The Agency will accept such proposal, if any,

the proposals, the Agency will consider the proposed price to be paid ·for the land; the compatibility of the proposed development to other

the excellence of the proposed design and the
quality of the overall planning of the proposed

used in evaluating proposals, are set forth in the enclosed sales brochur e .
Proposals f or the purchase and redevelopment of this property must be submitted at a public meeting to be held in the office of The Housing Authority

The Proposal must include a comprehensive development design of the entire
tract. Redeveloper must designate the residentiai and commercial areas to be
developed and submit with the Proposal its plans for the purchase and development
of these areas in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Invitation and the
proposed Agreement for Disposition of Land, and all other Disposition Documents.
Redeveloper must also designate the areas within the tract to be devoted to
education, recreation, and streets and utilities in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Invitation and the Disposition Documents. The result must be a
Proposal for an economically and socially balanced residential and commercial
complex which will blend well with the surrounding community.
The development design must provide specifically for the following:
HOUSING: Though the object is to serve a cross-section of social and economic
groups, the Redeveloper will be required to develop a substantial portion (at least
300 units) of the housing to units for families of the lowest income group. Building
types should be varied and include one to five bedroom units.
EDUCATION: The developer will be required to designate land in the area which
will be acquired and developed by the Atlanta Board of Education for the following
education facilities:
a. Two Primary School sites of three (3) usable acres each
located on either side of the expressway.
b. A Middle School of at least eighteen (18) acres of usable
land. This school may be reduced in size to twelve (12) acres
if it is located adjacent to the park.
RECREATION: The developer will be required to designate at least six (6) acres of
usable land, which will be acquired by the Atlanta Parks Department, for the
expansion of the existing park into a Neighborhood Park.
COMMERCE: The redeveloper may designate and acquire and develop a retail
commercial area(s) not to exceed six (6) acres of land primarily to serve the
residents of the tract here under consideration.
As provided in the attached Agreement for Disposition of Land this retail and
commercial area will not be conveyed to the Redeveloper until construction of a
substantial number of housing units has been commenced, as more specifically
designated in the Redeveloper's Proposal.
STREETS AND UTILITIES: The land designated in the Redeveloper's Proposal for
public streets which conform to the standards of the City of Atlanta, will be
acquired by others at no expense to the Redeveloper. Street improvements including
paving, sidewalks, and storm drainage and public utilities including water and
sanitary sewers will be installed within acceptable public rights-of-way at no expense
to the Redeveloper.

and a small amount of industry. Located near Atlanta Baking Company and Bostrum Brady
Manufacturing Company. The property is suited to a number of Industria l uses ... and its
location makes it highly desirable from an accessibil ity standpoint, as it is easily reached by
public transportation, or by main thorofares. Wel l located to quick ly serve the downtown

PRE-ESTABLISHED MINIMUM PRICE
FOR THIS PROPERTY
$16,500.00
Proposals for less than this amount cannot be
considered.
�In any Urban Redevelopment Area, no proposal
can receive consideration that contemplates an
unpermitted use. This assures good neighbors and
permanence of values. All proposals must include
a statement by the redeveloper showing financial
responsibility and capability to successfully complete the proposed improvements set forth in preliminary drawings and a narrative description.
These are carefully considered before a determination is made as to which proposal is to be
accepted. The Agency will accept such proposal,
if any, as it deems to be in the public interest and
in furtherance of the purposes of the Georgia
Redevelopment Law; however, no proposal for
purchase at a price less than the established
minimum price will be considered. In evaluatiug
the proposals, the Agency will consider the proposed price to be paid for the land; the compat
ability of the proposed development to other existing and planned improvements in the area; the
excellence of the proposed design and the quality
of the overall planning of the proposed development; and the size of the proposed development,
particularly as it relates to effect on the tax digest.
These tracts are in a protected area-this is fundamental to the whole basic concept of Urban Redevelopment.

The Emmaus House
1017 capitol Avenue, S.W.
Atlanta, Georgia
30315
December 3rd, 1968
Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor, City of Atlanta
City Hall
Atlanta, Georgia
Dear Mayor Allen:
Tenants United For Fairness (TUFF) is an organization
dedicated to obtaining fair treatment for the residents
of public housing in Atlanta.
Its members include public
housing tenants, other members of the low-income community
who have been or may be in the future tenants in public
housing, and other individuals who are sympathetic to the
goals of the organization.
As you will recall, TUFF selected the November 8th meeting
of the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment
Officials (NARRO) at the Marriott Motel to bring to the
attention of the public the d e plorable conditions of life
in the AHA projects. When a group of TUFF members appeared
before you at that meeting to seek your assistance in their
dealings with the Atlanta Housing Authority, you generously
offered your help and sympathy.
The purpose of this letter is to respond to your offer, and
to ask you to meet with us and to use the power and prestige
of your office to bring about a resolution of our conflicts
with the Atlanta Housing Authority .
As you know, our individual grievances are numerous, and~
to us, deeply distressing. They involve hundreds of
incidents including the AHA's arbitrary decisions to dig up
all of the gardens at Capitol Homes; they involve the fines
and rule s imposed by the housing authority in a manner that
seems to us unfair; and they involve a general atmosphere
of bullying and intimidation.
�Honorable Ivan Allen
December 3, 1968
--Page 2
We would not, however, seek to burden you with our individual
problems. We turn to you because the entire system of public
housing in Atlanta is operated in an arbitrary manner, without
any concern whatsoever for the rights, desires or legitimate
aspirations of the tenants. We turn to you for assistance in
making basic structural changes in the operation of the Atlanta
Housing Authority.
In brief, we would like to discuss the necessity for tenant
participation in the management of public housing, and the
necessity for a tenant review board or hearing panel empowered
to hear all tenant complaints and to review all decisions of
the local housing managers.
We are not alone in realizing the necessity for greater tenant
involvement in the operation of public housing, nor in recognition of the necessity for housing authorities to realize
that public housing residents have rights that must be protected.
As one example of the nationwide concern with these questions,
we have attached to this letter a copy of the questions posed
by NARRO to its November 8 Workshop, asking:
1.
How are The H..~A Social Goals Being Implemented in
Public Housing? and;
2.
What Does Tenant Participation Mean?
Many of the questions asked by NARRO point directly to the
abusive practices we seek to change. We have also attached
a copy of the proposed Bill of Rights For Public Housing
Tenants. This Bill of Rights was drafted by and has been
presented by The Housing Law Center of the Earl Warren Institute
to HUD for adoption. We believe that Atlanta can and should
l ead the nation by being the first city to adopt it as a guideline
for the AHA.
In light of the foreg oing, we the undersigned tenants of public
housing and members of TUFF request that you meet with our
representatives to discuss ou r problems. We also request that
you assist us by arranging for ou r representatives to meet with
representatives of the AHA so that our grievances and our
requests may be presented to them.
�Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.
December 3rd, 1968
--Page 3
we sincerely believe that many of our differences with
the Atlanta Housing Authority can be resolved through
frank and sincere negotiations. We seek the opportunity
for such negotiations at the earliest possible date, and
implore you to assist us in our endeavors.
Sincerely,

You might be able to tell if this is the right

Also, do we need to send copies to anyone?
Dan didn't indicate whether we should or
not. If we do, I'll need to ma_k e Xerox

Dear Eddie:
Thirty-one years ago the Atlanta H o using Authority was established to
provide for decent shelter for the less fortunate citizens of Atlanta.
Under the Authority leadership, the very first low-rent public housing
project in America was built - Techwood Homes. Since that time, AHA
has built and operated some 10,550 units. of public housing and has
'
almost 1, 587 units under construction for occupancy very soon.
At the same time, AHA has been the administrative arm for the City
of Atlanta urban redevelopment program. Like the public housing
program, the urban renewal program has long been recognized as one
of the most outstanding in th e United States.
No one can deny this fact!
The Atlanta Housin g Authority has been a moving force behind the
growth and development of this city.
Over the years sinc e the inception of AHA, we have seen staggering
changes in the economic, social and political face of Atlanta. AHA ,
like many other successful forces in the city, has been an agent for
much of this change. It has, in fact, undergone much change in itself.
Any organization which exists for any length of time builds up policies
and procedures which must undergo constant review and revision as the
environment in which it operates undergoes revision and evolution.
�Mr. Sterne
Page Two
March 6, 1969
The demands of the Tenants United for Fairness (TUFF) is a manifestation
of one of the most profound changes in our society of the last decade. The
rising expectations of the poor and forgotten for a bigger voice in the things
which affect their lives have united many individuals in hopes that the many
voices joined together will be heard.
The voices of these people might not always be right, but they must be
heard.
It is my thought that the best interests of all the city could be served by
a general public review of AHA policies and procedures and revision of
such policies and procedures where this might be necessary to protect
and satisfy the city as a whole.
I do not intend to imply that AHA is right or wrong in any way so far as
charges of TUFF are concerned. But I do feel that AHA, through its owh
initiation, might do everyone a great good by calling for a general review
of its operations.
This might be done by setting up a blue ribbon committee of AHA
commissioners, tenant representatives and leaders from the Chamber
of Commerce, Christian Council, League of Women Voters, etc.
Professional consultant help might also be brought in to assist such
a committee.
I realize such a step could be a painful experience.
it might be the less painful route in the long run.
At the same time,
I will appreciate your comments and thoughts.
Sincerely yours,

The present status of TUFF is as follows:
On January 16th, the Executive Board of TUFF had
a meeting with the Board of Commissioners of the Atlanta
Housing Authority, and presented to AHA a "Tenants' Bill
of Rights
a copy of which I have enclosed for your
convenience. There was only desultory talk about TUFF's
grievances, the principal issue TUFF presented to the
authority being the future and not the past. That meeting
concluded when the Authority agreed to "study" the proposed
Bill of Rights. When Mrs. Mandy Griggs asked Mr. Stern how
TUFF would have to wait for a response, Mr. Stern informed
her that he "hoped" to have a response "within six months"
but could make no promises.
11
,
On February 3rd, TUFF called a meeting of community
leaders to discuss tenants' grievances against the Atlanta
Housing Authority. The following organizations were represented at that meeting :
Good Government Atlanta
Southern Christian Leadership Conference
Metropolitan Atlanta Summit Leadership
Conference
Alpha and Omega Christian Church
Young Men On The Go

Approximately seventy peo ple were in attendance and at
the close of the meeting, Reverend B. J. Johnson recommended
that those present support the efforts of TUFF to obtain the
Tenants ' Bill of Rights they had requested1 and support TUFF
in any other way p ossible.
�Mr. John Robinson
Office of the Mayor
February 10th, 1969
Page #3.
The Motion was unanimously carried and the participants of the meeting then determined to have a mass meeting
on public housing property in order to test the housing
authority's decision to forbid TUFF the use of its community
centers.
The group agreed to meet late in F e bruary. The
leaders of TUFF and the leaders of the organizations
represented at the Fe bruary 3rd meeting are now making
plans for that mass meeting.
According to my most recent information, the Boards
of Directors of the f ollowing organizations have endorsed
TUFF' s Bill o f Rights and p l edged to s uppo rt TUFF:

find themselves at odds with legally constituted autho rity.
�Mr. John Robinson

The ,r igid and uncompromising position of the housing
authority, however, has now angered a large segment of
informed opinion in Atlanta. Anything your office can
do to assist my clients would be greatly appreciated.

\/Enclosure
P. S.
I have just learned from Mrs. Griggs, Chairman
of TUFF, that the housing authority has demanded
of her a substantial payment for "excess gas" and
has refused to accept her rent unless she is willing
to tender the excess payment.

The Proposal must include a comprehensive development design of the entire
tract. Redeveloper must designate the residentiai and commercial areas to be
developed and submit with the Proposal its plans for the purchase and development
of these areas in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Invitation and the
proposed Agreement for Disposition of Land, and all other Disposition Documents.
Redeveloper must also designate the areas within the tract to be devoted to
education, recreation, and streets and utilities in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Invitation and the Disposition Documents. The result must be a
Proposal for an economically and socially balanced residential and commercial
complex which will blend well with the surrounding community.
The development design must provide specifically for the following:
HOUSING: Though the object is to serve a cross-section of social and economic
groups, the Redeveloper will be required to develop a substantial portion (at least
300 units) of the housing to units for families of the lowest income group. Building
types should be varied and include one to five bedroom units.
EDUCATION: The developer will be required to designate land in the area which
will be acquired and developed by the Atlanta Board of Education for the following
education facilities:
a. Two Primary School sites of three (3) usable acres each
located on either side of the expressway.
b. A Middle School of at least eighteen (18) acres of usable
land. This school may be reduced in size to twelve (12) acres
if it is located adjacent to the park.
RECREATION: The developer will be required to designate at least six (6) acres of
usable land, which will be acquired by the Atlanta Parks Department, for the
expansion of the existing park into a Neighborhood Park.
COMMERCE: The redeveloper may designate and acquire and develop a retail
commercial area(s) not to exceed six (6) acres of land primarily to serve the
residents of the tract here under consideration.
As provided in the attached Agreement for Disposition of Land this retail and
commercial area will not be conveyed to the Redeveloper until construction of a
substantial number of housing units has been commenced, as more specifically
designated in the Redeveloper's Proposal.
STREETS AND UTILITIES: The land designated in the Redeveloper's Proposal for
public streets which conform to the standards of the City of Atlanta, will be
acquired by others at no expense to the Redeveloper. Street improvements including
paving, sidewalks, and storm drainage and public utilities including water and
sanitary sewers will be installed within acceptable public rights-of-way at no expense
to the Redeveloper.

The Emmaus House
1017 capitol Avenue, S.W.
Atlanta, Georgia
30315
December 3rd, 1968
Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.
Mayor, City of Atlanta
City Hall
Atlanta, Georgia
Dear Mayor Allen:
Tenants United For Fairness (TUFF) is an organization
dedicated to obtaining fair treatment for the residents
of public housing in Atlanta.
Its members include public
housing tenants, other members of the low-income community
who have been or may be in the future tenants in public
housing, and other individuals who are sympathetic to the
goals of the organization.
As you will recall, TUFF selected the November 8th meeting
of the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment
Officials (NARRO) at the Marriott Motel to bring to the
attention of the public the d e plorable conditions of life
in the AHA projects. When a group of TUFF members appeared
before you at that meeting to seek your assistance in their
dealings with the Atlanta Housing Authority, you generously
offered your help and sympathy.
The purpose of this letter is to respond to your offer, and
to ask you to meet with us and to use the power and prestige
of your office to bring about a resolution of our conflicts
with the Atlanta Housing Authority .
As you know, our individual grievances are numerous, and~
to us, deeply distressing. They involve hundreds of
incidents including the AHA's arbitrary decisions to dig up
all of the gardens at Capitol Homes; they involve the fines
and rule s imposed by the housing authority in a manner that
seems to us unfair; and they involve a general atmosphere
of bullying and intimidation.
�Honorable Ivan Allen
December 3, 1968
--Page 2
We would not, however, seek to burden you with our individual
problems. We turn to you because the entire system of public
housing in Atlanta is operated in an arbitrary manner, without
any concern whatsoever for the rights, desires or legitimate
aspirations of the tenants. We turn to you for assistance in
making basic structural changes in the operation of the Atlanta
Housing Authority.
In brief, we would like to discuss the necessity for tenant
participation in the management of public housing, and the
necessity for a tenant review board or hearing panel empowered
to hear all tenant complaints and to review all decisions of
the local housing managers.
We are not alone in realizing the necessity for greater tenant
involvement in the operation of public housing, nor in recognition of the necessity for housing authorities to realize
that public housing residents have rights that must be protected.
As one example of the nationwide concern with these questions,
we have attached to this letter a copy of the questions posed
by NARRO to its November 8 Workshop, asking:
1.
How are The H..~A Social Goals Being Implemented in
Public Housing? and;
2.
What Does Tenant Participation Mean?
Many of the questions asked by NARRO point directly to the
abusive practices we seek to change. We have also attached
a copy of the proposed Bill of Rights For Public Housing
Tenants. This Bill of Rights was drafted by and has been
presented by The Housing Law Center of the Earl Warren Institute
to HUD for adoption. We believe that Atlanta can and should
l ead the nation by being the first city to adopt it as a guideline
for the AHA.
In light of the foreg oing, we the undersigned tenants of public
housing and members of TUFF request that you meet with our
representatives to discuss ou r problems. We also request that
you assist us by arranging for ou r representatives to meet with
representatives of the AHA so that our grievances and our
requests may be presented to them.
�Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr.
December 3rd, 1968
--Page 3
we sincerely believe that many of our differences with
the Atlanta Housing Authority can be resolved through
frank and sincere negotiations. We seek the opportunity
for such negotiations at the earliest possible date, and
implore you to assist us in our endeavors.

Please read over the paragraph on the

circled the word on Dan's draft which I
wasn't sure of - I believe it is "Commissioners".
You might be able to tell if this is the right
word or not. I'm not sure!
Also, do we need to send copies to anyone?
Dan didn't indicate whether we should or
not. If we do, I'll need to ma_k e Xerox
copies before it is mailed.

Dear Eddie:
Thirty-one years ago the Atlanta H o using Authority was established to
provide for decent shelter for the less fortunate citizens of Atlanta.
Under the Authority leadership, the very first low-rent public housing
project in America was built - Techwood Homes. Since that time, AHA
has built and operated some 10,550 units. of public housing and has
'
almost 1, 587 units under construction for occupancy very soon.
At the same time, AHA has been the administrative arm for the City
of Atlanta urban redevelopment program. Like the public housing
program, the urban renewal program has long been recognized as one
of the most outstanding in th e United States.
No one can deny this fact!
The Atlanta Housin g Authority has been a moving force behind the
growth and development of this city.
Over the years sinc e the inception of AHA, we have seen staggering
changes in the economic, social and political face of Atlanta. AHA ,
like many other successful forces in the city, has been an agent for
much of this change. It has, in fact, undergone much change in itself.
Any organization which exists for any length of time builds up policies
and procedures which must undergo constant review and revision as the
environment in which it operates undergoes revision and evolution.
�Mr. Sterne
Page Two
March 6, 1969
The demands of the Tenants United for Fairness (TUFF) is a manifestation
of one of the most profound changes in our society of the last decade. The
rising expectations of the poor and forgotten for a bigger voice in the things
which affect their lives have united many individuals in hopes that the many
voices joined together will be heard.
The voices of these people might not always be right, but they must be
heard.
It is my thought that the best interests of all the city could be served by
a general public review of AHA policies and procedures and revision of
such policies and procedures where this might be necessary to protect
and satisfy the city as a whole.
I do not intend to imply that AHA is right or wrong in any way so far as
charges of TUFF are concerned. But I do feel that AHA, through its owh
initiation, might do everyone a great good by calling for a general review
of its operations.
This might be done by setting up a blue ribbon committee of AHA
commissioners, tenant representatives and leaders from the Chamber
of Commerce, Christian Council, League of Women Voters, etc.
Professional consultant help might also be brought in to assist such
a committee.
I realize such a step could be a painful experience.
it might be the less painful route in the long run.
At the same time,
I will appreciate your comments and thoughts.
Sincerely yours,

Dear Johnny:

The present status of TUFF is as follows:
On January 16th, the Executive Board of TUFF had
a meeting with the Board of Commissioners of the Atlanta
Housing Authority, and presented to AHA a "Tenants' Bill
of Rights
a copy of which I have enclosed for your
convenience. There was only desultory talk about TUFF's
grievances, the principal issue TUFF presented to the
authority being the future and not the past. That meeting
concluded when the Authority agreed to "study" the proposed
Bill of Rights. When Mrs. Mandy Griggs asked Mr. Stern how
TUFF would have to wait for a response, Mr. Stern informed
her that he "hoped" to have a response "within six months"
but could make no promises.
11
,
On February 3rd, TUFF called a meeting of community
leaders to discuss tenants' grievances against the Atlanta
Housing Authority. The following organizations were represented at that meeting :
Good Government Atlanta
Southern Christian Leadership Conference
Metropolitan Atlanta Summit Leadership
Conference
Alpha and Omega Christian Church
Young Men On The Go

Approximately seventy peo ple were in attendance and at
the close of the meeting, Reverend B. J. Johnson recommended
that those present support the efforts of TUFF to obtain the
Tenants ' Bill of Rights they had requested1 and support TUFF
in any other way p ossible.
�Mr. John Robinson
Office of the Mayor
February 10th, 1969
Page #3.
The Motion was unanimously carried and the participants of the meeting then determined to have a mass meeting
on public housing property in order to test the housing
authority's decision to forbid TUFF the use of its community
centers.
The group agreed to meet late in F e bruary. The
leaders of TUFF and the leaders of the organizations
represented at the Fe bruary 3rd meeting are now making
plans for that mass meeting.
According to my most recent information, the Boards
of Directors of the f ollowing organizations have endorsed
TUFF' s Bill o f Rights and p l edged to s uppo rt TUFF:

find themselves at odds with legally constituted autho rity.
�Mr. John Robinson

The ,r igid and uncompromising position of the housing
authority, however, has now angered a large segment of
informed opinion in Atlanta. Anything your office can
do to assist my clients would be greatly appreciated.

P. S.
I have just learned from Mrs. Griggs, Chairman
of TUFF, that the housing authority has demanded
of her a substantial payment for "excess gas" and
has refused to accept her rent unless she is willing
to tender the excess payment.

URBAN REDEVELOPMENT
PROTECTS THE FUTURE
OF YOUR INVESTMENT

In any Urban Redevelopment Area, no proposal
can receive consideration that contemplates an
unpermitted use. This assures good neighbors and
permanence of values. All proposals must include
a statement by the redeveloper showing financial
responsibility and capability to successfully com-
plete the proposed improvements set forth in
preliminary drawings and a narrative description.
These are carefully considered before a determina-
tion is made as to which proposal is to be accept-
ed. The Agency will accept such proposal, if any,
as it deems to be in the public interest and in
furtherance of the purposes of the Georgia Re-
development Law; however, no proposal for pur-
chase at a price less than the established minimum
price will be considered. In evaluating the pro-
posals, the Agency will consider the proposed
price to be paid for the land; the compatibility
of the proposed development to other existing
and planned improvements in the area; the ex-
cellence of the proposed design and the quality
of the overall planning of the proposed develop
ment; and the size of the proposed development,
particularly as it relates to effect on the tax digest.
These tracts are in a protected area - this is funda-
mental to the whole basic concept of Urban

Redevelopment.

Gentlemen:

We are attaching a sales brochure which gives the details of
this new offering of six fully developed single-family building
lots and one suitable for a duplex, in our University Center
Urban Redevelopment Area. The sizes and prices vary, dependent
on size and location.

Proposals for the purchase and redevelopment of one or more of
these lots are to be opened at 10:00 A. M. o’clock on March 20,
1969. If acceptable proposals for all of these lots are not
received, we shall continue to receive proposals and to open
them as received for a period of twelve months or until all of
the lots are sold. Proposals must be made on our forms which
are available upon request.

The pre-established sales prices as set forth in the sales
brochure are very reasonable and are the values that will be
attributed to the lots for FHA mortgage insurance purposes.

If you would like the proposal forms or need additional informa-
tion, please advise us.

Remember, we shall gladly pay a sales commission in accordance
with the schedule suggested by the Atlanta Real Estate Board.

Very truly yours,

URBAN REDEVELOPMENT :

PROTECTS THE FUTURE OF
YOUR INVESTMENT

 

In any Urban Redevelopment Area, no proposal
can receive consideration that contemplates an
unpermitted use. This assures good neighbors and
permanence of values. All proposals must include

 

a statement by the redeveloper showing financial
responsibility and capability to successfully com-
plete the proposed improvements set forth in
preliminary drawings and a narrative description.
These are carefully considered before a determina-
tion is made as to which proposal is to be accept-
ed. The Agency will accept such proposal, if any,
as it deems to be in the public interest and in
furtherance of the purposes of the Georgia Re-
| development Law; however, no proposal for pur-
chase at a price less than the established minimum
price will be considered. In evaluating the pro-
| posals, the Agency will consider the proposed
price to be paid for the land; the compatibility
of the proposed development to other existing
and planned improvements in the area; the ex-
cellence of the proposed design and the quality
of the overall planning of the proposed devclop-
ment; and the size of the proposed development,
particularly as it relates to effect on the tax digest.
These tracts are in a protected area - this is funda-
mental to the whole basic concept of Urban
Redevelopment.

We are attaching a sales brochure which gives the details of
this new offering of 6 fully developed multi-family building
lots in our West End Urban Redevelopment Area. The sizes vary
from 2 permitted units to 76.

Proposals for the purchase and redevelopment of one or more of

The pre-established sales prices as set forth in the sales

attributed to the lots for FHA: mortgage insurance purposes.

If you want the proposals forms or need additional information,
please advise us.

Re: Parcel 20

Motel Site

Gentlemen:

Since we sent you information on the above captioned motel
site, the shopping center site east of the Sears-—Roebuck
West. End Store has been sold for $515,000 to A. P. SS.» Inc.,
a local company that plans to spend a minimum of $2,400,000
on the development of an air-conditioned mall-type shopping
center.

We believe that this shopping center development will make
Parcel 20 even more desirable as a motel site and suggest
that you give consideration to its possibilities.

If you need any additional information or the forms for
making a proposal, please advise us.

Remember, we shall gladly pay a sales commission in accord-
ance with the suggested schedule of the Atlanta Real Estate
Board.

Very truly yours,

E LKFower

PROGRAM FOR URBAN EXECUTIVES -- JUNE 1969
EVALUATION
Re~ctions to the Program
Very . good overall. Some technical material ove~ my head
but pointed out what I must learn as a city administrator.
Very good.
material.
High calibre instructors, good quality class
Program is thought-provoking rather than practical in most
respects.
Exposure to modern management decision making and
financial concepts valuable in making me aware of their
existence.
Good, with some minor e x ceptions re. scheduling and timing priorities not always clear.
Impressed with learning new concepts which can be ·used in
making management decisions. Material and structure both
·excellent.
Worthwhile, generally relevant.
Very stimulating .and worthwhile experience.
· . very stimulating, extremely helpful and valuable.
Outst anding , although perhaps too much material made available
f o r only 4 weeks.
Excellent.
I gaine d a new insight into the possible solutions
of many o f our problems .
This has be en the most useful and enriching four weeks of educational
experience in mY memory. M.I.T. des erves the highest praise
for venturing into this new program and I sha ll always b e proud
of my association with M.I.T . and this program.
Very good, well-balanced.
In genera l, the program was excel l en t.
well planned , v ery wo r thwhile.
Well adm i nistered ,

Broadening, stimulating, provocative with resulting insights
not b~fore possible.
Especially liked computer-oriented work
and flexible attitude of staff.
I
I
Stimulating, broadly benef'icial as an introduction of application
of decision systems and technology to problems of cities.
Program content Was excellent, offering a wide exposure to
the yariety of disciplines represented by the group.
It provided a very good and most stimulating learning experience,
especially for a person like me who does not have the opportunity
of going back to school for a longer period.
Grateful for the opportunity.
I don't know of a better
investment of my time to enable me to help my organization.
I
Most stimulating and informative.
I believe M.I.T. is doing
a great service to local governments by providing such a
program.

lengthen to 5 weeks and eliminate weekend and
evening classes.
if possible to take the time from my work, one or
2 more weeks would be valuable
some people seemed tired by 4th week'
if any longer, would have to schedule a home break
alternative t o lengthening program - cut down readings
and some subjects
too short fo r amount of material·
only possible to be away from job for 4 weeks, but
could have stayed longer for information and content
additional week would help surer understanding of technical
subjects
add mor e computer time, shorten T-group.

no more than 20 to 24

Reactions to first week in Organization Behavior
Fabulous experience.
I'm very sensitive about people and our
T-group ,·sessions helped me calm down and get to know my fellow
executives better.
Irv Rubin - very fine.
A new experience for me.
Time well spent.
At first, I coultjn't tell what was happening. At end of
week it made some sense. Now I realize it has helped me
listen to the other guy.
Very helpful - (1) as a quick and deep development of community
among participants (2) as a t ra nsition between job and school
(3) as gene ra l learning experierice about self and group behavior.
At the time I felt too much time was being given to it; now I
feel that any less time would lose purpose of its objective.
It wili affect my job performance as much as any material received .

�Additional Comments
I am very grateful for the opportunity of being of part of
the M.I.T. Urban Executive Program.
I
There may have been too much material offered for the length
o{ the program as given.
Faculty should be better communications
and more familiar with government material.
Good' mix of geographic areas and work responsibility of
participants. Should add more blacks, and involve people from
so·cia i service areas.
My thanks to all members of the staff for a job well done.
More faculty interest and exchange of agruments needed.
I
Special tribute to directors of program - willingness to shift
schedules and respond to group's interests.
Faculty sympathetic,
understanding, and giving of their time.
Should provide a larger selection of reference reading material.
Build into the program a tour o f Boston featuring those aspects
which instructors use as examples.
The cou rsework fills a great void in updat~ng urban management
skills and techniques. Please continue.
Cities are heartened that top-level institutions, such as M.I.T.,
are a·ware o f urban problems and concerned with assisting in
their solution. Thus, urban managers should be better equipped
to take a b roader view, and be more amenable to new approaches.
v
I want to express my appreciation to members of M.I.T. and
Endicott House staffs for making the se 4 weeks a memorable
and rewarding experience.
Your program 8ould be an excel lent instrument to promote and
expand cooperation among faculty members and interest them in
collaborative work related to u r ban problems.
Lower tuition to under $1,000, to avoid t e chnicaliti es in
obt aining approval for application.

Reactions to the Program

 

Very good overall. Some technical material over my head
but pointed out what I must learn as a city administrator.

Very good. High calibre instructors, good quality class
material. ;

Program is thought-provoking rather than practical in most
respects. Exposure to modern management decision making and
financial concepts valuable in making me aware of their
existence.

Good, with some minor exceptions re. scheduling and timing -
priorities not always clear.

Impressed with learning new concepts which can be used in
making management decisions. Material and structure both
“excellent. :

Worthwhile, generally relevant.
Very stimulating and worthwhile experience.
Very stimulating, extremely helpful and valuable.

Outstanding, although perhaps too much material made availabl
for only 4 weeks. &lt;i

Excellent. JI gained a new insight into the possible solutions
of many of our problems.

This has been the most useful and enriching four weeks of educational
experience in my memory. M.,1I.T, deserves the highest praise

for venturing into this new program and I shall always be proud

of my association with M.I.T. and this program.

Very good, well-balanced.

In general, the program was excellent. Well administered,
well planned, very worthwhile,
Broadening, Stimulating, provocative with resulting insights
not before possible. Especially liked computer-oriented work
and flexible attitude of staff.

Stimulating, broadly beneficial as an introduction of application
of decision systems and technology to problems of cities.

Program content was excellent, offering a wide exposure to
the variety of disciplines represented by the group.

It provided a very good and most stimulating learning experience,
especially for a person like me who does not have the opportunity
of going back to school for a longer period. '

Grateful for the opportunity. I don't know of a better
investment of my time to enable me to help my organization.

Most stimulating and informative. I believe M.I.T. is doing
a great service to local governments by providing Such a

Terrific! Lab provided essential unifying factor for the
group. Its effects could be observed throughout the following
3 weeks. :

Cannot make up‘my mind whether one full week is best use of time
for a short program. In any event, the "community game" was
most effective and should be continued.

I may change my mind later, but I think now other parts of
program should be given more time in place of lab.

Trainers both good people, but I found my own group's
experience not particularly helpful for me. The "community game"
Simulation was, however, a beneficial exericse.

My first reaction was very negative. Now I believe it was the
most important part of the program. More advance information
and reading would have greatly increased the value of the

This is a unique part of the program and should be retained.
Very meaningful and individually helpful. Group able to
relate more easily.

The unstructured nature of the lab made it at first mystifying.
As it developed, I understood better its significance. Perhaps
more lectures on behavioral science applicable to city
management would be useful. :

A unique experience for which I was unprepared. It made me |
more aware of other people's feelings. I think its objectives
could be achieved in 3-4 days, leaving time for a tour of the
city and learning of its problems, reading, etc.

Unfortunately, I was not here for the first week. I have
learned from the others that I missed a most, if not the most,

Excellent. In my opinion the first week's activities made

Additional Comments

 

I am very grateful for the opportunity of being of part of
the M,1I.T, Urban Executive Program.

There may have been too much material offered for the length
of the program as given, Faculty should be better communications
and more familiar with government material.

' Good mix of geographic areas and work responsibility of
participants. Should add more blacks, and involve people from
social service areas,

My thanks to all members of the staff for a job well done.
More faculty interest and exchange of agruments needed.

Special tribute to directors of program - willingness to shift
schedules and respond to group's interests. Faculty sympathetic,
understanding, and giving of their time.

Should provide a larger selection of reference reading material.

Build into the program a tour of Boston featuring those aspects
which instructors use as examples.

The coursework fills a great void in updating urban management
skills and techniques. Please continue.

Cities are heartened that top-level institutions, such as M,I,T.,
are aware of urban problems and concerned with assisting in
their solution. Thus, urban managers should be better equipped
to take a broader view, and be more amenable to new approaches.

I want to express my appreciation to members of M,1I.T, and
Endicott House staffs for making these 4 weeks a memorable
and rewarding experience.

Your program could be an excellent instrument to promote and
expand cooperation among faculty members and interest them in
collaborative work related to urban problems.

Lower tuition to under $1,000, to avoid technicalities in
obtaining approval for application.

Dear Piet ’

Of the 20 participants who attended the 2nd M.I.T.
‘Program for Urban Executives we received 19 resporses.
These have been consolidated and I enclose a copy. I
“thought you would like to have a picture of the group's

reaction,

.

I'm happy to say that we will be going ahead ona
regular basis with this pregram, There will be a program
offered this coming January and another one next June.

_I hope that this gives you sufficient time for you

and your cojleastes to plan a noriination for January or
—qine - or both. “T°Say vOrh Heécanse we are convinced i

that the maximum impact from this kind of education will

come from having a group of people working together who

have attended the program. Tney will tend to support

and reinforce one another - to share a conmon language

and even a sort of shorthand, We strongly believe that

having 5 people in the same working group, who have been:

to M.1.7., is considerably greater in effectiveness - than

5 times 1.

é

We will keep the total fee below the $1,000 level

and 1 do want to go ahead and invite some executives from

industry who work with cities - and whose tigher tuition

would contribute towards covering the cost of the progran,
i

| If you have any suggestions about any particular person
whom you think should be invited to attend, I would be
pleased to follow-up on it. J plan to contact companies
like Avco, GE, Westinghouse, etc.

' J'm sorry to have to inform you that Polly Karb has
gone into the hospital for an operation. We are all

‘hoping that she will come through it all quickly and

easily.

Our warmest and fondest wishes.

-Sincerely,

by and let us know if we can be of any service to them.

Several residents came in during the past week to see if we could tell
them when they would hear from the Atlanta Housing Authority. In checke-
ing we found that some of the residents hadi not filled out an application
even though they had been to the referral center previously. this was
due to the fact that Mr. McGill from the Atlanta Housing Authcrity did
not process any applications during the twce days he was present at the
center,

A representative from F.H.A. did come on Thureday, August 7, 1969.
Several residents did come in to talk with this representative, however, —
the consensus was that must residents preferred to rent with the option
to buy later, if they so choose. It is felt that the information given
by this repzesentative was reccived favorably by the residents.

with the Mill Village project, are highly satisfactory, however, much to his
disappointment, the Relocation Housing Office of the Housing Authority
(Mr. Howard Grisby) has not provided any lists of firms to contact, information
or assistance for relocating families in private enterprise rentals or sales
housing. Further that Mr. Grisby stated that his office keeps no information
on sources for relocation, other than Public Housing. Mr. Hess advises
that his s taff has had to refer exclusively to newspaper ads and direct contact
with Atlanta Real Estate Board to gather information on pas sible sources of
private rentals or sales and prevailing prices.
It was my understanding, when in 1964 the City contracted with the
Housing Authority to establish a Central Relocation Housing Office to perform
relocation services on a city-wide basis (in a ddition to Urban Renewal areas,
which responsibility they already had) for families displaced by Governmental
action, that they were to include a ll available sources of private enterprise
housing, in addition to Public Housing facilities. This is exactly what the
R e locatio~Housing Division of the Urban Renew al Department (only 3 people)
were doing when the city -wide relocation function was turned over to the

I came to that conclusion when I found out that the Housing Relocations Office
did not have a list of low and moderate incom~ housing developments under the
low-income housing program. I asked Mr. Grisby about this at the time and he
told me that they did not have a list of the various projects shown in the HRC
periodic progress rep-orts, but that his staff knew pretty well which ones they
were and how to get in touch with them.
As a result of that experience, I then personnaly sent Mr. Satterfield
a complete list of all the low-income housing projects, explaini,ng that it was
for use by the Reloc ation Housing Office. Apparently that idea didn 1 t take.
Furthermore, the recent experience with the J. P. Stevens and

for operating a central relocation facility should provide not only utilization
of a ll sources of housing available, but
should also include relocation
assistance, when needed, for any reasons whatsoever, a nd not limited to
displacement by Governmental action only.
