In the past few days I have uncovered two pieces of property that could very well be developed into useful and attractive playlots. One is a property already dedicated to the Parks Department in the West End Urban Renewal area located at White Street and Rose Circle. The other is located in the Lincoln Homes area which would be dedicated to the City if develop- ment was assured. Thus, no land costs would be involved, and if spare funds were left over after development, maybe a less expensive property could be bought such as the Peoples Street property, tentatively appraised at $6,000.00. We have already received requests to develop the first two as they would serve heavily populated neighborhoods. As I previously mentioned, we would endeavor to design and construct the playlots to serve as models for a future city- wide playlot construction program, including such items as landscaping, hard surface courts, lighting, as well as protec- tive walls or low fencing where playlots abut streets. We are really anxious to design and build some playlots where we are not hamstrung for lack of funds. May I have your opinion concerning the above. Sincerely, Ve A. P.

Brindley Parks Engineer Department of Parks City of Atlanta Atlanta, Georgia 30303 Dear Mr. Brindley: I have in hand a copy of the R & G Construction Company to you dated August 25, Without restating the contents of th the whole reference to paragraph 3 thereof which reads 4 rains Aifeady this i I realize that this is abnomel but mctinue to re-plent these areas due to an Ac W) turf has been established in these areas : SCiesting dese ont gseeur Gintn Semk, ¢ think biex grass to eventually cover these areas.

In either event, Se on ag pew Stehas oie cratatiens Loman aad  To begin with, I have before me the contract between R & G Construction Company and the City of Atlanta dated November 25, 1968, which covers the subject matter of the letter. The contract is silent on the specific subject of the inquiry raised in the letter, although certain portions of the general conditions (paragraphs 11, 12, 17, 18, 20 and 22) support the proposition that the Contractor is entitled to no additional compensation. Inasmuch as there are no Georgia cases specifically on the point, we must refer to the general law to determine whether or not the facts set forth in the letter are sufficient to either (1) authorige the Contractor to take the position that there is an impossibility of performance of (2) to authorize additional compensation for the Contractor, To begin with, ". . . (1)t hae generally been deemed clear that any unprecedented flood or sudden inundation which no human power could stay and no foresight or prudence could anticipate is an ‘act of God.’ * 1 Am Jur 2d p. 680. Therefore, there is some question in my mind as to whether or not this is in fact an act of God, Im addition to the above general proposition of law, there is another legal proposition which I feel is presented in this case and which answers the question adversely as to the position of the Contractor. This proposition is as follows: “The question whether nonperformance is excused or the person who must bear the loss where parformance has been made more difficult or expensive by an act of God must be distinguished from the question whether nonper- formance is excused where performance is made impossible by such cause. Where an dnconditional contract is te do a thing which is poesible in itself, the nonperformance is not excused by an act of God, Performance of an express contract is not excused by the occurrence, after the contract was made, of an unforeseen event beyond the control of the contracting party except when the unfore- seen event renders performance of the contract impossible. Accordingly, even in a jurisdiction where an act of God may excuse the nonperformance of a contract, it must appear, to bring the case within that principle, that the thing to be done cannot by any means be accomplished." 1 Am Jur 2d p. 684. I am answering this question in a legal context; however, I feel that there might be some area here for equitable adjust- ment. To this end, I am requesting that you contact the architect, lay the problem before him and ask him what normally is done in similar circumstances, If I can be of any further assistance to you in this matter, please feel free to call upon me. I return herewith the contract above referred to, Very truly yours, Te Thomas F, Choyce Associate City Attorney TFC/ip ce: Jack C.

We seek constructive involve- ment in the affairs of government and through this "political rally" we hope to stress the importance of this years mayor's race. By exposing the general public to the candidates we feel as if we will be serving our city by encouraging more citizens to vote, and hopefully for the can- didate that can best serve Atlanta, as you have so ably done during the past eight years Mayor Allen. I am chairman of the Jaycee's Political Rally Committee, and re- sponsible for the "rally" I have been discussing. I would like very much to have the opportunity to discuss with you at your convenience this affair for the mayoralty election, and also a governmental liason effort that our Governmental Affairs Committee is in the process of or- ganizing. Your thoughts and ideas would be very valuable to us Mayor Allen, and we solicit them. Respectively, / Oe ly Alfred K.

We are working under virtually emergency conditions attempting to meet the critical recreation needs for the summer here in Atlanta.

This is to in no way to suggest that I don't look with favor upon your request. My maintenance superintendent however, is quite concerned as to whether or not once we beautify this particular location if we will be called upon to renovate all the vacant properties which are pending development as part of the Stone Mountain Freeway. Our cwews are very limited and we must assign priorities to every project undertaken.

It is a beautiful park,- if you look heavenward and see all the gorgeous trees. But if you look on the ground or at the edges of the lake, the aspect is revolting. I wish you had taken a walk around the lake yesterday as I did. “America the Beau- tiful": is that a laugh! But it could be beautiful, Mr. Mayor, just as our government reservations and many foreign countries are. The difference hinges on one little word: DISCIPLINE. For goodness sake get our park policemen trained to catch the pigs in the act of desecrating our recreation areas and see that some worth-remembering stiff fines are meted out. If there is any resistance let the police know they'll be backed up if someone is hurt.
