This possibility is xeflected in the issue of May 16 of MeGraw-Hill's Construction Weekly which stated: "According to HUD, three contractors were chosen instead of one, as originally planned, to carxy out the In-City proposal because each is approaching the problem in a difrverent way. However, sources close to the project say that the ABT-DMIM group was selected first in a competition among 19 firms, Two weeks later, the sources say, Westinghouse and Buildings Systems Development received contracts and the three are in competition now for the second stage of the program.

Text Any textual data included in the document Authority and FHA, &@s well as informat Justification For Senior Typist Clerk Needed to gather, mintain and prepare the Status Report, on monthi basis. of the Low and Medium Income Housing Program. The report aonetate o ree (3) Sections: Project Inventory, Summary and Index. It currently contains 109 separate projects and the number is constantly growing. The status of each project is constantly changing during planning and development, which in the large projects may extend several years. It is very important that the Status Report on the Low-income Housing Program be maintained and kept current, as it is the only composite record of low and medium income housing in the City. The data is assembled from periodic reports specially requested from,and submitted by, the Planning Department, Building Division, Housing Code Division, Housing : jon obtained directly from builders and developers; and from other Departments and Agencies on certain projects, Project sponsors, owners and managers should also be contacted to determine breakdown of units by bedroom composition and verification of rental prices, etc. Detailed information such as number of units, with bedroom composition, rentals or purchase prices, extent of utilities furnished and status of @evelopment of each project is necessary for providing essential and timely information on the projects to Relocation Services and to the Public who may be interested in occupying the units. Requirements are constantly increasing from the Public and government officials for information contained in this report. The information is also invaluable to the City in documenting annual revisions of the Workable Program and in providing data on relocation capabilities of the City in connection with applications for Urban Renewal and Neighborhood Development Program projects thoughout the City, and especially as pertains to the Model Cities area. The person charged with this function could be administratively assigned to another Department, but, to be most effective, should work directly with and under the supervision of the Housing Coordinator. To date, this report has been prepared, only sketchily and i produced much too infrequently, by the Housing Coordimtor, who cannot devote the time to it which is required, and still perform his other promotional and coordinating functiom in connection with the Low-income Housing Progran. If the Low-Income Housing Program should change direction soon to reflect expanding activities in the Model Cities program and the placing of greater emphasis in other directions, on more involved activities such as the Urban Coalitian, it will be more important than ever that someone be available, familiar with and able to keep - the Low-income Housing Status Report on a current and continuing asis,. Justification for Housing Consultant Financial support for the services of Mr. W. ¥. Gates, former Chief Underwriter of FHA in Atlanta (and subsequently at national level)as a Housing Consultant to the HRC, has been provided thus far by Urban America, Inc. However, Urban America feels that the Atlanta program has advanced sufficiently so that its financial support for = Services of Mr. Gates should now be withdrawn and be assumed by the city. Mr. Gates’ experience gs,a Chief Underwriter and trouble shooter for FHA, together with his many contacts with FHA officials on a personal basis and intimate knowledge of Metropolitan Atlanta, makes his services a very valuable asset to the Housing Resources Committee in a Consultant capacity for the Low-income Housing Program. i i ll  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The first area visited on the tour was the Bedford-Pine Urban Renewal Area. Mr. Lester Parsells, Associate Executive Director of the Housing Authority, acted as narrator during the tour through the Bedford-Pine area. This area is located near downtown .Atlanta and is North, East and Southwest of the new Civic Center on Piedmont Avenue. This is one of our worst slums. The Urban Renewal project is still in the Planning stage, but is expected to get in execution soon, perhaps under the newly approved Neighborho~d Development Program of the 1968 Housing Act. It will take about - 2½ years from now to clear the land in the clearance port i on. The reason fo r it taking so long is that it will have to be ta ken block by block . Many of the families in this area will have to be relocated. Some of the houses or buildings ~1 1 1· not be demolished but will be rehabilitated, Th·e \'lest side of Pz r kway Drive, South of Forrest Avenue, in the Bedford-Pine area i s to be used for Commerical development and the East side of Pa r kway Drive, South of Forrest Avenue, is intended for the Georgia Baptist Hos pit al Expa ns ion program. The people are work ing toge the r to help cle a n up the a r eas and a re work ing on a rat control pr og ram i n the a rea. Th e fi r st s t o p wa s Whe~t Stree t Garden Apa rtments in the Butler St reet Urba n Re newa l area . Th ls is a 221 d{3) pro ject, Non•pro f it and Re n t Suppl ement . The non-profit s ponsor is t he Wheat Stre et Baptist Churc h. The ? a stor is Rev. Wi l l i am Ho lmes Borders . The Whe a t Street Garden Apa r t ments are being developed in three phases. In Phase I there are 280 u nits , which are all two bedrooms with the rent for the upstairs apartme n t s at $74.00 and the downstairs apartments a t $71.00. This section was completed just before the current accelerated low-income ho~sing program started. Ph~se II of the project bas 84 units with rent for a one bedroom apartment being $79. 0 0 and the rent on the 3 bedroom apartments being $98. 00. The cost per unit of Phase II was $10, 912 of FHA Commitment. In Ph~se III of the projec t there �Page 2 are 108 units of three bedrooms at $140.00 with $80.00 a month Rent Supplement. The cost per unit of P hase XII is $12,500, FHA Commitment. We then traveled to another section of the City which is commonly !mown as "Lightening". Lightening is located almost in the heart of the City between Northside Drive and Marietta Street. This are~ is zoned M-2 (Heavy Industry). Most of the housing is d ilapidated and the streets are so narrow that it is almost impossible to get a car through them. Old, abandoned cars line most of the streets of the area, which h i nder the safety of the area. People from this area and many of the other slum areas are being hired for $1.60 an, hour to clean up the streets and to work with the small children. Li ghtening is considered the worst s l um in At lanta . A wal k through portions of this area, brought the tour group into first hand contact with the slum conditions which exist in this and other similar areas. The realization of the need for clearance and rebuildingaf something useful in this area was dramatic. The bus then took us t o and through the Vine City area . Vine City has long been considered for an Urban Renewal project. The main prob lem that lies here is l ack o f citizen agreement on participation. Here like in many o f the other slum areas, the houses are built r ight next to each other, with roofs and floors about to c ave in. P lumbing, which is no t up to standard, is a hazard to t he safety and health o f pe o ple in this area. We then traveled t o the Frie ndship Center in the Unive r sity Urban Ronewal area .

Mr . Alexander i el t that all we can do v is to .spot specif i c deficiencies and to make r ecommennRt ions ; t hat we cannot r ewrite t he codes . He suggested the fo::.-1owing: (1 ) a r ev i •·w• of code studies already performed ; ( 2) communications with prefabricated hous i ng manufacturers as t o th e ir experi ences concerning codes; ( 3) communications with HUD concerning t hei r requirements; ( 4) communications with the bu ilding inspectors, plumbing inspectors, electrical inspectors and so f orth. Mr. Johnny Johnson, Director of the_ Mod el Cities Program for t he City of Atl anta, stated that he felt a need to create and i nnovate in housing is E;:JSPl icit in t he Model Cities -Program requirements. He feels t hat a part of the problemmight well be in �-2- Vthe interpretation of the existing codes rather than in the cod~ itself in many cases. He feels that the Model Cities Program should be able to do some things which are different and that they need support for these. They will seek: to receive some freedom through the Mayor's Office, Board of Aldermen and the Building Inspector's Office to innovate with new techniques and new materials. i Mr. Johnson noted that demonstration cities have not yet been named by HUD and that if Atlanta is .1J9.med we must be ready to take advantage of 1this program. His office has engaged 'tric Hill & Company to make a study of the modifications necessary. in the codes of Atlanta to implement Model City Programs. A cqpy of their findings will be provided to the Panel. ' Mr. Jim Wright of the Model Cities Program stated that so far the study by Eric ijill & Company has suggested three criteria for codes: (1) they should be based on performance as much as possible; (2) there should be as few specific restrictions as ppssible, and; (3) an "or equal" clause should be inserted whenever specifics are made a part of the code. He noted that these standards will be necessary to prop·e rly administer the Model Cities Program. Mr. Wright believes that New York City has such a code and possibly the City of Chicago also. Mr. Johnson stated that some 7,000 housing units in the Model Cities area are --,. substandard. Thus, six or seven thousand new units will be needed in the next several years in an area which comprises only 4% of Atlanta's land area· just to relocate these residents. Mr. Moore, of the Metropoli~ an Planning Commission, felt that writing codes is unnecessary and impossible. He stated that there are four model codes and that regardless of claims, the Atlanta code is not the same as national codes. He stated that they vary considerably and that the plumbing code in particular is far from any national code and that most prov isions in it are arbitrary. These differences should be easy to detect and he feels the Plumbing Inspection Department should be required to justify the requirements which vary from National Standards. Mr. Moore suggested that to make a quick step a recommendation should be made to go to one of the model codes because there is no provision in the plumbing code, for example, for ammendment except by action of the Board of Aldermen on each specific point. - -:: ~ ~ 1' ~ tJ Mr. Moore suggested that the Panel try to get the Southern Standard Code accepte~ and noted that the administrative offices for this code provide for profess ional evaluation of new method s. Mr. Malcolm Little stated that the Southern Code is better --t than the National Codes because the latter are not revised often and the Southern Code is. ~ Mr. Alexander commented on the experience .of National Homes in th e Thomasville Urban Renewal Area in seeking wa ivers or exceptions to the code. Basically two houses were to be built as demons tration units. One deficiency was that there were not enough electrical outlets. Another is that plastic waste lines and preassembled copper supply lines and fiberglass tubs and backsplashes were not in accordance with the code ·• . The preassembled copper and plastic lines were fought because "plumbers should not be working in a factory, but outside where it is healthier." He noted, however, that the Building Inspection and Electrical Inspection units have both said that they would send inspectors to a factory at the expense of the manufacturer. The Plumbing Inspection Department so far has not agreed to send inspectors to a factory if the factory is located outside of the City of Atlanta. �-3- Mr. Alexander proposed we consider the slogan "Model Codes for Model Cities." Colonel Jones noted that HUD has started on some experimental construct ion projects on low-cost housing units. One is at Ashburn, Georgia, and one is in Pinellas County, Florida. One deals with low-cost single family units and the other with "golden age" units for the elderly. The following steps were decided to be neces sary by the Panel: 1. 2• 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Coordinate efforts of the Panel with the Model Cities Program. the Southern Building Code idea for implementation in Atlanta. Pursue the National Electr ical Code (Southern Code does not have Electrical Code) for implementation in Atlanta. Contact National Homes and other manufacturers concerning their experiences with codes here and elsewhere. Contact major manufacturer s who would be involved and get their views and enlist their support if possible.

Winn SUBJECT: Luncheon Meeting of the Construction and Design Panel, Housing Resources Committee, September 24, 1968, on the Georgia Tech Campus. Those present were Vice Chairman Moreland Smith, Mr. Cecil Alexander, Colonel Malcolm Jones, Mr. Herman Russell, Mr. Henry Alexander, Mr. Robert C. Watkins, and Mr. D. P. Elliott. The following guests were also present: Mr. Malcolm Little, Director of City Planning, Georgia Tech; Mr. Johnny Johnson, Director of Model Cities Program, City of Atlanta; Mr. James Wright, Physical Planning Coordinator, ' Model Cities Program, City of Atlanta; and Mr. Wayne Moore, Metropolitan Planning Commission. Reverend John A. Middleton, Mr. James Moore and Dr. E. D. Harrison could not be present. Dr. Harrison was represented by Mr. Bob Winn. Mr. Smith presided and called on Colonel Jones to review the status of the Housing Resources Committee and to state Chairman Alexander's recent charge to the Construction and Design Panel. Colonel Jones stated that as of now some 3,000 housing units have been completed and 5,000 are under construction which relate: to the Committee's charge. A large number of units are now in planning and Colonel Jones feels some 6,000 of these may reach the construction stage. Colonel Jones stated they were hoping to analyze the program and future charges to the Housing Resources Committee with Mayor Allen within a few days. Colonel Jones also commented on a joint meeting of the Housing Resources Committee with the Board of Aldermen's Planning and Development and Building Committees. The building codes of Atlanta were considered and Mr. Wofford, Building Official, was present. Mr. Wofforc felt that the codes of the City of Atlanta were sufficient to meet the needs that exist. The Housing Resources Committee has suggested that exceptions be made to the codes for specific needs. Mr. Wofford requested specific recommendations for changes or exceptions to the code be made rather than charges unsubstantiated by documentation. Accordingly, the Construction and Design Panel is now charged with examining the code - situation, and with working with contractors, developers and others to draft these recommendations and remain in communication with all concerned regarding this work. Mr. Cecil Alexander, Chairman of the Housing Resources Committee, stated that he felt the Model Cities Program is the keystone of our efforts and that he feels a major reason we have not as yet been chosen by HUD for experimental housing is because our codes are not liberal enough. He noted that a series of studies have been made by the Metropolitan Planning Commission and that Mr. Moore ( pres-iit at this meeting) is willing to help on this most technical subject.
