In order to assist these property owners, a special program of loans and grants was -authorized as a result of the housing and Urban Redevelopment Act of 1965. REHABILITATION GRANTS are direct grants to qualified. low.,.income owneroccupants located in an urban redevelopment aEea. These grants are for the cost to repair and improve the property so that it conforms to property standards in a Neighborhood Development Program. The maximum amount of the grant is $3000. These are outsight grants, and do not need to be repaid. No lien is placed on the property. Eligibility for these grants require that the family income in most cases must be under $3000. Any applicant whose income exceeds $3000 may be eligible for a partial grant if the total housing expense is over 25% of the applicant's monthly income. REHABILITATION LOANS are direct loans at 3% interest, whfuch can extend over a 20-year period made to qualified owners of property in a Neighborhood Development Program Area. The property owner is eligible if he is an acceptable risk, but unable to secure necessary funds from other sources upon companable terms and conditions. In the case of homeowners, it is possible to refinance loans presently on the property in addition using the loan to pay for the rehabilitation costs. The loan may not exceed the estimated cost of necessary repairs and improvements to bring the property up to the project standards. In the case of investor-owned property, no funds are available to pay off any present indebtedness on the property; the loan is limited to the actual cost of the repairs and improvements. THE PROCEDURE FOR SECURING A GRANT OR LOAN WOULD INCLUDE: (1) A survey of the property by the Rehabilitation Advisor who will prepare a written report on the work that needs to be accomplished. He will also develop a cost estimate. (2) Discussion of methods of financing improvements with the property owner and assist in making an application for a loan or a grant. (3) Assist property owners in obtaining bids from contractors to assure that work will be done at the lowest price . (4) Inspect the work as it is being accomplished. (5) Make certain that the contractor is paid only after all work has been completed to the satisfaction of the owner and the project's rehabilitation staff . Rehabilitation staff members will be available at all times to assist and counsel the property owner-- from the time of application through the closing out of the grant or loan . �TO THE HOMEOWNERS IN THE MODEL CITIES AREA: In order to determine your eligability for a Grant of money to be used to repair cll1d improve your home in an amount not exceeding $3000..00 or a Loan at a low interest rate of 3% it is necessary for our finance department to have the fol.lowing information: 1. Proof of ownership of the property which is usually a copy of the warranty deed. 2. Verification of income to determine your maximum eligability for a Grant of Loan or a combination of both. This is usually in the form of: a. b. c. letter from employer written form indicating the amount of any income derived from social security, welfare, disability, pensions, verification of any rent .received and any other income received from any other source. The amount of any existing mortgage and the monthly payment on same and the name of the mortgage holder. 1\ A Your cooperation in providing this information as soon as possible will enable us to detemi ne what help we can render to you, add proceed to get work started on your home as soon as pos s ible.

In order to assist these property owners, a special program of loans and grants was authorized as a result of the hous- ing and Urban Redevelopment Act of 1965. EEHABILITATION GRANTS are direct grants to qualified low-income owner- occupants located in an urban redevelopment agea. These grants are for the cost to repair and improve the property so that it conforms to property standards in a Neighborhood Development Program. The maximum amount of the grant is $3000. These are outsight grants, and do not need to be repaid. No lien is placed on the property. Eligibility for these grants require that the family income in most cases must be under $3000. Any applicant whose income exceeds $3000 may be eligible for a partial grant if the total housing expense is over 25% of the applicant's monthly income. REHABILITATION LOANS are direct loans at 3% interest, whitch can extend over a 20-year period made to qualified owners of property in a Neighborhood Development Program Area. The property owner is eligible if he is an acceptable risk, but unable to secure necessary funds from other sources upon compatable terms and conditions. In the case of homeowners, it is possible to refinance loans presently on the property in addition using the loan to pay for the rehabilitation costs. The loan may not exceed the estimated cost of necessary repairs and improvements to bring the property up to the project standards. In the case of investor-owned property, no funds are available to pay off any present indebtedness on the property; the loan is limited to the actual cost of the repairs and improvements. THE PROCEDURE FOR SECURING A GRANT OR LOAN WOULD INCLUDE: (1) A survey of the property by the Rehabilitation Advisor who will prepare a written report on the work that needs to be accomplished. He will also develop a cost estimate. (2) Discussion of methods of financing improvements with the property owner and assist in making an application for a loan or a grant. (3) Assist property owners in obtaining bids from contractors to assure that work will be done at the lowest price. (4) Inspect the work as it is being accomplished. (5) Make certain that the contractor is paid only after all work has been completed to the satisfaction of the owner and the project's rehabilitation staff. Rehabilitation staff members will be available at all times to assist and counsel the property owner-- from the time of application through the closing out of the grant or loan. TO THE HOMEOWNERS IN THE MODEL CITIES AREA: In order to determine your eligability for a Grant of money to be used to repair and improve your home in an amount not exceeding $300Q00 or a Loan at a low interest rate of 3% it is necessary for our finance department to have the following information: 1. Proof of ownership of the property which is usually a copy of the warranty deed. 2. Verification of income to determine your maximum eligability for a Grant of Loan or a combination of both. This is usually in the form of: a. i letter from employer b. A written form indicating the amount of any income derived from social security, welfare, disability, pensions, verification of any rent received and any other income received from any other source. ec. The amount of any existing mortgage and the monthly payment on same and the name of the mortgage holder. Your cooperation in providing this information as soon as possible will enable us to determine what help we can render to you, add proceed to get work started on your home as soon as possible. Yours very truly, es Dickens, Jr. Financial Advisor Model Cities Neighborhood Development Program CDjr/dem 4.

The application signed by Mrs. Laird for a loan of $3100_,. 6,.bove the $3000 grant was at the rate of 3% - not 8 1/2%. Mrs. Laird's statement that only one contractor came to her house is probably true. Her statement is probably true she was told by the Housing Authority that three bids were received and this particular contractor offered the lowest bid. This will more or less being borne out from statements made by Littlefield. The followin g is procedure used by Model Cities' staff on the rehabilitation of a property : 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

A copy of this document is attached and marked II l 11. Property owners are asked to sign numerous papers a copy of which is apparently not offered to them. Most of negotiations are of an oral nature. Attached are forms marked 2, 3, 4, and 5 which, if were given to the property owners, would fully inform them as to the nature of the grants, etc. The following should not be publicizied because if generally known would work against the Model Cities Program. A property owner cannot be required, according to Littlefield to accept grants or loans nor to rehabilitate their property to Model Cities standards. If they did not conform to the standards they could only be required to have their property conform to the minimum City Housing Code requirements. In the case of Mrs. Laird, according to one of the supervisors in the Housing Code Division, her property could be brought into compliance for an estimated expenditure of $1200.

MOSES, Executive Secretary DAN E. SWEAT, JR., Director of Governmental Liaison MEMORANDUM Dan Sweat DATE: October 13, 1969 Clarence Greene Model Cities, J, D. Newberry and Mrs. Annie B. Laird As instructed we met with J. D. Newberry concerning repairs to the residence of Mrs. Laird at 662 Mayland Avenue, S. W. Subsequently we met with Littlefield and Lynch from the Model Cities office, Lynch the inspector on this case. Allegations made by Newberry and Mrs. Laird in some instances were correct and some incorrect. The application signed by Mrs. Laird for a loan of $3100, Above the $3000 grant was at the rate of 3% - not 8 1/2%. Mrs. Laird's statement that only one contractor came to her house is probably true. Her state- ment is probably true she was told by the Housing Authority that three bids were received and this particular contractor offered the lowest bid. This will more or less being borne out from statements made by Littlefield. The following is procedure used by Model Cities' staff on the rehabilitation of a property: Contact property owner Inspection - discussion with owner Property owner invited to office for financial discussion Application for grant and/or loan made Contractor bids accepted and presented to owner Contract let- repairs under supervision of the rehabilitation staff. Oo RW NS Under #5, Littlefield stated he could on his own initiative place a property for repair bids or he could assign one contractor only to a particular property. We do not understand his power here however, this is what he states. Dan Sweat aia October 13, 1969 From what we can ascertain the only form which is given a property owner is a list of repairs necessary. A copy of this document is attached and marked '1'', Property owners are asked to sign numerous papers a copy of which is apparently not offered to them. Most of negotiations are of an oral nature. Attached are forms marked 2, 3, 4, and 5 which, if were given to the property owners, would fully inform them as to the nature of the grants, etc. The following should not be publicizied because if generally known would work against the Model Cities Program.

In the case of Mrs. Laird, according to one of the supervisors in the Housing Code Division, her property could be brought into compliance for an estimated expenditure of $1200. It can readily be seen she would be in a far better financial situation, even considering the higher interest rate she might pay for a FHA home improvement loan, than she would be under a 3% 20 year $3100 loan, CLG:bt  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

In early November, 1968, Model Cities' staff contacted the Youth Council and requested that the Council submit proposals for special programs to be undertaken in the Model Cities area.

Sweat, Jr. Chief Administrator Officer City of Atlanta City Hall Atlanta, Georgia 30303 Dear Dan: Thank you for the material which reported on the Conference to Develop an Integrated Approach to the Prevention and Control of Juvenile Delinquency. I find the material rather interesting since it relates to a matter about which I have been concerned for some time, not only in the field of juvenile delinquency, but also in practically every urban problem that exists. The concern relates, of course, to the fact that there is in practically every field a complete lack of coordination of efforts by agencies concerned with mutual problems. As you know, there is afoot an effort to develop a coordinated program in the Model Cities area which would bring together representatives of the police, courts, probation, school and concerned private social service agencies. I find that the proposed Model Cities' effort is not dissimliar from the effort described in the attached report relating to the Joint Youth Develop Committee - Law Enforcement Correction Program of Chicago and in the recommenda- tions set forth in Volume I of the attached report. Mr. Dan E. Sweat, Jr. October 31, 1969 Page 2 I am sure you will receive, if you have not already, an invitation to attend a Model Cities meeting at the Central Presbyterian Church on November 10 to discuss this coordinated effort.

Whelden Research Assistant for William B, Henry, Director Regional Planning Commission 415 The Arcade Cleveland, Ohio 4414 Dear Miss Whelden: Your October 9, 1969 letter to Dan Sweat has been referred to me by Johnny Johnson, Director of the Atlanta Model Cities Program, and I am herein replying for them. The Atlanta Model Cities Program Began in November 1967. However, most of the subsequent period was spent in planning with residents as to what the community should have. We did not conduct a great many surveys for two basic reasons: 1. Lack of time before HUD required us to submit our plan. 2. Insufficient funds prior to this time. However, we now have both of those situations rectified. For instance, we have signed a contract with Georgia State University in Atlanta to conduct much of our research program. Its effort will include an intensive and comprehensive attitudi- nal survey. I don't believe at the present time that the University has developed ite attitudinal survey in final form. However, I suggest you contact the following office: Dr. Frank Steggert, Director of Urban Observatory; Hartford Building; Bdgewood Avenue, Atlanta,Georgia (Attention: Miss Jananne  Page 2 Olsen). I am certain Dr. Steggert or Miss Olsen will be happy to cooperate. Another piece of research to which I would refer you would be an intensive and comprehensive survey compiled by our regional office of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Bureau studied the Model Cities area and the remainder of what is the Atlanta CEP area (Concentrated Employment Program). I have requested Charles Bullard, Assistance Regional Director, to mail you under a separate Gover the questionaires his interviewers used. Finally, there was a study (which included some 200 interviewees) on the. attitudes of the residents concerning the system of criminal justice. This was done by William Mathias, who is now asso- ciated with the Urban Life Center; Georgia State University; Atlanta, Georgia. I would hope this information and the four pages I am sending with this mailing would be helpful to you. If we can be of further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us again.

Technically, the Model Cities Program is a part of the Mayor's Office. Its budget, for example, is under the administration of the Mayor, although Mayor Allen has delegated the responsibility for approving the disbursement of project funds to the Model Cities Director. This organizational structure was established in accordance with the Model Cities Act that required the program to be a "Mayor's Program". The same act, however, required broad citizen participation in the program. In attempting to reconcile this requirement with Atlanta's committee system, it was decided that the Executive Board of the program would be chaired by the Mayor and would have on it two Aldermen in addition to citizens and other officials. It was further decided that all resolutions and official actions required fortthe program would come from the Executive Board to the appropriate Aldermanic Committee but, because the Mayor and two members of the Aldermanic Board were on the Executive Board, the other Aldermen would not have to be overly concerned with the details of the program and could act on the recommen- dations of the Executive Board with confidence, This situation has created some problems in determining the Mayor's exactrrole in the administration of the program. Notwithstanding the federal government's position that the program is the responsibility of the Mayor, our Board of Aldermen must, of course, give its sanction to the day to day activities under our system. Further, the citizen a a ee i Memorandum Page Two December 17, 1969 participation requirement must be met.

PosJtion Paper• bity Of Atlatlla Acquisition of Land by Southern Railway in the Modei Cities Area of Atlanta I. Introduction A. Purpose This statement reflects the concerns of the following operating agencies with reg&rd to expansion plans of Southern Railway: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Model Cities Program Atlanta Parks Department Atlanta Planning Department Atlanta Housing Authority Atlanta Public Works Department It is limited to these major areas: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. II. Land Use and Housing Transportation Relocation of Families Pittman Park Acquisition Inconsistency with Major Planning Efforts Conclusions Areas of Concern A. Land Use & Housing 1. Result. Industrial land use will increase through the enlarged yard facilities while residenti al and park acreage will decline. 2. Effect. Under present plans the resulting increase in heavy industrial activity threatens the stability of the remaining residential neighborhood. Residential property values will decline since living close to a railro ad stor age ~ . �-2yard is ~ndesirabte. With9ut proper pianning there will be an increase in the structural deterioration oi homes adjadent to the yard. B. Transportation 1. Result. Railroad activity will increase above existing levels and the proposed yard limits will dead end various local streets. 2. Effect . (a) Dead-End Streets The expansion, as proposed, will cut-off seven streets in the Pittsburgh Neighborhood . These streets and the number of structures which will be located on the resulting dead-end streets are ~ 1) Windsor Street 0 structures 2 ) Garibaldi Street - 12 structures 3) Gardner Street 1 structure 4) Ira Street 4 structures 5) Rockwell Str eet 0 structures 6) Smith Str eet 16 str uctur es 7) Ber ckele S treet 6 st r uctures - - - 39 str uctur es On these same seven streets , a s pres ently e xisting , there are 1 1 s tructure s o n the dead-end p o rtion s o f t h e streets . I t will have to b e determined if a ny o f the propose d dead-end s t reet s are of sufficient length t o necessitate a turn around. If one is needed 0 then additional properties may have to b e acquired to provide the turn around. The expansion of Southern Railway 0 as proposed 0 includes portions of several streets. To �-3implement this plan, it will be necessary for the City to abandon parts of these streets. A public hearing will have to be held to determine if these streets should be abandoned. (b) McDanield Street Crossing The principal connector between the Pittsburgh and Mechanicsville Neighborhoods is McDaniel Street . This street presently crosses the Southern Railway tracks at-grade. When trains are coming to or leaving the storage yards , McDaniel Street is often blocked for relatively long periods of time . To eliminate these long delays, a proposal has been made to construct an underpass under McDaniel Street. Total cost of this project as estimated by Public Works Department is $1 , 050,000o This does not include ri ght-of-way damage or relocating water lines . To accomplish this project , three or four tracks will have to be killed during construction. This will be difficult since increased train traffic past McDaniel Street will occur if the existing storage yard is expanded . No date for constr uc tion of this underpas s has been set . I f this p r oject is not i mplemented , the incr eased t r ain t r affic f r om the p r oposed storage yar d will fu r ther i n c r ease the lon g delays at t he at - g r a d e c r ossing. ( c ) Fortress Avenue Cr oss i n g Fortress Avenue also conne c ts the P ittsburgh and Mechanic s vill e Nei ghborhoodso Since this s tre e t do e s not l e ad to any major streets and since it crosses the Southern Railway tracks at-grade, Fortress Avenue is not heavily used. Also, trains are parked at times across Fortress Avenue discouraging use of the str eet . �-4- The increased train traffic resulting from expanded yard facilities will all but eliminate the use of Fortress Avenue. There are no plans at this time to improve Fortress Avenue. c. D. Relocation 1. Result. The proposed land acquisition will affect about 100 families. 2. Effect. These people must move without being paid the allowances received by urban renewal displacees: moving expenses and differential paymentso They will not be eligible for temporary housing presently being provided by the Atlanta Hqusing Authority. And their exodus will further contribute to the city's current deficiency in standard housing units for people of such low income. Consequently, the forced movement of such a large number of people by an agency with public responsibility does not reflect recent trends to finance and provide direct housing assistance to such groups , nor does it reflect t h e present trend of business to become involved in the human problems it creates. P ittman Park Acqui s ition 1. Re sult. A portion of Pittman Par k mus t be a c qui r ed f o r r a i l r oad use while adjacent r esident i al and indus t r ial p r oper ty wi ll be acquir ed and add ed t o t h e r emaining par k site . The gymn asium , swimming po ol , and tenn is court s wil l have t o b e d emolished a nd recon s truc t e d: f i nancing is b e ing provi d e d by Southern Railway . 2. Effe ct. Pittman P ark comes close st t o b e ing the most ideal recre ation and p a rk facility in the entire Atlc.nta system.

Purpose This statement reflects the concerns of the follow- ing operating agencies with regard to expansion plans of Southern Railway: Model Cities Program Atlanta Parks Department Atlanta Planning Department Atlanta Housing Authority Atlanta Public Works Department MB Wh eH ° B. scope It is limited to these major areas: Land Use and Housing Transportation Relocation of Families Pittman Park Acquisition Inconsistency with Major Planning Efforts - Conclusions Aub WN eH II. Areas of Concern A. Land Use & Housing 1. Result. Industrial land use will increase through the enlarged yard facilities while residential and park acreage will decline. 2. Effect. Under present plans the resulting increase in heavy industrial activity threatens the stability of the remaining residential neighborhood. Residential property values will decline since living close to a railroad storage " mite yard is undesirable. Without proper planning there will be an increase in the structural deterioration of homes adjacent to the yard. B. Transportation 1. Result. Railroad activity will increase above existing levels and the proposed yard limits will dead end various local streets. Effect. (a) Dead-End Streets The expansion, as proposed, will cut-off seven streets in the Pittsburgh Neighborhood. These streets and the number of structures which will be located on the resulting dead-end streets are: 1) Windsor Street - O structures 2) Garibaldi Street - 12 structures 3) Gardner Street - 1 structure 4) Ira Street - 4 structures 5) Rockwell Street - O structures 6) Smith Street - 16 structures 7) Berckele Street - 6 structures 39 structures On these same seven streets, as presently exist- ing, there are 11 structures on the dead-end portions of the streets. It will have to be determined if any of the proposed dead-end streets are of sufficient length to necessitate a turn around. If one is needed, then additional properties may have to be acquired to provide the turn around. The expansion of Southern Railway, as proposed, includes portions of several streets. To (b) (e) -3— implement this plan, it will be necessary for the City to abandon parts of these streets. A public hearing will have to be held to determine if these streets should be abandoned. McDanield Street Crossing The principal connector between the Pittsburgh and Mechanicsville Neighborhoods is McDaniel Street. This street presently crosses the Southern Railway tracks at-grade. When trains are coming to or leaving the storage yards, McDaniel Street is often blocked for relatively long periods of time. To eliminate these long delays, a proposal has been made to construct an underpass under McDaniel Street. Total cost of this project as estimated by Public Works Department is $1,050,000. This does not include right-of-way damage or relocating water lines. To accomplish this project, three or four tracks will have to be killed during construction. This will be difficult since increased train traffic past McDaniel Street will occur if the existing storage yard is expanded. No date for construc- tion of this underpass has been set. If this project is not implemented, the increased train traffic from the proposed storage yard will further increase the long delays at the at-grade crossing. Fortress Avenue Crossing Fortress Avenue also connects the Pittsburgh and Mechanicsville Neighborhoods. Since this street does not lead to any major streets and since it crosses the Southern Railway tracks at-grade, Fortress Avenue is not heavily used. Also, trains are parked at times across Fortress Avenue discouraging use of the street. The increased train traffic resulting from expanded yard facilities will all but eliminate the use of Fortress Avenue. There are no plans at this time to improve Fortress Avenue. Cc. Relocation Des Result. The proposed land acquisition will affect about 100 families. Effect. These people must move without being paid the allowances received by urban renewal displacees: moving expenses and differential payments. They will not be eligible for temporary housing present- ly being provided by the Atlanta Housing Authority. And their exodus will further contribute to the city's current deficiency in standard housing units for people of such low income. Consequently, the forced movement of such a large number of people by an agency with public responsibility does not re- flect recent trends to finance and provide direct housing assistance to such groups, nor does it reflect the present trend of business to become involved in the human problems it creates. D. Pittman Park Acquisition Ls Result. A portion of Pittman Park must be acquired for railroad use while adjacent residential and industrial property will be acquired and added to the remaining park site. The gymnasium, swimming pool, and tennis courts will have to be demolished and reconstructed; financing is being provided by Southern Railway. Effect. Pittman Park comes closest to being the most ideal recreation and park facility in the entire Atlanta system. It has been blessed with a fairly complete list of physical facilities, as well as a real outstanding staff. Pittman Park lies within what is referred to as a Neighborhood Service Area Number 20, as defined by the Atlanta = Parks and Recreation 1983 Plan. Due to the fact that the Parks Department does not wish to relocate large numbers of people adjacent to the park, they have abandoned any thought of having a full-fledged community park in this neighborhood. A community park consists of not less than twenty-five acres and obviously many, many people would be dislocated. Thus, they have proposed to convert Pittman into an “expanded neighborhood park" by adding about three acres. The Planning Department has recommended that they acquire the brickyard to bring up the acreage total but their own design staff opposes this particular direction of expansion. The Park's position, specifically, with Southern Railway System is that, if the park must be bothered, there must be full and rapid replacement of all facilities inter- fered with and these facilities must be bigger and better and more modern than the existing facilities. Equelly important, the project must not violate the supe;ior philosophy of Model Cities. E. Inconsistency with Major Planning Efforts 1. Result. The expansion of industrial uses in this area is not consistent with existing city plans for the area including the following: a. 1983 Parks and Recreation Plan b. NDP Plan for Model Cities ¢c, 1983 Land Use Plan for Atlanta ad. Model Cities Land Use Plan and Five Year Comprehensive Plan. 2. Effect. All city plans are interrelated, some more so than others. The Pittman Park service area and plans for recreation program expansion is contin- gent upon the preservation of Pittsburgh as a resilential community. Business areas, schools, park: and rehabilitation areas are proposed because of the relationship of these land uses to surround- ing uses. The inclusion of an industrial use in this erea - without proper consideration and control - will nullify the past years of work that the city Tit. aG= has committed to this neighborhood - not to mention the cost of this work and the involvement of residents working to better their own environment. For example, the Housing Authority's concern is to determine whether or not the Southern Railway expansion plans are consistent with the Neighborhood Development Program plans prepared by each of the six Model Cities neighborhood resident committees and their planning consultants in conjunction with the staff of the City Planning Department, the Model Cities staff and the Atlanta Housing Authority. Federal and local funds are being provided to carry out these plans which are approved by the Mayor and Board of Aldermen of the City of Atlanta and the Federal Government. Contractural agreements preclude the City from taking any actions such as rezoning : or closing of streets which are contrary to the plans approved by the City, the Federal Government and the Housing Authority. Alternative Considerations On the basis of an analysis of proposed plans, two major conclusions have been formulated. A. Selection of Another Site. The foregoing concerns can be minimized if the railroad expanded north and east - into the existing industrial area of Mechanicsville - instead of south and west into a park and established residential neighborhood. This direction will eliminate a large, unsightly and rat infested junkyard and also relocate only a handful of families as Qpposed to the 100 presently affected. Involvement of Railroad with Agencies Responsible for Planning. The utilizing of any site for Railroad expansion can be found only if the railroad and city agencies develop a closer working relationship than has existed to this point.  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
