Atlanta, Georgia 30314 Dear Mr. Thomas: Thank you very much for your letter of September 15th. Iam grateful for your chairmanship of the coordinating committee, and I am certain that this will be an outstanding example of cooperative planning and action, In answer to your first question concerning the list of names in the news releases; the full committee per the attached list was submitted to the news media. The news media then mades their own determination as to how extensive an article will be and, apparently, did not deem it necessary to list all the members of the committee. This letter confirms the attached list which you submitted and which the city accepts as a representative group. In answer to your second question, I am sending a copy of the letter to Alderman Cook and Mr. Gladin, asking them to confer with you as to the date and arrangements for the type of meeting you suggest. With appreciation for your efforts, Iam Sincerely, Ivan Allen, Jr. IAI r:am Encl.  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

GLADIN, Director September 26, 1967 Mc, Charles Davis, Comptroller City of Atlanta Atlanta, Georgia Dear Charles: Re: Visit of Toronto and Montreal Transit Systems. In my efforts to seek involvement on the part of many of the aldermen as it relates to rapid transit planning, I em continually confronted with the feeling that rapid transit is seven to ten years away and there is no need for immediate concern, While this system has been in various stages of planning since 1962 the planning phase will soon be over and the citizens of Atlanta will be faced with a decision to approve or disapprove a bond issue for construction. By Spring of 1968, most of the planning will be complete, at least the detail alignment and station locations, By that time many of our policy makers should have seriously evaluated the system and the impact on the corridor through which it passes. Atlante has the most to gain or lose through the proper planning of a total transportation system, The policy makers of this city will shoulder a large part of the responsibility to insure the passage of a bond issue to pay the city's share for transit which is to be held thirteen months from now, in November 1968, The Planning and Development Comittee has been reviewing the progress of MARTA and their consultants. They have ridden the entire alignment and discussed the possible impact on adjacent properties, station locations and their accessibility, Alderman Cook has attended transit meetings in Washington and visited the west coast system, which brings me to the point of this request, Alderman Cook, after discussing the Toronto and Montreal transit systems with consultants and others who have visited these systems, has asked that I request funds for he and I to visit both of these cities in order to have a firet hand knowledge of their planning progrems and transit system design. Both of these cities transit programs ere unique in design and represents some of the best Mr. Charles Davis -2- September 26, 1967 examples in the world of the tremendous development attracted to transit corridors and the controls that have been used to guide this development, For these reasons, I would like to request that funds be made available in the amount of $665.00 to visit these two Canadain cities between the 10th of October and 15th of October, (See attached Schedule F).

However, unless we are able to record and document what action has been taking place and complete at least an annual review of progress with updating of our facts and figures, I am afraid the CIP will have missed its mark. I think that we also should give careful consideration as to exactly what we want the Housing Resources Committee to do - how big an operation you want to make out of it. I think the same thing holds true for every other quasi-governmental authority or agency that has been set up in the City, particularly the Atlanta Youth Council and the Community Relations Commission. It might be wise for a special committee of the Board of Aldermen to take a good look at these agencies before the budget is finalized this year. I do not mean to imply that they should be cut out or cut back. It might be decided that they are woefully underfinanced. My concern is that we all know exactly what the purpose of these agencies is and more importantly that those people who run these agencies know what the City expects of them and if we are going to continue the operation they should be given the tools with which to operate according to the wishes of the Mayor and Board of Aldermen .

Earl Landers 13th, I think that recent statements by the Mayor will answer your question as to a possible bond issue in 1968, As to the matter of seeking State legislation enabling us to isaue general obligation bonds without a referendum, I offer the following confidential opinion: I think it would be a mistake for such legislation to be approved as a Constitutional amendment for Fulton County for the reason that this would put Fulton County in a position to issue general obligation bonds contrary to our wishes and to the detriment of the citizens inside the City | of Atlanta, without those citizens having an opportunity to | | | | Pardon my delay in answering your memorandum of September | ! | approve such an issue. I refer specifically to possible sewer issues by Fulton County. We have discussed many times the fact that it would be extremely unfair for Fulton County to finance ite portion of needed capital improvements in the area f | of water pollution control by the issuance of general | obligation bonds, 80% of which would be paid by the citi- | zens of Atlanta, while those same Atlanta citizens are paying sewer service charge to pay the City's pertion for such capital improvements. Under the present setup, Atlanta citizens would at least have the opportunity to disapprove the issuance of such bonds. I think we should make every effort to defeat thie Constitu- tional amendment for Fulton County, and if we should assume this position, we dould hardly at the same time ask for such legislative approval for the City.
