Haverty, seconded by Dr ., Atwood 8 the following resolution, after being read by the General Manager , was unanimously adopted·i WHEREAS u on August 1 8 1967 u the MARTA Board in it s r egular meeting considered the problem of the Air Rights Development over the proposed west line right- of -way, and WHEREAS , the Board authorized the General Manager to negotiate with Cousins Proper ties Inc. , the developer , with an i ndi cation of intent on the par t of the Authority to bear necessary expenses to which Cousins might be put to accommodate a rap i d t r ansit line beneath the said Air RightsDevelopment e and WHEREAS , it now appears that the construction has been completed at a cost to Cousins of $85 , 770 more than the same would have cost without special a r rang ements having been made for t he proposed MARTA lines , and WHEREAS, it appears that an expenditure considerably in excess of the aforesaid amount would be required had not Cousins been wi lling to make advance p r ovision for said right of way during construction ; NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED u that the Board of Directors of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Tr ansit Authority hereby agree a nd accept as a proper figur e t he sum of $85 ,770 for extra expenditures by Cousi n s P r oper ties Inc . on its Air Rights Development to provide a mass transit right of way and does hereby r ecomme nd, contingent upon a successful referendum financing a mass transit plan for metropolitan Atlanta approving routes whereby the right of way provided for mass transit by Cousins Properties Inc . through said a rea will be utilized for the benefit of t he public, that t he said sum of $85 0 770 be p a id to Cousins P roper ties Inc.,, its successors or assigns, and BE I T FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Board recommend that Cousins Proper ties Inc. be reimbu rsed at a fair and reasonable interest rate on the afo re said s um from thi s date forthwith and until the same is final°ly acknowledged and paid as set forth above . - 3 - �Mrs McMillan further reported that the Engineering and Design Review Committee had met on July 24th for the purpose of discussing the progress being m~de by the staff and consultants in executing the assignment given them July 1 to compare the earlier MARTA plan and the Voorhees recommended plan and to produce a recommendation for a transit system which would include the best elements of both plans. Mr. McMillan stated that the Committee felt that work was proceeding along appropriate lines but was not complete enough to present to the Board at the current meeting. Mr. Blount suggested that the Committee work closely with the staff and con$ultants and report to the Board regularly as to the progress of this work. REPORT OF FINANCE COMMITTEE Dr. Atwood presented a new two-year work program and an application for $718,000.00 in federal funds. The work program covered the work necessary to prepare a new rapid transit proposal for submission to the voters, including several new projects, as well as a revision of earlier work, some of which had been outdated since failure of the referendum last year. Three broad categories of work were involved, the first of which concerned concept studies involving route or ha~dware adjustments. This work would amount to ~bout 8% of the total project. Continuation and completion of the Voorhees work is included in this; also an analysis of busways. Second, there would be a refinement of an adopted system to the same standards of detail and accuracy as the system proposed by MARTA in 1968. This work would amount to 47¾ of the total. Patronage, operations and revenue estimating, and a new financial plan would be among the projects in this element. Third, there would b e a supporting program which would form a foundation for public understanding of the plan as finally adopted. This would be 45¾ of the total project. Included in this element would be a cost/benefit analysis and a public information program plan~ tring project. The total budget for the two-year period would be $1,693,000.00. For 1970, the budget is $732,000.00 and for 1 971 $961, 000 . 00 . Federal funds would amount to $359,000.00 each year. State funds would be $73,200.00 in 1970 and $91,600.00 in 1971. Local participation would be $299,800.00 in 1970, returning to the pre- 1969 level . In 1971 the local participation would be $465,400 . 00 , a s omewhat higher rate than previously. Completion of the work described would result in a program which could be sutrnitted to the voters late in 1971 o r in 1972. Dr. Atwood stated that it was the consensus of the Committee members that the budget, pS pr~sented, was appropriate to the work to be done during 1970 and 1971 and recommended that the Board adopt the budget framework and plan to approach the Local Governments about 1970-71 appropriations. I~ response to questions , Mr. Stuart stated that the new program is responsive to the resoluti on of the AATS Policy committee; that the program is in keeping with the Federal guides; that Federal funds are available, and - 4 - �I that the Federal application can be amended if it is found desi r able to do so after the p r ogram i s discussed with Local Government s ~ Mr ~ Blount stated it was necessary to have not only money from the Local Governments , but their full support of the program as well ~ Dr e Atwood said it was most important that we anticipate needs for 1971, going beyond 1970 . Mr . Wilson suggested that the Board take the recommendation to the supporting governments as early as possible to determine if they will fully support the p r ogr am a After discussion of the proposed 1970-71 budget and work program, including the new Federal application, upon motion by Dr a Atwood , seconded by Mr e McMillon, they were unanimously adopted , subject to gaining acceptance by the Local Governments ~ CHANGE IN TIME OF REGULAR BOARD MEETINGS Mr $ Stuart stated that one of the Board members had approached him about setting an earlier meeting time due to heavy traffic congestion a r ound 4:30 and 5:00 P 9M. following adjournment of the meeti ng s i n o rder to accommodate those members living in adjacent counties ~ After a discussion, the members approved moving the meeting time of f utur e meetings fr om 3 :30 P.M. to 3:00 P.M. REMARKS BY GLENN E. BENNETT - ARMPC Mr . Bennett stated he had two items that he would like to discuss wi th the Board . The first item was the continuing planning activities f o r the Atlanta Area Transportation Study (AATS) which would amount t o practically a new AATS . ARMPC had passe d a reso l ution at their July 28 , 1969 meeting in which they urged their member governments and other appropriate agencies to take immediate steps to initiate the continuing , comprehens i ve land use/ t ransportati on planning program called f o r by the Atlanta Area Transportati o n Study Policy Committee and keyed t o the 1970 census e Mr . Bennett hoped that .MARTA would continue to parti c ipate i n the AATS work . Mr . Wingfield stated the continuing p lanning process was a Federal requi rement and ARMPC was concerned abou t the State Highway Department of Georgia and MARTA quali f y ing for F e deral funds . Mr. Blount pointed out that our proposed Techni ca l Studies Application to the Depar tment of Transportatio n d o es hav e an i t em for the continuing planning wor k and that MARTA does i nte nd to cooperate a nd p articipa te in f uture AATS work. The second i tem discussed by Mr . Be nnett was t he purchase o f the Atlanta Tra nsi t Syste m by MARTA. He stated many p eop le b elieve MARTA shou l d purch a s e ATS n ow a s an int e rim mea sure to improve transit service in t h e Atlanta area. This item was also discussed at the ARMPC meeting on J u ly 28e It was Mr. Huie's opinion t h at the legal problems cou ld be worked out for this transaction but · the big problem was financi al - 5 - �support. It was felt that if MARTA bought the Atlanta Transit System and improved the bus service, it would probably operate at a deficit, and the deficit would require a subsidy from the supporting governments which would probably require a referendum to raise these funds. Mr. Blount asked about Fede~al support in such a situation. Mr. Stuart stated that the Authority could receive up to a twothirds grant for buying the Atlanta Transit System, but there was no Federal provisions at this time for financial assistance towards an operating subsidy. Mr. Haverty stated that it was MARTA's function now to do planning for a mass transit system and that the purchase of ATS should be part of the implementation when the over-all project has been approved by the public. Mr. Blount pointed out that our proposed application to D.O.T. does have an item for the bus system acquisition investigation and that it was his opinion that purchase of the Transit System should be initiated by the participating local governments rather than by MARTA. Mr. Bennett asked that a representative from MARTA atte nd the next AR!-1PC meeting, which Mr. Blount acknowledged. ADJOURNMENT The Vice Chairman adjourned th~ meeting ~t 4: 25 P .M.

ENGINEERING & DESIGN REVIEW COMMITTEE Mr. McMillon reported on a problem that had previously been brought before the Board but never resolved regarding additional costs to Cousins Properties Inc. in modifying the construction of their air rights parking development to accommodate a future rapid transit line. He said the project in the Spring—Techwood- Hunter Street Viaduct area was now complete and in operation with all construction costs finalized. Mr. Cousins had asked that the Board acknowledge its obligation to pay for the additional cost of construction amounting to $85,770.00. Adequate documentation had been received from the contractor to substantiate the addi- tional costs and the Chief Engineer for the Transit Authority had Bm reviewed and verified the above figure. Meetings had also been held with L&N Railroad officials under whose jurisdiction the construction work was performed, and they felt this cost was appropriate. Mr. McMillon stated that it was the recommendation of the Engineering and Design Review Committee that the Board pass a resolution in which it recommended payment of the $85,770.00, plus a reasonable interest rate to Cousins Properties Inc. for extra expenditures on its air rights development in the vicinity of the Terminal Station, contingent upon a successful referendum to finance a mass transit system for Metropolitan Atlanta.

CHANGE IN TIME OF REGULAR BOARD MEETINGS Mr, Stuart stated that one of the Board members had approach- ed him about setting an earlier meeting time due to heavy traffic congestion around 4:30 and 5:00 P.M. following adjournment of the meetings in order to accommodate those members living in adjacent counties. After a discussion, the members approved moving the meeting time of future meetings from 3:30 P.M. to 3:00 P.M. REMARKS BY GLENN E.

ARMPC had passed a resolution at their July 28, 1969 meeting in which they urged their member governments and other appropriate agencies to take immediate steps to initiate the continuing, comprehensive land use/transportation planning program called for by the Atlanta Area Transportation Study Policy Committee and keyed to the 1970 census. Mr. Bennett hoped that MARTA would continue to participate in the AATS work. Mr. Wingfield stated the con- tinuing planning process was a Federal requirement and ARMPC was concerned about the State Highway Department of Georgia and MARTA qualifying for Federal funds. Mr. Blount pointed out that our proposed Technical Studies Application to the Department of Trans- portation does have an item for the continuing planning work and that MARTA does intend to cooperate and participate in future AATS work. The second item discussed by Mr. Bennett was the purchase of the Atlanta Transit System by MARTA. He stated many people believe MARTA should purchase ATS now as an interim measure to improve transit service in the Atlanta area. This item was also discussed at the ARMPC meeting on July 28. It was Mr. Huie's opinion that the legal problems could be worked out for this transaction but-the big problem was financial = i= support.

Department of Housing and Urban Development, Atlanta Transit System , Metropol i tan Planning Commission, City of Atlanta, Central Atlanta Progress , Inc., Economic Opportunity Atlanta, Inc., and other transportation and planning agencies were in attendance. Purpose of the meeting was to discuss MARTA's new federal application , as well as applications filed by the City of Atlanta and Central Atlanta Progress, Inc., and by Economic Opportunity Atlanta , Inc .. It was pointed out that Federal agencies are concerned about overlapping work items in the above applications, as well as that of the TOPICS (Traffic Operations ProgrqITI to Increase Capacity and Safety) Study that is soon to be initiated by a consultant for the State Highway Department. It was noted that these studies should be coor dinated with each other in order to avoid any duplication of work. Work schedules would be submitted to the Federal agencies with an explanation of how these various programs will be coordinated and tied in . Two char ts were presented by Mr. St~art, the first of which showed the wor k schedule for conducting an ~ast-West Busway f .easibility study. Planning projections for this study would be furnished by ARMPC and the remainder of the work would be undertaken jointly by Parsons Brinckerhoff-TudoE-Bechtel and Alan M. Voorhees and Associates. The work would take about nine months but it is hopefu l that early conclusions can be reached before that t ime peri od . Wor k items 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the MARTA application a r e involved i n this evaluation study. The s e con d c a r t p r esented reflect ed MARTA' tota l wor k p r ogram a nd it s howed coordi nation with the Central Area Study bei ng spo nsor ed by t he Ci t y of Atlanta and Central Atlanta Pr o Thi s g ress , and t h e work o f Econ omi c Oppor tuni ty Atlanta , Inc . wo u ld be .a two - yea r p r ogram with the approximate starti ng dat e bei ng J a nuar y 1 , 1 9 7 0 , broken down into two phase s with Pha s e I being t he wor k progr ammed f o r 1 970 and Phase II the r emaini ng work.

Department of Housing and Urban Development, but HUD preferred to have it filed through MARTA with the Transit Authority being the Administrative Agency and responsible for the work. It would not cost the Transit Authority any funds except for the occasional staff time that would be required to review and administer the work. Mr. Stuart had agreed to this arrangement and planned to meet with EOA officials in the near future o REPORT OF PUBLIC INFORMATION DIRECTOR Mr. Elliott reported that public information activities were being accelerated as requested at the OGtober Board Meeting. Contacts had been made with Editors of the Atlanta Journal and Constitution, and with News Directors of local radio and television stations. Information had been supplied for a special edition of the Atlanta Journal, and WRNG Radio had agreed to provide a one-hour program when the MARTA program is defined. A re-cap of the MARTA program had been drafted and will be put into final form when the program is firmed up. The re-cap will serve as the framework for more detailed informational efforts.

Blount, Acting Chairman. MINUTES Minutes of the October 7th meeting had been mailec: prior to the meeting and were unanimously approved upon a motion by Mr. Bishop, seconded by Mr. Hardin. FINANCIAL REPORT The Financial Report as of October 29, 1969, presented by Mr. Stuart, showed appropriations received from the participating governments for the fourth quarter with the exception of Fulton and Gwinnett Counties. Mr. Stuart pointed out that since prepara-— tion of the statement, Fulton County's fourth payment had been received, leaving Gwinnett County in arrears for the third and fourth quarters. Staff and administrative costs continued to run within the budget. Upon motion by Mr. Bishop, seconded by Mr. Hardin, the financial statement was unanimously approved and is attached and made a part of these Minutes, Mr. Stuart stated that Mr. Hardin had suggested that the monthly financial statement would be more informative if the budget column were pro-rated and if it included a new column for the same period last year. Mr. Hardin's suggestions had been referred to the Finance Committee, and Mr. Stuart was directed to set up an additional meeting between the Finance Committee, Counsel, Accountant and Auditor for MARTA, sometime during December to discuss the matter further and report back to the Board by the first of the year. Mr. Blount stated that it would be necessary to approve the proposed 1970 budget during December. It had already been submitted to the Local Governments and favorable comments had been received from them. Mr. Blount further stated that due to changes in the City government as a result of the recent election that the new budget should be submitted to the newly elected Mayor, Vice-Mayor, Aldermen, and to any others concerned. Upon motion by Mr. Haverty, seconded by Mr. McMillon, it was unanimously agreed that a meeting should be arranged by the General Manager with tie new officials to apprise them of the proposed 1970 budget and work program. REPORT OF GENERAL MANAGER Mr. Stuart reported on a meeting in Atlanta on October 23rd with Mr. Jerome C. Premo of the Urban Mass Transportation Adminis-~— tration, Washington, D. C., at which meeting representatives of s #2 of the Highway Department, Federal Highway Administration, U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Atlanta Transit System, Metropolitan Planning Commission, City of Atlanta, Central Atlanta Progress, Inc., Economic Opportunity Atlanta, Inc., and - Other transportation and planning agencies were in attendance. Purpose of the meeting was to discuss MARTA's new federal applica- tion, as well as applications filed by the City of Atlanta and Central Atlanta Progress, Inc., and by Economic Opportunity Atlanta, Inc. It was pointed out that Federal agencies are concerned about overlapping work items in the above applications, as well as that of the TOPICS (Traffic Operations Program to Increase Capacity and Safety) Study that is soon to be initiated by a consultant for the State Highway Department. It was noted that these studies should be coordinated with each other in order to avoid any dupli- cation of work. Work schedules would be submitted to the Federal agencies with an explanation of how these various programs will be coordinated and tied in. Two charts were presented by Mr. Stuart, the first of which showed the work schedule for conducting an East-West Busway feasibility study. Planning projections for this study would be furnished by ARMPC and the remainder of the work would be under- taken jointly by Parsons Brinckerhoff-Tudor-—Bechtel and Alan M. Voorhees and Associates. The work would take about nine months but it is hopeful that early conclusions can be reached before that time period. Work items l, 2, 3 and 4 of the MARTA applica- tion are involved in this evaluation study. The second chart presented reflected MARTA'ts total work program and it showed coordination with the Central Area Study being sponsored by the City of Atlanta and Central Atlanta Pro- gress, and the work of Economic Opportunity Atlanta, Inc. This would be a two-year program with the approximate starting date being January 1, 1970, broken down into two phases with Phase I being the work programmed for 1970 and Phase II the remaining work. Upon completion of Mr. Stuart's presentation a copy of each chart was furnished the Members with the request that they be studied, followed by any questions the Board might have. The General Manager stated that a written monthly progress report would be required in order to keep all agencies fully informed of developments throughout the work program. It was pointed out that all work elements reflected on the charts were contained in the new federal application being submitted to DOT with the exception of the planning projections which were being prepared by ARMPC and would be incorporated in the appropriate section of the application when received. Mr. Stuart expressed hope that a new approach to transit, new amendments that would be required, and a sound financial plan would be ready to present to the General Assembly during LOT Mr. Stuart also mentioned that Economic Opportunity Atlanta, Inc. had filed their application directly with the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, but HUD preferred to have it filed through MARTA with the Transit Authority being the Administrative Agency and responsible for the work. It would not cost the Transit Authority any funds except for the occasional staff time that would be required to review and administer the work. Mr. Stuart had agreed to this arrangement and planned to meet with EOA officials in the near future. REPORT OF PUBLIC INFORMATION DIRECTOR Mr. Elliott reported that public information activities were being accelerated as requested at the October Board Meet- ing. Contacts had been made with Editors of the Atlanta Journal and Constitution, and with News Directors of local radio and television stations. Information had been supplied for a special edition of the Atlanta Journal, and WRNG Radio had agreed to provide a one-hour program when the MARTA program is defined. A re-cap of the MARTA program had been drafted and will be put into final form when the program is firmed up. The re-cap will serve as the framework for more detailed informational efforts.
