Sandy Springs Area Annexation
Schools - Dr. Darwin Wom.ack . . . . Atlanta School System
Existing Facilities
The area is presently served by the Fulton County School Board
which is having its financial problems. Both the City School
System and the County School System have some shortage of high
school facilities on the north side.
Needs
If Sandy Springs is annexed, the annexation should extend far
enough north to include the North Springs High School and the Morgan
Falls Elementary School. To do this, a suitable boundary would be
the power line running east and west along the north side of Land
Lots 21, 31 , 75 and 85. The Atlanta School Department favors the
annexation of Sandy Springs.

Sandy Springs Area Annexation
Parks Department - A. P. Brindley
Existing Facilities
None.
Needs
One community park between twelve (12) and thirty (30) acres.
Estimated cost of land, $250,000 (25 acres at $10,000 an acre).
Development of this park would cost from $200,000 to $300,000. It
is possible that federal funds may be available up to 50% for both
acquisition and development. No estimate is made at this time of
the need for neighborhood parks and playgrounds.
If the Community park is acquired and developed some additional
personnel will be necessary to carry on the recreation program.

Sandy Springs Area Annexation
Sanitary Service - Mr. Roy Wood - Sanitary Department
Existing Service
Garbage collection is presently performed by the City under contract
with the County for residence in the area north to Abernathy Road.
This area is designated as a sanitary district and homeowners are
taxed by Fulton County for this service. Businesses are charged
on a sliding scale up to $1,000 for collection.
Needs
If the area is annexed, some improvement would be necessary over
the present level of sanitary service. A sanitary landfill and a bulldozer would
have to be acquired and a bulldozer operator provided. There would
be two additional garbage trucks needed with crews if the area
north of Dalryrne Road (Area Band C) is included. To serve Area A
two street sweepers and six trash trucks with crews will be needed.
Areas B and C will require one sweeper and three trash trucks.
An additional animal truck will be needed in the event of any annexa-
tion in the area.

CHIEF PLANNER
To:
Ivan Allen, Jr •.
From:
Date:
Collier B. Gladin
Subject:
December 9, 1965
Sandy Springs Annexation
1.
Attached is a brief discussion of facilities and services, ex~sting
and needed if the Sandy Springs area is-\;8:nnexed as well: as sane other
pertinent infoqnation. Land Use is ·indicated on the map of North
Fulton County. Area · "A" is 1965 data; "B" and "C" are 1961 data.
2.
Sandy Springs is primarily residential area of low density development
where many Urban services are now provided by the City of Atlanta
under contract with Fulton County. The City performs these services
on a non-profit basis with the exception of water revenues.
3.
On a dollar and cents basis; it will cost Atlanta considerable money
to annex Sandy Springs. The existing level of services will have to
be improved, and if this area beco·mes a part of the City wate ,: rates
will have to be reduced, resulting in a substantial loss of r~venue.
As a general rule, taxes on residential properties are not adequate
to offset the cost of Urban services performed for them.
4.
Annexation of Sandy Springs would give Atlanta an elongated shape,
roughly similar to that of Fulton County, stretching nineteen miles
from the City Hall to Roswell on the north and ten miles to bt!yond
Ben Hill in the Southwest. If Fulton County industrial area and
the great sout~1est corporation properties are ever taken in t he
City, the Southwest distance becomes fourteen miles. These d i stances and the shape will present problems in administration , access,
and communication. Ideally a circular shape of eight to ten u iles
would be much more economical for the traxpayer and easier to ~dminister • . An Atlanta shaped like this would have at least 200, 000 more
people and eighty square miles more territory, most . of which would be
already densely developed with a variety of land uses which wo uld
complement .and support a desirable level of Urban ser vices ancl
fa ci lities .
5.
We wil l continue our .ef f or ts t o s e cure available dat a on this ar ea .

CHIEF PLANNER
To: Ivan Allen, Jr. Date: December 9, 1965
From: Collier B. Gladin Subject: Sandy Springs Annexat:ion
1. Attached is a brief discussion of facilities and services, ex:sting
and needed if the Sandy Springs area is,annexed as well as sone other
pertinent information. Land Use is indicated on the map of North
Fulton County. Area "A" is 1965 data; "B" and "C" are 1961 data.
2. Sandy Springs is primarily residential area of low density development
where many Urban services are now provided by the City of Atlanta
under contract with Fulton County. The City performs these services
on a non-profit basis with the exception of water revenues.
3. On a dollar and cents basis, it will cost Atlanta considerable money
to annex Sandy Springs. The existing level of services will have to
be improved, and if this area becomes a part of the City water rates
will have to be reduced, resulting in a substantial loss of revenue.
As a general rule, taxes on residential properties are not adequate
to offset the cost of Urban services performed for them,
4. Annexation of Sandy Springs would give Atlanta an elongated sliape,
roughly similar to that of Fulton County, stretching nineteen miles
from the City Hall to Roswell on the north and ten miles to beyond
Ben Hill in the Southwest. If Fulton County industrial area and
the great southwest corporation properties are ever taken in the
City, the Southwest distance becomes fourteen miles. These dis-
tances and the shape will present problems in administration, access,
and communication. Ideally a circular shape of eight to ten iiles
would be much more economical for the taxpayer and easier to admin-
ister. An Atlanta shaped like this would have at least 200,000 more
people and eighty square miles more territory, most of which would be
already densely developed with a variety of land uses which would
complement and support a desirable level of Urban services and
facilities.
5. We will continue our efforts to secure available data on this area.

in Sandy Springs or if located inside the city limits. He said enough representative
examples should be prepared that any Sandy Springs resident could find a case closely
similar to his own situation. The idea met enthusiastic approval, and Mr. Farris
said he would proceed with it.
Mr. Ivey brought up a num.ber of points of interest or concern to Sandy
Springs residents, which he said were the main issues about which citizens had
approached him. Eaph point was discussed in turn, as follows:
-- Tax assessors board -- Could Sandy Springs be offered a representative
on the Joint City-County Board of Tax Assessors?
It was agreed that the area, iI a part of the city, would actually be better
represented on the board, since the board presently has two members from the city
and one from the county. Mayor Allen said he didn't think it feasible or possible to
name a new member from a specific area.
-- Library board:- If Sandy Springs joined the city as a new ward, would
the area automatically g~t a representative on the Library Board?
If a new ward, this would be automatic for one library board member , one
school board member and two aldermen. Mayor Allen pointed out, though, that Sandy
Springs has only about 24, 000 residents, whereas some 500, 000 people make up the
present eight city wards, an average of about 62, 000 per ward. He said some ward
realignment probably would be necessary . Mr. Matthews said a proposed annexation
act already drawn, at the request of Rep. -ele ct Rodney Cook, defines Sandy Springs
as a new ward and specifically calls for a special election to name two aldermen and
one school board member for the ward, to be voted on only by the residents of the
area concerned.
-- Zoning and lic enses : What would be the effect of the transition to city
zoning requirements, and could Sandy Springs be assured representation on the Joint
Zoning Board ?

approved or business licenses already issued. A business license in effect would
continue and would come up for renewal as usual, unless the licensee should lose
the privilege for cause. Mr. Farris said naming an alderman from a specific area
to the Aldermanic Zoning Committee is not done. It was agreed, though, that
possibly an understanding could be reached about the appointment of a Sandy Springs
resident to the Joint Zoning Board .
-- Police protection and precinct stations: Would the citjr assure Sandy
Springs of a precinct station?
Mr. Farris said two·-way radio communications and other modern facilities
are doing away with the precinct station concept instead of creating new stations . It
�..

was brought out that Sandy Springs people seem to think a precinct station would
increase their protection, and it was agreed that the question is one which should
be answered in publicity about the proposed referendum. About six hours of the
24, there are no policemen on duty in Sandy Springs under present arrangements,
the mayor was told. Mayor Allen commented on the overall need for additional
police protection throughout the city. The city presently has about 1. 5 policemen
for every 1, 000 population, he said, and the rest of the metropolitan area has a
much lower ratio.
-- Fire protection: What would happen when Sandy Springs joined the
city in the way of ne w fire stations, etc. ?
Mayor Allen said the Southeastern Underwriters would conduct a survey
to determine the needs in Sandy Springs, and their recommendations would have to
be followed for Atlanta to maintain its Class III rating. Sandy Springs presently has
a Class VI rating. Preliminary investigation by the city shows the need for three new
fire stations, one of which would replace the existing station, Mayor Allen said.
However, the survey by the Southeastern Underwriters would be controlling . He
a ssured Sandy Springs repre s entatives that the city would not r isk loss of its Class
III rating.
·'
-- School transportation: Sandy Springs would gain kindergartens in its
public schools, but how many school children would lose their school bus transportation?
Mr. Farris com m ented that it i s apparent the city and county school systems
will be consolidated. But he said the Atlanta Transit System could work out a program
of bus t ransportation for the students affected, t he same as the company conduct s for
the City of Atlanta system . Pupils pay to ride these buses .
-- Teacher benefits : Sandy Springs teachers a r e wondering where they
would stand on their retirement programs, etc., if annexation occurs.
Mr . Landers s aid the Pl an of Impr ovement spells out b eyond a doubt t hat
benefits , including r etirem ent, follow an employee from one system to a nother . It
was agreed, however , tha t this que s tion should be a ns wered for the te acher s and that
Mr. A. D. Jones of the local s chool teacher s organization would be the logi cal man to
handle that issue.
-- School desegregation: Is any appreciabl e school desegregation likely
to fo llow annexation?
About 30 Negro c hildren from Sandy Springs are presently being transported
to one school, and there has been no desegregation. All the children live in a rundown
s e ction, and most probably would attend the Guy Webb Elementary School, if desegregation
occur red.
Mayor Allen said the city system has faced up to its responsibilities and
that its policies, already in practice , would be continued throughout the city system.
�Page 4
Minutes of Meeting on Sandy Springs
January 4, 1966
He said he hoped the matter would not be an issue, but that if it became one, it
would be met forthrightly.
-- Sewerage, water and garbage: Sewer service, in particular, is
limited at present. Is there any way those residents without sewers, and where
no .sewers are immediately planned, could be relieved of sewer charges? What
would happen with water service and sanitation service?
Mayor Al.len said there would definitely be no sewer charges for anyone
not using sewers, and there would be none until the service is used. He and Mr.
Farris explained the city's revolving fund for sewers, which is used to construct
sewers and then replenished by assessments on residents who tap on to the line.
Those who don't tap on don't pay a dime.
residents.
Water charges (minimum bill) would be cut in half for Sandy Springs
This would be mostly a "plus" factor favoring the residents.
Garbage pickup schedules would be improved, rubbish collections added
and sanitation charge s reduced. It was agreed that the schedule of pickups should
be stressed in publicity and particulars spelled out for the homeowner and the
commercial user.
-- Streets, sidewalks and street lights: What changes would occur in
these areas, particularly sidewalks near schools?
Property owners can petition for sidewalks and be assessed by front
footage , the Mayor and Mr. Landers explained, but the city can move in without
petition to construct sidewalks and assess property owners, if necessary for safety.
The city builds sidewalks in front of schools at city expense.
To meet city standards, about 1, 350 lights would be needed on arterial
streets and about 2, 800 in residential neighborhoods, Mayor Allen said. Some
$9, 000 annually is being spent in Sandy Springs now for street lighting; addition
of those improvements would jump the cost to about $181, 000 annually after five
years .
-- Liquor stores: Sandy Springs presently has only three liquor store s,
the maximum possible under county requirements . What would happen because of
the difference in county and city requirements ?
Mayor Allen said this is a point which should be met with purely business
arguments. After some discussion, it was agreed this probably would not be a serious
issue in the referendum.
The Mayor asked Mr. Driskell to serve as temporary secretary of the
group and to work with Mr. Farris in compiling memoranda on (a) all available data
regarding the boundary question and (b) answers to all questions brought up at this
meeting, plus others that arise.
�I-· .•

Mayor Allen said he did not want to rush into the boundary question until
further study. He said he didn 1 t know whether he could, in good conscience, commit
the city to the financial burden attached to including the entire area and requested
several days to consider the matter.
After further brief discussion, the meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,
Curtis H. Driskell

B, and C -- as part of the city. He cited the lower density of population in Areas B

to the city.
Sandy Springs representatives expressed the unanimous feeling that the
entire area defined as Sandy Springs should be included in any annexation effort if it
is to be successful. Inclusion of any less would be short-sighted, they said, for
several reasons:
1. About 75 per cent of the area not now developed is already planned
for development, and more planning is being done all the time.
2. Population is increasing in Areas B and C ata rate equal to, or ahead
of, Area A. Some of the finest new homes are being built in Areas B and C.
3. The Chattahoochee River, which bounds Sandy Springs on the west and
north, would serve as a natural boundary and better than an arbitrary line set on
another basis.
4. Psychologically, taking part of the area and leaving the rest outside
the city would create a "no-man's land" and possibly would damage the community
closeness presently felt by Sandy Springs residents. It was brought out that Sandy
Springs residents would feel less harmonious with Roswell, where some Sandy
Springs children would go to school if only part of the area joined the city.
Discussion of taxes and service charges followed. Mr. Farris suggested
that the applicable information on several hundred homes be run through computer
machines to arrive at the exact taxes and service charges for these homes if located

approved or business licenses already issued. A business license in effect would
continue and would come up for renewal as usual, unless the licensee should lose
the privilege for cause. Mr. Farris said naming an alderman from a specific area
to the Aldermanic Zoning Committee is not done. It was agreed, though, that
possibly an understanding could be reached about the appointment of a Sandy Springs
resident to the Joint Zoning Board .
-- Police protection and precinct stations: Would the citjr assure Sandy
Springs of a precinct station?
Mr. Farris said two·-way radio communications and other modern facilities
are doing away with the precinct station concept instead of creating new stations . It
�..

was brought out that Sandy Springs people seem to think a precinct station would
increase their protection, and it was agreed that the question is one which should
be answered in publicity about the proposed referendum. About six hours of the
24, there are no policemen on duty in Sandy Springs under present arrangements,
the mayor was told. Mayor Allen commented on the overall need for additional
police protection throughout the city. The city presently has about 1. 5 policemen
for every 1, 000 population, he said, and the rest of the metropolitan area has a
much lower ratio.
-- Fire protection: What would happen when Sandy Springs joined the
city in the way of ne w fire stations, etc. ?
Mayor Allen said the Southeastern Underwriters would conduct a survey
to determine the needs in Sandy Springs, and their recommendations would have to
be followed for Atlanta to maintain its Class III rating. Sandy Springs presently has
a Class VI rating. Preliminary investigation by the city shows the need for three new
fire stations, one of which would replace the existing station, Mayor Allen said.
However, the survey by the Southeastern Underwriters would be controlling . He
a ssured Sandy Springs repre s entatives that the city would not r isk loss of its Class
III rating.
·'
-- School transportation: Sandy Springs would gain kindergartens in its
public schools, but how many school children would lose their school bus transportation?
Mr. Farris com m ented that it i s apparent the city and county school systems
will be consolidated. But he said the Atlanta Transit System could work out a program
of bus t ransportation for the students affected, t he same as the company conduct s for
the City of Atlanta system . Pupils pay to ride these buses .
-- Teacher benefits : Sandy Springs teachers a r e wondering where they
would stand on their retirement programs, etc., if annexation occurs.
Mr . Landers s aid the Pl an of Impr ovement spells out b eyond a doubt t hat
benefits , including r etirem ent, follow an employee from one system to a nother . It
was agreed, however , tha t this que s tion should be a ns wered for the te acher s and that
Mr. A. D. Jones of the local s chool teacher s organization would be the logi cal man to
handle that issue.
-- School desegregation: Is any appreciabl e school desegregation likely
to fo llow annexation?
About 30 Negro c hildren from Sandy Springs are presently being transported
to one school, and there has been no desegregation. All the children live in a rundown
s e ction, and most probably would attend the Guy Webb Elementary School, if desegregation
occur red.
Mayor Allen said the city system has faced up to its responsibilities and
that its policies, already in practice , would be continued throughout the city system.
�Page 4

He said he hoped the matter would not be an issue, but that if it became one, it
would be met forthrightly.
-- Sewerage, water and garbage: Sewer service, in particular, is
limited at present. Is there any way those residents without sewers, and where
no .sewers are immediately planned, could be relieved of sewer charges? What
would happen with water service and sanitation service?
Mayor Al.len said there would definitely be no sewer charges for anyone
not using sewers, and there would be none until the service is used. He and Mr.
Farris explained the city's revolving fund for sewers, which is used to construct
sewers and then replenished by assessments on residents who tap on to the line.
Those who don't tap on don't pay a dime.
residents.
Water charges (minimum bill) would be cut in half for Sandy Springs
This would be mostly a "plus" factor favoring the residents.
Garbage pickup schedules would be improved, rubbish collections added
and sanitation charge s reduced. It was agreed that the schedule of pickups should
be stressed in publicity and particulars spelled out for the homeowner and the
commercial user.
-- Streets, sidewalks and street lights: What changes would occur in
these areas, particularly sidewalks near schools?
Property owners can petition for sidewalks and be assessed by front
footage , the Mayor and Mr. Landers explained, but the city can move in without
petition to construct sidewalks and assess property owners, if necessary for safety.
The city builds sidewalks in front of schools at city expense.
To meet city standards, about 1, 350 lights would be needed on arterial
streets and about 2, 800 in residential neighborhoods, Mayor Allen said. Some
$9, 000 annually is being spent in Sandy Springs now for street lighting; addition
of those improvements would jump the cost to about $181, 000 annually after five
years .
-- Liquor stores: Sandy Springs presently has only three liquor store s,
the maximum possible under county requirements . What would happen because of
the difference in county and city requirements ?
Mayor Allen said this is a point which should be met with purely business
arguments. After some discussion, it was agreed this probably would not be a serious
issue in the referendum.
The Mayor asked Mr. Driskell to serve as temporary secretary of the
group and to work with Mr. Farris in compiling memoranda on (a) all available data
regarding the boundary question and (b) answers to all questions brought up at this
meeting, plus others that arise.

Mayor Allen said he did not want to rush into the boundary question until
further study. He said he didn 1 t know whether he could, in good conscience, commit
the city to the financial burden attached to including the entire area and requested
several days to consider the matter.
After further brief discussion, the meeting was adjourned.

Subject:
December 9, 1965
Sandy Springs Annexation
1.
Attached is a brief discussion of facilities and services, ex~sting
and needed if the Sandy Springs area is-\;8:nnexed as well: as sane other
pertinent infoqnation. Land Use is ·indicated on the map of North
Fulton County. Area · "A" is 1965 data; "B" and "C" are 1961 data.
2.
Sandy Springs is primarily residential area of low density development
where many Urban services are now provided by the City of Atlanta
under contract with Fulton County. The City performs these services
on a non-profit basis with the exception of water revenues.
3.
On a dollar and cents basis; it will cost Atlanta considerable money
to annex Sandy Springs. The existing level of services will have to
be improved, and if this area beco·mes a part of the City wate ,: rates
will have to be reduced, resulting in a substantial loss of r~venue.
As a general rule, taxes on residential properties are not adequate
to offset the cost of Urban services performed for them.
4.
Annexation of Sandy Springs would give Atlanta an elongated shape,
roughly similar to that of Fulton County, stretching nineteen miles
from the City Hall to Roswell on the north and ten miles to bt!yond
Ben Hill in the Southwest. If Fulton County industrial area and
the great sout~1est corporation properties are ever taken in t he
City, the Southwest distance becomes fourteen miles. These d i stances and the shape will present problems in administration , access,
and communication. Ideally a circular shape of eight to ten u iles
would be much more economical for the traxpayer and easier to ~dminister • . An Atlanta shaped like this would have at least 200, 000 more
people and eighty square miles more territory, most . of which would be
already densely developed with a variety of land uses which wo uld
complement .and support a desirable level of Urban ser vices ancl
fa ci lities .

Sanitary Service - Mr. Roy Wood - Sanitary Department
Existing Service Garbage collection .is presently performed by the City under contract
with the County for residence in the area north to Aber~athy Road.
This area is designated as a sanitary district and homeowners are
taxed by Fulton County for this service.
Businesses are charged
on a sliding scale up to $1,000 for collection.
Needs If the area is annexed, some improvement would be necessary over
the present level of sanitary service.
A sanitary landfill andl e. bulldozer would
have to be acquired and a bulldozer operator provided.
There would
be two additional garbage trucks needed with crews if the area
north of Dalryrne Road (Area Band C) is included.
To serve Area A
two street sweepers and six trash trucks with crews will be ne eded.
Areas Band C will require one sweeper and three trash trucks .
An additional animal truck will be needed in the event of any annexa-~

Area B For the developed areas, the need for outfalls and laterals
exists to some extent but does not present a major difficulty.

Area C The treatment of sewage in this area presents nothing bu t
problems due to the rough topography. · The only probable
solution is a · low density of development with septic tanks.

�NEWS RELEASE
from the ATLANTA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
TELEPHONE:
521-0845
FOR RELEASE 4 :00 P . M. SATURDAY
The Atlanta Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors Saturday declared
its support of an ex ension of the Atlanta city limit s to include all or part of the
North Fulton County area of Sandy Springs .
In a r esolution setting out its position, the Board said it is apparent that the
inclusion of Sandy Spr ings as par t of the city would be of mutual benefit to that
community and t he City of Atlanta.
The Board said such a move should be based on a favorable expression on
the par t of the residents involved . It recommended that the residents of Sandy
Springs be given t he oppor t unity in a refer endum during 1966 to express their
preference on whe her t heir area should become part of the city.
The Boa r d rs esolution was announced by Pollard Turman, outgo_ing president
of t he Atlanta Chamber.
The Chambe r Board urged that Sandy Spr ings citizens consider all aspects
of the question, par icula r ly t he advantages to be gained by residents of the area,
a nd tha t they accep he oppor tunity to join the city . "Undue delay in giving this
matter borough and complete consideration would be detrimental to the best
interest of bot h h e Sandy Springs area and the City of Atlanta," the Board added.
Cited in t he resolution as a dvantages to Sa ndy Springs residents by joining
the city were a n impr oved l evel of ur ban services , such as sewers , sanitation
services , a nd fir e pr otection; a ddition of kinder gartens to the public schools;
parks and r ecr eat iona l facilities , and others . ·
Additionally , t he Board sa id, Sandy Springs re sidents would be able to
participate in t he affair s of the city , around which m a ny of their activities and
int erests a r e center e d, by voting on officials and programs undertaken by the
city .
The actual increase in cost to residents for impr oved services and other
a dvantages would be moder a te , the Boa rd said. Although the ad valorem taxes
on homes would be higher , this would be partially offset by reduced service
charges and lower fi r e insurance rates , once fir e p r otection facilities had been
upgraded to City of Atla nta s tandards .
Ba sed on t he la test a vailable information, the Boar d found that the owner
of a typi cal s ingle --fami y frame residence , with a value of $20 , 000 and located
on a 100- foo t lot , would pa y only a.bout $38 . 00 mor e annually . Taxes a nd service
c ha r ge s would be about $64 " 00 highe r but fi r e insur ance r ates some $26 . 0 0 lower .
December 31 1965
�A RESOLUTION
ATLANTA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The Atlanta Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors has long been vitally
concer ned with the orderly and intelligent growth of the City of Atlanta, recognizing
full well the city 's role and responsibilities as the heart of a great and growing metropolitan area . The Board recognizes furt her that the growth and progress of the entire
five-county area have been, and will be in the future, directly related to the wellbeing and continued healthy growth of the city itself.
The needs of the city and of the surrounding metropolitan area -- economic,
educational , cultural, recreational and others -- have been given attentive study by
the Atlanta Chamber, and its utmost efforts have been devoted to insuring that those
needs are met to the benefit and best possible advantage of all citizens.
As with other needs and problems, the Atlanta Chamber has studied and weighed
carefully the benefits inherent in the orderly extension of the city's boundaries to
include as part of the city certain areas adjacent to the present boundaries, and where
a substantial number of citizens already have expressed a desire for the opportunity
to become part of the city .
More specifically, the Atlanta Chamber has studied the feasibility of extending
t he city's boundaries , provided there is a favorable expression on the part of the
r esidents involved, to include some portion or all of the unincorporated area of
North Fulton County known as Sandy Springs.
The findings of the Board of Directors on this matter are as follows:
1. Sandy Springs is an area of some forty square miles and is primarily of
r esidential development, where some 24, 000 citizens reside . A large portion of these
citizens earn their livelihood at jobs within the city of Atlanta, depend on the city for
many of their urban services, and avail themselves of city facilities and other advantages offered by their proximity to a metropolitan center.
2 . In spite of their contributions in other ways to the progress of the city and
t heir dependence on the city for many things, the residents of Sandy Springs are
unable to participate in the affairs of the city by helping to select city officials or
by voting on programs undertaken by the city, around which most of their activities
and interests are centered.
3. The urban services provided to the residents of Sandy Springs, rendered for
the most part by t he City of Atlanta on a contract basis, are not of the same high
level as similar services rendered to residents of the corporate city. Even so, some
of t hese services of necessity cost more for the Sandy Springs resident than a resident
of t he City of Atlanta . The City o.f Atlanta recefves no ad valorem taxes from Sandy
Spr ings r esidents , or from any other residents outside present city boundaries.
�- 2 -
4. Inclusion of any portion, or the entire area of Sandy Springs as part of
the city would result in considerable initial expense to the city because of the necessity
of improving the existing level of services to the area, particularly in the extension of
sewer service to some areas and in the upgrading of fire protection and sanitation
service . A substantial loss of revenue would be incurred by the city because of a
subsequent reduction in water rates to these residents. The city's collections of .a d
valorem taxes within the area would not be nearly adequate to offset the increased
costs of providing improved urban services.
5. In addition to improved urban services, Sandy Springs residents would realize
other benefits, such as the addition of kindergartens to their schools, parks and recreational facilities, and others.
6. The actual increase in cost to Sandy Springs residents for these improved
services would be moderate. A higher rate of ad valorem taxes would be partly offset
by reduced service charges, and further offset by a reduction in fire insurance rates,
once the fire protection facilities of the area had been upgraded to the standards of the
City of Atlanta.
(EXAMPLE : Based on the latest information available to us today, a typical
Sandy Springs single-family frame residence, with a market value of $20, 000 and
located on a 100-foot lot, would cost its owner only about $38. 00 more annually, or
about $3. 00 per month, if located inside the City of Atlanta. Total taxes and service
charges on this home would be $64. 00 higher but fire insurance rates about $26. 00
lower.)
7. The primary benefit to the city from addition of the area would be realized
not in tax dollars , but in the contributions of the Sandy Springs citizens to the growth
and progress of the city by their active participation in city affairs.
It is apparent to this Board that the inclusion of Sandy Springs as a part of the
City of Atlanta would be of mutual benefit to the residents of Sandy Springs and the city.
Although the change would be of significant cost to the city through the necessity of
improved services to the area, the Board feels that this is a responsibility which the
city should be willing to undertake.
Therefore, the Board of Directors recommends that the residents of Sa~dy
Springs be given the opportunity, in a referendum during 1966, to express their
preference on whether their area should become a part of the City of Atlanta. This
referendum should be duly called by legislation introduced by the Fulton County
delegation to the Georgia General Assembly.
The Board further strongly recommends that residents of Sandy Springs give
this matter attentive thought, considering all aspects of the question, including those
set out above, and that they accept the opportunity to join the City of Atlanta. This
Boar d is firmly of the opinion thll.t undue delay in giving this matter thorough and
complete consideration would be detrimental to the best interest of both the Sandy
Springs area and the City of Atlanta .

MEMORANDUM
To:
Dan. Sweat, Jr.
From:
George Berry
Subject:
Status of Sale of Shopping Center Site by Atlanta Housing
Authority to Model Neighborhood, Inc.
At your request, I have talked with Philip Vrooman, Disposition Officer of the
Atlanta Housing Authority for a rundown on the status of this transaction.
It seems that this is considered a very unusual transaction as far as the
Housing Authority is concerned. The initial proposition was made without
the benefit of a written proposal and after the proposed sale had been
announced publicly, the Housing Authority personnel assisted the Model
Neighborhood, Inc. in preparing a proposal that would satisfy the requirements of the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The written
proposal is dated May 22, 1968. It proposes to buy the two parcels involved
for a total of $216,500.00. When the sale was first proposed, Model Neighborhood, Inc. paid over to the Housing Authority $10,800.00. These funds were
borr<:>wed from the Trust Company of Georgia and require some sort of quarterly
payment. We understand that these payments are being met from the proceeds
of the $6,000.00 granted to the organization through EDA in 1968.
The proposal conditioned the sale of the property on Model Neighborhood, Inc.
being able to secure a loan for the balance which in turn necessitates securing
commitments from a sufficient number of tenants to make the venture economically feasible. Mr. Vrooman states that there have been many conferences
with Mr . Moody over the past year in an attempt to assist his organization in
meeting this condition but, while Mr. Moody and his associates have app eare d
confident and · determined, these commitments have not been obtained as yet.
�July 1, 1969
Memo to Dan Sweat, Jr.
Page Two
The written proposal that was drawn up for this proposed sale does not have
a time period written in which places any time limit on when this commitment
must be met. Further, the way Mr. Vrooman interprets the document, the
$10,800.00 is refundable if Model Neighborhood, Inc. does not consumate
the sale. As a matte:i; of fact, there seems to be some confusion at the
Housing Authority as to what the $10,800.00 is because the Authority has
never deposited the check even though it was received a year ago.
Mr. Vrooman states that at the last conference that was held with Mr. Moody
a few weeks ago, he stated that it looked like it would be about six (6) months
before the transaction could be consumated.
Very truly yours,
Ge0rge Berry

Ho1;.orable Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor of Atlanta
Atlanta, Georgia 30303
IN REPL Y R ErE R TO :
JUN 1 1 1969
Dear Hayor Allen:
In his press conference of April 28, 1969, _~ecr etary Romney
made the following statement:
·I
"The 10% population restriction on the size of the
target neighborhoods will be dropped . . . . [T]his
0 '
• • . does not mean that the program will be ex pand ed
city wide within each city.
Its purpose will rema in
tha t of focusing r esources on pa rti~ula rly pe e r a n~
blighted neighborhoods, but local officials will be
given greater latitude in drawing progr am boundaries
that conform to local conditions. "
The Secretary's comments have been given widely differing interpretations in newspapers and periodicals around the country . In
order to avoid any confusion I would like to ex pand a bit on the
Secretary's remarks.
Cities are certainly not required to ex pand their model ne i ghborhood boundaries. They will be permitted to do so in order to
remove arbit r ary geographic limit a tions that pr event logi cal and
effective program dev e lopment. For exampl e , in one city a sma ll
geographic area was eliminated from the model ne i ghborhood in
order to meet the popula tion limit a tion. This area i s contiguous
to the model neighborhood, is a bli ghted area, with ess e ntially
the same kind of population mix a s the model n eighbor hood , a nd contains onl y a few thousand residents . Ex pans ion to includ e t his
contiguous area would not materially aff ect the ca pa city of t his
city to mount a progr am tha t will have subs tantia l impa c t on the
neighbo rhood pr oblems. This r epresents an ar tif icia l constrain t
wh ich may be r emov ed, i f the c i t y seeks to init ia t e such a c ha nge ,
�2
Any addition to the model neighborhood must still meet all
statutory requirements. The additional area must be a
blighted one. The program for the expanded area must meet
all the statutory criteria, including the requirement that
the program achieve a substantial impact on the neighborhood's
problems.
No additional supplemental funds will be available for the
expanded areas. For most first round cities, this means that
new projects or extended projects in the new areas would depend
on funds from . o_ther than Hodel Cities supplemental grant funds.
All cities may find it difficult to assure the program impact
required by the statute if the model neighborhood is greatly
expanded unless substantial additional resources are available.
In most situations, however, as CDA's develop their capabilities
to plan, coordinate, and evaluate the program in their first
target area, much benefit could be derived from expanding these
activities of the CDA to those resources and programs presently
going into poverty areas of the city other than the present
model neighborhood.
This expanding role of the CDA as the program continues would
enable the cities to be in a position to better utilize additional
resources in the futur e a s they may become ava ilable .
Any request for area expansion should set forth the reas ons the refore and demonstrate that the city has the capa city to administer
the program in the expa nded a reas in accordance with the for egoing
considerations.
Very truly yours,
Floyd H. Hyde

Introductory rema~ks by Mayor Allen opened the meeting. He commented
on the land area, population density, urban services, special problems and other
factors involved in the possible inclusion of the three areas of Sandy Springs -- A,
B, and C -- as part of the city. He cited the lower density of popula tion in Areas B
and C and said extending certain services to Area C would be particularly expensive
to the city.
Sandy Springs r epresentatives expre ssed the unanimous feeling that the
entire area defined as Sandy Springs should be included in any annexation effort if it
is to b e succe ssful . Inclusion of a ny less would b e short-sighted, they said, for
s everal reasons :
1. About 7 5 per cent of the ar ea not now develop ed is alr eady planned
fo r development, and more planning is being done all the time .
2. Population is increasing in Areas B and C at a r ate equal to, or ahead
of, Area A . Some of the fine st new home s a r e being built in Areas B and C .
3. The Chattahoochee River , whic h bounds Sandy Spr ings on the west and
north, would s erve a s a natural boundary and better t han an a rbitrar y line set on
another basis .
4 . Psychol ogically, taking part of the area and l eaving the rest outside
the city would create a "no-man ' s l and" and possibly would damage the community
closeness presently felt by Sandy Springs resi dents . It was b r ought out that Sandy
Springs residents would feel l e s s harmonious wit h Roswell , whe r e some Sandy
Springs children would go to school if only part of the a r ea joined t he city .
Di s cus s ion of taxes and s ervic e charge s fo llowed . Mr. Farris sugge sted
that the applicable information on several hundred homes be run through computer
machine s to arrive at the exact taxes and service charges for t hese homes if lo cated

in Sandy Springs or if located inside the city limits. He said enough representative
examples should be prepared that any Sandy Springs resident could find a case closely
similar to his own situation. The idea met enthusiastic approval, and Mr. Farris
said he would proceed with it.
Mr. Ivey brought up a num.ber of points of interest or concern to Sandy
Springs residents, which he said were the main issues about which citizens had
approached him. Eaph point was discussed in turn, as follows:
-- Tax assessors board -- Could Sandy Springs be offered a representative
on the Joint City-County Board of Tax Assessors?
It was agreed that the area, iI a part of the city, would actually be better
represented on the board, since the board presently has two members from the city
and one from the county. Mayor Allen said he didn't think it feasible or possible to
name a new member from a specific area.
-- Library board:- If Sandy Springs joined the city as a new ward, would
the area automatically g~t a representative on the Library Board?
If a new ward, this would be automatic for one library board member , one
school board member and two aldermen. Mayor Allen pointed out, though, that Sandy
Springs has only about 24, 000 residents, whereas some 500, 000 people make up the
present eight city wards, an average of about 62, 000 per ward. He said some ward
realignment probably would be necessary . Mr. Matthews said a proposed annexation
act already drawn, at the request of Rep. -ele ct Rodney Cook, defines Sandy Springs
as a new ward and specifically calls for a special election to name two aldermen and
one school board member for the ward, to be voted on only by the residents of the
area concerned.
-- Zoning and lic enses : What would be the effect of the transition to city
zoning requirements, and could Sandy Springs be assured representation on the Joint
Zoning Board ?
(
Mayor Allen said the city would carry out a "status quo" position; that

approved or business licenses already issued. A business license in effect would
continue and would come up for renewal as usual, unless the licensee should lose
the privilege for cause. Mr. Farris said naming an alderman from a specific area
to the Aldermanic Zoning Committee is not done. It was agreed, though, that
possibly an understanding could be reached about the appointment of a Sandy Springs
resident to the Joint Zoning Board .
-- Police protection and precinct stations: Would the citjr assure Sandy
Springs of a precinct station?
Mr. Farris said two·-way radio communications and other modern facilities
are doing away with the precinct station concept instead of creating new stations . It
�..
Page 3
Minutes of Meeting on Sandy Springs,

was brought out that Sandy Springs people seem to think a precinct station would
increase their protection, and it was agreed that the question is one which should
be answered in publicity about the proposed referendum. About six hours of the
24, there are no policemen on duty in Sandy Springs under present arrangements,
the mayor was told. Mayor Allen commented on the overall need for additional
police protection throughout the city. The city presently has about 1. 5 policemen
for every 1, 000 population, he said, and the rest of the metropolitan area has a
much lower ratio.
-- Fire protection: What would happen when Sandy Springs joined the
city in the way of ne w fire stations, etc. ?
Mayor Allen said the Southeastern Underwriters would conduct a survey
to determine the needs in Sandy Springs, and their recommendations would have to
be followed for Atlanta to maintain its Class III rating. Sandy Springs presently has
a Class VI rating. Preliminary investigation by the city shows the need for three new
fire stations, one of which would replace the existing station, Mayor Allen said.
However, the survey by the Southeastern Underwriters would be controlling . He
a ssured Sandy Springs repre s entatives that the city would not r isk loss of its Class
III rating.
·'
-- School transportation: Sandy Springs would gain kindergartens in its
public schools, but how many school children would lose their school bus transportation?
Mr. Farris com m ented that it i s apparent the city and county school systems
will be consolidated. But he said the Atlanta Transit System could work out a program
of bus t ransportation for the students affected, t he same as the company conduct s for
the City of Atlanta system . Pupils pay to ride these buses .
-- Teacher benefits : Sandy Springs teachers a r e wondering where they
would stand on their retirement programs, etc., if annexation occurs.
Mr . Landers s aid the Pl an of Impr ovement spells out b eyond a doubt t hat
benefits , including r etirem ent, follow an employee from one system to a nother . It
was agreed, however , tha t this que s tion should be a ns wered for the te acher s and that
Mr. A. D. Jones of the local s chool teacher s organization would be the logi cal man to
handle that issue.
-- School desegregation: Is any appreciabl e school desegregation likely
to fo llow annexation?
About 30 Negro c hildren from Sandy Springs are presently being transported
to one school, and there has been no desegregation. All the children live in a rundown
s e ction, and most probably would attend the Guy Webb Elementary School, if desegregation
occur red.
Mayor Allen said the city system has faced up to its responsibilities and
that its policies, already in practice , would be continued throughout the city system.
�Page 4
Minutes of Meeting on Sandy Springs
January 4, 1966
He said he hoped the matter would not be an issue, but that if it became one, it
would be met forthrightly.
-- Sewerage, water and garbage: Sewer service, in particular, is
limited at present. Is there any way those residents without sewers, and where
no .sewers are immediately planned, could be relieved of sewer charges? What
would happen with water service and sanitation service?
Mayor Al.len said there would definitely be no sewer charges for anyone
not using sewers, and there would be none until the service is used. He and Mr.
Farris explained the city's revolving fund for sewers, which is used to construct
sewers and then replenished by assessments on residents who tap on to the line.
Those who don't tap on don't pay a dime.
residents.
Water charges (minimum bill) would be cut in half for Sandy Springs
This would be mostly a "plus" factor favoring the residents.
Garbage pickup schedules would be improved, rubbish collections added
and sanitation charge s reduced. It was agreed that the schedule of pickups should
be stressed in publicity and particulars spelled out for the homeowner and the
commercial user.
-- Streets, sidewalks and street lights: What changes would occur in
these areas, particularly sidewalks near schools?
Property owners can petition for sidewalks and be assessed by front
footage , the Mayor and Mr. Landers explained, but the city can move in without
petition to construct sidewalks and assess property owners, if necessary for safety.
The city builds sidewalks in front of schools at city expense.
To meet city standards, about 1, 350 lights would be needed on arterial
streets and about 2, 800 in residential neighborhoods, Mayor Allen said. Some
$9, 000 annually is being spent in Sandy Springs now for street lighting; addition
of those improvements would jump the cost to about $181, 000 annually after five
years .
-- Liquor stores: Sandy Springs presently has only three liquor store s,
the maximum possible under county requirements . What would happen because of
the difference in county and city requirements ?
Mayor Allen said this is a point which should be met with purely business
arguments. After some discussion, it was agreed this probably would not be a serious
issue in the referendum.
The Mayor asked Mr. Driskell to serve as temporary secretary of the
group and to work with Mr. Farris in compiling memoranda on (a) all available data
regarding the boundary question and (b) answers to all questions brought up at this
meeting, plus others that arise.

Mayor Allen said he did not want to rush into the boundary question until
further study. He said he didn 1 t know whether he could, in good conscience, commit
the city to the financial burden attached to including the entire area and requested
several days to consider the matter.
After further brief discussion, the meeting was adjourned.

Sandy Springs Annexation
1.
Attached is a brief discussion of facilities and services, ex~sting
and needed if the Sandy Springs area is-\;8:nnexed as well: as sane other
pertinent infoqnation. Land Use is ·indicated on the map of North
Fulton County. Area · "A" is 1965 data; "B" and "C" are 1961 data.
2.
Sandy Springs is primarily residential area of low density development
where many Urban services are now provided by the City of Atlanta
under contract with Fulton County. The City performs these services
on a non-profit basis with the exception of water revenues.
3.
On a dollar and cents basis; it will cost Atlanta considerable money
to annex Sandy Springs. The existing level of services will have to
be improved, and if this area beco·mes a part of the City wate ,: rates
will have to be reduced, resulting in a substantial loss of r~venue.
As a general rule, taxes on residential properties are not adequate
to offset the cost of Urban services performed for them.
4.
Annexation of Sandy Springs would give Atlanta an elongated shape,
roughly similar to that of Fulton County, stretching nineteen miles
from the City Hall to Roswell on the north and ten miles to bt!yond
Ben Hill in the Southwest. If Fulton County industrial area and
the great sout~1est corporation properties are ever taken in t he
City, the Southwest distance becomes fourteen miles. These d i stances and the shape will present problems in administration , access,
and communication. Ideally a circular shape of eight to ten u iles
would be much more economical for the traxpayer and easier to ~dminister • . An Atlanta shaped like this would have at least 200, 000 more
people and eighty square miles more territory, most . of which would be
already densely developed with a variety of land uses which wo uld
complement .and support a desirable level of Urban ser vices ancl
fa ci lities .

Sanitary Service - Mr. Roy Wood - Sanitary Department
Existing Service Garbage collection .is presently performed by the City under contract
with the County for residence in the area north to Aber~athy Road.
This area is designated as a sanitary district and homeowners are
taxed by Fulton County for this service.
Businesses are charged
on a sliding scale up to $1,000 for collection.
Needs If the area is annexed, some improvement would be necessary over
the present level of sanitary service.
A sanitary landfill andl e. bulldozer would
have to be acquired and a bulldozer operator provided.
There would
be two additional garbage trucks needed with crews if the area
north of Dalryrne Road (Area Band C) is included.
To serve Area A
two street sweepers and six trash trucks with crews will be ne eded.
Areas Band C will require one sweeper and three trash trucks .
An additional animal truck will be needed in the event of any annexa-~
t ion in the area.

Sewer Division, Construction Department - Bob Morriss
Existing Facilities Area A The basic system of trunks and treatment plants are in existence
as this area is served within the Nancy Creek drainage ba sin.
Area B Developed areas are served by the Marsh Creek treatment plant
and trunk.
Undeveloped areas presently do not have sewers
or treatment available.
Area C Consists of many small drainage basins of 500 acres or l ess.
Served only by septic tanks.
Needed Facilities Area A The problem here is the development of laterals and outfalls,
however, very little difficulty or excessive expense is a nticipated in the long run.
I
Area B For the developed areas, the need for outfalls and laterals
exists to some extent but does not present a major difficulty.
No treatment facilities are available at present for undeveloped
areas, however, it is anticipated that when necessary sewage

could be pumped to a Fulton County plant on the north side
of the Chattahoochee River.
Area C The treatment of sewage in this area presents nothing bu t
problems due to the rough topography. · The only probable
solution is a · low density of development with septic tanks.
General Comment The annexation of Areas A and B would facilitate a comprehensive

�NEWS RELEASE
from the ATLANTA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
TELEPHONE:
521-0845
FOR RELEASE 4 :00 P . M. SATURDAY
The Atlanta Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors Saturday declared
its support of an ex ension of the Atlanta city limit s to include all or part of the
North Fulton County area of Sandy Springs .
In a r esolution setting out its position, the Board said it is apparent that the
inclusion of Sandy Spr ings as par t of the city would be of mutual benefit to that
community and t he City of Atlanta.
The Board said such a move should be based on a favorable expression on
the par t of the residents involved . It recommended that the residents of Sandy
Springs be given t he oppor t unity in a refer endum during 1966 to express their
preference on whe her t heir area should become part of the city.
The Boa r d rs esolution was announced by Pollard Turman, outgo_ing president
of t he Atlanta Chamber.
The Chambe r Board urged that Sandy Spr ings citizens consider all aspects
of the question, par icula r ly t he advantages to be gained by residents of the area,
a nd tha t they accep he oppor tunity to join the city . "Undue delay in giving this
matter borough and complete consideration would be detrimental to the best
interest of bot h h e Sandy Springs area and the City of Atlanta," the Board added.
Cited in t he resolution as a dvantages to Sa ndy Springs residents by joining
the city were a n impr oved l evel of ur ban services , such as sewers , sanitation
services , a nd fir e pr otection; a ddition of kinder gartens to the public schools;
parks and r ecr eat iona l facilities , and others . ·
Additionally , t he Board sa id, Sandy Springs re sidents would be able to
participate in t he affair s of the city , around which m a ny of their activities and
int erests a r e center e d, by voting on officials and programs undertaken by the
city .
The actual increase in cost to residents for impr oved services and other
a dvantages would be moder a te , the Boa rd said. Although the ad valorem taxes
on homes would be higher , this would be partially offset by reduced service
charges and lower fi r e insurance rates , once fir e p r otection facilities had been
upgraded to City of Atla nta s tandards .
Ba sed on t he la test a vailable information, the Boar d found that the owner
of a typi cal s ingle --fami y frame residence , with a value of $20 , 000 and located
on a 100- foo t lot , would pa y only a.bout $38 . 00 mor e annually . Taxes a nd service
c ha r ge s would be about $64 " 00 highe r but fi r e insur ance r ates some $26 . 0 0 lower .
December 31 1965
�A RESOLUTION
ATLANTA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The Atlanta Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors has long been vitally
concer ned with the orderly and intelligent growth of the City of Atlanta, recognizing
full well the city 's role and responsibilities as the heart of a great and growing metropolitan area . The Board recognizes furt her that the growth and progress of the entire
five-county area have been, and will be in the future, directly related to the wellbeing and continued healthy growth of the city itself.
The needs of the city and of the surrounding metropolitan area -- economic,
educational , cultural, recreational and others -- have been given attentive study by
the Atlanta Chamber, and its utmost efforts have been devoted to insuring that those
needs are met to the benefit and best possible advantage of all citizens.
As with other needs and problems, the Atlanta Chamber has studied and weighed
carefully the benefits inherent in the orderly extension of the city's boundaries to
include as part of the city certain areas adjacent to the present boundaries, and where
a substantial number of citizens already have expressed a desire for the opportunity
to become part of the city .
More specifically, the Atlanta Chamber has studied the feasibility of extending
t he city's boundaries , provided there is a favorable expression on the part of the
r esidents involved, to include some portion or all of the unincorporated area of
North Fulton County known as Sandy Springs.
The findings of the Board of Directors on this matter are as follows:
1. Sandy Springs is an area of some forty square miles and is primarily of
r esidential development, where some 24, 000 citizens reside . A large portion of these
citizens earn their livelihood at jobs within the city of Atlanta, depend on the city for
many of their urban services, and avail themselves of city facilities and other advantages offered by their proximity to a metropolitan center.
2 . In spite of their contributions in other ways to the progress of the city and
t heir dependence on the city for many things, the residents of Sandy Springs are
unable to participate in the affairs of the city by helping to select city officials or
by voting on programs undertaken by the city, around which most of their activities
and interests are centered.
3. The urban services provided to the residents of Sandy Springs, rendered for
the most part by t he City of Atlanta on a contract basis, are not of the same high
level as similar services rendered to residents of the corporate city. Even so, some
of t hese services of necessity cost more for the Sandy Springs resident than a resident
of t he City of Atlanta . The City o.f Atlanta recefves no ad valorem taxes from Sandy
Spr ings r esidents , or from any other residents outside present city boundaries.
�- 2 -
4. Inclusion of any portion, or the entire area of Sandy Springs as part of
the city would result in considerable initial expense to the city because of the necessity
of improving the existing level of services to the area, particularly in the extension of
sewer service to some areas and in the upgrading of fire protection and sanitation
service . A substantial loss of revenue would be incurred by the city because of a
subsequent reduction in water rates to these residents. The city's collections of .a d
valorem taxes within the area would not be nearly adequate to offset the increased
costs of providing improved urban services.
5. In addition to improved urban services, Sandy Springs residents would realize
other benefits, such as the addition of kindergartens to their schools, parks and recreational facilities, and others.
6. The actual increase in cost to Sandy Springs residents for these improved
services would be moderate. A higher rate of ad valorem taxes would be partly offset
by reduced service charges, and further offset by a reduction in fire insurance rates,
once the fire protection facilities of the area had been upgraded to the standards of the
City of Atlanta.
(EXAMPLE : Based on the latest information available to us today, a typical
Sandy Springs single-family frame residence, with a market value of $20, 000 and
located on a 100-foot lot, would cost its owner only about $38. 00 more annually, or
about $3. 00 per month, if located inside the City of Atlanta. Total taxes and service
charges on this home would be $64. 00 higher but fire insurance rates about $26. 00
lower.)
7. The primary benefit to the city from addition of the area would be realized
not in tax dollars , but in the contributions of the Sandy Springs citizens to the growth
and progress of the city by their active participation in city affairs.
It is apparent to this Board that the inclusion of Sandy Springs as a part of the
City of Atlanta would be of mutual benefit to the residents of Sandy Springs and the city.
Although the change would be of significant cost to the city through the necessity of
improved services to the area, the Board feels that this is a responsibility which the
city should be willing to undertake.
Therefore, the Board of Directors recommends that the residents of Sa~dy
Springs be given the opportunity, in a referendum during 1966, to express their
preference on whether their area should become a part of the City of Atlanta. This
referendum should be duly called by legislation introduced by the Fulton County
delegation to the Georgia General Assembly.
The Board further strongly recommends that residents of Sandy Springs give
this matter attentive thought, considering all aspects of the question, including those
set out above, and that they accept the opportunity to join the City of Atlanta. This
Boar d is firmly of the opinion thll.t undue delay in giving this matter thorough and
complete consideration would be detrimental to the best interest of both the Sandy
Springs area and the City of Atlanta .

MEMORANDUM
To:
Dan. Sweat, Jr.
From:
George Berry
Subject:
Status of Sale of Shopping Center Site by Atlanta Housing
Authority to Model Neighborhood, Inc.
At your request, I have talked with Philip Vrooman, Disposition Officer of the
Atlanta Housing Authority for a rundown on the status of this transaction.
It seems that this is considered a very unusual transaction as far as the
Housing Authority is concerned. The initial proposition was made without
the benefit of a written proposal and after the proposed sale had been
announced publicly, the Housing Authority personnel assisted the Model
Neighborhood, Inc. in preparing a proposal that would satisfy the requirements of the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The written
proposal is dated May 22, 1968. It proposes to buy the two parcels involved
for a total of $216,500.00. When the sale was first proposed, Model Neighborhood, Inc. paid over to the Housing Authority $10,800.00. These funds were
borr<:>wed from the Trust Company of Georgia and require some sort of quarterly
payment. We understand that these payments are being met from the proceeds
of the $6,000.00 granted to the organization through EDA in 1968.
The proposal conditioned the sale of the property on Model Neighborhood, Inc.
being able to secure a loan for the balance which in turn necessitates securing
commitments from a sufficient number of tenants to make the venture economically feasible. Mr. Vrooman states that there have been many conferences
with Mr . Moody over the past year in an attempt to assist his organization in
meeting this condition but, while Mr. Moody and his associates have app eare d
confident and · determined, these commitments have not been obtained as yet.
�July 1, 1969
Memo to Dan Sweat, Jr.
Page Two
The written proposal that was drawn up for this proposed sale does not have
a time period written in which places any time limit on when this commitment
must be met. Further, the way Mr. Vrooman interprets the document, the
$10,800.00 is refundable if Model Neighborhood, Inc. does not consumate
the sale. As a matte:i; of fact, there seems to be some confusion at the
Housing Authority as to what the $10,800.00 is because the Authority has
never deposited the check even though it was received a year ago.
Mr. Vrooman states that at the last conference that was held with Mr. Moody
a few weeks ago, he stated that it looked like it would be about six (6) months
before the transaction could be consumated.
Very truly yours,
Ge0rge Berry

"The 10% population restriction on the size of the
target neighborhoods will be dropped . . . . [T]his
0 '
• • . does not mean that the program will be ex pand ed
city wide within each city.
Its purpose will rema in
tha t of focusing r esources on pa rti~ula rly pe e r a n~
blighted neighborhoods, but local officials will be
given greater latitude in drawing progr am boundaries
that conform to local conditions. "
The Secretary's comments have been given widely differing interpretations in newspapers and periodicals around the country . In
order to avoid any confusion I would like to ex pand a bit on the
Secretary's remarks.
Cities are certainly not required to ex pand their model ne i ghborhood boundaries. They will be permitted to do so in order to
remove arbit r ary geographic limit a tions that pr event logi cal and
effective program dev e lopment. For exampl e , in one city a sma ll
geographic area was eliminated from the model ne i ghborhood in
order to meet the popula tion limit a tion. This area i s contiguous
to the model neighborhood, is a bli ghted area, with ess e ntially
the same kind of population mix a s the model n eighbor hood , a nd contains onl y a few thousand residents . Ex pans ion to includ e t his
contiguous area would not materially aff ect the ca pa city of t his
city to mount a progr am tha t will have subs tantia l impa c t on the
neighbo rhood pr oblems. This r epresents an ar tif icia l constrain t
wh ich may be r emov ed, i f the c i t y seeks to init ia t e such a c ha nge ,
�2
Any addition to the model neighborhood must still meet all
statutory requirements. The additional area must be a
blighted one. The program for the expanded area must meet
all the statutory criteria, including the requirement that
the program achieve a substantial impact on the neighborhood's
problems.
No additional supplemental funds will be available for the
expanded areas. For most first round cities, this means that
new projects or extended projects in the new areas would depend
on funds from . o_ther than Hodel Cities supplemental grant funds.
All cities may find it difficult to assure the program impact
required by the statute if the model neighborhood is greatly
expanded unless substantial additional resources are available.
In most situations, however, as CDA's develop their capabilities
to plan, coordinate, and evaluate the program in their first
target area, much benefit could be derived from expanding these
activities of the CDA to those resources and programs presently
going into poverty areas of the city other than the present
model neighborhood.
This expanding role of the CDA as the program continues would
enable the cities to be in a position to better utilize additional
resources in the futur e a s they may become ava ilable .
Any request for area expansion should set forth the reas ons the refore and demonstrate that the city has the capa city to administer
the program in the expa nded a reas in accordance with the for egoing
considerations.
Very truly yours,
Floyd H. Hyde

INCREASED REPRESENTATION
City of Atlanta officials have mad e much of the fact
that Sandy Springs area resid ent s could expect to be a new ninth
ward, and have two Aldermen olecl ed to represent them.
The
subject tha t no one within th e Ci ty of Atlanta has brought up is
contained on page 3114, Georr; ia Laws 1951, in the so-called Plan
of tmprovement.
It reads as follows:
'~he mayor and general council shall have power to make
change s in ward lines whe never it is deemed advisable
to contract or ext end th em for the benefit of the
citi z ens thereof, provilled that the ward line s, when
rearranged, shall not b l! more than nine wards."
The day aft er e l t!Cti on of Aldermen from the n ew nin t h
war d, the City of Atl a nt a 's mayor and general council could,
BY LAW, do away with exclusiv e representation fr om .the Sandy
Springs ar ea .

Lait'® HAVE ‘THR FACTS |
ANNEXATION . IN| WOVEN 9 ANI'TATION
Senate Bill 107, JU5L, 1a an act to eacablinh a
mathod for providing garbage disposal systems In the
unincorporated portion of Fulton County; to authorLuve the
Commissioners of Fulton County to call on the Gity of Atlanta
to furnish facilities for the collection and disposal of
garbage and refuse, the cleaning of streets and roads and related
services in unincorporated areas of said county; to require said
city to furnish said county with an estimate of the cost thereof
and provide such services at cost; to prohibit Fulton County from
providing such services except through the City; ,..,to provide
for defraying the cost of such services by a tax or assessment
on property or property owners in garbage disposal districts,.,"'
The City of Atlanta is required by law to furnish
garbage collection, street cleaning services, and related
services, AT COST. The capital letters are ours, The statemant,
though, is the law.
Sanitation costs would not be reduced by annexation
enough to make it worth sharpening a pencil to figure, Not only
do Sandy Springs residents gat two garbage collections a week,
but Fulton County has now installed a service whereby eight
collection stations have been located near concentrations of
homes in the area. This is an even better service than the Oity
provides, because area residents do not have to drive around
piles of leaves and trash such as litter the city streets until
sanitation trucks finally make their rounds. Just a few blocks
in any direction will find the eight cubic yard containers,
which will hold everything from raw garbage to cardboard boxes,
They are located as follows; ‘
Mt. Vernon Highway at Dupree Drive :
Hammond Drive at Glenridge Drive
Spalding Drive at Roberts Drive
Northside Drive at West Garmon Road
Powers Ferry Road at Mt. Paran Road
Sandy Springs Circle at Johnson Ferry Road
Roswell Road at Dalrymple Road
Roswell Road at Hightower Trail
These refuse containers have been installed out of
necessity in spite of the 1952 Plan of inprovenetit prohibition
on Fulton County's engaging in the collection and disposal of
garbage and refuse,
Section 11, Senédta Bill 105, Georgia laws 1951,
states that the authority of Fulton County to eétablish and
maintain water, sewer and fire prevention systema ip “hereby
repealed,"
ANNEXATION ;3 SEWAGE
The Public Administration Service report states on
page 37, "Most of Atlanta's treatment plants, which, as noted
earlier, serve a much larger area than just the City, provide
only primary treatment~-- which removes only 30-35 percent of
the pollutant material before the sewage is discharged back into
streams."
The "PETITION AND PAY" plan is the only way Sandy
Springs would ever get sewer service,
City sewer service would not automatically be
extended to all homes as a result of annexation. There are many
areas within the city limits of Atlanta which do not have sewer
service.
New sewer service would cost, as set by law, $3.50
per front foot. There would be a connection fee of $80 to $120,
This means it would cost app¥oximately $420 to install sewer lines
down the average R-2A 120 foot lot,
Fulton county has plans to improve the sewer grid, as
well as does the City of Atlanta -- witness those homes in Sandy
Springs already on sewers. This was obtained under Fulton County
Government, WITHOUT "PETITION AND PAY''.
ANNEXATION ir4 INCREASED REPRESENTATION
City of Atlanta officials have made much of the fact
that Sandy Springs area residents could expect to be a new ninth
ward, and have two Aldermen elected to represent them, The
subject that no one within the City of Atlanta has brought up is
contained on page 3114, Georgia Laws 1951, in the so-called Plan
of Improvement. It reads as follows:
"The mayor and general council shall have power to make -
changes in ward lines whenever it is deemed advisable
to contract or extend them for the benefit of the
citizens thereof, provided that the ward lines, when
rearranged, shall not be more than nine wards."
The day after election of Aldermen from the new ninth
ward, the City of Atlanta's mayor and general council could,
BY LAW, do away with exclusive representation from the Sandy
Springs area.
ANNEXATION #5 PROPERTY TAX
The latest mailing from the Atlanta Team for Tomorrow
repeats the old statement "taxes would be higher, but the increase
would be largely offset...."' and gives an example of a tax
increase of $100.12 on an existing $43,000 home in the area. Now,
what this i.cest bit of figuring DOESN'T DO is to repeat the
statement made in their March 14th release, and we quote,
"Furthermore, Buckhead residents found that property values
wichin the city went up automatically" (after annexation). We
say this statement probably is true, because only by re-valuing
(or re-assessing, if you will!) a house can taxes be drastically
increased. We are sure that such increase will be just as
AUTOMATIC for residents of Sandy Springs, should the area be
annexed, as it was for Buckhead,
In addition, every set of figures we've seen keeps
DEDUCTING for fire taxes, garbage services, etc. Well, you can
bu lleve it or not, but that same amount of money is still going
out PLUS that little increase they just happen to mention.
Property taxes are assessed, by the way, pursuant
to the 1952 Plan of Improvement, by a joint City-Fulton County
board. "Operations are conducted at and from the Fulton County
Administration Building. The Tax Assessment Department is
headed by a three-member Atlanta-Fulton County Joint Board of
Assessors....Except for its appointment, the Joint Board has
little responsibility to either the City or County Government''*
*From the Public Administration Service Report.
AND DID YOU KNOW FULTON COUNTY COLLECTS ATLANTA'S
CITY TAXES FOR THEM? Check the Plan of Improvement. The law,
requires Fuiton County not only to collect Atlanta's taxes, but
to prepare tax bills and provide office space, as well.
ANNEXATION #6 FIRE PROTECTION
Much has been made of the fact that the City of
Atlanta furnishes fire protection to Fulton County residents of
the unincorporated area. Under the 1952 Plan of Improvement the
Fulton County Commissioners were forbidden BY LAW to maintain
either a fire department or furnish fire prevention facilities
except UNDER CONTRACT WITH THE CITY OF ATLANTA, or another
municipality.
Senate Bill No. 105 of the plan of Improvement was
written "to authorize the commissioners of said county to enter
into contracts with one or more municipalities therein for a
fire prevention system in any unincorporated area of said county
or to call on the City of Atlanta to furnish the same at ACTUAL
COST as long as payment is made therefor; .... to prohibit
Fulton County from maintaining fire prevention systems...."
So you see, the City only can charge Fulton County
residents of the Unincorporated area for the ACTUAL COST of fire
protection, and the County CANNOT have a fire department. Since
Sandy Springs is developing a business area of its own, these
businesses should be able to contribute to lowering the cost of
fire protection to area residents. Atlanta maintains that its
downtown businesses help defray the cost of fire insurance for
jomeowners. We maintain this would be true in the Sandy
Springs area, without incurring an indebtedness of an operation
which is inefficient and poorly edasnteaks and has little
attraction for qualified personnel.
The Survey Report of the Public Administration
Service says about Atlanta's fire protection, "Manning of the
department is short of American Insurance Association standards...
Qualified recruits are increasingly hard to attract and
resignations are inoveaettie at an alarming rate".
In addition, the comment was made in this report,
"Its lowest rating (Atlanta's) in the most recent review by the
Board (in October, 1964) was in fire prevention."
To get down to the hard facts of fire protection --
Sandy Springs will never get any more fire protection than Sandy
Springs can pay for. Atlanta reportedly cannot keep enough men
on the job now to function efficiently.
Buildings over two stories in height were built
without conforming to zoning in existence when the Sandy Springs
fire classification was obtained. Inadequate fire protection is
the fault of the joint city-county zoning board, which allowed
structures not provided for in the fire prevention program. We
waintain these buildings should pay an increased fire tax to
provide for special protection NEEDED BY THEM because they were
in apparent violation of existing specifications.
ANNEXATION #7 POLICING
Under the 1952 Plan of Improvement, the unincorporated
ections of Fulton County MUST receive police protection from the
ta
City of Atianta.
In Sandy Springs, because of the limited population,
the police have been doing a more than adequate job. Women have
been safe going to shopping centers. The incidence of rape Bice
within the City of Atlanta is so high that it appears their 1.5
man per thousand population needs to be 2.5 men per thousand,
while the 1 per thousand in the Sandy Springs area seems to be
establishing a fine record for prevention of crime of this type.
Theft and housebreaking, and the more serious crimes
of violence and murder, tite almost seemed to confine themselves
to the City limits.
I€ handling offenses in the unincorporated area
through the Fulton County Criminal Court continues to hold crime
at the petty low level now maintained in Sandy Springs, we do not
feel it would be wise to swap fon City justices, city ordinances
o£ Atlanta, and city crime.
ANNEXATION iro PAVING AND LIGHTS
Streets, sidewalks, street lights and traffic lights
almost all come under the "PETITION AND PAY' plan. Exception
probably is in the traffic light area, and of the eight lights
recommended as being needed, Fulton County already has taken
note. Plans already are under way for installation of some of
chase lights.
The recommended street lights definitely will be on
a petition basis.
Atlanta could find only THREE MAJOR STREETS IN SANDY
SPRINGS BELOW STANDARD. We say this is remarkable in an Sone
roughly one-third the size of the City of Atlanta. Extension of
these figures SHOULD MEAN that Atlanta only has nine sub-standard
major streets. Is that so? By the way--paving comes under the
"PETITION AND PAY" plan in the. City of Atlanta.
To get a street paved in front of the average R-2A
lot would cost THE HOMEOWNER between $726 and $900, should he Live
in Atlanta. If he wants a sidewalk, it will cost about $192 more.
"PETITION AND PAY" again, except where increases in public safety
needs allow the city to lay a sidewalk without petition and
charge owners on a front-foot basis.
ANNEXATION #9 INCOME TAXES
City taxes are deductible items on income taxes,
- 10 =
4nyone who has vex Hgunea an income tax knows just
how much credit you will get on "Income Taxes" for the amount of
city taxes paid. And you still have to pay the city taxes!
Will the dedustien you get balance the tax you will
have to pay? eyed has yet! Also, we point out deduction does
not apply if short form return is used; only when long form 1040
is used, listing all deductions, would these taxes be deductible.
ANNEXATION #10 SCHOOLS
Atlanta schools have nothing to offer children
attending Fulton County schools.
Although Atlanta schools allegedly have received
preferential treatment from the .joint Fulton County-City of
Atlanta tax assessment board, the Fulton County schools have more
than measured up. In fact, Dr. John Letson admitted that there
was substantially no difference in the two systems. Dr. Paul West
of Fulton County added that for years the two systems’ had been
operating under a coordinating board.
The city schools offer free kindergartens. It is
interesting to note that the State of Georgia is now considering
a plan to add-free kindergartens to all state schools.
Fulton County and Atlanta both have a program for
mentally and physically handicapped children. The tuition is FREE
= jl «=
for both. . -ever, in the case of Fulton County, if the children
live too far from the school, they are TRANSPORTED. Needless to
say, this is a real help to a family which already has the extra
burden of a handicapped child.
Fulton County has school psychologists and
psychometrists. It pioneered specialists in such areas as
curriculum development and reading.
Fulton County operates a joint vocational training
program with the City of Atlanta.
If bus service is lost, Atlanta Transit Company HAS
NOT agreed to furnish transportation at ten cents a ride. And
it .2 did, it would only take some $57,000 a year to transport
those children now being transported free. Try dividing this
among the families of Sandy Springs, and see how much this NEW,
NON-DEDUCTIBLE (on your income tax) "TRANSPORTATION TAX" would
add to the cost of going into the City of Atlanta.
Since Judge Wood's decision that city schools and’
county schools must have their tax structure equalized, for the
first time in 1967 Fulton County Schools will have adequate funds.
Atlanta schools will not. Dr. John Letson says he
needs 64 MILLION DOLLARS to have adequate funds. He can borrow
only 21.5 million, because, to put it quite simply, the property
he has just won't take any bigeer first mortgage (school tax
assessment., The amount of money, that can be borrowed is
limited by the tax base (amount of property) by the State
Legislature.
SO, INSTEAD OF FULTON COUNTY SCHOOLS BEING IN DIRE
NEED, IT IS IN REALITY THE CITY OF ATLANTA SCHOOLS, in’spite of
larger tax assessments, and no homestead exemption deductions,
that are IN DIRE NEED OF FUNDS.
Fulton County schools have NO CHILDREN ON DOUBLE
SESSION -- Atlanta has more than THREE THOUSAND.
Just in passing, City and County officials alike are
NOT agreed that the eventual merger of the two systems will take
plece.

Q. -· What would happen to m y tax bill? How much more would it cost me
to receive the improved services inside the city?
A. - The ad valorem taxes on your home and personal property would be
higher inside the city, but the increase in taxes would be largely offset by reductions in other charges. In almost every case, the net
result would be only a moderate ine-rease in the total. In some cases,
the homeowner would pay less inside the city.
As an example, consider the effect on one of the homes taken from a
random survey of Boulder Park residences . The example is a singlefamily frame dwelling. Its value, for tax purposes, is 14,920. The
1965 Fulton County real estate tax bill on this prope rty was 107. 35
and the personal property tax was j 32. 33 -- a total tax of $139. 68.
If the home had been inside the city, the county and city real estate
tax would have been _$ 191. 63 and the personal property tax would have
been $33. 25 for a total tax of 224. 88 . The increase inside the city
would have been $85. 20.
This increase in ad valorem taxes would have been largely offset by
lower charges in two areas: Water and fire insurance. The actual
water bill for this residence la st year was $80 . 02 , which is very
close to the average bill shown in a survey of some 25 homes in the
Boulder Park area. Inside the city, the water bill would have been
~40. 30, a decrease of 39. 72
It is more difficult to arrive at the exact saving possible in lower
insurance r at es for the homeowner, becaus e of the several different
types of insurance he might choose. But a good e stimate can be
obtained by comparing the rates for "straight fire insurance" on his
dwelling. Since the va lue of his lot makes up part of the total value
of his prop er ty, a ssume that his dwelling is value d at $ 12, 000 of
the $ 14, 92 0 total . Straight fir e insurance on this amount would be
$120 . 6Q_in Boulde r Par k, which has a Clas s 10 r ating . Inside
Atlanta, which ha s a Class 3 r a ting, the sa me fire insur ance would
cost $25.2 0, a difference of 95.40.
The s anitary servic e c harge fo r this home is $21. 00 at pr esent . In
the c ity the c harge would be $22. 00 for greatly impr oved service .
Thus, in the example, an ad valorem tax incr ease of. 85. 20 and an
incre ase of j
00 ·n s a nitary service charge would be offset by
savings of_ 39. 72 (water) and $.a5_.-4.0 (fire insurance ). The net
difference would be a saving of $48. 92 if the home were inside the
city.
Another "intangible" saving will work to the benefit of homeowners
when they file federal and state income taxes . Both federal and state
income tax procedures allow local tax payments to be claimed as a
"deduction" . Payments for such items as water and insurance are
-1-
�not "deductible." This means that the homeowner inside the city -whose property taxes are higher and other charges lower -- can
deduct a greater portion of his total payments for income tax
purposes.
The net effect on his income tax bill would vary, depending on the
income bracket and other factors. But a conservative estimate is
that the typical homeowner could reduce his combined federal and
state income taxes by about 20 per cent of the additional amount
deductible for ad valorem taxes.
In other words, the taxpayer in the example shown above could
deduct $85. 20 more if he were inside the city, and the estimated
saving on his income taxes would be $17. 04. Considering all
aspects of his taxes and charges, the homeowner cited in the
example would actually save almost $70. 00 by being inside the
city, while enjoying improved services.

�A COMPARISON OF TAXES AND CHARGES
FOR SEVERAL TYPICAL HOMEOWNERS
(Boulder Park - City of Atlanta)
In the following examples - all of which are actual residences in a random survey of Boulder Park homes - the
ad valorem taxes, water bill and sanitation charges paid in 1965 are compared with what the same items would
have been if the homes had been inside the corporate limits of the City of Atlanta. The "net change" shown does
not reflect the saving in fire insurance, which would range from a few dollars to a substantial amount, depending
on type of dwelling, its value, location, type of insurance, etc. The change also does not include the savings on
federal and state income tax deductions. See page 1 and 2.

�REPRESENTATION IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Q. - What representation would I have in local government? Other than being
able to vote in elections involving city offices and city issues, how would
my voice in local matters be increased?
A. - You would have more representation in local government, and you would
have a greater voice in matters affecting your community because you
would be closer to your representatives.
The legislative act which provides for the referendum in Boulder Park
spells out that the area would join the city as part of the present Seventh
Ward. The ward is represented by two members of the Board of Aldermen
and one member of the Board of Education, plus two members of the City
Executive Committee. All of these are elected. Residents of Boulder
Park could vote in the next city election in 1969 for these and other offices.
The Boulder Park area presently is governed by, and participates in the
election of, a three-man county commission. County commissioners
must be responsive to the citizens of all areas of the county, and rightly
so, since they represent all the county. The five members of the Fulton
County Board of Education, each representing a school district, are
appointed by the Grand Jury for five-year terms. The county school
superintendent is elected by county-wide vote.
By having two aldermen, both residing in their ward, Boulder Park
citizens would have a stronger voice in matters of local government
and, in effect, would be closer to their elected representatives. In
future elections they would vote in the election of Atlanta's mayor, the
president of the Board of Aldermen, all members of the Board of
Aldermen and Board of Education, and two members of the City
Executive Committee from their own ward. Their ward also would
be reprE:sented on other boards, such as the Atlanta Public Library
Board of Trustees. Additionally, the area's representation would be
enhanced by the appointment of its aldermen to various aldermanic
committees which would deal with matters pertaining specifically to
the Boulder Park area, as well as those affe cting the city as a whole.
- 5-
�GROWTH AND ZONING
Q. - What would happen in the field of zoning and future development of the
Boulder Park area?
A. - You could expect the Boulder Park area to continue to develop as primarily
a low density single-family community. Future apartment and commercial
development could be expected to take place along portions of the major
thoroughfares with emphasis on strong neighborhood commercial centers
at appropriate intervals as opposed to continuous strip commercial
development.
Property would be reclassified into the City of Atlanta zoning district
which most closely resembles the classification under which it is presently zoned in the Fulton County Zoning Ordinance.
Zoning designations as established and use permits as approved by Fulton
County prior to January 1, 1967 will be honored by the City of Atlanta,
and will remain in effect.
Public hearings for consideration of proposed zoning changes in the area
would be held only four times a year, following the area system as is
presently being used in Atlanta. These hearings are held only by the
Zoning Committee after receiving recommendations by the staff of the
Planning Department and the Atlanta-Fulton County Joint Planning
Board. The decision of the Zoning Committee receives final action
by the full Board of Aldermen and Mayor.
The Atlanta Zoning Ordinance contains district classifications which
closely relate to those in the Fulton County Ordinance, a lthough similar
classifications in Atl anta generally contain more restrictive requirements. In addition to these similar districts the Atlanta Ordinance
contains s everal new classifications which permit only a highly selective number of uses with regulations whic h permit and encourage
high development standards. These classifications provide for a
reasonable use of certain properties while permitting only the best
developme nt for the community.
A brief description of these new districts follows :
1.
The "R-9 Single- Family Dwelling Group District" provides
for the construction of townhouse units for individual unit
sale under condominium ownership. Units may not be rented
under this district. The di s trict provide s for a maximum of
twelve dwelling units per acre and a maximum ground coverage
of thirty-five percent including buildings, parking and drives.
Se ve ral fine townhouse developments are presently under
construction in Atlanta. unde r the provisions of this district.
- 6-
�2.
The "A-L Apartment-Limited Dwelling District" provides for
low-density, high-standard apartment developments generally
compatible with substantial single-family residential areas.
The district permits garden apartments (two story units) at a
maximum of twelve dwelling units per acre and permits only
thirty-five percent ground coverage including buildings,
parking and drives.
3.
The "C-L Commercial Limited District" permits primarily
office and institutional uses and a few selected retail studios
and shops. Signs must be attached to the wall of the building
and be only twenty square feet in size. This district provides
often for a reasonable use of portions of the major thoroughfare while discouraging all the inherent ill effects of continuous
strip commercial retail zoning. It has been found to be generally
compatible with certain residential uses as well.
Work would begin immediately to include the Boulder Park area in the
comprehensive planning process now underway in the City of Atlanta.
This comprehensive planning process is made up of four elements as
follows:
1.
Projected future land use needs and their location as a guide to
future rezoning evaluations.
2.
Designation of Major Thoroughfares and their future effect on
the adjacent use of land.
3.
Plans for needed community facilities such as parks, schools
and libraries along with general locations.
4.
The programming of improvements and source of funds necessary
to implement these future plans.
-7-
�FIRE PROTECTION AND FIRE INSURANCE
Q. - How would my fire protection be affected? What would this mean in regard
to what I pay for my fire insurance ?
A. - Your fire insurance rates would be reduced substantially, but, even more
important, better fire protection would be afforded to your home or business.
Fire protection and fire insurance rates go hand in hand. The better the
protection available to you, the less you must pay for fire insurance.
Ratings are assigned to particular areas on the basis of fire protection
facilities and other factors. Fire insurance rates, in turn, are determined by a formula based on the rating.
'
The City of Atlanta has a Class 3 rating, which compares very favorably
with other cities of similar size across the nation. Atlanta has kept well
within the requirements of its Class 3 rating by building, equipping and
maintaining fire stations at key points throughout the city, and by assuring
an ample water supply in every area. Fire protection, in short, is excellent
and fire insurance rates are as low as the rates in all but a few major cities.
~
The Boulder Park area, on the other hand, has no fire protection available
at the present time. As a result, the area has a Class 10 rating. Rates
for straight fire insurance under the Class 10 rating are enormously
higher than the rates under Class 3 -- as much as five and a half times
greater in the case of a frame dwelling.
The Fulton County Commission has passed a resolution declaring a new
fire district, known as the Fulton Industrial Fire District, which encompasse s the Boulder Park area. The county has petitioned the City
of Atlanta to contract the justified fir e protection services for the new
district to earn a Class 6 rating. Those in the Fulton Industrial Fire
District would pay a special fire tax levy of seven mills to satisfy this
contract. It is expected that the contract will be realized during 1966.
Should the citizens of the Boulder Park area voice their desire in the
May 11 r eferendum to become part of Atlanta, thus s eparating the mselves fr om the Indus tr ial Fir e Dis trict, the y would become part of
Atlanta's Class 3 rating and would realize the same fire protection as
similar portions of the city.
The City of Atlanta already has plans to construct a new fire station
in the Adamsville area dur ing 1966. This station, as well a s othe r
c ity fire units in the s urrounding area, would respond to fire ca lls
in the Boulder Park area, thus m eeting the requirem ent s of the
Southeastern Unde rwrite r s.
Thus, by voting to be come part of Atla nta, Boulder P ark re sidents
could expect thei r fire ins urance r a tes to be reduced at the time they
joined the city (Ja nuary 1, 196 7 ) a nd they would not pay the proposed
s even- mill fire tax for t he additional prot ect ion.
-8 -
�POLICE PROTECTION
Q. - What changes would occur in police protection? Would the city build a
new precinct station in Boulder Park?
A. - Police protection would be expanded and improved -- and the basic
concept would change from the type of service provided in rural areas
to the "full-service" protection afforded in a heavily populated urban
area . No additional stations are contemplated in any area of the city,
at present.
Boulder Park presently receives its police service from the City of
Atlanta under a contract arrangement with Fulton County. The only
laws enforceable are state l aws , which are designed, for the most
part, for rural areas. Anyone arrested as a violator of a state law
must be turned over to the Fulton County sheriff for trial in a state
court.
If the area chooses to join the city, it would be necessary to increase
immediately the radio patrol service now provided, add foot patrolmen
for duty in business districts, and add motorcycle patrolmen for traffic
and patrol duty. In addition, the citizens of the Boulder Park area would
receive the benefit of all the services and facilities of the Juvenile Crime
Preve ntion Squad and the special squads in the Detective Department,
which are not now available to the area. Policemen would enforce city
ordinances, as well as state laws, the same as they are enforced in the
rest of Atlanta at present.
The City of Atlanta presently has approximately 1. 5 policemen for every
1,000 population. The city is striving not only to maintain that ratio but
to improve it for the increased protection of all its citizens.
As for adding precinct stations, the trend is away from the precinct
concept in these days of two-way radio communications and other modern
facilities. A radio patrol car, manned by two officers or even just one,
is literally a "traveling precinct station." With radio communications,
the patrolman c an call for assistance and have other officers at his side
within mome nts. The city has no plans for adding precinct stations, and
the emphasis will continue to be on mobility and close communications
by radio.
. - 9-
�SANITATION SERVICE
Q. - How would my garbage pickup and other sanitation services be affected
if Boulder Park joins the city? Would I have to pay more?
A. - Your sanitation service would be expanded and improved, and many
residents actually would pay less than they pay now. The maximum
increase would be a dollar a year, or just two cents a week more.
As a resident of Atlanta, you would begin receiving several services
which are not now available to you -- rubbish pickup, street cleaning,
dead animal removal, sanitary inspection, and "guttering," which
means periodic removal of grass and other obstructions from street
gutters. It is the city's responsibility to bring all these services to
its citizens, as well as providing two garbage collections each week.
You are presently receiving only one garbage pickup each week.
For these additional services, your sanitation charge would be a
maximum of $22. 00 a year, as compared to the $21. 00 a year you
are now paying for far less service. The $22. 00 charge is figured
on a base charge of $6. 00, plus $4. 00 for each 25 feet of lot frontage
or fraction thereof, but not to exceed the $22. 00 a year maximum for
residences. Some residents would pay as little as $14. 00 a year.
Business establishments throughout the area now pay for garbage
collection on the basis of the actual cost of rendering the service.
Most businesses would realize a substantial saving by being a part
of the city -- and would receive improved service as well.
An estimated 800 homes in Boulder Park are getting garbage collection
service (one pickup each week) at this time, according to the City of
Atlanta Department of Sanitary Engineering. Full service would be
extended to these residents immediately after their area became part
of the city. The maximum charge for even the most remote residence
would be only $22 . 00 per year.
A survey of city sanitary services is being conducted at this time
by the Public Administration Service. The findings of the survey,
which will be available soon, will result in improved services.
Any change in rate schedules will apply to both city residents and
county residents receiving city services under contract with the
county government.
-10-
�WATER SERVICE
Q. - What difference, if any, would there be in the way water is supplied
to my home or business? Would my water bill be affected?
A. - The only difference would be on your water bill, which would be
cut in half.
Virtually all the existing homes and businesses in the Boulder Park
area already receive their water from the City of Atlanta Water
Department under an arrangement between the city and Fulton
County. Users outside the city, however, are billed for water at
a double rate. The minimum monthly water bill for the City of
Atlanta users is $1. 57; for those outside the city, the minimum
is $3. 14 per month. Thus, the annual savings for water users
inside the city is at least $18.14.
In reality, savings run much higher than the minimum, however.
Atlanta people are accustomed to having a plentiful supply of good
water at low rates, and they use it in quantity. Experience has
shown that very few homes, inside or outside the city, use little
enough water to be billed for the minimum.
An actual survey of some 25 homes in the Boulder Park area,
chosen at random, showed that the average water charge paid
during 1965 was $78. 32. Only one of these homes was within
a dollar of the minimum bill, and three of the larger users paid
bills of $131.12, $160. 32 a nd $248. 17.
If the se same home s had been inside the city, their water bills
for 1965 would have averaged $39. 78. The average savings would
have been $38. 53 per home .
- -11 -
�SQH @L i
Q. - What changes would occur in the schools my children attend? What would
be done about school bus transporation, since the Atlanta system does not
have free transportation?
A. - Several major differences would occur in the way of advantages: Kindergartens in the Atlanta system schools; a greater emphasis at the high
school level on vocational programs, in addition to the college preparatory
and general programs; and the benefit of more specialized programs and
more technical specialists.
In general, the curricula of the Atlanta system and the Fulton County system
are similar, as are the personnel policies, overall operational procedures
and financial structures.
However, the salary schedules for teachers are somewhat higher in the
Atlanta system. In general, Atlanta teachers are paid 8. 9 per cent more
than Fulton County teachers. Any teachers who become a part of the
Atlanta School System would transfer directly to the city's pension plan
without loss of any money or benefits. Atlanta and Fulton school officials
agree that pension benefits of both systems are practically the same.
A survey by the Atlanta School System showed that there are 380 pupils
in the area included in the May 11 referendum ·-- 270 elementary school
children and 110 in high school. Of these, 69 already are attending
Atlanta schools: 54 elementary pupils in Fain, Oglethorpe, Stanton,
Towns and West Haven schools, and 15 high scho'ol students in Harper,
Turner and West Fulton schools. The remaining 216 elementary pupils
attend East Point Elementary School, and the other 95 high school
students attend South Fulton (in East Point), Thomas (in College Park)
and Lakeshore (in College Park).
A 14-room elementary school is under construction in the Boulder Park
area and will be available for occupancy in September, 1966. School
officials say it is possible this school could help relieve some of the
overcrowding in adjacent schools, such as Fain and Towns. Additionally,
two other sites in the area have been secured for future construction of
an elementary school and a high school .
As for the loss of bus transportation, officials say this problem would be
dealt with right away. The Fulton County system provides free bus transportation for pupils who live further than 1-1/2 miles from school, and
this expense is covered by local and state funds . On the other hand, the
Atlanta Transit System provides bus transportation for Atlanta system
pupils on routes determined by pupil need and with pupils paying as they
ride. Robert Sommerville, president of Atlanta Transit System, has
given assurance that school bus routes would be provided for pupils in
a r eas joining the city.
-12-
�SEWERS
Q. - Would there be any major changes in the system of sewer service?
Would I be assessed any sewer charges before sewer service is
extended to my home ?
A. - If your home is already on a sewer line, or if you have a working
septic tank, you probably would see no immediate changes that
would affect you. Certainly, there would be no sewer assessment
charged until sewer service is provided.
The city already has made a preliminary study of the probable needs
of the area, and it would undertake to make the necessary improvements and additions as soon as possible. However, your present
situation would largely govern the effect on you and your home.
For example, if your home already is served by a sewer line, you
would see nothing different. You would continue receiving the
service with no special charges or other changes, except where
such might be applied city-wide. If your home is served by a
working septic tank in good condition, then you would not be
affected until a sewer line is extended to your street. Even
when this occurred, you could be granted as long as six years
to pay the assessment which is always made for this service.
If sewer service were brought to your neighborhood for the first
time -- this is always by petition of the residents -- then your
property would be assessed on a front-footage basis for the sewer
line in front of your property. This assessment is set by law at
$3. 50 per front foot. The connection to your home from the sewer
line, if the line were laid on a street that is already paved, would
be between $80 and $120. And again, if you already have a satisfactory septic tank, you could be allowed up to six years to pay the
assessment.
This policy exists in the case of already existing residences and
does not apply to vacant property, however .
- 13-
�STREET LIGHTS AND TRAFFIC SIGNALS
Q. - Would the city provide street lights in my neighborhood right away?
What would be done about traffic signals?
A. - As a general policy, the City of Atlanta provides street lights in areas
as requested by the residents, and it has kept up with demands since
the 1952 Plan of Improvement.
No wholesale program of street light installation is anticipated in any
part of the city, because of budget limitations. In other words, a
neighborhood that has not expressed a positive desire for this service
need not fear that street lights would be forced on them. However,
the city, through its Traffic Engineering Department, has been attentive to the requests of those who do want lights and is currently
right on schedule in meeting these demands. Additionally, a program
of upgrading street lights on major thoroughfares is in progress to
bring these facilities up to the latest recommended standards.
A preliminary survey in the Boulder Park area has shown that some
18 street lights are currently in use, all on local streets. The estimated
needs for arterial streets include 80 lights, which, obviously, could not
be installed all at once. The estimated needs for local streets are for
some 221 additional lights, which would be undertaken by the city on the
basis of requests by the residents.
-
In general, the city installs traffic signals at intersections where traffic
conditions satisfy the "warrants" set out by uniform national standards,
as adopted and prescribed by the Georgia Highway Department. However,
Atlanta citizens on occasion have shown a desire for and have provided
the necessary funds to have signals installed at some intersections
where the "warrants" are not fully met. This can be accomplished at
intersections where signals are a help to traffic movement and a convenience to the citizens.
No traffic signals are now in service in the Boulder Park area, but one
new signal may be needed in the next two to three years, according to
the city survey.
�STREETS AND SIDEWALKS
Q. - What could Boulder Park expect in the way of street and sidewalk
improvements, now and in the future? How can we get sidewalks
or streets paved, and how much would it cost?
A. - A survey by the City of Atlanta Department of Construction found
two streets in the Boulder Park area in "below average" condition
-- Fairburn Road and part of Boulder Park Drive. Both of these
will require resurfacing in the very near future, the Construction
Department said. The city has pledged to assign a high priority
to these projects. The other streets in the area are in "good" or
"average" condition and will not require immediate work.
Paving of streets and sidewalks in the City of Atlanta, with two
exceptions, requires a petition signed by more than 50 per cent
of the property owners involved. Property owners are assessed
for the cost of the paving on a front-footage basis. The average
assessment for sidewalks in residential areas (six-foot sidewalks)
is about $2. 60 per front foot, and property owners are allowed up
to four years to pay. Charges for street paving vary with the size
of the project, but the assessment generally is between $6. 50 and
$7. 50 per front foot for paving and curbing. Property owners are
allowed up to 10 years to pay the assessments for street paving and
up to four years to pay for curbing.
The two exceptions to the petition method are for sidewalks which
are deemed necessary for reasons of safety, and for sidewalks in
front of schools. If a sidewalk is required for public safety, the
city may put one in without being petitioned and then assess property
owners on a front-footage basis. Sidewalks in front of schools are
built at city expense, with no petition required .
In line with its policy on school sidewalks, the City of Atlanta would
move as quickly as possible to install sidewalks in front of the new
elementary school now under construction in the Boulder Park area.

We sREM TASES
-- What would happen to my tax bill? How much more would it cost me
to receive the improved services inside the city ?
The ad valorem taxes on your home and personal property would be
higher inside the city, but the increase in taxes would be largely off-
set by reductions in other charges. In almost every case, the net
result would be only a moderate increase in the total. In some cases,
the homeowner would pay less inside the city.
As an example, consider the effect on one of the homes taken from a
random survey of Boulder Park residences. The example is a single-
family frame dwelling. Its value, for tax purposes, is $14,920. The
1965 Fulton County real estate tax bill on this property was $107. 35,.
and the personal property tax was $32.33 -- a total tax of $139.68.
If the home had been inside the city, the county and city real estate
tax would have been $191.63 and the personal property tax would have
been $33.25 for a total tax of $224.88. The increase inside the city
would have been $85. 20. @
This increase in ad valorem taxes would have been largely offset by
lower charges in two areas: Water and fire insurance. The actual
water bill for this residence last year was $80.02, which is very
close to the average bill shown in a survey of some 25 homes in the
Boulder Park area. Inside the city, the water bill would have been
$40.30, a decrease of $39.72,
It is more difficult to arrive at the exact saving possible in lower
insurance rates for the homeowner, because of the several different
types of insurance he might choose. But a good estimate can be
obtained by comparing the rates for "straight fire insurance" on his
dwelling. Since the value of his lot makes up part of the total value
of his property, assume that his dwelling is valued at $12, 000 of
the $14, 920 total. Straight fire insurance on this amount would be
_$120.60 in Boulder Park, which has a Class 10 rating. Inside
Atlanta, which has a Class 3 rating, the same fire insurance would
cost $25. 20, a difference of $95.40.
The sanitary service charge for this home is $21.00 at present. Ih
the city the charge would be $22.00 for greatly improved service.
Thus, in the example, an ad valorem tax increase of $85.20 and an
increase of $1.00 in sanitary service charge would be offset by
savings of $39.72 (water) and $95.40 (fire insurance). The net
difference would be a saving of $48. 92 if the home were inside the
city. ==
Another "intangible" saving will work to the benefit of homeowners
when they file federal and state income taxes. Both federal and state
income tax procedures allow local tax payments to be claimed as a
"deduction". Payments for such items as water and insurance are
not "deductible.'' This means that the homeowner inside the city —
whose property taxes are higher and other charges lower -- can
deduct a greater portion of his total payments for income tax
purposes.
The net effect on his income tax bill would vary, depending on the
income bracket and other factors. But a conservative estimate is
that the typical homeowner could reduce his combined federal and
state income taxes by about 20 per cent of the additional amount
deductible for ad valorem taxes.
In other words, the taxpayer in the example shown above could
deduct $85.20 more if he were inside the city, and the estimated
saving on his income taxes would be $17.04. Considering all
aspects of his taxes and charges, the homeowner cited in the
example would actually save almost $70.00 by being inside the
city, while enjoying improved services.
In the following examples - all of which are actual residences in a random survey of Boulder Park homes - the
ad valorem taxes, water bill and sanitation charges paid in 1965 are compared with what the same items would

Q. -
REPRESENTATION IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT
What representation would I have in local government? Other than being
able to vote in elections involving city offices and city issues, how would
my voice in local matters be increased ?
You would have more representation in local government, and you would
have a greater voice in matters affecting your community because you
would be closer to your representatives.
The legislative act which provides for the referendum in Boulder Park
spells out that the area would join the city as part of the present Seventh
Ward. The ward is represented by two members of the Board of Aldermen
and one member of the Board of Education, plus two members of the City
Executive Committee. All of these are elected. Residents of Boulder
Park could vote in the next city election in 1969 for these and other offices.
The Boulder Park area presently is governed by, and participates in the
election of, a three-man county commission. County commissioners
must be responsive to the citizens of all areas of the county, and rightly
so, since they represent all the county. The five members of the Fulton
County Board of Education, each representing a school district, are
appointed by the Grand Jury for five-year terms. The county school
superintendent is elected by county-wide vote.
By having two aldermen, both residing in their ward, Boulder Park
citizens would have a stronger voice in matters of local government
and, in effect, would be closer to their elected representatives. In
future elections they would vote in the election of Atlanta's mayor, the
president of the Board of Aldermen, all members of the Board of
Aldermen and Board of Education, and two members of the City
Executive Committee from their own ward. Their ward also would
be represented on other boards, such as the Atlanta Public Library
Board of Trustees. Additionally, the area's representation would be
enhanced by the appointment of its aldermen to various aldermanic
committees which would deal with matters pertaining specifically to
the Boulder Park area, as well as those affecting the city as a whole.
Q.
A.
GROWTH AND ZONING
What would happen in the field of zoning and future development of the
Boulder Park area?
You could expect the Boulder Park area to continue to develop as primarily
a low density single-family community. Future apartment and commercial
development could be expected to take place along portions of the major
thoroughfares with emphasis on strong neighborhood commercial centers
at appropriate intervals as opposed to continuous strip commercial
development.
Property would be reclassified into the City of Atlanta zoning district
which most closely resembles the classification under which it is pre=
sently zoned in the Fulton County Zoning Ordinance.
Zoning designations as established and use permits as approved by Fulton
County prior to January 1, 1967 will be honored by the City of Atlanta,
and will remain in effect.
Public hearings for consideration of proposed zoning changes in the area
would be held only four times a year, following the area system as is
presently being used in Atlanta. These hearings are held only by the
Zoning Committee after receiving recommendations by the staff of the
Planning Department and the Atlanta-Fulton County Joint Planning
Board. The decision of the Zoning Committee receives final action
by the full Board of Aldermen and Mayor.
The Atlanta Zoning Ordinance contains district classifications which
closely relate to those in the Fulton County Ordinance, although similar
classifications in Atlanta generally contain more restrictive require-
ments. In addition to these similar districts the Atlanta Ordinance
contains several new classifications which permit only a highly se-
lective number of uses with regulations which permit and encourage
high development standards, These classifications provide for a
reasonable use of certain properties while permitting only the best
development for the community.
A brief description of these new districts follows:
1. The "R-9 Single-Family Dwelling Group District" provides
for the construction of townhouse units for individual unit
sale under condominium ownership. Units may not be rented
under this district. The district provides for a maximum of
twelve dwelling units per acre and a maximum ground coverage
of thirty-five percent including buildings, parking and drives.
Several fine townhouse developments are presently under
construction in Atlanta under the provisions of this district.
-(§-
2. The "A-L Apartment-Limited Dwelling District" provides for
low-density, high-standard apartment developments generally
compatible with substantial single-family residential areas.
The district permits garden apartments (two story units) ata
maximum of twelve dwelling units per acre and permits only
thirty-five percent ground coverage including buildings,
parking and drives.
3. The 'C-L Commercial Limited District" permits primarily
office and institutional uses and a few selected retail studios
and shops. Signs must be attached to the wall of the building
and be only twenty square feet in size. This district provides
often for a reasonable use of portions of the major thorough-
fare while discouraging all the inherent ill effects of continuous
strip commercial retail zoning. It has been found to be generally
compatible with certain residential uses as well.
Work would begin immediately to include the Boulder Park area in the
comprehensive planning process now underway in the City of Atlanta.
This comprehensive planning process is made up of four elements as
follows:
1. Projected future land use needs and their location as a guide to
future rezoning evaluations.
2, Designation of Major Thoroughfares and their future effect on
the adjacent use of land.
3. Plans for needed community facilities such as parks, schools
and libraries along with general locations.
4, The programming of improvements and source of funds necessary
to implement these future plans.
FIRE PROTECTION AND FIRE INSURANCE
Q. - How would my fire protection be affected? What would this mean in regard
A.
to what I pay for my fire insurance ?
Your fire insurance rates would be reduced substantially, but, even more
important, better fire protection would be afforded to your home or business.
Fire protection and fire insurance rates go hand in hand. The better the
protection available to you, the less you must pay for fire insurance.
Ratings are assigned to particular areas on the basis of fire protection
facilities and other factors. Fire insurance rates, in turn, are deter-
mined by a formula based on the rating.
The City of Atlanta has a Class 3 rating, which compares very favorably
with other cities of similar size across the nation. Atlanta has kept well
within the requirements of its Class 3 rating by building, equipping and
maintaining fire stations at key points throughout the city, and by assuring
an ample water supply in every area. Fire protection, in short, is excellent
and fire insurance rates are as low as the rates in all but a few major cities,
The Boulder Park area, on the other hand, has no fire protection available
at the present time. Asa result, the area has a Class 10 rating. Rates
for straight fire insurance under the Class 10 rating are enormously
higher than the rates under Class 3 -- as much as five and a half times
greater in the case of a frame dwelling,
The Fulton County Commission has passed a resolution declaring a new
fire district, known as the Fulton Industrial Fire District, which en-
compasses the Boulder Park area. The county has petitioned the City
of Atlanta to contract the justified fire protection services for the new
district to earn a Class 6 rating, Those in the Fulton Industrial Fire
District would pay a special fire tax levy of seven mills to satisfy this
contract. It is expected that the contract will be realized during 1966.
Should the citizens of the Boulder Park area voice their desire in the
May 11 referendum to become part of Atlanta, thus separating them-
selves from the Industrial Fire District, they would become part of
Atlanta's Class 3 rating and would realize the same fire protection as
similar portions of the city.
The City of Atlanta already has plans to construct a new fire station
in the Adamsville area during 1966. This station, as well as other
city fire units in the surrounding area, would respond to fire calls
in the Boulder Park area, thus meeting the requirements of the
Southeastern Underwriters.
Thus, by voting to become part of Atlanta, Boulder Park residents
could expect their fire insurance rates to be reduced at the time they
joined the city (January 1, 1967) and they would not pay the proposed
seven-mill fire tax for the additional protection.
POLICE PROTECTION
Q. - What changes would occur in police protection? Would the city builda
A.
new precinct station in Boulder Park?
Police protection would be expanded and improved -- and the basic
concept would change from the type of service provided in rural areas
to the "full-service" protection afforded in a heavily populated urban
area. No additional stations are contemplated in any area of the city,
at present.
Boulder Park presently receives its police service from the City of
Atlanta under a contract arrangement with Fulton County. The only
laws enforceable are state laws, which are designed, for the most
part, for rural areas. Anyone arrested as a violator of a state law
must be turned over to the Fulton County sheriff for trial in a state
court.
If the area chooses to join the city, it would be necessary to increase
immediately the radio patrol service now provided, add foot patrolmen
for duty in business districts, and add motorcycle patrolmen for traffic
and patrol duty. In addition, the citizens of the Boulder Park area would
receive the benefit of all the services and facilities of the Juvenile Crime
Prevention Squad and the special squads in the Detective Department,
which are not now available to the area. Policemen would enforce city
ordinances, as well as state laws, the same as they are enforced in the
rest of Atlanta at present.
The City of Atlanta presently has approximately 1.5 policemen for every
1,000 population, The city is striving not only to maintain that ratio but
to improve it for the increased protection of all its citizens.
As for adding precinct stations, the trend is away from the precinct
concept in these days of two-way radio communications and other modern
facilities. A radio patrol car, manned by two officers or even just one,
is literally a "traveling precinct station."' With radio communications,
the patrolman can call for assistance and have other officers at his side
within moments. The city has no plans for adding precinct stations, and
the emphasis will continue to be on mobility and close communications
by radio.
SANITATION SERVICE
Q. - How would my garbage pickup and other sanitation services be affected
A.
if Boulder Park joins the city? Would I have to pay more?
Your sanitation service would be expanded and improved, and many
residents actually would pay less than they pay now. The maximum
increase would be a dollar a year, or just two cents a week more.
As a resident of Atlanta, you would begin receiving several services
which are not now available to you -- rubbish pickup, street cleaning,
dead animal removal, sanitary inspection, and "guttering, '"' which
means periodic removal of grass and other obstructions from street
gutters. It is the city's responsibility to bring all these services to
its citizens, as well as providing two garbage collections each week.
You are presently receiving only one garbage pickup each week.
For these additional services, your sanitation charge would be a
maximum of $22.00 a year, as compared to the $21.00 a year you
are now paying for far less service. The $22.00 charge is figured
on a base charge of $6.00, plus $4.00 for each 25 feet of lot frontage
or fraction thereof, but not to exceed the $22.00 a year maximum for
residences. Some residents would pay as little as $14.00 a year.
Business establishments throughout the area now pay for garbage
collection on the basis of the actual cost of rendering the service.
Most businesses would realize a substantial saving by being a part
of the city -- and would receive improved service as well.
An estimated 800 homes in Boulder Park are getting garbage collection
service (one pickup each week) at this time, according to the City of
Atlanta Department of Sanitary Engineering. Full service would be
extended to these residents immediately after their area became part
of the city. The maximum charge for even the most remote residence
would be only $22,00 per year.
A survey of city sanitary services is being conducted at this time
by the Public Administration Service. The findings of the survey,
which will be available soon, will result in improved services.
Any change in rate schedules will apply to both city residents and
county residents receiving city services under contract with the
county government.

Q. -
A, -
WATER SERVICE
What difference, if any, would there be in the way water is supplied
to my home or business? Would my water bill be affected?
The only difference would be on your water bill, which would be
cut in half.
Virtually all the existing homes and businesses in the Boulder Park
area already receive their water from the City of Atlanta Water
Department under an arrangement between the city and Fulton
County. Users outside the city, however, are billed for water at
a double rate. The minimum monthly water bill for the City of
Atlanta users is $1.57; for those outside the city, the minimum
is $3.14 per month. Thus, the annual savings for water users
inside the city is at least $18.14,
In reality, savings run much higher than the minimum, however.
Atlanta people are accustomed to having a plentiful supply of good
water at low rates, and they use it in quantity. Experience has
shown that very few homes, inside or outside the city, use little
enough water to be billed for the minimum.
An actual survey of some 25 homes in the Boulder Park area,
chosen at random, showed that the average water charge paid
during 1965 was $78.32. Only one of these homes was within
a dollar of the minimum bill, and three of the larger users paid
bills of $131.12, $160.32 and $248.17.
If these same homes had been inside the city, their water bills
for 1965 would have averaged $39.78. The average savings would
have been $38.53 per home.
>a§ Tic
Q. -
SCHOOLS
What changes would occur in the schools my children attend? What would
be done about school bus transporation, since the Atlanta system does not
have free transportation ?
Several major differences would occur in the way of advantages: Kinder-
gartens in the Atlanta system schools; a greater emphasis at the high
school level on vocational programs, in addition to the college preparatory
and general programs; and the benefit of more specialized programs and
more technical specialists.
In general, the curricula of the Atlanta system and the Fulton County system
are similar, as are the personnel policies, overall operational procedures
and financial structures.
However, the salary schedules for teachers are somewhat higher in the
Atlanta system. In general, Atlanta teachers are paid 8.9 per cent more
than Fulton County teachers. Any teachers who become a part of the
Atlanta School System would transfer directly to the city's pension plan
without loss of any money or benefits. Atlanta and Fulton school officials
agree that pension benefits of both systems are practically the same.
A survey by the Atlanta School System showed that there are 380 pupils
in the area included in the May 11 referendum -- 270 elementary school
children and 110 in high school, Of these, 69 already are attending
Atlanta schools: 54 elementary pupils in Fain, Oglethorpe, Stanton,
Towns and West Haven schools, and 15 high school students in Harper,
Turner and West Fulton schools. The remaining 216 elementary pupils
attend East Point Elementary School, and the other 95 high school
students attend South Fulton (in East Point), Thomas (in College Park)
and Lakeshore (in College Park).
A 14-room elementary school is under construction in the Boulder Park
area and will be available for occupancy in September, 1966. School
officials say it is possible this school could help relieve some of the
overcrowding in adjacent schools, such as Fain and Towns, Additionally,
two other sites in the area have been secured for future construction of
an elementary school and a high school.
As for the loss of bus transportation, officials say this problem would be
dealt with right away. The Fulton County system provides free bus trans-
portation for pupils who live further than 1-1/2 miles from school, and
this expense is covered by local and state funds. On the other hand, the
Atlanta Transit System provides bus transportation for Atlanta system
pupils on routes determined by pupil need and with pupils paying as they
ride. Robert Sommerville, president of Atlanta Transit System, has
given assurance that school bus routes would be provided for pupils in
areas joining the city.

Q.
SEWERS
- Would there be any major changes in the system of sewer service?
Would I be assessed any sewer charges before sewer service is
extended to my home?
If your home is already on a sewer line, or if you have a working
septic tank, you probably would see no immediate changes that
would affect you. Certainly, there would be no sewer assessment
charged until sewer service is provided.
The city already has made a preliminary study of the probable needs
of the area, and it would undertake to make the necessary improve-
ments and additions as soon as possible. However, your present
situation would largely govern the effect on you and your home,
For example, if your home already is served by a sewer line, you
would see nothing different. You would continue receiving the
service with no special charges or other changes, except where
such might be applied city-wide. If your home is served by a
working septic tank in good condition, then you would not be
affected until a sewer line is extended to your street. Even
when this occurred, you could be granted as long as six years
to pay the assessment which is always made for this service.
If sewer service were brought to your neighborhood for the first
time -- this is always by petition of the residents -- then your
property would be assessed on a front-footage basis for the sewer
line in front of your property. This assessment is set by law at
$3.50 per front foot. The connection to your home from the sewer
line, if the line were laid on a street that is already paved, would
be between $80 and $120, And again, if you already have a satis-
factory septic tank, you could be allowed up to six years to pay the
assessment.
This policy exists in the case of already existing residences and
does not apply to vacant property, however.

STREET LIGHTS AND TRAFFIC SIGNALS
Q. - Would the city provide street lights in my neighborhood right away ?
What would be done about traffic signals ?
A. - Asa general policy, the City of Atlanta provides street lights in areas
as requested by the residents, and it has kept up with demands since
the 1952 Plan of Improvement.
No wholesale program of street light installation is anticipated in any
part of the city, because of budget limitations. In other words, a
neighborhood that has not expressed a positive desire for this service
need not fear that street lights would be forced on them. However,
the city, through its Traffic Engineering Department, has been at-
tentive to the requests of those who do want lights and is currently
right on schedule in meeting these demands. Additionally, a program
of upgrading street lights on major thoroughfares is in progress to
bring these facilities up to the latest recommended standards.
A preliminary survey in the Boulder Park area has shown that some
18 street lights are currently in use, all on local streets. The estimated
needs for arterial streets include 80 lights, which, obviously, could not
be installed all at once. The estimated needs for local streets are for
some 221 additional lights, which would be undertaken by the city on the
basis of requests by the residents.
In general, the city installs traffic signals at intersections where traffic
conditions satisfy the "warrants" set out by uniform national standards,
as adopted and prescribed by the Georgia Highway Department. However,
Atlanta citizens on occasion have shown a desire for and have provided
the necessary funds to have signals installed at some intersections
where the "warrants" are not fully met. This can be accomplished at
intersections where signals are a help to traffic movement and a con-
venience to the citizens.
No traffic signals are now in service in the Boulder Park area, but one
new signal may be needed in the next two to three years, according to
the city survey.
STREETS AND SIDEWALKS
Q. - What could Boulder Park expect in the way of street and sidewalk
improvements, now and in the future? How can we get sidewalks
or streets paved, and how much would it cost?
A. - A survey by the City of Atlanta Department of Construction found
two streets in the Boulder Park area in "below average" condition
-- Fairburn Road and part of Boulder Park Drive. Both of these
will require resurfacing in the very near future, the Construction
Department said. The city has pledged to assign a high priority
to these projects. The other streets in the area are in "good" or
"average" condition and will not require immediate work.
Paving of streets and sidewalks in the City of Atlanta, with two
exceptions, requires a petition signed by more than 50 per cent
of the property owners involved. Property owners are assessed
for the cost of the paving on a front-footage basis. The average
assessment for sidewalks in residential areas (six-foot sidewalks)
is about $2.60 per front foot, and property owners are allowed up
to four years to pay. Charges for street paving vary with the size
of the project, but the assessment generally is between $6.50 and
$7.50 per front foot for paving and curbing. Property owners are
allowed up to 10 years to pay the assessments for street paving and
up to four years to pay for curbing.
The two exceptions to the petition method are for sidewalks which
are deemed necessary for reasons of safety, and for sidewalks in
front of schools. If a sidewalk is required for public safety, the
city may put one in without being petitioned and then assess property
owners on a front-footage basis. Sidewalks in front of schools are
built at city expense, with no petition required.
In line with its policy on school sidewalks, the City of Atlanta would
move as quickly as possible to install sidewalks in front of the new
