior to the opinion
set forth in the case.
In any event, this department stands
ready, willing and able to assist in such legisiation as is
necessary to cure malapportioned
.
. wards.
(d)
More effective community participation - it is
doubtful that the Law Department could serve in this particular
function.
With respect to the specific questions asked in Para~
graph 2, we feel that ' (a), (b) and (c) have already been answered
in the analysis and as to estimating the probable _cos·t involved,
we deem that the functions which we would do, as the same are set
fo r th a bove, would be done without any incr eased cost to the City
of At l ant a over and abov e the retainer s curr ently being paid to
t he sever a l a t to r neys conne c ted with the Law Depart ment .
.,
�With respect to the third paragraph of the letter of
Mar ch 19, 196 8 from Mayor Allen to the several department heads,
the follo wing constitutes our response as the same concerns itself
with Chapt e r 13 of the report of the National Advisory Commission
on Civi l Disorder s.
A work is necessar y with respect to some of ·the considerat ion s rais e d in this chapter and how the same has been
analyz e d by this department.
In all probability the report pretty
well hits the nail on the head when it indicates in Chapter 13
that the handling and prosecution under a mass arrest situation is
t _o tally diff~r ent from any normal type of operation that obtains
in the several courts that would have jurisdi ction over the type
of offenses tha t are normally committed during times of riot and
violence.
Also, the report seems to hit the nail on the head
when it indicates tha~ the administration of justice is an
incomplete function when primary emphasis is placed on the quelling
of the riots and virtually no emphasis is placed upon the prosecu~
tion and conviction· of people who -i;-1ere involved in the riots. The
repor-t of this department will primarily concern itself with these
two featu r es of Chapter 13.
It is the feeling of this department that the City of
Atlanta have on a st?ndby b a sis, certain members of the local
bar to act as both pro haec vice judg es and prosecutors.
The
r eason no recommendation is being made with respect. to defense
coun s e l is that it is our f ee ling that the public de fender syst em
now e st ablished by the Fulton Sup erior Court is sufficient to take
c are o f :,th i s feat ur e of the administration of justice.
c
It is our
•
thinking tha t the lo cal b ar would ri se to the oc c as i on and tha t
�these services would be furnished the City of Atlania at no
cost to the City of Atlanta.
Inasmuch as· the cry goes up concerning police brutality
during post arrests, thi~ department · feels ' that responsible members
of the negro coITLmunity should have access to detention areas of
the city jail for the purp·ose of assuring the negro_ public
that no abuse of prisoners is taking _place.
As a concomitant
of this, of course, the police would not abuse prisoners.
Also, a matter ·which should be considered is the
p ssibility _of holding neighborhood courts for bendable and
I
•.
.
recognisance offenses in an effort to keep the jails to a normal
population.
The implementation of this recommendation would be
difficult; however, we might even go so far as to have the
basements of schools utilized during periods of crisis for the
purpose of having a judge set bond and for the pu~pose of having
representatives of the several bonding companies present.
In
addition to schools, perhaps other public buildings located near
the areas would be permissible for this type of situation.
As above set forth, one of the grave problems concerning
the aftermath of riots is that in very few instances have prosecutions which ensued as the resul:t of riots been successfully
carried forward to conviction.
We feel that this shortcoming might
in part be attributable to lack on the part of policemen of knowing
what state or local laws are violated in a riot situation.
To
this end, it is our thinking that a representative of the SolicitorGeneral!s office, the Solicitor of the Criminal Court of Fulton
-·


,


"
County and the City Attorney, acting as a team, make lectures
or talk s to the polic e force in ord er to refamiliarize th em with
�what does in fact constitute criminal activity in this area.
Also, it is respectfully requested that the poiice begin using
photographic equipment a~d motion _pictures in order that proper
demonstrative evidence might be used by the prosecution for
the conviction of people who violate the law in this type of
situation.
No recommendation is made with respect to bonding
inasmuch as it is our opinion that the criterion
rlready est~b1ished by the several judges of the Municipal
Court are sufficient.

�A MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR OF ATLANTA
REGARDTNG THK METROPOLITAN YOUTH OPPORTUNITY PROGRAM
The promise and future strength of this metropolis is in our youth.
Many youths, particularly those who live in slums and poverty, need special
help in improving their lives. and finding a place in the mainstream of our
. society.
You, as participants in the Youth Opportunity Program, face a
challenging task and a vital responsibility. Your task will be to strengthen,
improve and increase every existing public and private service and to enhance
the sound growth and guidance of youth.
With energy, patience and determination, you can have a major effect
on the planning and operation of programs which provide jobs, educa tion, recreation services, and other activities for our less advantaged young people.
This can be done through full cooperation and support from every
resource.
that
a jo
I want especially to stress the necessity of jobs. It is essential
very young person experience the challenge and satisfaction of holding
during the summer.
We must; of course, continue to build programs that meet the needs
of our youth on a year-round basis.

�ADULT VOLUNTEER PROGRAM
I. .
Introduction
A key to succ ess of the entire youth opportunity program will be the number
of volunteers recruit e d. The manpower needed to carry out the many activi-ties in this pro gram is too numerous to be obtained from the limited funds
available. Effort will be made to recruit, train and place a total of 500
full: iujd part time volunteers.
These volunteers will serve in a variety of ways: Camp counselors, employ- .
ment interviewers, game room supervisors, gym instructors, coaches, tµtors,
bus supervisors, homemake teachers, arts and crafts instructors, and hundreds
of other types of l eaders.
II.
Recruitment
Recruitment of volunteers will be prima rily through public media, speaking
engagements, brochures, and flyers. A full page ad will be placed in the
three major n ews papers. The Federal Government, Labor Unions, several trade
associatiops, professional organizations, churches, and religious groups
will be solicited for volunteer services. The Federal agencies are asking
all of its 27,000 volunteers to work in this program.
III.
Training
Training of the volunteers will be don e by VISTA, the American Red Cross,
and the us er agencies.
IV.
Plac ements
A special volunte er placement connnittee is presently at work and will ptace
the volunteers .
Spe cial Even ts
An import ant part of the Youth Opportunity Program will be special events .
Severa l special events will be planned and implemented by the individual agencies
and organi zations . The Sch ool and Recreation Department are now planning sp ec ial
events such as J r. Olympics, Field Days, Chattanooga-At lanta Games and other
similar events.
In addition, arrangements are being made to obtain tickets and admission to
movies, theaters , athletic events, and cultural activiti es. Bus ,·~-_p lane, train
. ,.,
- 8=
�and boat trips are b~ing arrang e d . Picnics, outings, and special sight - seeing
tours are be ing arranged. The Special Events Sub-Committee is being chaired by
Mr. st·eve Fox .
TRANSPORTATION
One of the most crucial and critical problems to be solved in the youth Opportunity
program is transportation. Ninety-five per cent of all the proposals submitted requires
transport~tion. The pr e s ent plan is to centralize all transportation and dispatch by
request and re gular routing . The buses will be obtaine d from the following sources:
The Atlanta Transit Company
The/ Third Army and Other Military .
The Fulton County Schools
The DeKalb County Schools
Fri ate owners of buse s us ed by the Counties
Chu ch owned buses
Th~ Greyhound Bus
Th Trailways Bus
Th Continental Trailways Bus
Th'e major Rail Companies
State National Guard
An estimate of the transportation needs is illustrate d by the requests made in submitted projects. An estimated $158,000 is needed to provide th e need e d transportation

Dear Dan:
I attach hereto our proposal to E.O.A. for summer Recreation,
Employment and Enrichment Program. You will note that the
cash requested exceeds $1,300,000. On April 5, 1968 we
were advised by Mr. Jim Parham, Director of E.O.A., that
only $590,000 would be available to fund all proposals
from private, as well as public agencies. We are asking
to receive 100% of all cash available, but even if this is
done, we will need supplemental financing by City funds.
The attached proposal is submitted to your attention relative
to the recently passed Ordinance requiring a review of all
proposals by the Review Application Board, the Finance
Corrnnittee, and the Department's respective Committee . The
Parks Committee of the Board of Aldermen on March 22, 1968
approved the submission o f the attached.
ncerely,

Recreation, Employment and Enrichment Program
From June 1, 1968, to September 2, 1968 (With certain programs
extending to December 31, 1968).

The geographic area to be covered is that portion of the City of Atlanta
designated by E. O. A. as Tar ge t Area ; plus, Fringe Areas which are borderline in respect to economic and social cla ssi f ications.
The persons to be s erved are f ive years of a ge to s e nior citizens; both
s exes, in-school a nd out-of -school.
V.
It is estimated that 150 participa nts each day will us e ea ch location. Plans
ca ll f or 140 loca tions to be s erved. Thus, 21,000 persons each day wi ll be
served. This f i gure doe s not i nc lude a c tiv iti e s such a s Award Day, audien.ces
f or band concerts, e tc., and other s pec tator a ctivities .
VI .
Many a r eas of the city a r e deficien t i n park and recreati on fa cili ties . This
f a ct had been clearly noted by the just comp l e t e d 1968-1983 Parks and
Recrea tion Pl an . Staf f of E. O. A. , Community Council, Ci ty Pl anning and
Department of Parks conducted t he study. The need f or the pr ogram covered by
this proposal i s clear ly e v i dent in the total a b sence of park and recreation
fa c ili ties in many targe t areas and t h e inadequa cy of facilities where they
do exis t . In resp onse t o these deficiencies , s ome 40 playlo ts have been
cons tructed and s taffed, u s i ng f or the most part , E. O. A. f unds. These
playlots f a il t o pr ovide full y ade~uate physical faci lities . Thus, s ome 62
school s wil l be u sed dur i ng the summer. The report Opportuni t y For Urban
Excellence cites a c lose corre l ation between a bsence of fac i lities and
incident of juveni l e delinquency.
VII.
A coordinator of summer activities will be employed by May 1, 1968. His
duties wi ll be to ·.initi~lly locate and recruit l eaders of ALL age levels in
ALL target areas to serve a s an Adv isory Counci l f or planning and development. The Coordinator will be assisted in recruitment by school counci l ors
�at 62 elementary and high school locations; by E. O. A. Neighborhood Service
Center Personnel; by the Community Council and by staff of Parks and Recreation
Department, Leaders representing not only their age group but their respective
neighborhoods will be asked to assist the staff in planning the summer program.
It is intended that each location (be it school, park or public housing project)
will have local preferences as to types of programs. However, it is assumed
that some identifiable basic list of prepared activities will emerge and
utilized as a base to insure "equal" programs on a city-wide basis.
The program will initially be developed on a .pilot basis with constant
evaluation by neighborhood leaders. Once assured of our acceptability and
desirability of a given activity, it will be offered city-wide for the
duration of the summer,
Heavy emphasis will be placed on employing disadvantaged citizens in the
operation of the program, Assignments of employment will range from
actually operational, such as Recreation Aides to Advisory and Representation
Roles in the various communities. It is planned that distinctive shirts will
be suppl:•.ed to teenagers wlu:- will serve as cadre on a voluntary basis, approximately 100 teenagers and young adults will be transported to Atlanta Wilderness
Camp each week to assist in its development while at camp. The young people
will be taught swimming, canoeing, camping, nature interpretation, etc,
VIII.
IX.
The project will have an overall Director, Assistant Director, Clerical
Staff, Recreation Leaders, Recreation Supervisors, Camp Directors, Enrichment
Personnel (Dance, Drama, Music, Arts and Craft). The number of poor youth ,
employed will be 336. Volunteers will exceed 100.
The program will cover all areas within the defined boundries of E. O. A's.
target zones. Some 140 locations will be staffed, using 62 schools and 78
parks and playlot locations. The hours of operation will be 9 A.M. - 9 P.M.,
Monday through Saturday. There will be a Central Headquarters located at
Central Junior High School, 232 Pryor Street, S. E. The central office will
coo r din,::i.te all Pa r k and Rec r eation Department and Atlanta Public School
Department's summer activites related to recreation, employment and cultural
enrichment for the disadvantaged. The Program Director will be in ove r all
charge of the project and will answer to a committee made up of School and
Parks personnel as well as advisory committee of citizens. Al l supplies,
e uipment, travel and transportaion, payroll, etc., will be handled a t the
Central Office, The City of Atlanta Purchasing Department will handle pu rchase
transactions when requisitioned by the Central Office. The Central Office will
maintain account records in order to h ave available current data. The Da t a
Processing Division of Atlanta Public Schools will be utilized if needed to
analyze problems, expenditures, p articipation, etc. It is imperative th at
the Central Office be staffed by May 1, 1968 in order to establish procedures,
communications with the neighborhood's recruitment and supply channels. This
Parks/Schools joint venture will carefully supplement and mesh with (1)
regular City recreation problems, (2) Community Schools, (3) work - study and
vocational education, (4) Title I Pro gr ams, (5) Neighborhood Youth Corps InSchool Enrollees, (6) contributing private agencies, (7) Academic Summer Schoo l
Pr ogram (8) Head Start, (9) individual contributions, (10) other public agenc y
c ontribu tions. The At l anta Children and You t h Council will s erve as overall
�coordinator acting for and with Mayor's Council on Youth Opportunity to
see that all other support agencies are carefully coordinated with the
City's program. This project will not pre-emp, but rather supplement
r egular City programs. Without Federa l Funds, much, if not all, of the
planned activities for disadvantaged areas would be curtailed, Thus,
this Community Action Program complements the total City program.
Youth, young adults, adults and senior citizens will assist in planning
the program, its operation, and evaluation. Of special emphasis will be
a ge group 5-25 years with the greatest attention directed to the teenager
and young adult. The school drop-out, the potentia l drop-out, those wi t h
no immediate source of income, those with no positive contacts with Social
Service Agencies, and those with no consistent work history on marketable
skills will be located and employed by Central Office as an initial step in
structuring and planning the program. Allocation of job slots will be based
on geographical distribution and population so that all target areas wi l l
contribute. The Neighborhood Service Center, School Counselors and Soci a l
Agencies will be invited to assist in locating and screening applicant s.
A police record will not necessarily preclude employment, but the Director's
judgement will prevail in cases involving morals, and in particular, s exua l
offenses. There will be no formal Civil Service Examination; selection will
be based on (1) need for employment as outlined above, (2) neighborhood
identification, (3) leadership a bility, and (4) skills that can contr i but e
t o the progr am. The Pro gr am Dir ector will name fin a l selection and a s s i gnment. Arrangements will be made for medical physicals to be given each
applicant. Medical problems will be reported to Fulton County Medical
Department for follow-up. Medical prot lems will not necessarily bar
employment, but rather serve as a guide in a ssignments.
Five recreation districts will be established and supe rvis ed by re gular
Park/School personnel. Youth will be u sed a s Aide s in e a ch dis t rict
office (as well as Control Office), each school and each park area.

Constant monitoring and evaluation by Citizens' Advisory Committee
as well as staff of School Board and Parks Department.
This project compliments and extends normal agency program and fills
gaps and deficiencies existing in disadvantaged areas. In addition
to service to the .poor, the program will clearly illustrate to the
city and its citizens what can be done with sufficient financing.
It can not be stated a t this time what part of this program will be
continued once federal funding is completed. However, on two previous
occasions, the ~City has continued parts of O.E.O. financed funding.

I am enclosing a copy of a Sunnner Recreation Program which has been developed
jointly by the Parks Department, Sch:&gt;ol Department, and others. This application has been approved by the Grant Review Board and has been submitted to
EOA for funding.
You will note in your review of the program that the total program amounts
to $1,826,469 with $487,690 being made up of non-cash grants-in-aid which
are being furnished by the city and/or the Atlanta Board of Education. Funds
for most of the items have already been appropriated, and there will be
little additional need to undertake the program if the federal government
allocates their $1,338,779 through EOA.
Correspondence and discussions with Mr. Delius indicate that the total available funds from EOA for the entire metropolitan region will amount to
$590,000 which indicates that the program must be considerably curtailed if
it is to be kept within the present appropriations.
We should have an answer from EOA very shortly so a decision may be made as
to the funding of this program.
I am also enclosing a copy of a letter dated April 21, 1968, to Mayor Allen
from Mr. Delius regarding the sununer program for your further information.

Recreation, Employment and Enrichment Program
From June 1, 1968, to September 2, 1968 (W~th certain programs
extending to December 31, 1968).
(a)
Department of Parks and Recreation, City of Atlanta, Georgia, (In
conjunction with Atlanta Public Schools), City Hall Annex,
260 Central Avenue, S. W., Atlanta, Georgia , 30303 (Public).
Ja. 2-4463, Ext. 311.

The geographic are a to be cover ed is tha t portion of the City of Atlan t a
designated by E. O. A. as Target Area ; plus , Fringe Areas which are borderline in respect to economic and social class ifica tions .
The persons to be served are five years of age to s enior c i tizens ; both
sexes, in-school and out-of-school.
v.
It · is estima t e d tha t 150 participants each day will use each location. Plans
ca ll for 140 loca tions to be s erved. Thus, 21,000 persons each day wi ll be
s erved. This figure does no t inc lude activi ties such as Award Day, aud i ei'J.ces
for band concer ts, etc., and other spectator activi ties .
VI.
Many areas of the city are deficient in park and recreation faci lities . This
fact ha d been clear ly noted by the just comp l eted 1968- 1983 Parks and
Recreation Plan. Staff of E. O. A., Community Council, City Planning and
Departmen t of Parks conduc ted the study . The need for the program covered by
this proposal is clearly evident in the total absence of park and recreation
facilities in many target areas and the inadequacy of faciliti es where they
do exist. In response to these deficienci es , some 40 playlo ts have been
constructed and staffed, using for t he most par t, E. O. A; funds. These
playlots fail to provide fully ade~uate physical faci li ties . Thus, some 62
schools will be used during the summer. The report Opportunity For Urban
Exce llence cites a close correlation be tween absence of facilities and
incident of juvenile de linquency.
VII.
\
A coordinator of SUITu~er activities will be emp loyed by May 1, 1968. His
duties will be to'.initi~lly locate and recruit leader s of ALL age leve ls in
ALL target areas to serve as an Advisory _C ouncil for planning and deve lop ment. The Coordinator will be assisted in recruitment by school councilors
�-
I
at 62 elementary and high school locations; by E. O. A. Neighborhood Service
Center Personnel; by the Community Council and by staff of Parks and Recreation
Department. Leaders repre sen ting not only their age group but their respective
neighborhoods will be a sked to assist the staff in planning the sumi~ er program.
It is intended that each location (be it school, park or public housing project)
will have local preferences as to types of programs. However, it is assumed
that some identifiable basic list of prepared activities will emerge and
U;tilized as a base to insure "equal" programs on a · city-wide basis.
The program will initially be developed on 'a .pilot basis with constant
evaluation by neighborhood leaders. Once assured of our acceptability and
desirability of a given activity, it will be offered city-wide for the
duration of the summer.
Heavy emphasis will be placed on employing disadvantaged citizens in the
operation of the program. Assignme nts of employment will range from
actually operational, such as Recrea tion Aides to Advisory and Repre sentation
Roles in the various communities. It is planned that distinctive · shirts wiil
be suppl5.ed to teenagers wlH-:- will serve as cadre on a voluntary basis, approximately 1100 teenagers and young adults will be transported to Atlanta Wilderness
Camp each week to assist in its development while at camp. The young people
will be taught swimming, canoeing, camping, nature interpretation, etc,
VIII.
IX.
\
The . project will have an overall Dire ctor, Assistant Director, Clerical
Staff, Recreation Leaders, Recreation Supervisors, Camp Directors, Enrichment
Personnel (Dance, Drama, Music, Arts and Craft). The number of poor youth,
employed will be 336. Volunteers will exceed 100.
The program will cover all areas within the defined boundries of E. O. A's.
target zone s. Some 140 loc a tions will be st a ff ed, using 62 schools and 78
parks and pl aylot locations. The hours of ope r a tion will be 9 A.M. - 9 P.M.,
Monday through Saturday. There will be a Central Headquarters located at
Central Junior High School, 232 Pryor Street, S. E. The central office will

Parks pe rsonne l as well a s adviso r y committee of citi zens. All supplies ,
e uipment, travel and transportaion, payroll, etc., will be handled at the
Central Office. The City of Atlanta Purch asing Department will handl e purchase
transactions when requisitioned by the Ce nt r a l Of fice. The Ce nt ral Off ice will
maintain account reco r d s in order to h ave av a il able current d a t a . The Da t a

Pr o gram ( 8) Head Start , ( 9) i nd ividua l contributions , ( 10) o t he r publ ic agency
contri bu tions . The Atl an t a Children and Youth Counc il wi ll serve as ove rall
�coordinator acting for and with Mayor's Council on Youth Opportunity to
see that all other support agencies are carefully coordinated with the
City's program. This project will not pre-emp, but rather supplement
regular City programs. Without Federal Funds, much, if not all, of the
planned activities for disadvantaged areas would be curtailed. Thus,
this Community Action Program complements the total City program.
Youth, young adults, adults and senior citizens will assist in planning
the program, its operation, and evaluation. Of special emphasis will be
age ·group 5-25 years with the greatest attention directed to the teenager
and young adult. The school drop-out, the potential drop-out, those with
no immediate source of income, those with no positive contacts with Social
Service Agencies, and those with no consistent work history on marketable
skills will be located and employed by Central Office as an initial step in
structuring and planning the program. Allocation of job slots will be based
on geographical distrtbution and population so that all target areas will
contribute. The Neighborhood Service Center, School Counselors and Social
Agencies will be invited to assist in locating and screening applicants.
A police record will not necessarily preclude employment, but the Director's
judgement will prevail in cases involving morals, and in particular, sexual
offenses. There will be no formal Civil Service Examination; selection will
be based on (1) need for employ,ne.nt as outlined above, (2) neighborhood
identification, (3) leadership ability, and (4) skills that can contribute
to the program. The Program Director will name final selection and assignment. Arrangements will be made for medical physicals to be given each
applicant. Medical problems will be reported to Fulton County Medical
Department for follow-up. Medical pro;;, lems will not necessarily bar
employment, but rather serve as a guide in assignments.
Five recreation districts will be established and supervised by regular
Park/School personnel. Youth will be used as Aides in each district
office (as well as Control Office), each school and each park area.

Creative Rhytmics

Constant monitoring and evaluation by Citizens' Advisory Committee
as well as staff of School Board and Parks Department.
This project compliments and extends normal agency program and fills
gaps and deficiencies existing in disadvantaged areas. In addition
to service to the .poor, the program will clearly illustrate to the
city and its citizens what can be done with sufficient financing.
It can not be stated ~t this time what part of this program will be
continued once federal funding is completed. However, on two previous
occasions, the _·_city has continued parts of O,E. 0, financed funding.

Subject:
Summer Program of Recreation., Employment and Enrichment
for the Disadvantaged Citizens of the City of Atlanta
Dear Mr. Allen:
'
As you know, we have presented to E.O.A., Inc. our proposal., in
cooperation with the Atlanta School System, to conduct a special
program ot recreation, employment and enrichment for the disadvantaged citizens of the City of Atlanta. We propose to begin the
project June 1 and terminate it around Labor Day. In the next
few days we intend to select and employ a coordinator/dire ctor for
the program so that the central o ffice for this program can be fully
functioning well before June 1. Mr. John Cox , of the Atlanta Youth
Council~ has agreed with the undersigned to supply funds for the
purppse of employing the coordinator/director and basic staff for
the central office. The selection of a director and other personnel
will be a cooperative venture on the part of the Departme nt of Parks
and the Atlanta School system.
,
I
Our proposal to E.O.A. exceeds $1.,300.,000 and calls for the operation
of a total . of 140 locations within the target areas as defined by
E.O.A. Some 62 of the locations are elementary and high school
sites. On April 19, 1968, we were advised by Mr. Dan sweat of your
office that the total funds available for this project including
E.O.A. grant s and spe cial appropriations from City Hall would
amount to $600,000 o Mr. sweat r equ est e d at that- time hat we b egin
to scale down our budget to come within this figure . Accordingly,
we are developing a new budge to It is my understanding that the
City of Atlanta Department of Parks will not be able to receive
substantially all of the funds made avai l able to E~O.A. for summer
projects. In other words, other agencies (private and semi- public)
will b e funde d for various types of programso

Dear Charles:
I am enclosing our proposal to E . O.A. for summer Recreation,
Employment and Enrichment Program. You will note that the
federal cash requested is in excess of $1,300,000. We were
advised on April 5, 1968 by Mr. Jim Parham, the Director of
E .o .A., that only $.~~ 0 , 000 would be available for all agency
f unding. Thus, if we were to receive 100°/o of all available
E.O.A. cash (we are making such a request), we would still
be deficient many thousands o f dollars. I am assuming that
the City of Atlanta can supplement our E.O.A. grant to some
extent. Obviously, some items can be reduced or perhaps
eliminated in the attached proposal.
The proposal is sent to your attention per the recent ordinance
requiring a review o f proposals by the Finance Committee, my
Department's Committee, and the Application Review Board.
incerely,

Th e geographic area to be cover ed is tha t portion of the City of Atlanta
desi gnated by E. O. A. as Tar ge t Ar ea; plus, Fringe Areas which are borde rline in respect to economic and social classifications.
The persons to be serve d are f ive years of age to senior citizens; both
s exe s, in-school and out-o f -school.
V.
I t is estima ted that 150 participants each da y will us e each location. Plans
ca ll for 140 locations to be s erve d. Thus, 21,000 persons each day wi ll be
s erved. Th is f i gure does not i nclude a cti vit ie s such as Award Day, audience s
f or band concerts, e tc., and ot her spe ctator a ctivitie s.
VI.
Many a r eas of the city are def ici ent i n pa rk and recrea tion fa c i litie s . This
fa c t had been clearly noted by the just comple t e d 1968 -1 983 Parks and
Re creati on Plan . Sta ff of E. 0. A., Community Council, Ci ty Planning and
Departmen t of Pa r ks conducted t he s t udy, The need f or th e pr ogram cover ed by
th i s pr opos a l is c lear ly evid ent i n the t otal abs ~~ce of park a nd re crea tion
fa c il i ties in many t arge t areas and t he i na de qua cy of fa ci l i ties where they
do ex i st . I n re spons e to the s e defi c ienc ie s , some 40 p laylots have been
c onstruc ted a nd s taf f ed, us i ng f or the mos t part, E. O. A. fund s . These
playlo ts fail t o pr ovide f ul ly ade~uate phys i cal fa ci li t ies. Thus, s ome 62
s ch oo l s will be used dur i ng t he summer. The repor t Opportunity For Ur ban
Excellence c i t e s a cl os e correlation between abs ence of f a cilities and
incident of j uvenile de l inquency.
VII.
A coordinat or of summer activiti e s will be emp l oyed by May 1, 1968 . His
duties will be to ·.initi? lly locate and r ecruit leaders of ALL a ge level s i n
ALL t arget a r eas t o serve as an Advisor y Council f or planning and develop- ,
ment. The Coordinator wi l l be assisted in r ecr uitment by s choo l c ouncilors
�at 62 elementary and high school locations; by E. O. A. Neighborhood Service
Center Personnel; by the Community Council and by staff of Parks and Recreation
Department. Leaders representing not only their age group but their respective
neighborhoods will be asked to assist the staff in planning the surrnner pro gram .
It is intended that each location (be it school, park or public housing project)
will have local preferences as to types of programs. However, it is assumed
that some identifiable basic list of prepared activities will emerge and
1.1:tilized as a base to insure "equal" programs on a city-wide basis.
The program will initially be developed on ·a .pilot basis with constant
evaluation by neighborhood leaders. Once assured of our acceptability and
desirability of a given activity, it will be offered city-wide for the
duration of the summer.
Heavy emphasis will be placed on employing disadvantaged citizens in the
operation of the program. Assignments of employment will range from
actually operational, such as Recreation Aides to Advisory and Representation
Roles in the various communities. It is planned that distinctive shirts will
be supplied to teenagers ~10 will serve as cadre on a voluntary basis, approximately 1lOO teenagers and young adults will be transported to Atlanta Wilderness
Camp each week to assist in its development while at camp. The young people
will be taught swimming, canoeing, camping, nature interpretation, etc.
VIII.
IX.
The project will have an overall Director, Assistant Director, Clerical
Staff, Recreation Leaders, Recreation Supervisors, Camp Directors, Enrichment
Personnel (Dance, Drama, Music, Arts and Craft). The number of poor youth ,
employed will be 336. Volunteers will exceed 100.
The program will cover all areas within the defined boundries of E. O. A's.
target zones. Some 140 locations will be staffed, using 62 schools and 78
parks and playlot locations. The hours of operation will be 9 A.M. - 9 P.M.,
Monday through Saturday. There will be a Central Headquarters located at
Central Junior High School, 232 Pryor Street, S. E. The central office will
coo:r.dirni.te all Pa r k and Recreation Department and Atlanta Public School
Department's summer activites related to recreation, employment and cultural
enrichment for the disadvantaged. The Program Director will be in overall
charge of the project and wil l answer to a committee made up of School and
Parks personnel as well as advisory committee of citizens. All supplies,
e uipment, travel and transportaion, payroll, etc., will be handled at the
Central Office. The City of Atlanta Purchasing Department will handle purchase
transactions when requisitioned by the Central Office. The Central Office will
maintain account records in order to have available current data. The Data
Processing Division of Atlanta Public School s ,·;ri ll be utili zed if needed to
analyze problems, expenditures, participation, etc. It is imperative that
the Central Office be staffed by May 1, 1968 in order to establish procedures,
communications with the neighborhood's recruitment and supply channels. This
Parks/Schools joint venture will carefull y supplement and mesh with (1)
regular City recreation problems, (2) Community Schools, (3) work-study and
vocational education, (4) Title I Programs, (5) Neighborhood Youth Corps InSchool Enrollees, (6) contributing private agencies, (7) Academic Summer School.
Program (8) Head Start, (9) individual contributions, (10) other public agency
contributions . The Atlanta Children and Youth Council will serve as overall
�coordinator acting for and with Mayor's Council on Youth Opportunity to
see that all other support agencies are c arefully coordinated with the
City's pro gram. This project will not pre-emp, but rather supplement
regular City programs. Without Federal Funds, much, if not all, of the
planned activities for disadvantaged areas would be curtailed. Thus,
this Community Action Program complements the total City program.
Youth, young adults, adults and senior citizens will assist in planning
the program, its operation, and evaluation. Of special emphasis will be
age group 5-25 years with the greatest attention directed to the teenager
and young adult. The school drop-out, the potential drop-out, those with
no immediate source of income, those with no positive cont a cts with Social
Service Agencies, and those with no consistent work history on marketable
skills will be located and employed by Central Office as an initial step in
structuring and planning the program. Allocation of job slots will be based
on geographical distribution and population so that all target areas will
contribute. The Neighborhood Service Center, School Counselors and Social
Agencies will be invited to assist in locating and screening applic ants .
A police record will not necessarily preclude employment, but the Direc tor's
judgement will prevail in cases involving morals, and in particular, sexual
offenses. There will be no formal Civil Service Examination; selection will
be based on (1) need for employillent as outlined above, (2) neighborhood
identification, (3) le adership ability, and (4) skills tha t c an contribute
to the program. The Pro gram Director will name final selection and assignment. Arrangements will be made for medical physicals to be given each
applicant. Medical problems will be reported to Fulton County Medical
Department for follow-up. Medical pro;.?lems will not necessarily bar
employment, but rather serve as a guide in assignments.
Five recreation districts will be established and supervised by r egular
Park /School personnel. Youth will be used as Aides in each district
office (as well as Control Office), each school and each park area.

Crea tive Rhytmics

Constant monitoring and evaluation by Citizens' Advisory Corrnnittee
as well as staff of School Board and Parks Department.
This project compliments and extends normal agency program and fills
gaps and deficiencies existing in disadvantaged areas. In addition
to service to the .poor, the pro gram will clearly illustrate to the
city and its citizens what can be done with sufficient financin g .
It can not be stated a t this time what part of this program will be
continued once federal funding is completed. However, on two previous
occasi6ns, the j:;ity has continued parts of O.E.O. financed funding.

LEGAL SERVICES SHOULD BE MAIN VEHICLE FOR REDRESS OF GRIEVANCES OF
POOR; ADVISORY GROUP SAYS

 

An advisory group of 24 directors of OEO-funded ‘Legal Services Programs
(LSP) across the country has recommended that the President establish
as a national policy that LSP projects are "a primary organ" for aiding
poor people to express and obtain redress of their grievances.

The committee also recommended that Legal Services projects be involved
in all national and local planning aimed at avoiding civil disturbances
or at minimizing the scope and duration of such disturbances if they
occur,

The Project Advisory Group, of the Legal Services Program also recommended
the establishment of a national task force composed of Legal Services
lawyers who have had experience in the slum communities during civil
disorders to consult with elected officials, law enforcement officials,
members of the judiciary, LSP directors and bar associations in urban
communities on ways to prevent disturbances and to minimize their

effects if they occur.

The new advisory group drafted the recommendations as a result of its
discussions March 1 about what Legal Services projects could do to
prevent or to calm civil disorders. The group met with officials of
the OEO Legal Services Program. (A copy of the recommendations is
attached.)

The subcommittee that drafted the recommendations was chaired by
Oliver Lofton, director of the Newark Legal Services Project, and
included directors of LSPs in Detroit, Cleveland, Miami, Los Angeles
and Dallas.

The relevance of the work of Legal Services Programs in the prevention
and the calming of civil disorders is discussed on Page 1022, Chapter 10,
of the report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders,

Some 250 local Legal Services projects in 48 states, and in 45 of the
50 largest cities, provide counsel and representation in civil matters
to poor clients and to groups of poor people seeking to obtain their
rights and redress of their grievances. Legal Services Projects
played an important role in preventing and calming disorders last

MONDAY, MARCH 4, 1968
PROJECT ADVISORY GROUP OF LEGAL SERVICES PROGRAf.f
Recommendations on
Legal Services and the "Long Hot Surrnner"
The Advisory Group, having the benefit of the advice of Legal Services
Projects that played a positive role in cities that experienced civil
disturbances in the summers of 1966 and 1967, and believing that most
civil disorders in recent years have arisen in communities where serious
legitimate grievances of alienated people have not been met; b elieving
furth er that mass ive disord er has often resulted in such conrrnunities
from seemingly minor incidents because responsible public officials
failed quickly to redress the grievance complained of, and being
deeply concerne d because our system of laws has largely failed to
correct the just grievances of tho se who experience poverty and
discrimination, makes the following recommendations:
1.
National Policy Statement - the Advisory Group ~trongl y ur ges
that the Presiden t of the United States, the Attorney General
of the United States, anG th e Director of the Office of
Economic Opportunity issue a national policy statement that
federally f unded OEO Legal Services projects are a primary
organ for assisting indigent people to express their grievances and to obtain redre ss through existing l egitimate
avenue s ; and seek to create new ways of p:;.:otecting their
rights and effectively redres s ing their wrongs.
Legal Services projects should be involved i~ alt national
and local planning pro~edures concerned with the avoidance
of civ i l distu rbances and with minimizing the scope and
durat ion of such disturb a nces should they occur. This policy
statement should be sent to the Governo rs of the respective
states, the mayors of the cities, local police officials,
appropriate membe rs of the Judiciary, and all others concerned with this problem.
( More)
�- 2 -
2.
National Task Force - The Legal Services Program of the OEO
should promptly establish a National Task Force composed of
Legal Service attorney s who have had experience in the indigent community during the course of civil disturban~e, to
consult, across the country, with Legal Services project
directors in urban corrnnunities and with elected officials,
law enforcement administrators , members of the judiciary,
and leaders of local bar associations concerning the most
effective ways to prevent civil disturbances and to minimize
the effects should civil disturbances occur.
3.
Legal Services Staff - In order for a Legal Services Prog ram
to effectively articulate the grievances.of the indigent population it must have on its staff at least one p~rson who has
the respect and confidence of people representing the most
disadvantaged areas of the community. The OEO should mak~
maximum effort to assure that at least one such person can
be employed as a part of every urban Legal Services Program.
4.
Responsible Staff Member - That Legal Services project
directors should promptly designate one member of their staff
to be re s ponsible for developing plans and implementing a program for the prevention of civil disturbance and further to
insur e the maint enance of basic legal rights in the event that
civil disturbances should occur,
5.
Preventing Civil Disturbances - That as a part ·of any program
for preventing civil disturbances, Legal Services projects
should:
(a)
vigorously articulat e the grievances of the members
of the community and seek r edress through existing
legitimate channe ls; and seek to create new ways of
protecting the rights and effectivAly redressing their
wrongs;
(b)
endeavor to make ·1aw enforcement officials aware of
the kinds of polic e conduct which can provoke the indigents out of which civil disturb a nces can arise ;
(c)
establish ch anne ls of communication with law enforcement and othe r public officials and develop methods
th rough wh i .::h grievances arising out of provocative
incidents can be r eso lve d.

PROJECT ADVISORY GROUP OF LEGAL SERVICES PROGRAM
Reconmendations on

Legal Services and the "Long Hot Summer"

 

The Advisory Group, having the benefit of the advice of Legal Services
Projects that played a positive role in cities that experienced civil
disturbances in the summers of 1966 and 1967, and believing that most
civil disorders in recent years have arisen in communities where serious
legitimate grievances of alienated people have not been met; believing
further that massive disorder has often resulted in such communities
from seemingly minor incidents because responsible public officials
failed quickly to redress the grievance complained of, and being
deeply concerned because our system of laws has largely failed to
correct the just grievances of those who experience poverty and
discrimination, makes the following recommendations:

1. National Policy Statement - the Advisory Group strongly urges
that the President of the United States, the Attorney General
of the United States, and the Director of the Office of
Economic Opportunity issue a national policy statement that
federally funded OEO Legal Services projects are a primary
organ for assisting indigent people to express their griev-
ances and to obtain redress through existing legitimate
avenues; and seek to create new ways of protecting their
rights and effectively redressing their wrongs.

 

Legal Services projects should be involved in all national
and local planning procedures concerned with the avoidance

of civil disturbances and with minimizing the scope and
duration of such disturbances should they occur. This policy
statement should be sent to the Governors of the respective
states, the mayors of the cities, local police officials,
appropriate members of the Judiciary, and all others con-
cerned with this problem,

National Task Force - The Legal Services Program of the OEO
should promptly establish a National Task Force composed of
Legal Service attorneys who have had experience in the in-
digent community during the course of civil disturbance, to
consult, across the country, with Legal Services project
directors in urban communities and with elected officials,
law enforcement administrators, members of the judiciary,
and leaders of local bar associations concerning the most
effective ways to prevent civil disturbances and to minimize
the effects should civil disturbances occur.

Legal Services Staff - In order for a Legal Services Program
to effectively articulate the grievances of the indigent pop-
ulation it must have on its staff at least one person who has
the respect and confidence of people representing the most
disadvantaged areas of the community. The OEO should make
maximum effort to assure that at least one such person can
be employed as a part of every urban Legal Services Program.

 

Responsible Staff Member - That Legal Services project
directors should promptly designate one member of their staff
to be responsible for developing plans and implementing a pro-
gram for the prevention of civil disturbance and further to
insure the maintenance of basic legal rights in the event that
civil disturbances should occur.

 

Preventing Civil Disturbances - That as a part of any program

 

for preventing civil disturbances, Legal Services projects
should:

(a) vigorously articulate the grievances of the members
of the community and seek redress through existing
legitimate channels; and seek to create new ways of
protecting the rights and effectively redressing their
wrongs;

(b) endeavor to make law enforcement officials aware of
the kinds of police conduct which can provoke the in-
digents out of which civil disturbances can arise;

(c) establish channels of communication with law enforce-
ment and other public officials and develop methods
through which grievances arising out of provocative
incidents can be resolved,

Dear Mayor Allen:
As you may know, the Atlanta Legal Aid Society has recently
embarked upon a significant expansion of its servic·e s, raising
the number of its offices from three to six and the size of
its legal staff from ten to twenty-two. This expansion has
been made possible not only by the generosity of the city,
the county and the United Appeal, but also by the hundreds
of individual citizens who have volunteered their time, and
money, for the benefit of the Society and its clients.
Perhaps most important of all, our grant from OEO has now
been increased to approximately $355,000.00 per ~ear, making
out total budget for 1968 almost $525,000.00.
The Legal Aid Society is dedicated to representing and providing
advocacy for the thousands of indigents who mme through its
doors each year. But as an OEO funded program, we have a larger
responsibility than merely providing servic es to large numbers
of people. We must, as a matter of poljcy and wisdom, remain
in touch with the grievances of our client population, and we
must provide a legitimate, constructive and controlled outlet for those grievanc e s. Simply put, because we oppose riots,
we must utilize out talents and facilities to prevent them.
The purpose of this letter is to acquaint you with these views,
and to place at your disposal the entire resources of the
Atlanta Legal Aid Society for the resolution of any grievances
known to you or your administration that affects our client
population.
The Lega l Aid Society has a long record of service to the poor
people of Fulton County.
In past years, it has repres e nted
tens of thou sands of indigents , and in recent weeks it has
recorded some e x citing new triumphs, including its succ2ssful
attack on the Stat e 's substitute father rule. According to
Dire ctor Burson, that one l awsuit gave immediate b enef its to
some 1,500 persons who would otherwise have be e n d en i ed welfare .

-2-
March 29, 1968
I think it can fairly be said that we have begun to establish
our credentials with the poor of our city, and I hope our
reputation with our client population will grow as time goes on.
But it is equally important that we make clear our respect for
and dedication to the welfare of the city of Atlanta. Specifically,
I have enclosed for your interest a copy of a resolution enacted by the OEO Project Directors Advisory Committee
indicating some of the ways in which legal services programs
can be useful to cities in riot prevention. I would like to
take this opportunity to urge you or your staff to call upon
me or any member of my staff to assist you in implementing these
suggestions, or for any other reason you may deem appropriate.
As you know, our obligations to our clients may require us
at some time to disagree with the city on certain matters.
We may even find ourselves on opposite sides of an issue in
a court of law .
I can assure you that I will be at pains to
avoid any such disagreements with the city, and should a disagreement ever arise between us, it will be handled by this
office in a ITa\nner consistent with the spirit of this letter:
a spirit of respect for the city and dedication to the . interests of our clients.
I look forward to meeting you in the near future.

Dear Mayor Allen:
Referen c e is made to the r~quirement that your Plan £or Civil
Distur b ance s be updated by 1 April 19680 In this connection,
I have checked wi th Superintendent Moseley 0£ the Police ·De partrnent, who states the Police Plan is effective and no
important cha nge s are ne ededo Chief Hildebrand has t wo ass istants improving his plan in coordination with t he Georg ia
Nat ional Guardo Based on the experiences from riots in other
cities last summer, Chief Hildebrand and I recommend the fireme n not be used for traffic controlo The pl an £or Disaster
Medica l Care has been published , b u t is not yet · approved by
the Fulton, DeKalb and Cobb County authoritieso The important
thing is that Grady Hospita l is n oN b etter p repared to coordinate medical services. A copy 0£ this Plan is attached f o r
your approval (TAB A)o I recommend approval.
We have also prepare d an overall "Atlanta Pl,:'.n f or Cont rol o:f
Civil Disturbances" in dra.ft form o Copy attached ( T;iB B) • This
Plan cannot be fina l ized until it is fu lly coordinated with the
local Departments and the National Guard. I do·· not recoIDID.end
approval except for planning pur poses.
On 19 April 1968, Frida y afternoon , (1: 3 0 p.m. ) at the Civil
Defense Emerge ncy Operations Center , we will b rief Police, Fire ,
Medical and CD personnel £or participation in the Na tional Guard
CPEX to be held Saturda y and Sunda y, 20-21 Apri l, in which I

their area o f responsibilit y and mission as r e quire d by the

course I will get recommendations from the police playing the

considered, depending upon the situation at the time. This
plan provides for the City Auditorium, 30 Courtland Street,
to be used as an alternate Comma nd Posto For many obvious
reasons, I believe it b e st £or the National Guard Headquarters
group to be here rather than in City Hall, o r the Police Headquarters buildingo I believe City Hall should be the symbol
for impleme nting the h umanitarian recommendations of the
National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders and not ·the
combat Hea dquarters for control of civil disturbances that

recommend you approve our planning to use selected parts
of the Auditorium :for the advanced Command Post, if and when

1 April 1968

The Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor, City of Atlanta

City Hall

Atlanta, Georgia 30305

Dear Mayor Allen:

Reference is made to the requirement that your Plan for Civil
Disturbances be updated by 1 April 1968. In this connection,
I have checked with Superintendent Moseley of the Police De-
partment, who states the Police Plan is effective and no
important changes are needed. Chief Hildebrand has two assis-
tants improving his plan in coordination with the Georgia
National Guard. Based on the experiences from riots in other
cities last summer, Chief Hildebrand and I recommend the fire-
men not be used for traffic control. The plan for Disaster
Medical Care has been published, but is not yet approved by
the Fulton, DeKalb and Cobb County authorities. The important
thing is that Grady Hospital is now better prepared to coordi-
nate medical services. A copy of this Plan is attached for
your approval (TAB A). I recommend approval.

We have also prepared an overall "Atlanta Plan for Control of
Civil Disturbances" in draft form. Copy attached (TAB B)e This
Plan cannot be finalized until it is fully coordinated with the
local Departments and the National Guard. I do not recommend
approval except for planning purposes.

On 19 April 1968, Friday afternoon, (1:30 p.m.) at the Civil
Defense Emergency Operations Center, we will brief Police, Fire,
Medical and CD personnel for participation in the National Guard
CPEX to be held Satuxday and Sunday, 20-21 April, in which I
have been asked to represent you, unless you would like to be
presente My main job will be to define, for the National Guard,
their area of responsibility and mission as required by the
Memorandum of Understanding between you and General Hearn. Of
course I will get recommendations from the police playing the
problem.

I have obtained a draft copy of the latest plan prepared by the
Georgia National Guard, copy not attached. For planning purposes
Task Force North is to use Chastain Memorial Park and Task Force
Southwest =- Lakewood Park. Obviously other sites must be
-

considered, depending upon the situation at the time. This
plan provides for the City Auditorium, 30 Courtland Street,

to be used as an alternate Command Post. For many obvious
reasons, I believe it best for the National Guard Headquarters
group to be here rather than in City Hall, or the Police Head-~
quarters building. I believe City Hall should be the symbol
for implementing the humanitarian recommendations of the
National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders and not ‘the
combat Headquarters for control of civil disturbances that
bring hatxed and strife.

recommend you approve our planning to use selected parts
of the Auditorium for the advanced Command. Post, if and when
the National Guard is called to active duty in Atlanta.

I have also enclosed (TAB C) a tentative seating arrangement

‘for activation of our Civil Defense EOC room. You will note

that all important departments and agencies are represented
in order that central coordination may be practiced. Failure
to have central coordination will create many unnecessary

problems.

DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING
COLLIER B. GLADIN, Director

April 2, 1968

|Planning Staff Revort:

The Report of the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders,
Chapter 17, “Housing".

In response to the Mayor's request, we are submitting for your

consideration our thinking and recommendation relative to the Housing
section, Chapter 17 of the report of the National Advisory Committee
on Civil Disorders.

Basically, this section contains recommendations for national

action. At the heart of the section is a recommendation for the
enactment of a comprehensive and enforceable federal openshousing law
to cover the sale or rental of all housing, including single-family
homes. The Planning Department would support such a national law,
however, we would not support local legislation in this’ regard until
after national policy has been established.

have

Many of the following recommendations for national action we
endorsed previously, namely:

Expansion and modification of the rent supplement programs to
permit use of supplements for existing housing.

Expansion and modification of the below-market interest rate
program to enlarge the interest subsidy to all sponsors and
provide interest-free loans to non=profit sponsors to cover
pre-construction costs, and permit sale of projects to none
profit corporations, cooperatives, or condominiums.

Expansion of the public housing program with emphasis on small
units on scattered sites, and leasing and "turnkey" progrems.

We have reservations about the following recommendations. More

information and/or time is needed in order to assess them,
Planning Staff Report
Page 2
April 2, 1968

-= Creation of an ownership supplement program similar to present rent
supplements, to make home ownership possible for low-income families.

Question = How would it work? Whet are its ramifications? Costs?

== Federal write-down of interest rates on loans to private builders
constructing moderate rent housing.

Question = How would it work? What are its ramifications? Costs?

~-- Expansion of Model Cities Program. To date the theory of this
program has been most appealing. However, its much to early to
talk of expansion without more experience in execution.

-« Expansion and reorientation of the urban renewal program to give
priority to projects directly assisting loweincome households to
obtain adequate housing. While we support the expansion, we are
uncertain as to what is meant and the intent of reorientation of
the urban renewal program. If the intent is to return the program
to its earlier days when housing was provided to the mutual
exclusion of new commercial and industrial plants and jobs, then
we would oppose such "reorientation."

As to specific recommendations for local action and public policy,
we refer your attention to a report rendered in October, 1967. This
report was "A Review of Atlanta's Housing Program ~ Its Problems and
Prospects," a joint staff report of the City Planning Department and
the Housing Resources Cormittee. There has been no action taken on
this report and its recommendations. Attached is a copy of that report.

Traffic Engineer

Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.,
Mayor of the City of Atlanta,
Atlanta, Georgia.

Dear Mayor Allen:

In reply to paragragh No. 1 of your instruction sheet entitled "Requested Action
to be Taken by City Departments and Public Agencies" and dated March 19, 1968, we re-
commend the following:

(1) Request the Georgia Power Company to provide immediate cleaning
and re~lamping and repair of all street lights needing such maintenance.

(2) Provide the Assistant Traffic Engineer I (street light engineer)
with a Traffic Engineering Assistant II to assist him by making nighttime
inspections of the streets in the six areas on a regular basis (at least
twice per week) and reporting lamp outages and physical damage to the
Georgia Power Company for immediate repairs. Inspecting these six areas
at night would be almost a full time job but any extra time could be well
utilized by the Street lighting Engineer who has no helper now.

(3) Have the two men now available for the field investigation of
requests and complaints do as they did during the summer of 1967and give all
items from the six areas top priority and handle all other requests for
service as time is available.

(4) Add one Traffic Engineering Assistant II to the staff for train-
ing and assign him full time to the six areas as soon as he is capable of
handling the work, (On. the-job training for this work requires three to
four months of work experience.)

(5) Recheck all six areas to supply any needed "speed control"
Signs to bring the signing up to the standards followed in other areas of
the city. (This will not require many new signs.)

(6) Have both sign and marking crews give top priority to work in
the six areas and handle all other work as rapidly as possible with the
time left available. (Same as 1967.) . :

The steps outlined above are very similar to the steps taken during 1966

de
Page No. 2
Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr., March 26, 1968

and 1967. The area to be covered this summer, (1968), is much larger and the complaints
‘and requests for service will probably be larger. Our service to other areas in the
city suffered noticeably during 1967 as the result of these steps.’ For this reason, we
are recommending additional ; personnal: to properly handle all of the work. We will be
glad to promptly supply any addi tional information that you may desire.

cerely,

Dear Mayor Al len:
~n reply to paragraph #2 of your instruction sheet da ted March 19, 1968, and
entiped 11 Requ es ted Action to b e taken by City Depa rtments and Public Agencies 11 ,
we ~bmit the following report.
We be lieve that the Neighborhood Task Force concept is th e most effective way
now known to "communicate" with the residents of the six areas . Residents of
other
areas usually write lett ers , felephon e , and/or work throu gh civic clubs,
I
PT A groups or similar means of communication. However , we recogni ze the very
grave danger involved in opening this channel of communication without providing
the means of quick response with action that will be reco gniz.ed by ·the individual
citizen as relief. The l a ck of civic clubs and similar organizations makes
"reasoning" with the per son filin g the request or complaint very dif ficu lt, if
not impossibl e .
The r e fore, we see an ur gent nee d for add itiona l personne l a nd op erating
funds to provide (1) th e field investigation service, (2) the additional traff ic
studies needed to determine proper corrective action and (3) the work crews to

Experience during 1966 and 1967 clearly shows that regular night inspections
are necessary to loc a te lamp outages, street light fixtures broken by rocks and/or
rifle shots and report these items to the Georgia Power Company for immediate
repairs. Normal maintenance by the Georgia Power Company calls for cleaning and
re-lamping only every 2 to 3 years. In other sections of th e city, residents
usually notify us of lamps that burn out ahea d of schedul e or of physical damage
that occurs. During 1966 and 1967, we found that (in the six areas) most of
these items went unreported until we made a night inspection.
There is a "backlog" of traffic signal nee ds (city wide) consisting of about
150 locations where signals have been requested and where signals would be helpful
and are warrant e d. Approximately 62 of these locations are in the six areas.
Most of these are the 11Merrill and Oakland" type of situations and there is no
way of acc urately predicting when or if a sudden pressing need will occur. New
Federal Safety St a nda rds will probably require certain additiona l equipment over
and above our pr e sent standards. Accordingly, our estimate of the cost of th ese
install a tions is slightly higher than in the past. Also, if Feder i l Funds are
obtained to he lp purchase signal equipment, a substantial amount of field work
and data ga th e ring will be neces sary to satisfy Fed e r ~ l and State docum entation
requireme nts. Estimated needs to develop this docume ntation are also listed
above.
In closing , we assure you tha t we r e cogniz e the importance and the urg e ncy
of this segment of our s ervice to the city. We believe tha t the"N e ighborhood Ta sk
Force" type of communication should b e op e ne d. We urge th a t_.this improved
communic a tion b e back e d by improving . th e City's ability to r es pond with "des ira ble"
as well as urg e ntly nee ded s e rvices . In our field of endeavor, it is fr e qu e ntly
difficult to de fine ( explain) the diff e r e nce betwee n a "d es irabl e " servic e or
traffic control device and one that is urg e ntly neede d.

Mayor of the City of Atlanta
Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Mayor Allen:

In reply to paragraph #2 of your instruction sheet dated March 19, 1968, and
entitled "Requested Action to be taken by City Departments and Public Agencies",
we submit the following report.

We believe that the Neighborhood Task Force concept is the most effective way
now/known to “communicate” with the residents of the six areas. Residents of
other areas usually write letters, telephone, and/or work through civic clubs,
PTA groups or similar means of communication. However, we recognize the very
grave danger involved in opening this channel of communication without providing
the means of quick response with action that will be recognized by the individual
citizen as relief. The lack of civic clubs and similar organizations makes
"reasoning" with the person filing the request or complaint very difficult, if
not impossible.

Therefore, we see an urgent need for additional personnel and operating
funds to provide (1) the field investigation service, (2) the additional traffic
studies needed to determine proper corrective action and (3) the work crews to
install and maintain the needed signs, markings, signals and street lights.
These needs are listed below. .

This listing shows an estimated grand total of $479,095.00 which includes $77,785.00
for Personnel, $19,310.00 for Equipment and $382,000.00 for Materials.

The needs for sign and marking materials are not great ($10,000) as outlined
above. However, the need for prompt service is urgent. The best our "normal!
service can do is 10 days to 2 weeks after the field investigation is complete
and the work orders are written. "Normal" time for field investigation is also
10 days to 2 weeks. Experience has shown that this is not fast enough for the
needs of the six special areas. Field investigation must be done within 48 hours
and work crews must be in the area within 3 or 4 days of the time that the request
or complaint is filed. This time table requires the additional personnel outlined
above,

as well as urgently needed services. In our field of endeavor, it is frequently
difficult to define (explain) the difference between a "desirable™ service or
traffic control device and one that is urgently needed.

Children's Programs

A workshop in the "art of storytelling" sponsored by the Emory
University Division of librarianship and Atlanta University School
of library Service in cooperation with the Atlanta Public Library,
the DeKalb Library System and the Atlanta Children and Youth Ser-
vices Council is currently in progresse

At the termination of the 8-week course qualified storytellers who,
in return for the free training program will volunteer their time to
tell stories to children on the bookmobiles, at the branch libraries,
in the comnunity school program or EOA Centers. Storytellers will:
be scheduled as needed with particular emphasis on placement in
disadvantaged communities.

The entire program is still dependent on the number of volunteers

who will be available at the conclusion of the course in storytelling.
Approximately 125 people have registered to date in the 13 locations
where the course is presently being conducted.

Adult Programs

A bookmobile program labeled "The Indian Giver*® will be in operation
by this sumer to distribute books on a "readum-'n-swapum' basiSe

The unit will remain in an area from 6:00 peme to 9:00 peme in order
to better serve adult "working people's’ needs. During this period

a film program will be shown in a nearby neighborhood centere EOA
poverty areas already designated for this program are; Mechanics~
ville, Summerhill, Grant Park and Bedford Place. Two full-time

staff members have already been assigned to this program but at least
oO additional hours are needed to effectively expand the program in
additional arease

Future Prograns

 

Funds were made available some time ago for a touring theatre or
cinemamobile to present films and story hours to children in areas

-too far from branches or at branches without suitable facilities.

Manufacturing of this custom-made vehicle has rendered it impossible
to have it in operation before early next yeare

Investigations have revealed that a similar vehicle which could bs
easily adapted for our use is available for purchase at a cost in
excess of our present budget. If a larger grant was avai lable to
make up the difference between funds allocated and those needed the
cinemamobile could be in operation by Juns to serve a large number of
additional communities. Forty (0) additional hours would be needed
to effectively operate for the sunmer.

As an alternative, if an Atlanta Transit Bus and driver were provided
to meet this much needed vehicle problem any number of additional

programs could be conducted.
iV.

De Inner City Public library Service

 

An experiment in using library school students in branch libraries
has resulted in a proposal. for a long-range program to service the
inner city disadvanteged areae Application has been made for fund-
ing threugh Title III, Interlibrary Cooperation of the Library
Services and Construction Acte

The branch libraries in disadvantaged areas will remain essentially
as study centers at the close of the school day for children who
have severe lini.tations in such facilities at homee Library school
students from Atlanta University and Hnory University will make it
possible to provide additional hours open in branch libraries and
study centers in the neighborhoods for this purpose. School libra~
ries in the area willassist perscnnel from public library to inform
students of these centers and provide coordination between school
and public library in prograns and collections.

Ee Deposits ef Books

Investigation is underway as to the feasibility of depositing paper-
back books in Neighborhood Centers, Recreation areas, etce Space
for and circulation of these materials must be planned with the
cooperating agencies.

Functions at Main Library

 

The Main Library will continue to act as an agency through which programs
can be planned. Groups may be brought to the library for "Monday Morning
Movies," group tours, as well as providing the normal services of supplying
films, art prints and reference services to individuals.

Our Children's Department will continue to encovrege children to earn a
certificate for reading 12 books under our Read-All-Year Programe We will
continue also to encourage "Head Start" to bring groups to the Main Library
for picture book hour, storytelling, which is now a very popular service.
In addition the Vagabond Merionettes will be sent to 5 branch libreries in
disadvantaged arease Our traveling storyteller will also continue retation
of storyhours at Decatur Street, Vine City, Georgia Avenue, Hunt Street

and Simpson Streete

In response to your request of March 19, 1968 we wish to supply the

I have carefully read Chapter 10, "The Community Response," contained
in the Report of The National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders
and have compared the cont ents with your recommended 1968 City
Services Program. I believe that the Administrative Organization,
responsibilities, and recommended direct action, carefully reflects
what the City of Atlanta should do in responding to the suggestions
and conclusions on Civil Disorders. I certainly hope that we can obtain
this swnmer City Services Coordinators. Last year I urged they be
reconsidered for 1968 and they served a real purpose by taking a load
off the operating departments in regards to screening certain complaints, some of which were unf0nnded , and passing on with proper
emphasis those compla:i.nts which were fully justified. I am quite
impressed with the staffing suggested for the Neighborhood Task Force.
I am concerned and somewhat in a quandary about recomme ndations for
bhe City-Wide Resources Task Force. On Page 3, Paragraph f., it is
stated that each City d epartment will make themselves available to

A master map has bee n prepared showing all school and park
locations which will be ope rational. The Director of the Atlanta
Youth Council has had emphasized to him the importance of the
City of Atlanta Park/School Program receiving the substantial
amount of any EOA funds this summer. The matter has also been
mentioned briefly to Mayor Allen, as well as to the Members of
the Park Committee, and has been discussed at some length with
the Director of EOAc
A central headquarters will be established at Central Junior High
School adjacent to the City Hall Annex and not too far distant
from City Hall. A director will be hired at the earliest possible
time (immediately if funds are available from the $30,000 HUD
Grant sent to the City for Youth Coordination)
The Director will
assume the technical responsibility of coordinating all recreation
in the Metro area where EOA funds are involved since we understand
. that the Vice President's $30,000 grant to the City was to provide
Metro-wide coordination and was not limited to the confines of our
City limits.

We would like to have available and on the staff no later than
May 1st a director, associate director, accountant, secretary,
telephones, desks, mimeographing machines, etc. in order to

The central office, like our entire program, will remain open at
least six days a week from 9:00 o'clock in the morning until approx imately 10:00 o'clock ~t night. Possibly, the central office will
remain open on Sunday to receive inquiries and give out information
on activities, etc.
The entire summer program will be heavily publicized, using all
news media and, if necessary, paid advertisements in the press.
We are calling upon people in the theater, art world, etc. to
participate and to add to the diversification of the program this
summer.
In summary, we will attempt to have a comprehens ive program going
some twelve hours a day, six days a week that wi ll provide
recreation and cultura l enrichme nt, as we ll as education in every
identi fiab le neighborhood within the hard-core target areas
established by EOA.

JACK C. DELIUS MEMORANDUM

GENERAL MANAGER

 

Ks Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.
Advisory Committee on Civil Disorders

FROM: Jack C. Delius, General Manager of Parks and Recreations A)

In accordance with your instructions of March 29, 1968, entitled
"Requested Action To Be Taken By City Departments And Public
Agencies," I wish to advise you of the following.

e are in continuous meetings with EOA, private agencies in the
field of recreation and social and cultural enrichment, and the
Atlanta School Department, preparing a detailed proposal to be
submitted to Economic Opportunity Atlanta probably by April 4,
1968 and certainly by April 19, 1968, which will in fact comply
with the most recently available guidelines from the Office of
Economic Opportunity in Washington.

Our proposal is to, beginning June 1, 1968 and running through
September 1, 1968 to operate approximately 134 centers, schools,
playgrounds and parks. Heavy emphasis will be placed on teenage
activities, such as social dances, civic councils, field trips

to our Lake Altoona property, and work experiences. Every neighbor-
hood has been carefully inventoried from the viewpoint of the
availability of either a school or a park and recreation facility.
It is anticipated that not all of the currently existing forty

odd playlots will be staffed; however, those not staffed will be
adjacent to operational schools.

Heavy emphasis will be placed on employment using in-school and
out-of-school neighborhood Youth Corps enrollees, as well as
additional young people who come from disadvantaged areas.

Tentative plans were developed as to what we would do in terms

of programs in disadvantaged areas if we received no federal funds.
The staff had estimated that upwards of forty-four permanent
employees could be diverted from daffluent areas of our community
to the less fortunate areas. The plan was voted down by the
Aldermanic Parks Committee on March 12, 1968. However, the
Committe planned to contact the Mayor and arrange a meeting to

discuss in depth what additional City funds might be available
in the event the City did not receive OEO financing.

A master map has been prepared showing all school and park
locations which will be operational. The Director of the Atlanta
Youth Council has had emphasized to him the importance of the
City of Atlanta Park/School Program receiving the substantial
amount of any EOA funds this summer. The matter has also been
mentioned briefly to Mayor Allen, as well as to the Members of
the Park Committee, and has been discussed at some length with
the Director of EOA,

A central headquarters will be established at Central Junior High
School adjacent to the City Hall Annex and not too far distant
from City Hall. A director will be hired at the earliest possible
time (immediately if funds are available from the $30,000 HUD
Grant sent to the City for Youth Coordination). The Director will
assume the technical responsibility of coordinating all recreation
in the Metro area where EOA funds are involved since we understand
that the Vice President's $30,000 grant to the City was to provide
Metro-—wide coordination and was not limited to the confines of our
City limits.

We would like to have available and on the staff no later than

May lst a director, associate director, accountant, secretary,
telephones, desks, mimeographing machines, etc. in order to

establish our base of operations and to begin in-service training.
The central office, like our entire program, will remain open at
least six days a week from 9:00 o'clock in the morning until approxi-
mately 10:00 o'clock at night. Possibly, the central office will
remain open on Sunday to receive inquiries and give out information
on activities, etc.

The entire summer program will be heavily publicized, using all
news media and, if necessary, paid advertisements in the press.
We are calling upon people in the theater, art world, etc. to
participate and to add to the diversification of the program this
summer.

In summary, we will attempt to have a comprehensive program going
some twelve hours a day, six days a week that will provide
recreation and cultural enrichment, as well as education in every
identifiable neighborhood within the hard-core target areas
established by EOA,

10, REPORT OF NATIONAL ALVISORY COMMITTEE ON
he CIVIL CLISORDERS.

lL. Neighborhood Task Force
tne establishnient or such an organization would be of great edvantage
to those people living in low income areas who feel left out of the
system. It would give them the opportunity to talk directly with the
verious aepartment heads in solving their problems. Through this type
of moeting we could explain ovr operation and receive valuable sugges=
tions that would help us in providing sanitary services to all citizens
on an equal basis, Certainly this force wovld be a guide to us in

determining if we are providins the necessary service.

ee Grievance response mechanisms.
In my opinion this comnittes should be composed of interested citizens
from the various communities who would air grievances and pass them on
to the various cepartments for action.

5. Legal service to the poor,
RORA are the people wno need this service the most. Many of them do not
understand the due process of law and the many complex routines demanded
by /this process. It might be well to provide a public defender for those
unable to afford legal representatioh,.

4. Assistance for Mayors and City Councils.
This suggestion needs to be persued strongly, urging the State &amp; Federal
governments to provide funds for sucn assistance, . :

5S. Hearing on Ghetto problems and enactment of appropriate local lerislation.
These types ol nearings wouid ve very helpful in Tinding the real source
of their complaints and give us the opportunity to revamp or include some
additional services in these areas.

6. Establisment of neighborhood city halls.
To me this is an excellent idea, of course the person in the neighborhcod
city halls should be someone the community has respect for and feel that
he is interested in improving conditions in their community.

7. Dévelopuent of milti-service centers.
By cstublishing these centers in the ghetto areas it brings the various
services to the community, it provides a place where the resident of such
a community can take his problems and discuss them and perhaps arrive at

a solution to then,

&amp;. Improved pblitical revresentcation.
Perhaps more representstion on tne Besrd of Aldermen, appointment of
these people to various civic projects, boards, etc, would give them a
sconsoe of belonging. I think that Atlanta has made great strides in this
area,

9. More effective community varticipation,.
This type of program with tho nelp or the multi-service centers could help
thesa citizens to develop pride in their communities, They should be
ineluded in plans that effect their community, even though these people
live in such areas there are a good many helpful suggestions or reconn~
endations they can supply.

Thess recommendations certainly would help us in providing the necessary
sanitary services to these areas, They would provide these citizens an

avenue -to voice their complaints and suggestions.

1. The neighborhood task force could be of great assistance to us in
organizing clean up programs, providing the necessary garbage collection,
the collection of rubbish, removal of abandoned cars on private property,
cleaning of streets, etc.

7. The multi-scrvice center could be very helpful in securing labor to
fill vacant positions in the Sanitary Division through their employment
division

Dy f : : .

It might be adviseable to sot up a special crew at each sub station who
would devote 100% of their time to these aroas. My idea of such crews
would bo as follows.

1 Inspector to oversee the entire Drop Ree, cost $7,046.00
4 Truck drivers, $5,265,007, ie¢1,060 80

85 Waste collectors, $342,112.00.

4 Equipment operators, 523,868.00

4 Front end loaders, $1§,809&lt;00

4 Open body trucks, $7,900.0Qd0

$
Total estimated cost. $109,886.00

Note; Of course if we can reduce absenteeism it might be possible to Suppey
some of the man power from existing Trorces, Kiso othsr mechanization
prograns might release the drivers «fid waste collectors.
