Appendix "D"
NON-PROFIT SPONSORED NEW HOUSING UNDER 221(d)(3)
This program was authorized by section’ 22i(d)(3) of the Housing
Act of 1961.
It was intended to produce housing for those who are too poor
to rent or buy standard housing but not poor enough to be admitted to
public housing.
The non-profit sponsor of a 221(d)(3) project obtains FHA
approval of the project,
including a land appraisal and approval of the
uilding plans. The FHA
oC
agrees to insure the construction advance at
100 percent of value for
non-profit associations.
The sponsor obtains a commitment from the Governmental National
Mortgag
e Association (GNMA) to provide permanent mortgage financing for
12 com
pleted project.
The sponsor pays a one percent fee to GNMA for this
commitment.
The sponsor borrows money. from-a private financial institution
to pay for the construction of the project.
The construction loan is
short-term and bears interest at the market rate.
When construction is completed, GNMA pays off the construction
loan of the private lender and issues a mortgage to the sponsor with a
term up to forty years and an interest rate of 3 percent.
The sponsor makes
mortgage payments directly to GNMA.
"This interest subsidy cuts the costs of mortgage debt service by
approximately 40 percent, and permits rent reduction of about 25 percent."
Program Requirements:
Upper income limits for cligibility are set by HUD and depend
upon family size and geographic area. Usually the upper limit is set at
the median income level of families in the area.
221¢d)(3) projects must be located in communities which tive
workable programs.
Results:
"By July, 1967, FHA had given commitments to proceed with a
total of 73,000 units in 569 projects." 33,300 or 46 percent of the units
were under the sponsorship of Limited-dividend corporations.
A. Lack of technical experience and know-how on part of
non-profit sponsors.
B. Complexities and bottlenecks in processing applications
by FHA. Processing time to start of construction’
estimated at 376 working days.
C. Upper income eligibility limits claimed to be too restrictive.
Administration:
Most of the program administration is handled by the local FHA
Insuring Office. The Regional Offices of HUD play a minimal role in
this program. At.the HUD National level, program responsibility is with the
Assistant Secretary for Mortgage Credit, Federal Housing Commissioner.
Responsibility is further delegated to the Assistant Commissioner of
Multifamily Housing of FHA.
The 221(4)(3) program is currently being phased out’ and brought
under section 236 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968. The
program remains basically the same with the primary difference being that
the Bpttets atid mortgage is held by the private lender and mortgage subsidy
payments are wade to the financial institution by the Federal government.
Under 221(d)(3), the mortgage is held by GNMA and mortgage payments are
made directly to GNMA.

SUMMARY
The Open Space Land Program assists local governments and States
in purchasing and developing land in urban areas for park, recreation,
scenic, historic, and conservation purposes. The odjectives of the
program are to prevent the spread of-urvan blight, deterioration, and ‘
Sprawl; to encourage more economic and desirable urban development; .
and to meet the open space needs of people in the city. '
Open Space grants cen cover up to 50 percent of the cost oF
acquiring land. Grants may be made only to public bodies; private ‘
‘organizations are not eligible. The matching funds furnished by the
local government mey come From any non-Federal source, including
private philanthropy. However, donations of land cannot count toward
me local share. A project must be based on an open space plan for. :
ne community and must. be in conformance with areawide compren rensive
Siannihe Tor the entire metropolitan area. The land must de iccatec :
in an urban arta. However, there is no mininun population limitation. =
The Department places high vriority on land ecquisition when iv &
involves undeveloped iand, but limited grant-in-aid assistance toward
che development of parks and other open space areas is also evailabie. i
un general, all development activities in central cities and low- i
incowe neighborhoods can be assisted with a full 50 percent grant.
*

After an application nas been Tiled with one of the Department's
Regional Offices, HUD will review the application and make a decision
on wnether it can be funded, in terms of priorities and competing
‘ applications. A Yunding analysis process is used to evaluate
systematically all applications received. Projects approved ror
funding then undergo detailed reviews for compliance with all
sechnical program requirements. If a project cannot be approved for
funding, HUD will notify the community as soon as possible.

promptly advises the community, after which a formal Federal contract
is issued. The contract spells out the requirements with which the
grantee must comply in order subsequently to receive the authorized .
grant. Usually the grantee must spend the money within 12 months;
exceptions are made for cases involving court actions.

VROCASSING PROCEDURES
The Turnkey program was started by KUD on an experimental basis
in January of 1966. Its basic purpose is to permit better utilization of
the means and knowledge of private enterprise in er oductik public housing.
Under the Turnkey method, a developer or builder who owns a
site or an option, or can obtain one, may submit, in response to an
invitation from a Local Housing Authority (LHA), a proposal to build
housing ... for low income families. If the developer's proposal is acceptable
to the LHA and HUD, the LHA will enter into a Contract of Sale under which
the LHA agrees to purchase the completed development. “This contract will
be backed up by the financial assistance commitment of the United States
oz America, acting through HUD, to the LHA, and it will enable the developer
to secure commercial construction financing in his usual way.
At the National level, responsibility for this program is under
the Assistant Secretary for Renewal and Housing Assistance of HUD. Program
responsibility is further delegated to the Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Housing Assistance, the Head of the Housing Assistance Administration. The
urnkey Program is administered by the Director of the Production Division.
‘There are three program managers within this Division. who serve as liaison
officers between the HUD Regions and Headquarters for this and other public
housing programs adunistered by HUD.
At the Local level, there are generally only two participants:

powers and structure:as they are established under the authority of Stace
egislation. \

Th e Approach
Although substa ntiv e que s tions and inf ormati on will vary from

in ana l yzing t he pr ograms i n e ach of t he cities studied.
The ass ump t ion

..
is chat there are multiple forces and factors which impinge on critica l
decision -making in regard to par ticul ar programs in particular cities.
What we are viewing is the allocation and mob ilization of city and other
resources which a re directed toward definite urban programs.
The reason
why resour ces are more succes s ful ly mobilized in one city as opposed to
another, or in one program as oppose·d to another, leads us to investi gate
these factors.
In brief, t he first assumpti on is that the basic item to be
vi ewed is program performance , and the second assumption is that in
analyzing pr·ogram performance, one must look at the relationships o.f
c ertain fa ctors to program performance.
The multiple fa ctors whi ch impinge on the mobilization of r e sources
f or pro gr am performance may be best viewed by means of an action (or
inaction) sys t em for each program for each c ity .
The action syst em c an
be v iew2d as a process which responds to and , in turn, influences other
factors.
The Ac tion System
In brief, the action pr ocess includes several ' critical points;
( 1) the definition of the issue; ( 2 ) the identific ation and gathering of
resources and the involvement o f the community; (3) development of a
plan of a ction and program administration; ( 4) assignment of management
and operation of programs; ( 5) coordination with other level s of government;
and (6) evaluation of the program and feedback.

.
This brief statement of the action system can gain added
meaning by now asking questions which relate to each step in the a ction
system .
These questions will reflect t.wo types of phenomena.
The first
type concerns facto~s whi ch are reflective of the intergovernmental nature
of these HUD grant -in - a id programs.
· The second type of questions which are incorporated concern
characteristics of the city which may impinge on the action system for ·
urban program performance. These questions concern the following types
of c ity ch ara cteristics:
(1) jurisdictional adequacy; (2) legal authority;
(3) finan c ial resources; (4) trained manpower ; (5) public concern; (6)
leadership; (7) bureaucratic rivalries; (8) governmental form (including
plural ism and fragmentation); (9) concurrent problems and programs;
(10) demographic chara ct eri stics; and (11) indices of problem areas.

PILOT RESEARCH DESIGN FOR HUD PROJECT
Introduction
The National Academy of Public Administration is undertaking,
for the Department of Housing and Urban Development, a study intended
to uncover concrete factors and relationships which facilitate or hinder
= a ee a ee
urban program performance. The objective is to identify the critical
7 2
metas aeensnneene —_—_
elements in decision making and action systems by which HUD programs for
ame
local governments are put into effect, and to suggest ways of maximizing
the favorable and minimizing the unfavorable elements. This study is a
reflection of the concern of HUD and others with the difficulties of
implementing national programs which have their impact at the local level.
The links between program origin and program performance have appashéa done
and tortuous. : |
This study design represents one approach for the analysis of
_ program performance from the perspective of the local level. The Academy
will study four HUD programs — non-profit sponsored new housing under
221(d)(3), turnkey housing, basic water and sewer: facilities grants, and
inner-city open space — in six or seven cities.
The Approach
Although substantive questions and information will vary from
city to city, there are certain conceptual items which must be considered
in analyzing the programs in each of the cities studied. The assumption
is that there are multiple forces and factors which impinge on critical -
decision-making in regard to particular programs in particular cities.
What we are viewing is the allocation and mobilization of city and other
resources which are directed toward definite urban programs. The reason
why resources are more successfully mobilized in one city as opposed to
another, or in one program as opposed to another, leads us to investigate
these factors.
In brief, the first assumption is that the basic item to be
viewed is program performance, and the second assumption is that in
analyzing program performance, one must look at the relationships of
certain factors to program performance.
The multiple factors which impinge on the mobilization of resources
for program performance may be best viewed by means of an action (or
inaction) system for each program for each city. The action system can
be viewed as a process which responds to and, in turn, influences other
factors.
The Action System
In brief, the action process includes several critical points:
(1) tne definition of the issue; (2) the identification and gathering of
resources and the involvement of the community; (3) development of a
plan of action and program administration; (4) assignment of management
and operation of programs; (5) coordination with other levels of government;
and (6) evaluation of the program and feedback.

This brief statemen ‘action system can gain added
meaning by now asking questions which relate to each step in the action
system. These questions will reflect two types of phenomena. The first
ie)
type concerns factors which are reflective of the intergovernmental nature °
of these HUD grant-in-aid programs.
The second type of questions which are incorporated concern
characteristics of the city which may impinge on the action system for
urban program performance. These questions concern the following types
of city characteristics: (1) jurisdictional adequacy; (2) legal authority;
(3) financial resources; (4) trained manpower; (5) public concern; (6)
leadership; (7) bureaucratic rivalries; (8) governmental form (including
pluralism and fragmentation); (9) concurrent problems and programs;
(10) demographic characteristics; and (11) indices of problem areas.
Questions Concerning the Steps in the Action System
1. Identifying and defining the issue and problem:
(a) What critical events led to recognition of the problem?
(b) Who participated?
(c) How much participation in this step was there on the local/
state/federal level?
(d) What was the nature of the federal, state, and/or local initiative? ©
(e) What was the nature of the official interest in and support for the
program in the embryonic phase?
(£) How much involvement was there from the private sector?
(g) What bearing did the favorable, apathetic, or unfavorable attitudes
of identifiable segments of the public have upon initiating action?
Ch) Did ti
he presence or absence of personal leadership affect the
tion of action? .
(i) What type of technical information and general information was
available about the problem and programs?

IMPACT OF HUD PROGRAMS
TO BE STUDIED
Improving the effectiveness of major Federal programs is the
aim of a research contract announced today by the U. S. Depart:ment of Housing and Urban Development.
1
T. F. Rogers, Director of HUD' s Office of Urban Technology
and Research, .announced the award of a $100,000 contract to the
American Society for Public Administration. The project will study
· severa l of HUD' s programs in terms of their operation in a number
of se lected cities.
.

Mr. Rogers noted that "it is on~ of HUD' s prime responsibilities
to insure that states, cities and localities use its assistance programs
to maximu m advantage. The conclusions of this study are expected
to aid both HUD and the cities in improving the results of such Federal
programs as public housing, urban renewal., water and sewer facilitie s,
and open space.

The National Academy o f Public Administration, working with its
parent organization, the America n Society for Public Administration,
will establish a national panel and individual city panels to conduct
the study. These panels will develop a pattern describing the activities related to the admini stration o f each program surveyed in a city,
and analyze the principal local c ritica l decisions and actions. The ·
panel members will include member s of the Academy a nd residents of
each city to be surveyed who are knowledgeable in public administration
matters.

Atlanta, Georgia 30303
Dear Mr. Smith:
This letter is to appoint you to the Atlanta panel formed by the
Academy to function with respect to our research contract with the U.S. De-
partment of Housing and Urban Development. Enclosure "A" is a copy of the
HUD announcement regarding this project. :
The contract calls for us to study the critical decisional and
administrative aspects, primarily from the local point of view, of four HUD-
assisced urban programs: y turnkey housing,2inner-city open space,2basic sewer
and water facilities grants, andjnon-profit sponsored new housing under Sec-
tion 221(d)(3)--a replacement for study of 221(h). These programs wiil be
analysed from point of origin to point of impact in six (or seven) cities,
with Atlanta serving as the pilot study.
The project will tie in with related HUD contracts awarded to the
National League of Cities to evolve a system of urban observatories (in addi-
tion to Atlanta, four other designated observatory cities are among those
cities which we have recommended to HUD for inclusion in our study)’, and to
Rutgers University to study ways of achieving a more effective state role in
urban programs.
Dr. Morris W. Collins, Jr., Director of the-Institute of Government,
University of Georgia, is convenor of the Atlanta panel. Other panelists are
listed on Enclosure "B'. One or two additional members may be appointed.
As knowledgeable Atlantans, the panel will be asked to orient, inform,
advise, and hélp direct the three-man team which will be in Atlanta from
March 3lst through April llth. In addition to myself, this team is composed
of Messrs. Elias B. Silverman and Charles R. Warren.
There will be two panel meetings, to each of which this letter of
appointment is is an invitation. These meetings will be held at Georgia State
College on:
Wednesday, Moril ndy Eom Noon until about 3:00 P.M.
(luncheon in thé “Assembly Room, 2nd Floor of Student
Activities Building, with the meeting continuing in
the Faculty Lounge of the Business Administration
Building); and

At the April 2nd meeting,
the panel will be asked to review and
comment upon our Pilot Research Design (E
n (Enclosure "C") and Tentative Inter-
view Schedule (Enclosure "D"), to suggest ways in which we might most pro-
ductively proceed, and in general to guide our efforts in Atlanta. We have
also developed a Program Summarization and Status Report on the selected
programs (Enclosure nen),
The April 10th meeting will be devoted to an analysis and interpre-
tation of our data and to the formulation of findings and conclusions.
An honorarium of $25 per meeting attended will be provided to eu
as a member of the Atlanta panel.
A national panel has been appointed to further pane and evaluate
our efforts in all selected study cities. This panel is composed of:
Mr. William G. Colman, Executive Director, Advisory Commission
on Intergovernmental Relations
Mr. Porter W. Homer, County Manager, Dade County, Florida

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mr. Cecil A. Alexander, Chairman
Housing Resources Committee-
At the March 25 weeting of the Mayor with Department Heads
and Agencies responsible for carrying out Atlanta's Summer
Program in the six core areas. I presented the HRC plan dated
3-20-69, copy of which has been furnished you.
Item 11, Promotion of Emergency Housing, struck a very
responsive chord with Ann Moses, who has suggested I discuss
the matter further with Al Bows,
It has occurred to me that perhaps it might be well for you
to appoint an Ad Hoc Committee of about 3 members of the HRC to
look into this proposal and to come up with a report of findings
and recommendations on the matter, at our May meeting. I suggest
that the report include such items as;
a. Need for such housing.
b. Extent - number and bedroom composition of units.
c, Whether new or existing structures should be
cans idered
(I favor using existing structures with minimum alterations.
Perhaps VA Hospital 48 would be practical.)
qd. Maximum period of occupancy by any one family
(Perhaps 3 months)
e. Who would administer? (Maybe the Salvation
Army could do it.)
f. Tentative rentals to be charged and method of
payment, etc.
In this connection we might create more interest and get more
assistance and better results from our Committee members if we
would assign various projects of our summer and other programs to
small Ad Hoc Committees to work on, report and follow through.
Mr. Cecil A. Alexander
March 27, 1969
Page 2
Examples from our Summer Program items might include:
3. Work for rezoning for Browntown Road Turnkey
Project.
7. Encourage home ownership.
6. Encourage smaller developments of mixed type
Public Housing.
8. Strive for tangible evidence of physical
improvements in Vine City during 1969.
9. Work with Model Cities staff in expediting
physical evidence of experimental housing
this year.
10. Push early rezoning of entire City.
11. Work for elimination of slum pockets through
NDP or by Private Enterprise.
From time to time other projects such as study of future
housing needs; profitable utilization of the Urban Observatory
to best serve needs of the HRC and utilization of City owned
property for Public Housing (Such areas as undeveloped portions
of Lakewood Park, the City Prison Farm, etc.).would be appropriate
for appointment of small Ad Hoc Committees to work on, I believe
that such assignments would develop gpod results, be welcomed by
our Committee members and would give them a feeling of worthwhile
participation and eccomplishment.
Sincerely,
Malcolm D. Jones
Housing Coordinator

the Housing and jledevelopment Committee of the ftlanta Chamber of
commerce,
Mr. Gray steted that the Housing and Redevelopment Committee
is the Chamber task force for dealing with all matters pertaining
to housing in our community. This includes a number of areas:
The Urban Renewal Program, Public Housing, Code Enforcement, and the
many other government programs related tc housing; that the
Committee's ultimate goal, condensed to a single phrase, is to
help make available decent housing for all our people,

Shovid be taken to adopt an updated Land Use Plan for the City of
ftlanta, from which 2 new Zoning Ordinance could be evolved. Such
a zoning plan, said the Chember, Should previde for adequate land
for multi-family housing and open up land for increased density

Page 3
of the League of Women Voters, She stated that it would seen
mandatory to zone areas in all quadrants of the City for different
types of housing - low-rent, multi-family, etc. Without this
dispersal, the burden becomes too great on certain areas - 25
regards schools, recreational facilities, shopping complexes, etc.
With dispersal some residents would be better able to secure
transportation to reach jobs in outlying areas. Sound planning
and judicious zoning revisions are necessary for orderly growth,
Delay in acting upon a new zoning pian will compound the problems.
She urged that careful attention to be giva to design (beauty and
living quality) - open Spaces and park land - supportive community
services to reduce danger of isolation and in securing cooperation
of both new and old residents.
Mx. flexander then esiked for comments from the gifferenat
organizations on the SRC proposal.
lic, Otis Thorpe, ¥Fresident of the Empire Keal Estate Board

proper zoning to meet the housing needs of i.tlanta. We firmly
believe that better housing generates more, jobs, cconomic growth,
resulting in citizen participation in raising the standard of
living of all Atiantans. We respectfully request your support
cn this proposal,
ir. sob FlLanigen, txecutive secretary, Atlanta Branch of the
National /ssociation for isdvancement of Colored People (NAACP) stated
that the ifACP feels that the West of ftlanta already has too many
low-income housing units. He said that the NALCP dees not want
ary more houSing units in the West erea, but perhaps in other
sectors of the City, and wants assurance that additional develop-
ments will not be approved ia the western part of the City until
other sectors get their equitable share.
liv. John Gteinichen, Jil, Chairman of Interfaith, Inc., stated
that immediate steps should be talen by the City of ftlanta,
through its Planning Department and the Board of Aidermen, to
adopt an Updated Land Use Plan, and that a new Zoning Ordinance,
based on the Land Use Plan, should be prepared for submission to
the Board of fidermen at the earliest possible time. He also
stated that equal recommendation should be given to the Zoning
Text, because of the food plain and other considerations.
liz. Milton C, Foster, President, Home Builders fssociation of

Mr. Duane Beck, Executive Director of the Community Council

several sites in all quadrants of the City of Atlanta.
Mr. George Rice, a private citizen, talked about the Railroad
fvenue site. He said that he was in favor of developing this

Planning Director. He stated that 16,300 units re nmoeded for
relocation; that the first year's housing needs have been met,
but all the problems have not been soived. He also stated that
Public Nousing resources needed to be increased. The proposed
plan suggests ideas of continuing effots for dispersal fer the

ment of people because of Urban Renewal, roads, etc.; that the

(Copyright 1949 by The New Yor Times)
WASHINGTON — The Nixon
administration is at work on a
new housing program that will
attempt to spur competition be-
‘tween giant corporations for the
right to build hundreds of thou-
_ sands of low-cost units all over
. the country.
The secretary of Housing and
Urban Development, George W.
6 Die in Crash
Of RAF Plane
FAIRFORD, England (UPI).
A Royal Air Force transport
plane crashed and burned Mon-
day during a training exercise,
and a spokesman for the Brit-
ish Defense Ministry said all
six men aboard were Killed.
The plane was a four-engine
U.S.-built C130 Hercules that had
been sold to the RAF.
The Defense Ministry spokes-
men said the plane crashed
about 200 yards short of the run-
way at the HAF’s Fairford Base,

Romney, told reporters Monday
that the key to the new experi-
ment would be the encourage-
ment of mass preduction tech-
niques in an industry where
both the laws and the customs
have tended to produce build-
ings one at a time in the past.
By pooling the separate hous-
ing needs of the major states
and cities into a single mass
market, Romney indicated the
nation could miake profitable
-|use of the assembly line sys-
tem, originated in his former
industry, automobiles, in his
former city, Detroit.
Romney estimated that the
plan could produce from 250,000
to 350,000 low-cost housing units
a year, but he said that the first
of them would probably not be-
come available for about three
years. ;
“You don’t design an auto-
mobile in a few months, it takes
a couple of years,” the former
president of American Motors
said.
The housing secretary has
talked informally with governors
of a number of large states and

MEMORANDUM
TO; Mr. Cecil A. Alewander, Chaixvnan
Housing Resources Comaittee
Attached (Encl. 1) is copy of Memo from Eric Hill Associates to
Colliery Giadin, entitied "Expanded Moans To Loyer Cost Housing".
Collier kas di seussed this pied Ly with Dan Sweat with view to under
taking an updated and expanded study ef the housing portion of the
Cip, This would presumanty be dono by Eric Hill Associates.
Dan feels, and so do 2, that the initiation of any major up-
ere study on housing in Atlanta should be initiated by the
ousing Resources Committed.
Livie Hill] Associates is perhaps the best housing, planning
consultant fiem I know and there is little containcd in the attached
proposal with which 1 disagree, However, it seems somewhat ine
appropriate to initiate another major study whon we have not yot
been able to implement the recomaendations of the previous study,
although we aro fully aware of the major factors which are stiil
holding up implementation of the px eeooe SLUG « the following
are some of the more inportant of these cy?
@.e The number ono problem of course is getting
Bite approvals,
be Other dixficulties which have net been
adequatoly corrected and zor which specific
reconnendations were nade formally by
the Housing Resources Committee to the
Zoning and “Planning ang Development
Comaittees of the Board of Aldernen,
August 2, 1968, includes
3. “Revision of the Ordinance
governing non-conforming use
of land to allow structural
changes in improving dwoliting
units to meet yeduiremonts of
the Housing Code."
tite Cecil A. Alexander
u
invy 24, 1969 :
4. “Accelerate the Urban Renewal progras
particularly in the NASH-BANS, Vine
City and other areas outside the Ucdel
Cities area." This being only partially
implenented now.)
6. “Adoption of a revised district soning
hap based on the new Land Use map, to
include adcguate areas for low-incowe
houlnes." :
There are sevoral related docunents which have a direct bearing
on this matter.
Le
Be
de
The more pertinent of these ares
The Second Annual Roport (FUTURE DIRECTION
Section) which spelicd out certain recomnend=
ations for Zuture course of action for the
housing progran aod called for a revised
Statenent of nission from the Mayer for the
Comittee. Copy of draft preposed (2-10-65)
for revised mission is attached (Encl. 2).
It contained, among other things, suggestion
that a joint study of the housing needs of the
City be conducted by the Housing Authority,
Planning Department and the Housing Resources
Comittee. Such study might substitute for, or
be absorbed in, the proposed study by Eric
Hill Asseciates.
Sone suggestions fox a more practical approach
to solving the Icwe-income housing problems are
contained in Memo to Dan Sweat, February 11, 1969,
copy attached (Encl. 3).
Proposal for specific housing and related activities
Zor tho recently approved Urban Observatory are
contained in Memo to Mr. Sweat, October 31, 1968,
copy attached (Encl. 4). It is doubtful however,
that ali of the proposed activities can be assuned
by the Urban Cbservatory, certainly not initially.
The Housing Coordinator has repeatedly pointed cout
the need for, and requested the services of, a
Statistical Clerk to keep un-toedate and periodically
reproduce the Low-Income Housing Inventory Report.
That important report cannot be kept current,
through existing facilitics of the Housing Resources
Committee office. Just recently, as frequently,
ir. Cecil A. Alexander

Paga 3
i was calied upen by « City Official for curvent
figurss on units Coupleted, Under Conctrustic:
and In Planning in the Low-aineeme Nousing Pregran.
The best I could offer was to provide figures as
of Noveuber 15, 1955. i have not been ablo to
conpile a more recent voport, slthouch, it is
knovn that tho figures have chanced considerably
Since the Hovenber 15 report.
5. Attached (Enci. 5) are copies of recant Henos
_ fron this office to Mr, Sntterficld of the
Housing Authority in an effort to ebtain sone
essential data pertaining to Public Housing
ang to encourage coordination efforts tosard
Ansvuring rehabilitation of existing substandard
uniis, from which occupants move inte Public
Housinz.
In addition, tho CIP contained a specific recommendation for
establishnuent of a Housing Resources Burcau, Extract of the proposal
is attached (Encl. 6). About 2 years azo, I provided Hr. Sweat with
2 brief concept, including tentative proposed erganizational structure
and personnel considered necessary to implemont such an ectivity. If
established, that organization shonld probably function under the
guidance and as a facility of the Housing Resources Committee, with
@ specific Housing Committee of the Board of Aldormon designated to
Steer and carry the program's activities through the Board of -
Aldermen to Zruition.
Renlizing the lecal Administration's desire to reduce rather
than add Departments and in order to avoid appearances of onpire
building, I have thus far refrained from recommendins establishnent
of 2 Housing Bureau or Department. However, aithough a good start
has been made in housing, I feel that wo have barely scratched the
uxrfaee of the overall housing needs cf the City during the next 20
years; and that this preblen can bost be attnckod through an inerease
in, and elevation of, Housing Resources facilities, Perhaps the tine
has now come when we should seriousiy consider expansion of such
facilities and follow the recommendations of the CiP by establishing
& Suall Housing Bureau or Department.
In summary, the proposal of Fric Hill Associates is in general
practical. However, I cannot seo ang particular advantage of such
additionnl study at this time, unless there is, or will be, ample
organization and political structure for implementation of its findings.
This dees not exist new aud should be a prerequisite to initiation of
such a major new study. Recommendation (if made} for such organization
and political structure should, in my opinion, criginate with the
Housing Resources Conmittee,.

MEMORANDUM
TO; Mr. Cecil A. Alexander, Chairman
Housing Resources Committee
Re my memo to you of February 24, 1969, (copy attached),
Please note the second paragraph, advising that Dan Sweat feels
that the initiation of any major updating study on housing in
Atlanta should be initiated by the HRC.
I agree with Dan that, because of our progress to date
in the low-income housing field,in order to maintain the
prestige of the HRC, any formal proposal for initiation of a
major updating study as to future low and medium income housing
needs in Atlanta, should come from the HRC, rather than from
some cther Department or Agency.
Whether or not you agree with my conclusions about the
matter as summarized in the last paragraph of the attached
memo, as time progresses we will definitely need updating in-
formation on housing requirements as to family incomes, type,
number, size and cost of units. We simply do not have the
facilities in this office, as currently set up, to attempt
asstudy of the nature and scope required,
A very good illustration of this need is the request
today from the National Urban Coalition to provide by April
3 an estimate of anticipated number of subsidized housing
units to be constructed in Atlanta in the next three years
which might be committed to a market assembly program (See
attached news clipping from this morning's Atlanta Constitution.
I had hoped that the new direction which we as a Committee
should take would be forth coming before this, but apparently
it hasn't,
I feel that Eric Hill Associates is as well qualified
as any firm to prepare a comprehensive updating housing study
| and I found little with which to disagree in their outline
proposal, However, Mr. Gates feels that Eric Hill Associates
a a ce a a
Mr, Cecil A. Alexander
March 25, 1969

does not give recognition or credit to others for being familiar
with the Federal Housing programs, which he, of course, certainly
is. I think, however, that in a study all of these programs will
have to be considered and analyzed in order to provide a logical
basis for alternatives and conclusions reached,
‘I suggest that the Eric Hill proposal be placed on the Agenda
of our next HRC Executive Committee meeting and formal action be —
taken on it by our Committee. ‘At this stage, I would be inclined
to recommend favorable action by our Committee for a request to
the Mayor and Board of Aldermen for such a study.

On March 20, I took four very carefully selected welfare mothers to
Washington so that they could tell their stories directly to their
representatives. Here are the comments made by each:
A. Senator Talmadge
1. "I don't think the Congress or the state is going to let people
go hungry. "!
2. He said that he had voted last year to delay the ''freeze" and 'I
see no reason why I should not do so this year, "'
3. Talmadge was disturbed that approximately 50% of welfare cases
involved husbands who deserted their families. He strongly feels
that State and Federal laws on this should be "tightened up."
B. Senator Russell. He was ill. We talked with Charles Campbella
top aid who had these comments:
l. Russell had received more mail this year on the freeze than on
practically any other subject.
2. Russell believes in:
a. Increasing Day-Care Center programs (''we have many good
federal programs that are inadequately funded").
b. Extending aid to help: people find jobs.
3. ''Those who are able to work should work; those who are unable
to work should receive welfare benefits. The difficulty is to
separate those in need from those who should not be on the
welfare rolls."
4, If it came up for a vote, Campbell predicted that Russell would
vote to extend the freeze another year.
C, Congressman Ben Blackburn
1, We talked with him for a solid hour. He described our visit as
"helpful, "'

program is not working.
4. Although he believes in a balanced budget, he said he advocates
training programs strongly enough to go into debt to pay for them.
5. He asked for detailed information about children on welfare in
Fulton and DeKalb County.
a. Total number of children receiving benefits ages 0 to 5,
5 to 10, '10 to 15 and so forth.
b. Number of one child families, two child families, 5 and above,
etc.
c. Families with fathers who have deserted them,

D. Congressman Fletcher Thompson
1, Concerned that the Federal Government is spending more money
than it is taking in.
2. "There is practically nothing Icando. This matter is in the
hands of Wilbur Mills (Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee).
He rules this Committee with an iron hand."
3., Thompson did practically all the talking and we had a chance to say
very little. He spent a great deal of time talking about the welfare
situation in New York City. We told him, 'We had come to discuss
the hungry people in Fulton County, Georgia."
4. "This is not just an Atlanta or Georgia problem but a national
problem"
5. "The tax Reger e are sereaming about high taxes and reducing
expenditures, '
6. lasked him was there anything else I should tell the press on our
visit other than his concerns. Thompson said, "I can't think of
anything else."
Our visit was well reported in the Journal, (Gonetution, WSB-TV, WAGA-TV,
and five radio stations.
