12.0 %
22.1 %
5.9 %
3.4 %
It had been recommended by the consultant and accepted by
the MARTA Board that Clayton and Gwinnett Counties would
not participate in the financing of the system until lines
were constructed in those counties, at which time they would
begin paying their appropriate share retroactively from the
beginning of the construction period.
Mr. Bennett said the consultants had worked with local governments to evaluate financial capabilities in light of long-range
capital demands and forecasts of ad valorem ta x digests , plus
other sources of income.
The next step would be meetings with
the major governments to explain the report and seek support
of it.

reshape blighted areas of cities. Washington officials had
recently e x pressed interest in having MARTA study the economic
impact, potentials, and issues of the system on Metropolitan
Atlanta.
Indication had been given that HUD would favorabl y
entertain an application for funds'to support such a stud y.

Mr. Rich suggested removing actual dates from the time and action
calendar, so that it would show the construction period in number
of years. Mr. Douglas said the 4% year period was feasible and
possible, but very optimistic. Mr. Rich commended Mr. Douglas

on the presentation.

Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates

Mr. Bennett reported for Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates on

the status of the economic study. He said the final report would
be submitted within thirty days. The Hammer firm had reviewed
methods of financing proposed in the 1962 study, and had investi-
gated all permanent methods, programs, and sources which might
realistically be available to finance capital costs. They had
examined all other systems in the country and had explored all
possible sources of finance - local, state, and federal. A
formula believed to be feasible and equitable for allocating
costs, using weighted indexes of population, property tax digests,
and employment for 1965 and 1985, had been developed, as follows:
City of Atlanta 56.6 %
Fulton County outside

the City of Atlanta 2.0 &amp;%
DeKalb County Zeki %
Clayton County 5.9%
Gwinnett County 3.4 %

It had been recommended by the consultant and accepted by

not participate in the financing of the system until lines
were constructed in those counties, at which time they would
begin paying their appropriate share retroactively from the

GENERAL MANAGER'S QUARTERLY REPORT OF CONTRACT STATUS,

JUNE 30, 1967

Considerable progress has been made under our several contracts

and a detailed review is timely. Our contractural obligations total

$962,566 of which $616,709 (64%) represents the federal portion and

$345,857 represents the local matching funds. The status of work shown

is as of May 31, 1967:

Ie

The "701" Contracts signed June 28, 1966 total $183,566 of which
the federal portion is $122,376. The local portion of Transit
Authority funds is $61,189, all of which has been paid to the
ARMPC who is administering the work for us. These projects are to
update the 1962 report in its entirety. The updated revisions
will appear as a technical version and a popular version of a
bound report similar in format to the 1962 reports. The work is
in three parts.
A. Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates has a $48,000 contract to up-
date the financing aspects which is 90% complete. It covers:
1. Methods of financing.
2. Sources of financing.
3. Derivation of formula for sharing the financial load
between the several political jurisdictions.
4. Assistance to local governments to evaluate their
financial ability.

5. Preparation of a financial plan in line with the above.
II.

B. PBTB has a $100,000 contract to update the other parts of the
1962 report which is about 85% complete. It covers:

1. Route and station locations (100% complete).
2. Patronage, revenues and operating cost predictions
(90% complete).
3. Report preparation (50% complete).

C. ARMPC will use the remaining $35,566 for administration and
supervision of the HGS and PB-T-B contracts, its own staff's
work and auditing and overhead chargeable to the entire
updating project.

Each of these units of work provides inputs to the others so they

will continue to move ahead on a common front and should be wrapped

up this summer. The contractural completion date was May 2, 1967.

The work was considerably delayed by the late development of

travel statistics by the Highway Department and the completion date

will not be met. The necessary statistics are now in hand and the

work is moving ahead at a good pace. Our total project will not

be damaged by the delay.

The "702" Contract signed June 28, 1966 is for $125,000 with PB-T-B

to carry out preliminary engineering work on the system from Ogle-

thorpe to the Airport. This is an interest-free federal loan that
must be repaid when construction begins. No local funds are in-
volved. The preliminary engineering work will be in sufficient
detail to enable us to initiate right of way acquisition, to pro-
vide us with highly refined estimates of construction costs, and
to provide us with a solid point of departure for the development
of final, detailed design and the preparation of contract plans
and specifications. Funds are requisitioned from HUD in the exact
amount required when we are invoiced. Two $30,000 requisitions

and payments have been made. The contract is 62% complete. It

we

have decided to integrate this work with the work being done under

the technical studies grant (below). As a result, all of the

preliminary engineering for the 44-mile system - Doraville-Forest

Park and west from Hightower Road to I-285 and east from Avondale

Estates to I-285 - is being done simultaneously, aimed at a com-

pletion date of April 30, 1968.

TIT.

The Technical Studies Grant (Section 9) Contracts are for a total
of $554,000 of which the federal portion is $369,333, and the
local portion is $184,667. Federal funds are requisitioned
quarterly in advance at a rate indicated by progress of the work
and the terms of the contracts. $67,686.12 has been requisition—
ed and received. One $12,000 payment has been made to ARMPC for
the Impact Study. I expect a bill from PBTB this month.

The work is divided into three parts:

A. PB-T-B has a contract signed February 2, 1967 for $500,000
which is 18% complete and covers:

1. System Extension Planning (35% complete):
(a) East Line — Avondale Estates to I-285.
(b) West Line - Hightower Road to I-285.
2. Preliminary Design of typical and of selected special
structures (20% complete):
(a) Structures.
(b) Stations.
(c) Equipment.
3. Preliminary Engineering Plans (30% complete):
(a) Base maps.
(b) Alignment of tracks,
(c) Station sites.
4. Cost Estimates (14% complete):
(a) Construction,
(b) Right of way.
5. Public Hearings and Reports (not started).

B. ARMPC has a contract signed March 10, 1967 for $49,000 to
make a Caxrridor Impact Study. $9,000 covers the supervision
and overhead they will provide to the subcontracts, Eric Hill
Associates, who will do most of the work of assessing the im-—

 —
IVs

pact of our proposed rapid transit system on the community.
We will receive recommendations for changes in community
plans or rapid transit plans in the event that adverse impact
or missed opportunities are discovered. The job is 35% com-—
plete.

The work will check on our relationships to:

1. and use and related controls.

2. Public improvements planning.

3. Urban design.

4, Local development plans.

5. Urban renewal projects.

6. Private development plans.

7. Benefit to disadvantaged groups.

8. Other public programs.

Our impact on the Atlanta Transit will be substantial and
$5,000 has been reserved to start studies in this field.
More money will be sought in future applications. I am
in touch with ATS officials to determine the character of

necessary study and plans.

The Retainer Agreement is a contract with PB-T-B for planning,

consultant, or engineering services not covered by existing

contracts. Each item of work is authorized and budgeted by

the Board. PB-T-~B cannot initiate any work under this con-

tract that will cause total charges under the contract to ex-

ceed $100,000.

�Financial Report
The General Manager presented the financial report as of May 31,
1967, which is attached hereto and made a part of these minutes.
Mr. Stuart commented that Gwinnett County was the only government in arrears on its commitments to the Authority. Income
from interest had been slightly less than anticipated because
less money had been invested, due to consultant payments having
been made. There were no q'u estions, and the financial report
was accepted.
Progress Reports
General Manager
A meeting was held at 2:00 o'clock immediately prior to the
regular Board meeting, for the purpose of hearing progress reports from the consultants. Engineers from Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel, Mr. Philip Hammer of Hammer, Greene, Siler
Associates, and Mr. Leon Eplan of Eric Hill Associates gave
detailed reports on rapid transit consultant contracts in force.
This was well attended by some 50 individuals, including local
consultants, planners, architects, etc. Mr. Stuart said this
would be a regular meeting each month, and it was hoped it would
serve as a tool for information and coordination of efforts
among the various governments and agencies concerned.
Mr. Stuart said Cousins Properties, Inc., in development of the
air rights in the gulch, had allowed SO-foot corridors between
columns as well as a Y track, to accommodate requirements of
the transit system. Liaison continued with Mr. Portman in the
development of Peachtree Center. Mr. Stuart had met with airport developers and with principals in the Nasher project, and
reported cooperation from both groups.

Mr. Stuart reported on a conference in Washington, D. C., on
May 22nd. The meeting was called by HUD, and was on design of
urban transportation. An exhibit had been prepared by MARTA

the e x hibit, and taped excerpts of addresses by Mr. Charles
Haar and others were presented .

�Mr. Stuart said Aldermen Cook and Griggs, Representative
Winkles, and others had recently toured the proposed transit
lines.
The General Manager announced that the Advisory Committee, discussed at the May meeting, had been formed, and was composed of
the following professionals from the principal design disciplines
in Atlanta:
Chairman - Professor Howard K. Menhinick
Richard L. Aeck, representing American Institute
· of Architects
Richard M. Forbes, representing American
Institute of Planners
H. Boyer Marx, representing American Society
of Landscape Architects
Roy J. Boston, representing American Society of
Professional Engineers
The purpose of this committee would be twofold:
(1) to provide
professional review of design work and (2) to discuss proper relationships between the several consultants. Mr. Stuart asked
for approval of an amendment to the 1967 budget, adding an expenditure item of $5,000 for fees to this committee. Mr. Haverty
made a motion that this amendment to the budget be approved, Mr.
Bishop seconded the motion, and it was unanimously passed.
Mr. Stuart and Mr. Huie had visited the State Department of
Industry and Trade. Mr. Huie felt contractual arrangements
could probably be made with the State for funds on a quarterly
basis during the first two years. The State had appropriated
$250,000 for the next two years, limited by the Constitutional
provision restricting the State's contribution to ten percent of
the cost of any one project.

interchange had been made. Mr. Coil said the firm had reviewed
architectural definitives and had four which showed concepts
for a transit center.
The Chairman recognized the importance of coordinating plans for
the transit lines to the airport, but cautioned the engineers
against too detailed plans at this time in view of the realistic
time lag on this line.
Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates
Mr. Philip Hammer reported that final figures for financing the
system would be completed within a few days. He said there had
been some changes in annual requirements which would more advantageously fit into a financial plan and the receipt of federal
funds. He mentioned a plan staging the development of the
system so that participation on the part of the outlying counties
would begin simultaneously with construction in those areas.
Other Business
The Board accepted the resignation of Mr. Robert W. Adamson as
Treasurer of MARTA. Mr. Adamson had been appointed as a member
to replace Mr. Mills B. Lane, Jr. At Mr. Adamson's suggestion,
the Board agreed to ask Mr. Herbert Dickson, Executive Vice
President of the C. &amp; S. Bank, to serve as Treasurer of MARTA.
The Chairman reported that Fulton County Commission would soon

Dear Mayor Allen:
Mr. Bob Sommerville, President of the Atlanta Transit Company, talked
to t he Nor th side Kiwanis Club th is noon. He presented to t he membership an i nterim p rogra m for the moving of mass transportation. I am
certain that you are familiar with this program so I will not go into
the details, but I believe it has a great deal of merit .
It' s a dvantages are cos ts, time to place in operation, and it' s flexibility. The bus as a complete unit gives this method quick mob ility
on or off the rapid expr ess rou t e .
I believe that if we could give this a good trial that it might result
in something revolutionary in the rapid transit program.
I wou ld like to go on record as endorsing this program to you and
offering any assistance to ini ti ate it.

Dear Mayor Allen:

Mr. Bob Sommerville, President of the Atlanta Transit Company, talked
to the North side Kiwanis Club this noon. He presented to the member-
ship an interim program for the moving of mass transportation. I am
certain that you are familiar with this program so I will not go into
the details, but I believe it has a great deal of merit.

It's advantages are costs, time to place in operation, and it's flex-
ibility. The bus as a complete unit gives this method quick mobility
on or off the rapid express route.

T believe that if we could give this a good trial that it might result
in something revolutionary in the rapid transit program.

I would like to go on record as endorsing this program to you and
offering any assistance to initiate it.

Sinéérely,

Dear Mr. Cunningham:

Yours of May Sth to Mayor Allen has been referred
to me for consideration.

We have under way now rapid trangit development in
Atlanta that is closing out the planning stage and starting
the preliminary engineering. Ahead of us is the heavy-duty
political job of selling the project to the public so that
public financing can be made available to us in sufficient
measure to permit us to get into detail final design. For
the immediate future I can offer you little encouragement
because we are keeping our staff very small and putting most
of our resources into the hands of our consultants. After
public financing is received, we will be in a position to
consider seriously people of your background because it will
be necessary to enlarge the administrative, engineering and
public information staffs. I do not foresee public financing
at this level during the current year, and only with a smash-
ing success can I even predict it for next year. In the mean-
while, I am very glad to have your resume and will keep it at
the top of my file which has been set up to show us the resources
that may be available when it is necessary to enlarge our staff.
I assure you that when the time comes we will give serious
consideration to your application.

With best wishes.

Sincerely yours,

H. L. Stuart,
General Manager.

Authority
SUBJECT:

·
Some Planning Principles and Non-Engineering
Aspects of Rapid Transit
I would like to set down here some of the basic philosophy which
has guided us in transit planning, and also to mention possibilities
for the future. Transit in Atlanta will be a tremendous influence;
it will be the biggest single factor in guiding growth in many parts
of the Metropolitan Area.
The Planning Commission concluded in 1960 that a balanced transportation system with transit would (1) help shape the pattern of
development of the region in a desirable and efficient way, and
(2) provide the necessary access to central Atlanta so that the
orderly growth of employment and business activity could take place
there.
The Planning Commission is concerned with serving the economic need
and shaping the metropolitan area. MARTA has been created primarily
to "build a railroad" in accordance with the generalized plan which
has been tested against planning factors. We have come to the engineering stage now. This is a time when cost estimates need to be
based on specifics. If the Planning Commission could have built a
railroad, we would not have needed MARTA.
As we make decisions on precise locations we are continuing to test
and re-test basic assumptions made earlier with respect to population growth , density, economic change , and many social factors.
Serving the disadvantaged people , the educational institutions , the
new centers of interest , such as the stadium , auditorium , and cul tural center , are of great concern to us at this stage . We are
�r~ -
aware of the opportunity we have for relating harmoniously all of
the exciting activities in the developmental stages in central
Atlanta, and upgrading the City's aesthetics and urban design.
These are non-engineering factors which are currently receiving
attention from planners.
The present work program of the staff of the ARMPC includes an updating of earlier regional land use plans.
In connection with
this we have developed statements of region a l goals related to
transportation. These are polic y statements. Th ey set up criteria against which transportation improvements can be measured .
For example, one section deals with aesthetic standards as follows :
"New or improved transportation facilities should be
located and designed so as to enhance the appearance
of the region, with appropriate regard to topography ,
soils, wooded areas and water bodies , as well as the
character of e x isting and projected man-made development."
Th e objective of a regional plan is to guide new growth into sensible patterns, and discourage extensively scatte red urban de v elopment which is wasteful of land a nd other resourc e s. Transportation
s y stems are the greatest single influence on deve lopm e nt.
Consequently, planners study the effects of any proposed transportation
improv ements, such as roads and highways of all categories and
transit, on future land uses.
Here are a couple of paragraphs from our polic y statement on the
pr e servation of neighborhoods a nd community v alu e s, a lso on pres e r v ing freedom of choice :
"Neighborhoods are considered the basic unit of resid ential community de ve lopment. They may be defined
in one or mor e of se ve ral way s : b y tr a di t ion, th rough
identification b y th e r e sid e nts , from obser ved patt e rns
of common a lity in ag e a nd ch a racter of d eve lopme nt , by
natur a l o r ma n-m a de ba rr i e r s, a s th e limits of local
trade or s er vice areas , a nd so forth
Whe re t hey c a n
be d e fine d, th e integrit y of sound or r e n e wable neighborhoods s hould be protect e d : ma jor tr a nspor t ation
art e ri e s sh ould be lo cated a nd design e d so a s to
bou nd , not penetrate , such a re a s . "
"Re sidentia l de v elopmen t a nd renewa l s h ould be pl a n ned
a n d c o nd ucted s o a s to make av ail abl e in e v ery sector
of the reg ion h ousing of a wid e r an ge o f t ype s and
c o s t , thus a llowi ng t he indi v i du al max i mum freed om to
choo s e where he wi shes to l ive . To enhance t h is fr ee d om of choice , all resident i a l area s s hould hav e comp a rab le acce ssib ility to a r ea s of emp l oyment , re c reati onal and c omme r cial acti v ity . Pub li c t r ansportation

�facilities should provide this comparable accessibility
for residents least able to depend on private transportation."
All of this ARMPC planning policy relative to transportation is consistent with the objectives of the H oU oD o programs.
Federal money
has improved and expanded planning all over the country; there's
no doubt about it. Atlanta can boast a little over having the
oldest publicly supported metropolitan planning agency in the United
States. Because of local initiative back in 1947 we ,have had metropolitan planning long before the feds got into the business.
Now ,
many cities have agencies something like ours, but because we had a
foundation of area-wide planning we could do a comprehensive transit
plan in 1961, a nature preserve plan in 1962, an airport plan last
year, code studies two years ago, and carry on many other activities
in the field of economic and social research. HUD knows this.
It
has a bearing on present transit work; the transit routes are a part
of the overall metropolitan plan and not independent and separate.
We are now working on area-wide water and sewer problems , capital
improvement programming, preparation for the 1970 census, and other
items in addition to MARTA non-engineering work. HUD knows this.
Sidelines include metropolitan training schools for police officers
and improved communications and records systems for law enforcement
agencies, to mention a few.
Let's look at Central Atlanta. This is a concern of ARMPC because
it's the h e art of the region.
It is the subject of much study by
the City of Atlanta in the community improvement plan (CIP } which
is aimed toward the establishment of priorities for redevelopment
of land all over the City. Now that Central Atlanta Progress , I nc.
is organized and well staffed, we have the opportunity to better
serve the original purpose of rapid transit with respect to downtown
interests, both private and public.
Growth and development occurs in Atlanta with or without public
planning.
Portman's Peachtree Center is far along; cousins' air
rights project is starting with an 8,000-car park ing facilit y ; the
Nasher Park Place 18-acre air rights project is under study by
architects, planners, and economists , and Georgia State College has
a big and significant expansion program . La ter this year contracts
are e x pected to be let for Georgia Plaza Park , a landscaped open
space with underground parking garage.
The State, Fulton County ,
and the City of Atlanta are cooperating on this venture which will
result in an attractive government - centered public park which will
upgrade the area near the Capitol .
Now we have the opportunity to coordinate all of these activities
and others , and create before long a central At lanta plan with both
short-range and long -range goals.
Transit is an integral part of
any downtown plan , and our present alignments of routes wi ll tie
together all the major developments mentioned above .
-

�A corridor impact planning study is now in progress, as you know.
It will show the relation of transit to low-income groups and their
economic and social needs.
Other considerations are the relation
of transit to educational institutions, vocational schools, community centers, and renewal projects. The transit corridors, the
lines of the system, will be pulsing and throbbing with growth and
our efforts to properly direct and control these dynamics must
never cease. Planners are now working with both private and public
agencies in an attempt to identify the many possibilities which the
transit corridors offer us for enhancing community values, serving
the largest number of citizens, and guiding development toward most
sensible and efficient patterns.
In our discussions with H.U.D. officials and when we talk to. our
transit visitors who will be in town next week, I think we ought
to keep some of these points in mind.
I want to take this opportunity, Dick, to e x press our gratitude to
y ou for the time and energy you are putting into this task, which
is at times extremely difficult and complex. Without your leaders h ip it would be much more so!

Here are a couple of paragraphs from our policy statement on the
preservation of neighborhoods and community values, also on pre-
serving freedom of choice:

“Neighborhoods are considered the basic unit of resi-
dential community development. They may be defined

in one or more of several ways: by tradition, through
identification by the residents, from observed patterns
of commonality in age and character of development, by
natural or man-made barriers, as the limits of local
trade or service areas, and so forth Where they can
be defined, the integrity of sound or renewable neigh-
borhoods should be protected: major transportation
arteries should be located and designed so as to
bound, not penetrate, such areas."

"Residential development and renewal should be planned
and conducted so as to make available in every sector
of the region housing of a wide range of types and
cost, thus allowing the individual maximum freedom to
choose where he wishes to live. To enhance this free-
dom of choice, all residential areas should have com-
parable accessibility to areas of employment, recrea-
tional and commercial activity. Public transportation
facilities should provide this comparable accessibility
for residents least able to depend on private transpor-
tation."

sistent with the objectives of the H.U.D. programs. Federal money

A corridor impact planning study is now in progress, as you know.
Tt will show the relation of transit to low-income groups and their
economic and social needs. Other considerations are the relation
of transit to educational institutions, vocational schools, com-
munity centers, and renewal projects. The transit corridors, the
lines of the system, will be pulsing and throbbing with growth and
our efforts to properly direct and control these dynamics must
never cease. Planners are now working with both private and public
agencies in an attempt to identify the many possibilities which the
transit corridors offer us for enhancing community values, serving
the largest number of citizens, and guiding development toward most
sensible and efficient patterns.

In our discussions with H.U.D. officials and when we talk to. our
transit visitors who will be in town next week, I think we ought
to keep some of these points in mind.

I want to take this opportunity, Dick, to express our gratitude to
you for the time and energy you are putting into this task, which
is at times extremely difficult and complex. Without your leader-
ship it would be much more so!

�The General Manager said he .was selecting a group of five
professionals from the fields of architecture, landscape
architecture, city planning, and engineering, who would comprise an advisory committee to the Authority for the purpose
of reviewing plans as the work moves from preliminary engineering into urban design. Mr. Stuart said the organizational
meeting of this committee would be held soon, and he would ask
for approval of an amendment to the budget at the next meeting,
to cover retainer fees for this committee.
It was announced that Mr. Robert L. Adamson, Treasurer of the
Authority, had been appointed a Director to fill the unexpired
term of Mr. Mills B. Lane, Jr., a City of Atlanta appointee,
who had recently resigned.
The General Manager asked for approval of an expenditure of
$2,000.00 for annual membership dues in the Institute for
Rapid Transit. He said the annual workshop was helpful and
provided an exchange of information with the eleven member
operating or emerging transit authorities in the country.
After discussion of the program of the Institute and the
benefits of such a membership, it was decided that the $2,000.00
annual dues could not be justified at this time. The annual
meeting of the Institute for Rapid Transit, to be held in
Atlanta May 24-26, will provide an opportunity for members of
the Board to observe its work.
Mr. Stuart showed slides of operating transit systems in
Montreal, Toronto and Philadelphia, having recently returned
from a trip to observe these systems. He said each system
had gotten started without federal aid. A comparison of the
systems pointed out continuing improvements in materials,
decor, maintenance, and technology.
The General Manager announced that the Department of Housing
and Urban Development was sponsoring a one-day meeting in
Washington on May 22, on design in urban transportation. At
the request of HUD, the Authority would provide an exhibit at
that meeting, showing plans and progress of the Atlanta system,
and Messrs. Stuart, Elliott and Nelson would attend. Mr. Rich
said this would be an important meeting, and requested all
members who could go to do so. Mr. Stuart had also asked the
newly formed Advisory Committee to attend.
Public Information Director
Mr. Elliott reported on his recent trip to San Francisco. He
had gathered information from the Bay Area Rapid Transit Dis trict to assist in the development of the Authority's public
-

�information program. A tentative outline of his findings
would be used in the Authority's planning for a bond referendum. He showed slides of the BARTD rapid transit system now
under construction in San Francisco.
Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor-Bechtel
Mr. Coil reported on a recent meeting with the Rapid Transit
Committee of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce at whi'ch time
this Committee was brought up to date on planning and engineering progress. Enlargements of recently acquired aerial
photographs were being assembled to support the Authority's
display at the Urban Design Conference in Washington on May 22.
Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates
Mr. Greene reported briefly for Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates and stated they were now receiving final cost estimates from Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor-Bechtel covering the
entire rapid transit system, broken down into five stages of
development. A complete draft copy of HGS's report would
soon be presented to the Authority and the Planning Commission
for review.
Mr. Bennett stated he had received approval from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to extend the completion date of 701 Project Ga. P-49 to August 2, 1967. The
extension of time had been necessitated because of a delay
in receipt of information from the State Highway Department.
The approval of the extension would permit all work to be
completed according to contracts.
The Chairman introduced Mr. Earl W. Nelson, newly employed
Chief Engineer for the Transit Authority, and welcomed him
on behalf of the Board.
Mr . Rich reminded the Board of the luncheon meeting on Tuesday,
May 9, at the Commerce Club, at which time representati v es
from the supporting governments would be brought up to date on
rapid transit progress in the metropolitan area . At this time
certain legislation would be discussed which the Authority
would seek to hav e appr oved in the ne x t session of the Gene r al
Assembly .
Inquiry was made regarding the r ecov ery of Mr. L. D . Milto n

of the Boar d that he would soon be completely r eco v e r ed a n d
back at his o f fice .

Progress Reports
General Manager

Mr. Stuart said studies were continuing on the feasibility
of an extension of the West Line to serve Six Flags Over
Georgia in Cobb County. It was believed that right-of-way
into this area would not be difficult to secure. It had not
been determined whether or not the patronage would make this
extension economically feasible, in view of the seasonal
nature of the recreation facility.
The General Manager said he.was selecting a group of five
professionals from the fields of architecture, landscape
architecture, city planning, and engineering, who would com-
prise an advisory committee to the Authority for the purpose
of reviewing plans as the work moves from preliminary engi-
neering into urban design. Mr. Stuart said the organizational
meeting of this committee would be held soon, and he would ask
for approval of an amendment to the budget at the next meeting,
to cover retainer fees for this committee.

It was announced that Mr. Robert L. Adamson, Treasurer of the

who had recently resigned. :

The General Manager asked for approval of an expenditure of

soon be presented to the Authority and the Planning Commission
for review.

Mr. Bennett stated he had received approval from the Depart-
ment of Housing and Urban Development to extend the comple-
tion date of 701 Project Ga. P-49 to August 2, 1967. The
extension of time had been necessitated because of a delay
in receipt of information from the State Highway Department.

Mr. Coil stated the contractor for aerial photography was continuing his work in connection with field measurements in order
to provide back-up information for photogrammetry. This work
is proceeding on schedule and PBTB expects to receive the first
completed work in about 3 or 4 weeks.
Patronage studies are
being processed in New York utilizing a computer. This data
is being incorporated into the patronage study here. Several
alternate means for transferring rapid transit cars on the EastWest to the North-South Lines has been considered. More study
is being given to this before making a recommendation in this
area. Mr. Coil said the Technical Coordinating Committee had
been briefed concerning the proposed rapid transit system and
that Planning Directors of the governments supporting MARTA
had been supplied with maps of the proposed system.
Initial
discussions with the various local governments is scheduled to
begin next week.
Preparation of text and supporting drawings
in connection with the report on the 701 Contract was proceeding and should be completed in approximately 6 weeks. Hammer,
Greene, Siler Associates are in the process of preparing certain aspects of this work which will be incorporated in the total plan. He stated that they had met with the City Consultant
on plans for construction at the airport and would continue to
consult with airport officials from time to time to keep abreast
of developments. Mr. Rich inquired as to the possibility of
running a spur of the transit line to the airport if the new
air terminal is not constructed within a reasonable period of
time. Mr. Coil said all possibilities for serving both the
airport and the surrounding community would be considered. Mr.
Haverty asked that consideration be given to the extension of
the West Line from I-285 across the Chattahoochee River into
Cobb County to serve the new amusement area, Six Flags Over
Georgia, if income derived from such a move would justify it.
Mr. Rich asked PBTB to give consideration to such a plan in
order to protect future right-of-way through the industrial
section in that area. He instructed Mr. Coil to meet with the
General Manager and report at the next meeting on the feasibility of a study to extend the West Line to Six Flags Over
Georgia. Mr. Blount said the Stone Mountain Authority had asked
about the possibility of extending the East Line to Stone Mountain and this should also be considered.
Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates
Mr. Garcia said they were currently assembling two final reports , the first being a segment of the joint 701 report pre pared by PBTB and HGS which will summarize their analysis,
consider potential sources of financing, and contain a formula
- 3-
�for distributing the local share of MARTA's costs to the five
counties and the City of Atlanta, allowing for the inclusion
or exclusion of local areas such as Cobb County. The second
report is a comprehensive compilation of HGS work materials
produced primarily for the benefit of MARTA and ARMPC staffs.
HGS's study of possible new sources of funds reveals that a
sales tax would produce the required volume of revenue, is
easily implemented and is efficient. He stated there had
been some discussion of a statewide sales ta~- distributed back
to local governments on a per capita basis. HGS is currently
analyzing the potential revenues from such a tax for the metropolitan area and will include these findings in the final report in addition to their estimates of the revenue from a
local option sales tax and other possible sources. Further
investigations are being made of the availability of potential
federal funds. Mr. Garcia stated their representatives would
like to meet with members of MARTA prior to putting together
their final analysis and report.
MARTA Award
Messrs. Rich and Elliott had returned during the meeting from
Jekyll Island where the Chairman had accepted the distinguished
meritorious award presented to the Transit Authority by the
Association County Commissioners of Georgia at their Annual
Convention April 2-4 at the Buccaneer Motel, Jekyll Island,
Georgia. Mr. Rich read the text on the Certificate of Appreciation to the Board. It is quoted below:

�Transit Line Tours
Mr. Blount said all members of the Board had not yet toured
the various transit lines and urged that they arrange to do
so at their earliest convenience.
Mr. Rich said it was important to begin planning now for any
legislation MARTA may require at the next session of the
General Assembly. Mr. Blount stressed the importance of
effective liaison between MARTA, county and city officials,
and the legislative delegations. He urged all MARTA Directors
to be in close and frequent contact with their respective
governmental and legislative leaders, discussing the plans

tain and this should also be considered.

Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates

Mr. Garcia said they were currently assembling two final re-
ports, the first being a segment of the joint 701 report pre-
pared by PBTB and HGS which will summarize their analysis,
consider potential sources of financing, and contain a formula
for distributing the local share of MARTA's costs to the five
counties and the City of Atlanta, allowing for the inclusion
or exclusion of local areas such as Cobb County. The second
report is a comprehensive compilation of HGS work materials
produced primarily for the benefit of MARTA and ARMPC staffs.
HGS's study of possible new sources of funds reveals that a
sales tax would produce the required volume of revenue, is
easily implemented and is efficient. He stated there had

been some discussion of a statewide sales tax distributed back
to local governments on a per capita basis. HGS is currently
analyzing the potential revenues from such a tax for the metro-
politan area and will include these findings in the final re-
port in addition to their estimates of the revenue from a
local option sales tax and other possible sources. Further
investigations are being made of the availability of potential
federal funds. Mr. Garcia stated their representatives would
like to meet with members of MARTA prior to putting together
their final analysis and report.

MARTA Award

Messrs. Rich and Elliott had returned during the meeting from
Jekyll Island where the Chairman had accepted the distinguished
meritorious award presented to the Transit Authority by the
Association County Commissioners of Georgia at their Annual
Convention April 2-4 at the Buccaneer Motel, Jekyll Island,
Georgia. Mr. Rich read the text on the Certificate of Appreci-
ation to the Board. It is quoted below:

"Association County Commissioners of Georgia presents
to, Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority, Certi-
ficate of Appreciation:

For its intergovernmental leadership and for the
progress it has made to provide the counties of
Clayton, DeKalb, Fulton and Gwinnett, and the

City of Atlanta, a fast, economical and comfort-
able transportation system. As befitting an inter-
governmental agency, its leadership is composed of
representatives of the involved governments dedi-
cated to the promotion of a common advantage. It
is under this kind of leadership, the ultimate

goal will be achieved.

Presented April 3, 1967 at 53rd Annual Convention at
Jekyll Island.

Signed Bruce Schaefer, President; Hill R. Healan, Execu-
tive Director."
Transit Line Tours

Mr. Blount said all members of the Board had not yet toured
the various transit lines and urged that they arrange to do
so at their earliest convenience.

Mr. Rich said it was important to begin planning now for any
legislation MARTA may require at the next session of the
General Assembly. Mr. Blount stressed the importance of
effective liaison between MARTA, county and city officials,
and the legislative delegations. He urged all MARTA Directors
to be in close and frequent contact with their respective
governmental and legislative leaders, discussing the plans

and needs of MARTA. A meeting with county and city officials
is planned for May 9, 1967.

Adjournment

The meeting was adjourned at 4:15 P.M.

 

W. Stell Huie
Counsel and Acting Secretary

NOTE: The next meeting of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid
Transit Authority is scheduled for Tuesday, May 2,
at 3:30 P.M.

which the federal portion is $122,376.
The local portion of
Trans i t Authority funds is $61,189, all of which has been
paid to the ARMPC who is administering the work for us.
These p r o j ects are to update the 1962 report in its entirety.
The updated revisions will appear as a technical version and
a popular v ersion of a bound report similar in format to the
1 962 r epor ts ~

It
covers:
1.
Route and station locations (90¾ complete).
2.

entire updating project.
Each of these units of work provides inputs to the others so

GENERAL MANAGER'S QUARTERLY REPORT OF CONTRACT STATUS,

MARCH 31, 1967.

Considerable progress has been made under our several con-

tracts and a detailed review is timely. Our contractural obli-

gations total $962,566 of which $616,709 (64%) represents the

federal portion and $345,857 represents the local matching funds.

The status of work shown is as of February 28, 1967:

Le

The "701" Contracts signed June 28, 1966 total $183,566 of
which the federal portion is $122,376. The local portion of
Transit Authority funds is $61,189, all of which has been
paid to the ARMPC who is administering the work for us.

These projects are to update the 1962 report in its entirety.
The updated revisions will appear as a technical version and
a popular version of a bound report similar in format to the
1962 reports. The work is in three parts.

A. Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates has a $48,000 contract

to update the financing aspects which is about 70% com-

plete. It covers:
1, Methods of financing.

2. Sources of financing.

3- Derivation of formula for sharing the financial
Lis

load between the several political jurisdictions.
4. Assistance to local governments to evaluate their
financial ability.
5. Preparation of a financial plan in line with the
above.

B. PBTB has a $100,000 contract to update the other parts
of the 1962 report which is about 70% complete. It
covers:

l. Route and station locations (90% complete).

2. Patronage, revenues and Operating cost predictions
(75% complete).

3, Report preparation (20% complete).

C. ARMPC will use the remaining $35,566 for administration
and supervision of the HGS and PB-T-B contracts, its own
staff's work and auditing and overhead chargeable to the
entire updating project.

Each of these units of work provides inputs to the others so

they will continue to move ahead on a common front and should

be wrapped up this summer. ‘The contractural completion date
is May 2, 1967. The work was considerably delayed by the
late development of travel statistics by the Highway Depart-
ment and the completion date will not be met. The necessary
statistics are now in hand and the work is moving ahead at

a good pace. Our total project will not be damaged by the

delay.

The "702" Contract signed June 28, 1966 is for $125,000 with

PB-T-B to carry out preliminary engineering work on the

=2-*
system from Oglethorpe to the Airport. This is an interest-
free federal loan that must be repaid when construction
begins. No local funds are involved. The preliminary
engineering work will be in sufficient detail to enable us
to initiate right of way acquisition, to provide us with
highly refined estimates of construction costs, and to pro-
vide us with a solid point of departure for the development
of final, detailed design and the preparation of contract
plans and specifications. Funds are requisitioned from WUD
in the exact amount required when we are invoiced. One
$30,000 requisition and payment has been made. The contract
is 44% complete. It covers:
A. Establishment of design basis by developing information

on: (65% complete)

1. Utilities.

2. Existing building foundations.

1. Base maps.

2. Alignment of tracks.

3. Station sites.
D. Cost estimates (not started):

2. Right of way.
The contract carries a completion date of June 30, 1967, but
we have decided to integrate this work with the work being
done under the technical studies grant (below). As a result,
all of the preliminary engineering for the 44-mile system -
Doraville-Forest Park and west from Hightower Road to I-285
and east from Avondale Estates to I-285 - is being done simul-
taneously, aimed at a completion date of December 31, 1968.
The Technical Studies Grant (Section 9) Contracts are for a
total of $554,000 of which the federal portion is $369,333,
and the local portion is $184,667. Federal funds are re-
quisitioned quarterly in advance at a rate indicated by
progress of the work and the terms of the contracts. $40,000
has been requisitioned and received. $20,000 of local funds
must be deposited to this account out of our next receipts.
I anticipate that we will be invoiced for parts of this work
in May, 1967.
The work is divided into three parts and contracts have just
been signed and work is just getting under way.
