NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS CONFERE N CE OCTOBER 22 TO NOVEMBER 3, 1967 J. M. FLANIGEN CON FERE N CE P AR TICIPANT Sm1d ay , Octob e r 22: The confe rence sta rt e d w ith din ner a t the She raton C a rlton follo we d by an addr e ss by Dr. G a rr e tt H a rdin, Pr ofe s sor of Biology at th e Uni ve rsity of Californi a . It is difficult to r e concil e biol ogy w ith urban anairs, but h e d i d it by tracin g e thnic prin cipl e s and the fact tha t a n y rac e , w hit e , r e d, yellow , or black has a b as ic lo ve and loyalty to its o w n a n ce s try. The talk w as provoc ati ve a n d br o u ght out good discus sion, e s p e cially in vie w of t he fact th a t non e i n th e group h a d s ee n e ach oth e r b e for e dinne r. Monday, Octob e r 23: The morn i ng s e ssion w as one of ori e nt a tion . W e we r e divid e d i n to thr ee groups : pl anni ng, politic s a n d pri vat e s e ctor. Eac h gr oup di s c usse d th e s ubj e ct s th e y th o u g ht w ould b e of i n t e r es t a nd from thi s the pr og r a m w as finali ze d a n d a s si gn me nt s m a d e for our d ay i n t he f ie ld. In t he aft e r noon t he g r oup s we r e br o u g ht to ge t h e r for con solid a tion of id eas . The e v ening wa s fr ee for dinne r a nd what eve r we want e d to d o . Tues day, Octo b e r 24 : The m o r n ing s ess i on was l e d b y Pr ofesso r Jul es Chame t sky , A ss oci ate Profe sso r o f E ngli s h at the U n i ve r s ity of M a ss a chus e tts. I s ee m e d to b e the on ly one i n the group who t ho u ght we ll of his di s c uss i on. It s urprised me t hat a man i n a r e l a ti ve l y s mall coll e g e w o uld have such a k no w l edg e and g rasp of t h e situa ti on i n cities. To me, h e put his finger on th e situ a ti on , a nd by a s e ri es of metaphors a nd e x ampl e s brought the search for p o w er by d i ffe rent groups (air pow er, �,1 Page T w o police powe r, black power, and student power) and the r e sultant frustration leading to th e use of drugs to give an illusion of power. This, to me, e x pressed the keynote of the entire confer en c e : frustration. The afte r no on session was to b e led by Congr essman Curtis of Missouri, but h e was called back to The Capitol b e for e h e could get starte d. But what h e did say confirmed the evi dence of frustration: more strike s, higher interest rates, higher wages, and inflation. The minimum wage w ill i n crease une mployment. A gain, the evening was fr ee for our own desires . Wednesday, Octobe r 25: The morning session was l ed by H e rb e rt Strine r of th e Upjohn Institute for Employment R esearch. This was one of the b e st talks we had, and h e started out by saying that eve rybody was an Economist, and there were two kinds: {l) The simpl e . one to whom all things ar e s i mpl e to th e simple, and (2) nothing is sim pl e a nd economic s makes simple things diffi c ult. H e menti oned the nat ional d ebt, an d sai d that as l ong as the g r oss national product e x c ee ded the debt th e re was nothing to w orry about. A th eo ry I cannot go along with complete ly. I n hi s discussion of j ob opportunities h e made a good poin t i n tha t employe r s ar e di scour aging workers by i nsis ting on compl e t e i nves ti gation b efore employment. If men in nee d of a j ob r epo rt and find that they cannot be put to w ork until th e y and their r e cords have b een examined, th ey will give up and stay on r e lief. The afte rnoon sess i on was on the politi cal situation and the possibilities of the 1968 ele ctions. The evening session was a briefing on our day in the fi e l d the n ext day. I dr ew t he t rip to Mont gome ry County, Maryl and , where they h ave just passe d an ope n housing ordinan ce and have q ualifie d for u rban renewal. This trip was most inte r es tin g b e caus e of our inte r es t in zoning and housin g. Appar ently the people did not worry a bout the ope n housin g b ecause of the high prices of homes ( $30 - $40, 000). �Page Three Dinner was at the Anthony House, with debri e fing s e ssion later. Friday, Octob e r 27: This session was given over to reports and discussion of what we had seen and learned on the fi e ld trips. The problems in Washington are not different from Atlanta, but I b e lieve we are handling them better. A school problem, involving a new supe rintendent brought forth a meeting similar to the one in Atlanta the we e k b e fore. Howev e r, this one was carried to the courts. The aft e rnoon was free time so I went to see and talk w ith the H ealth D e partment . about how th e y were handling the Alcoholics. I was very much dis appointed in the little time given me, but did find out that they have set up d etoxification centers in all precinct police stations, with nurses in attendance. Thi s is followed up with examinations and com1nitt1nl:!nt to a hospital if nec essary . Dinner was at the Carlton, followed by a discussion on crime and the courts by Mr. Samue l Dash from the Georgetown University Law Center. Saturd ay , October 28: Thi s was a summary of what we had gone ov e r during the week; first a general summary by th e staff and the n a discussion l ed by a couple of teams picket from the group. I think a great deal of th e week 's discussion was fla v or e d and influen ced by the march on The Pentagon, w hich occurred th e day before we got th e re. The evening s e ssion was at the Washington Gallery of Mod e rn Arts. This was the only session I could not tak e and left aft e r about an hour. Howeve r, they did show some movies of the march on The P entagon. If it w as to show prowess , it wa s a flop. I was certainly proud of th e Ar rny in the way they h an dl e d th e situation - just plain,firm discipline. Sunday, Octob e r 29: The morning was fr ee and several of us went to church, oth e rs found other attractions . The afternoon was a trip to Columbia, th e new city b e t ween Washington and Baltimore. This was most inte r es ting t o see a city planned for 100 , 000 from �Page Four the ground up. A central core of business surrounde d by 6 or 8 11 villages of homes with shopping and recreation for each. A pavillion type theatre has been provided and contracts signed for top grade performances. The streets and walkways are so arranged that childr en can go to and fro1n school without crossi:p.g a street. Mini-bus es handle traffic to and from the main shopping area. Several indus tries hav e located in the city. Monday, Octob er 30: The morning session was on government and covered everything from municipal to the Federal Government. It was brought out that the re was a gap between the cities and the Federal Gov e rnment that must be filled. The state must do its share. Metro government has been rejected by the people in practically all cases . Combine d city and county has worked in a few cases. One in particular is Nashville , which was repr esented at the meeting . Maryland h as practically all county government. The Council of Governments {COG) in Washington seems to be an answer, t emporary or interim, at l east, but a stepping stone. The discussion was continued in the afternoon with John Gunther, Executive Dir ector of the Confer ence of Mayors, and Walter Scheiber, E xe cutive Dir e ctor of the Washington Council of Gov ernments . ! was pl eased tha t Mr. Glmthe r spoke very highly of Atlanta i n his r emarks . There i s no r eason why our Council of Governments will not work. The evening was free. Tues d ay, Octob er 31: The day's session on urban t echnolo gy and systematic management was a g eneral discuss i on on how t echnology can b e fitt ed into politics and vice v ersa . A very interesting discussion on the age old proble m of tryin g to bring these two sides to gethe r. The evening m ee ting was supposed to b e at the Potter's House on churches and cities, but because of a mix up on bus sche dul es we could not get in to the place . C ongresswoman Edith Gre e n of Oregon was the l eader. I was anxious to h ear thi s because I think there is a place for the church in the inner city and h ave b een inte r este d in our o wn e ffort s w ith St. Jude 's House, Emmaus House and the Kirkwood Center. �Page Five Wendesda y, Noven1b e r 1: Befor e the morning s es sion started a m an fro1n the Acact'!my of Scien ce came in and posed a que sti on : "If you h ad seve r al million dollars to spend in yotu city, what would you do with it?" There was little offe r ed until I stuck my n e ck out and said I w ould spend it on e ducation, making a balanced program of e ducation and r ec r e ation available to all children. This would be a year-round program and would also include arts. This opened the flood gates and some ve ry inte resting discussion follo w ed. The r egular sess ion on the politics of the situation w a s l e d by staff members. The afte rnoon wa s fr ee and I took the time to call on some fri e nds, i n cluding Dick Russell and H e rman Talmadge , but found them both busy on Committ ee s. The evening session was at Howard College a n d I think this was for we did not get a chan c e to s ee the ir pl a nt. The session was interes ting to m e . It was l e d by Dr. J. P . Speigel of Brandi e s It was mostly statistical data, which prob ably accom1ted for the comments of some. a m i stake very Univ e rsity. unfavorable It was an analy sis of the cause of riot s and disorders and an attempt to r elat e t h e m to e vents and conditions. However, whe n they s e emed to h ave esta blishe d a tr e nd , a riot would occur w h e r e l e ast e x p e cte d . Thursday , Nov e mbe r 2: I n this s e ss i on, th e discussion was l ed by Congressman Joseph Karth of Minnesota and Congr es sman Mc D ad e of P e nnsyl v ani a . Both w e r e g o od and m a d e a v e ry g ood pr ese nta tion of th e v i e w from C a pitol Hill on crime as · the numb e r one probl e m today . Figur e s q uot e d indicate d tha t 50% of crime is committe d by narcotics, and t h i s cannot flouri s h w i thout corruption. Also q uote d w as an estima t e that the ann u a l t ake of crime if $7 billion - the m a j or source s b e ing n a r cotics, loan s h a r ks , num b e r s r acke t, and s lot m ac hines . The afte rnoon s e ssi on was l e d b y Mr. John B a k e r of the A g ricultur e D e p a rtm ent. Contr a r y to e x p e cta ti ons , hi s t a l k was not o n f arms and produce , but on pl a n n e d u se of l a nd to pr e v e nt shuns and pove rty i n rur a l a r eas .

H e re an e ffort i s b e in g m a de t o promote industry to provide j ob s a n d job train i ng and stop the mi grati on to the cities. �Page Six To sum up the entire confe rence, I would say it was well planned and excellent in subjects chos en . To express the findings in a few words, I would say the people, all people, are frustrated and want to be heard, to feel th a t they have a part i n making things go . There was considerable talk of "power structure" to which my r eply was "We do not have a power structure in Atlanta. 11 J. M.

M, FLANIGEN CONFERENCE PARTICIPANT Sunday, October 22: The conference started with dinner at the Sheraton Carlton followed by an address by Dr, Garrett Hardin, Professor of Biology at the University of California. It is difficult to reconcile biology with urban affairs, but he did it by tracing ethnic principles and the fact that any race, white, red, yellow, or black has a basic love and loyalty to its own ancestry. The talk was provocative and brought out good discussion, especially in view of the fact that none in the group had seen each other before dinner, Monday, October 23: The morning session was one of orientation. We were divided into three groups: planning, politics and private sector. Each group discussed the subjects they thought would be of interest and from this the program was finalized and assignments made for our day in the field, In the afternoon the groups were brought together for consolidation of ideas. The evening was free for dinner and whatever we wanted to do. Tuesday, October 24: The morning session was led by Professor Jules Chametsky, Associate Professor of English at the University of Massachusetts. I seemed to be the only one in the group who thought well of his discussion. It surprised me that a man in a relatively small college would have such a knowledge and grasp of the situation in cities. To me, he put his finger on the situation, and by a series of metaphors and examples brought the search for power by different groups (air power, Page Two police power, black power, and student power) and the resultant frustration leading to the use of drugs to give an illusion of power. This, to me, expressed the keynote of the entire conference: frustration. The afternoon session was to be led by Congressman Curtis of Missouri, but he was called back to The Capitol before he could get started. But what he did say confirmed the evidence of frustration: more strikes, higher interest rates, higher wages, and inflation. The minimum wage will increase unemployment. Again, the evening was free for our own desires. Wednesday, October 25: The morning session was led by Herbert Striner of the Upjohn Institute for Employment Research. This was one of the best talks we had, and he started out by saying that everybody was an Economist, and there were two kinds: (1) The simple. one to whom all things are simple to the simple, and (2) nothing is simple and economics makes simple things difficult, He mentioned the national debt, and said that as long as the gross national product exceeded the debt there was nothing to worry about. A theory I cannot go along with completely, In his discussion of job opportunities he made a good point in that employers are discouraging workers by insisting on complete investigation before employment. If men in need of a job report and find that they cannot be put to work until they and their records have been examined, they will give up and stay on relief, The afternoon session was on the political situation and the possibilities of the 1968 elections. The evening session was a briefing on our day in the field the next day, I drew the trip to Montgomery County, Maryland, where they have just passed an open housing ordinance and have qualified for urban renewal. This trip was most interesting because of our interest in zoning and housing. Apparently the people did not worry about the open housing because of the high prices of homes ($30 -$40,000). Page Three Dinner was at the Anthony House, with debriefing session later, Friday, October 27: This session was given over to reports and discussion of what we had seen and learned on the field trips. The problems in Washington are not different from Atlanta, but I believe we are handling them better. A school problem, involving a new superintendent brought forth a meeting similar to the one in Atlanta the week before. However, this one was carried to the courts. The afternoon was free time soI went to see and talk with the Health Depart- ment. about how they were handling the Alcoholics. I was very much dis- appointed in the little time given me, but did find out that they have set up detoxification centers in all precinct police stations, with nurses in attendance. This is followed up with examinations and committment to a hospital if necessary. Dinner was at the Carlton, followed by a discussion on crime and the courts by Mr. Samuel Dash from the Georgetown University Law Center.

I was certainly proud of the Army in the way they handled the situation - just plain,firm discipline, Sunday, October 29: The morning was free and several of us went to church, others found other attractions. The afternoon was a trip to Columbia, the new city between Washington and Baltimore. This was most interesting to see a city planned for 100,000 from Page Four the ground up. A central core of business surrounded by 6 or 8 "villages" of homes with shopping and recreation for each. A pavillion type theatre has been provided and contracts signed for top grade performances. The streets and walkways are so arranged that children can go to and from school without crossing a street. Mini-buses handle traffic to and from the main shopping area. Several industries have located in the city. Monday, October 30: The morning session was on government and covered everything from municipal to the Federal Government, It was brought out that there was a gap between the cities and the Federal Government that must be filled. The state must do its share. Metro government has been rejected by the people in practically all cases. Combined city and county has worked in a few cases.

The Council of Governments (COG) in Washington seems to be an answer, temporary or interim, at least, but a stepping stone. The discussion was continued in the afternoon with John Gunther, Executive Director of the Conference of Mayors, and Walter Scheiber, Executive Director of the Washington Council of Governments. I was pleased that Mr. Gunther spoke very highly of Atlanta in his remarks. There is no reason why our Council of Governments will not work. The evening was free, Tuesday, October 31: The day's session on urban technology and systematic management was a general discussion on how technology can be fitted into politics and vice versa, A very interesting discussion on the age old problem of trying to bring these two sides together. The evening meeting was supposed to be at the Potter's House on churches and cities, but because of a mix up on bus schedules we could not get in to the place. Congresswoman Edith Green of Oregon was the leader. I was anxious to hear this because I think there is a place for the church in the inner city and have been interested in our own efforts with St. Jude's House, Emmaus House and the Kirkwood Center. Page Five Wendesday, November 1: Before the morning session started a man from the Academy of Science came in and posed a question: "If you had several million dollars to spend in your city, what would you do with it?'' There was little offered until I stuck my neck out and said I would spend it on education, making a balanced program of education and recreation available to all children. This would be a year-round program and would also include arts. This opened the flood gates and some very interesting discussion followed. The regular session on the politics of the situation was led by staff members, The afternoon was free and I took the time to call on some friends, including Dick Russell and Herman Talmadge, but found them both busy on Committees. The evening session was at Howard College and I think this was a mistake for we did not get a chance to see their plant, The session was very interesting tome. It was led by Dr. J. P. Speigel of Brandies University, It was mostly statistical data, which probably accounted for the unfavorable comments of some. It was an analysis of the cause of riots and disorders and an attempt to relate them to events and conditions. However, when they seemed to have established a trend, a riot would occur where least expected. Thursday, November 2: In this session, the discussion was led by Congressman Joseph Karth of Minnesota and Congressman McDade of Pennsylvania. Both were good and made a very good presentation of the view from Capitol Hill on crime as the number one problem today. Figures quoted indicated that 50% of crime is committed by narcotics, and this cannot flourish without corruption. Also quoted was an estimate that the annual take of crime if $7 billion - the major sources being narcotics, loan sharks, numbers racket, and slot machines. The afternoon session was led by Mr. John Baker of the Agriculture Depart- ment, Contrary to expectations, his talk was not on farms and produce, but on planned use of land to prevent slums and poverty in rural areas. One example he gave that was news to me is an organization of South Georgia counties around Jesup, Baxley, Lyons and Reidsville. Here an effort is being made to promote industry to provide jobs and job training and stop the migration to the cities, Page Six To sum up the entire conference, I would say it was well planned and excellent in subjects chosen. To express the findings in a few words, I would say the people, all people, are frustrated and want to be heard, to feel that they have a part in making things go, There was considerable talk of 'power structure" to which my reply was "We do not have a power structure in Atlanta," J.

Continental Colony News Published By Continental Development Corp., Atlanta $18 Million SW Complex Apartments In A Garden Setting Will Be The Feature Of The Proposed $18 Million Continental Colony Complex Civic Leaders Hail Benefits To Area Residents Continental Development Corpor ation h as announced it will invest a minimum of $18 million in the future development of Southwest Atlanta with the construction of a luxury apartment complex immediately south of Greenbriar Shopping Center. The anno uncement was hailed by Southwest Atlanta businessmen, civic and professional clubs, public officials and residents as a tremendous asset for the area. The directors of the West End Business Men's Association, in a reso lution adopted Dec. 30, 1966, said the establis hment of the lux ury apartments "would be beneficial to the economy and well-being of th is area." Continental Development Corporation President Fred J . Schwaemmle, Jr., said the prestigious complex will have an elaborate $120,000 clubhouse facilityscheduled to have indoor and outdoor swimming pools, tennis courts and golf putting greens - which will be made available to r esidential owners in the adjoining Continental Colony Residentia l subdivision. Mr. Schwaemmle a lso reported the new development will be separated by a landscaped area at least 150 feet wide from the adj acent residential area. The overall design of the screening and buffer zone will be la id out according to a design by award-winning la ndscape-architect Willard C. Byrd. "The buffer zone w ill be in a parklike setting," Mr. Byrd said, "and it will be designed not only to screen but to look attractive." The plantings will include grass, hed ges . shrubs and such flowering trees as magnolias and dogwood. Creation of the apartment complex w ill also serve as a buffer zone between the residential subdivisi-on and the commercial property planned at Greenbriar, commented Terry B. Knight, who is one of the 50 appraisers in Georgia designated a MAI (a Member of American Ins titute of Real Esta t e Appraisers). " In f act," Mr. Knight said, "it is my opinion as an appraiser t hat this proposed (apartment) development will provide that most desirable buffer between the single-family residential subdivision and the area zoned commercial which will be developed in the near future with variou s types of improvements." Traffic engineers sard the development of the apartment complex a lso w ill r elieve the heavy fl ow of vehicles on the residentia l streets of Continential Colony created by peopJ.e driving to Greenbriar from the south .

"It also is a buffer fr.om the side view of the Greenbriar Shopping Oenter." Mr. Knight, who made an on-site inspection November 21 for the purpose of determining the feasibility of the proposed development, said: " I have been in the mortgage loan business in Atlanta for 12 years and have made several loans in the Continental Colony Subdivision which adjoins the subject property. I am also an appraiser holding the MAI designation (a Member of American ln-stitute of Real Estate Appraisers) allld have made appmisals on houses adjoining the subj ect prop,erty. "Based on my personal inspection of this property and seeing the proposed plot plan showing a 150-foot buffer zone between the apartment buildings and the homes on Black Forest Trail (homes nearest to the apartment) and knowing the type apartments tha t are proposed on this site, I do not feel the single fa mily homes will be affected adversely." In review, Mr. Knight said it is his opinion that "an attractive apartment project on this site would be a proper improvement and would not adversely affect the value of the surrounding prop er ty." � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.

Covenant Gives 150-Foot Buffer Zone Between Apartment Complex & Homes Continental Development Corporation has entered into a covenant establishing a 150-foot buffer zone between the planned $18-million luxury apartments and the rear property lines of residences on Sorrento Circle and Black Forest Trail. The full text of the convenant, which will be filed at the Fulton County Court- house after the property is properly rezoned, states: GEORGIA FULTON COUNTY COVENANT This Covenant made this the 12th day of December, 1966, by Continental Development Corporation, a corporation of Fulton County, Georgia.

CONTINENTAL DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION By Fred J, Schwaemmle, Jr., President Signed, sealed and delivered in the presence of: Clifford Oxford Brenda M. Lord Notary Public: Notary Public, Georgia, State at Large My Commission Expires Oct. 29, 1969  danielson and pgine-- architects These Apartments To Grace Proposed Colony Complex; Front and Rear To Look Alike Near Residences Little Effect On Schools Seen For Complex Plans of the Atlanta Board of Edu- eation assure adequate school facilities to accommodate the developments of the Continental Development Corporation, said president Fred Schwaemmle, Jr., himself a parent and resident of the Greenbriar area. “The site for the Continental Colony elementary school was included in the original development plans of the corp- oration and the Board decided upon this site at the urging of the corporation. This site was sold to the Board of Edu- cation at cost. “The school is architecturally design- ed to accommodate the addition of eight classrooms to the north without interfer- ing with the overall operation or design. This school was established in this area to accommodate children living on the east side of the perimeter highway. “Approximately 50% of the present enrollment comes from the west side of the perimeter highway, an area to be served by the new Ben Hill School and a school to be located in the Brent- wood sub-division, a site established in the overall land plan of this sub-divis- ion.” Mr. Schwaemmile said it can be readily seen that the Atlanta Board of Educa- tion is cognizant of the development in this area and appropriate plans have been developed to assure the orderly construction of adequate school facili- Benefits To Area Residents Real estate specialists report the pro- posed $18 million Continental Colony quality apartment complex will provide a variety of benefits to homeowners in the adjoining subdivision. These benefits include: 1. Location of the garden-type apart- ments with its 150-foot park-like land- seaped buffer zone “will provide the most desirable buffer” between the ex- isting residential area and the commer- cial buildings scheduled to be erected on the south side of Greenbriar Shopping Center. That's the report of Terry B. Knight, an appraiser who is assistant vice pres- ident of Citizens and Southern National Bank, who added that it was his pro- fessional opinion that the single-family homes in Continental Colony Subdivision will not be adversely affected. 2. Creation of the luxury apartment development will include an extension of Mt. Gilead Road with the four-lane Hogan-Stone Road connector and will remove traffic bound to and from Green- briar from the residential streets of Continental Colony Subdivision. 3. Increase the re-salability of exist- ing homes through the added feature of the availability of the plush eclub- house facilities that will be built in the apartment complex. The $120,000 coun- try club-type facility will include swim- ming pools, golf putting and chipping greens, tennis and shuffleboard courts and other recreational facilities. ties to accommodate the anticipated growth. The corporation has always en- deavored to advise the school authorities of its plans in this area and they have acted accordingly. Surveys of apartment complexes of similar character and complexion of the ones proposed readily indicate an ex- tremely small percentage of school age children. ‘Mir. West End’ Says SW Growth Depends On Colony Complex Edgar E. Schukraft, widely known as “Mr. West End,” says the creation of the $18 million Continental Colony apartment complex is “a real move in the right direction for this section.” “This area is on the threshold of a great forward movement,” commented Mr. Schukraft, former president of the West End Business Men’s Association, “and this project is of the utmost im- portance to Southwest Atlanta,” Too long, Mr. Schukraft said, South- west Atlanta has failed to participate to its full potential in the dynamic growth of Metropolitan Atlanta. “But now this whole section is ready to go, and it is almost imperative that the Continental Colony complex be de- veloped as planned,” he said. “This will be a real factor in the future growth of Southwest Atlanta. “Now we have the opportunity to step out,” he declared, “and we should do it without delay.”  Unusual Features Of Clubhouse In Proposed New Continental Colony Complex To Include Indoor Swimming Pool Club Facilities Open To Subdivision Residents Residents of the Continental Colony Sub-division will be welcome to use the variety of recreational facilities—includ- ing a private clubhouse—planned for Continental Development Corporation's $18-million luxury apartment complex. Fred Schwaemmle, Jr., president of Continental Development, said the op- portunity to enjoy the facilities will be offered “on a reasonable basis, subject to the rules and regulations established by the corporation.” Mr. Schwaemmle said the clubhouse will include lounges, formal dining and meeting rooms, billiard rooms, exercise and sauna facilities, plus appropriate swimming pools. There also will be golf putting and chipping greens, tennis and shuffleboard courts. “These proposed facilities will be a deciding factor in attracting quality people to the area, and an extension of these privileges to the adjoining resi- MAI Appraiser Sees Terry B. Knight, a member of the ' American Institute of Real Estate Ap- praisers, said he does not feel nearby single family homes will be affected adversely by the $18 - million luxury apartment development. “In fact, it is my opinion as an ap- praiser that this proposed development (with the 150-foot buffer zone) will provide the most desirable buffer be- tween the single family residential sub- division and the area zone commercial which will be developed in the near SW Businessmen Endorse Complex Continued From Page 1 and Hogan Road in the residential sub- division, Mr. Schwaemmle said the proposed apartments, where rents will begin at $150 a month for single bedroom units, are designed to appeal to executive-type residents. Most of the apartments will have wood-burning fireplaces, with rich wood paneling and attractive wall coverings among their many luxurious appoint- ments. All are designed for indoor-out- door living with enclosed patios and balconies, Mr. Schwaemmle said the new com- plex, designed with a very low density of units per acre by architects Daniel- son and Paine, will not create an over- crowded condition at Continental Colony School, “Surveys of apartment complexes of similar character and completion of the one we propose readily indicate an ex- tremely small percentage of school-age children,” Mr. Schwaemmle reported. The recreation facilities to be made available to Continental Colony sub- division residents will include the pri- vate clubhouse—which will have lounges, formal dining and meeting rooms, bil- lard rooms, exercise and sauna rooms —golf putting and chipping greens, ten- nis and shuffieboard courts. dents will certainly make this entire area an attractive and prestige loca- tion,” declared Mr. Schwaemmle. No Ill Effects future with various types of improve- ments,” said Mr. Knight. “It also is a buffer from the side view of the Green- briar Shopping Center.” Mr. Knight, who made an on-site in- spection November 21 for the purpose of determining the feasibility of the proposed development, said: “IT have been in the mortgage loan business in Atlanta for 12 years and have made several loans in the Conti- nental Colony Subdivision which adjoins the subject property. I am also an appraiser holding the MAI designation (a Member of American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers) and have made appraisals on houses adjoining the sub- ject property. “Based on my personal inspection of this property and seeing the proposed plot plan showing a 150-foot buffer zone between the apartment buildings and the homes on Black Forest Trail (homes nearest to the apartment) and knowing the type apartments that are proposed on this site, I do not feel the single family homes will be affected adversely.” In review, Mr. Knight said it is his opinion that “an attractive apartment project on this site would be a proper improvement and would not adversely affect the value of the surrounding property.”  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
