KEL L Y TELEPHONE 4 0 4 / 521-\200 Honorable Ivan Allen Mayor City of Atlanta City Hall Atlanta, Georgia 30303 Dear Ivan: I am wondering if you plan to appoint someone in the near future to fill the vacancy · on the Atlanta Housing Authority Board brought about by Frank Etheridge's untimely death. If so, I should like to suggest consideration of my partner, Herbert Ringel. I have discussed this matter briefly with Herbert, and frankly do not know if he would be willing to serve even if you felt he should be appointed. I do know, however, that Herbert is unusually well qualified for this position. Herbert moved to Atlanta from Brunswick in 1946 and joined our firm, after serving as a Naval officer in the Pacific. While in Brunswick, he had worked very closely with the Mayor in organizing the Brunswick Housing Authority and was its first attorney. He also had served as Regional Attorney for the Public Housing Authority and thus is quite knowledgeable in most phases of governmental and municipal housing. Perhaps you are aware of Herbert's acute interest in religious, cultural and community affairs and of his service as President of The Temple and as past President of B'Nai B'Rith and the American Jewish Committee. His activities, of course, included many other areas of leadership with the Junior Chamber of Commerce, Community, and many other involvements. �Honorable Ivan Allen September 29, 1969 Page Two I thought I should bring his name to your attention since I felt it was rare ·to have someone with his background in housing who might be available to fill this vacancy. I will be glad to discuss this matter further with you if you care to do so. Warm regards. AWS/c � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.

SMITH, SR. 1861-1925 THEODORE A.HAMMOND 1861-1932 VICTOR LAMAR SMITH 1887-1947 ESTES DOREMUS 16864-1950 R.E.LEE FIELD leee-962 OF COUNSEL WILLIAM J. WADE EDWARD S. KELLY TELEPHONE 404 / 521-1200 I am wondering if you plan to appoint someone in the near future to fill the vacancy on the Atlanta Housing Authority Board brought about by Frank Etheridge's untimely death. If so, I should like to suggest consideration of my part- ner, Herbert Ringel. I have discussed this matter briefly with Herbert, and frankly do not know if he would be willing to serve even if you felt he should be appointed. I do know, however, that Herbert is unusually well qualified for this position. Herbert moved to Atlanta from Brunswick in 1946 and joined our firm, after serving as a Naval officer in the Pacific. While in Brunswick, he had worked very closely with the Mayor in organizing the Brunswick Housing Authority and was its first attorney. He also had served as Regional Attorney for the Public Housing Authority and thus is quite knowledgeable in most phases of governmental and municipal housing. Perhaps you are aware of Herbert's acute interest in religious, cultural and community affairs and of his service as President of The Temple and as past President of B'Nai B'Rith and the American Jewish Committee. His activi- ties, of course, included many other areas of leadership with the Junior Chamber of Commerce, Community, and many other involvements. Honorable Ivan Allen September 29, 1969 Page Two I thought I should bring his name to your attention since I felt it was rare to have someone with his background in housing who might be available to fill this vacancy. I will be glad to discuss this matter further with you if you care to do so. Warm regards. Sincerely, AL W.

C. Waddell in the Housing Code Division has a complete file on the subject, including photographs of the property which indicate that the improvement was badly deteriorated and appeared to be unusable. It was a small brick warehouse type structure. The In Rem proceedings started back in 1967. A public hearing was held on June 28, 1967 at which Mr. LeCraw was present representing the owner . He requested more time to correct the deficiences of the property. After the hearing, a letter was sent to the owner of record (Mr. Le Craw signed the registered mail receipt) giving him 90 days to either correct the deficiences existing in the building or demolish the structure . Later that year, on Novemb er 22, 1967, the owner took out a permit to demolish the structure. No action was taken, however, and the permit was allowed to lapse. There is som e correspondence in the file b etween the Building Departm ent and Mr. LeCraw regarding the ownership of the property. Ther e seemed to be some question as to the owner of record. A Mr. Jack Fagan is involved , but it s eems that Mr. LeCraw represented either Mr. Fagan or whoever was designated as owner whenever the City took any action on the matter. Investment Holding Corporation of which Mr. LeCraw is President was finally designated owner of record. When it was evident that the owner was not going to take any action on the structure , the City instituted its regular in rem proceeding. The Ordinance was passed on January 17, 1968. A contract was let on October 23, 1968 and it was demolished in November of 1968 . A lien was entered on the record in the amount of $485. 00 plus interest. �Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. Page 2 July 24, 1969 Mr. Le Craw's statement that the City went out to the place "without his knowledge" is hard to explain in view of what is in the file_. It could be that he thought he was due some additional notice prior to the time that demolition began in view of the time lapse since the hearing was held, notice was sent, etc. In my view, this is a pretty air-tight case and there is no apparent evidence that the Building Department did not act in accordance with their established policies and in accordance with what is expected of them.

A Mr. Jack Fagan is involved, but it seems that Mr. LeCraw represented either Mr. Fagan or whoever was designated as owner whenever the City took any action on the matter. Investment Holding Corporation of which Mr. LeCraw is President was finally designated owner of record, When it was evident that the owner was not going to take any action on the structure, the City instituted its regular in rem proceeding. The Ordinance was passed on January 17, 1968. A contract was let on October 23, 1968 and it was demolished in November of 1968. A lien was entered on the record in the amount of $485.00 plus interest. Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. Page 2 July 24, 1969 Mr. LeCraw's statement that the City went out to the place "without his knowledge" is hard to explain in view of what is in the file. It could be that he thought he was due some additional notice prior to the time that demolition began in view of the time lapse since the hearing was held, notice was sent, etc. In my view, this is a pretty air-tight case and there is no apparent evidence that the Building Department did not act in accordance with their established policies and in accordance with what is expected of them.
