The committee expressed its concern about a tract immediately to the north lying in
unincorporated . Fulton County which, upon approval of this annexation petition, would
become landlocked and asked if it could be included along with this petition.
Mr. Gladin explained this is one type of problem you incur in the petition route and
it could not be legally included, but could be brought up at the next filing period in
May, 1970.
The committee felt this would be highly desirable and should be encouraged at that
time.
Mr. Eugene Anderson, part-owner of the tract which would become

In answer to questioning by Mr. Cook, Mr. Anderson stated the C-1 zoning approved
by the · county was done so as part of an overall Medical Complex proposal which
subsequently fel I_ through much to their regret and loss, and there is no commercial
development in the area presently.
There being no further discussion, the_ matter was referred to Executive Session.
In Executive Session, upon unanimous vote, this petition was approved by the committee.
































1 . B. PUBLIC HEARING - ANNEXATION PETITION BY JOHN E. LIVADITIS GARMON ROAD.
There was no opposition present. A detailed report relative to this petition certifying
its compliance with State Enabling Le gislation and app licabl e city ordinances was presented
to ea ch committee member pre sent and the staff recommended approva l . The property
li es in Land Lot 177 of the 17th District and is approximately 2 acres in si z e. Mr.
G ladi n stated the property is presently zoned R- 1 (Reside ntial) a nd would be annexed
as R-1; that all services are available, or can be provided upon request (lettersto this
e ffect are a part of the report).

Mr. Li vaditis was present a long with his representative, Robert Smith . Mr . Smith
acknowledged the y were aware of the fact there a re no existing sewers to the property
and . the present plans are to use two septic tanks, but the y are hopeful of working out
an easement agreement with the adjoi ning property owner to connect with an outfall

sewer 150 feet from Mr. Livaditis 1 property line.
Mr. Cook called to Mr. Smith's attention a letter in the report from the Public Works
Department stating that sanitary sewer is not available for the property to be annexed
on Garmon Road and would not be available until approved by the property owners
along this section.
Mr. Smith stated they realized securing the easement would be difficult but were still
hopeful it could be worked out, and in the meantime, the septic tanks are an alternative.
Mr. Smith stated Mr. Livaditis is ready to begin bricking the house and doesn't have
any water; since there is a charge to tap onto the water fo r property outside the city, he
wanted to know if final approval of this petition by the Board of Aldermen would be
expedited to relieve him from having to pay this charge.
A check with the Water De partment indicated that if this committee approves the annexation
peti t ion today, they would not charge Mr. Livaditis to tap onto the water prior to final
approval of the petition. Messrs. Smith and Livaditis expressed their appreciation to the
committee.
The matter was then refe rred to Executive Session, and upon unanimous vote, this petition
was approved by the committee.

STATUS OF RECERTIFICATION OF WORKABLE PROGRAM
Pie rce Mahon y explaine d tha t the Planning staff is progressing rapidly toward completion
of work fo r recerti fi ca t ion of the Wo rka ble Prog ram for a two- ye a r period, ra t he r than
one ye a r which has been approve d in the past . He stated the re have bee n considerable
revisi ons in the req uire me nts of the p rog ram fo r recert ification, mak ing it much more
diffic ul t to pu t toge ther a nd committi ng us to a much more sol id app roach . He comme nted
brie fl y on some o f the new aspe c ts of the progra m, such a s the housing and re loca ti on
element and the departme nt's antici pa ted part icipa tio n in the HUD 701 p la nning p rog ra m.
He explained a federa l requireme nt fo r particip ati o n in the 701 progra m is that one
portion of the p lanning studies be a housing study; further, the person ne l situation
throughout the city , especia lly in the te ch nica l and p rofe ssiona l leve l', is getting' serious
and the Planning Department ho pe s to so lve some o f its prob lem s by hiring tempo rary
personnel on 701 planning programs w ho coul d move into permanent planning vacancies as
they occu r.
He went on to say these new requirements, particularly housing planning fo r low and
moderate income families, points up the critical need for the Urban Information System
�c.

for the city, because of the various and sundry data which can be obtained from it on
immediate notice, and he urged the committee's support in implementation of this system.
He presented a draft of "Workable Program Five-Year Goals II and stated the city wi II
be committed to these goals and emphasized the need to begin considering an advance
two-year budget.
Considerable discussion then ensued about the status of the Mayor's Housing Program.
Colonel Jones of the Housing Resources Committee stated that the city is about halfway
through the initial five-year program. He cited figures for the two and one-half year
period, stating we have under construction and completed approximately 8,000 units, and
we have in the pipeline more units than the original goal of 17,000. He sta ted, however,
a lot of !re units in planning are being lost because we do not have properly zoned
locations to put them on.
Mr. Cook asked on what basis units are classified as being in the "planning stage".
C·.
.•
Mr. Jones explained they are put in this category when a rezoning application is filed
and a proposal is submitted; if the zoning is denied, they are taken out; that more
zonings for this purpose have been denied than approved. He cited the loss of 21,000
units through recent rezoning denials .
Mr. Cook state d this doesn't concur with figures he obtained from the Planning Department.
Mr. Gladin explained the staff analysis referre d to was done about a ye ar ago and at
that time the zoning approvals were running about 80-90%; that the staff is in the process
of p reparing an up-to- date analysis o{ the housing program .
Mr. Cook ds ked for and was furnished with a copy of Mr. Jones' late st housing report.
Afte r a cu rsory examination, Mr . Cook expressed conce rn ab out the disc repancy in
fi g ures contai ned in the repo rt and those sta ted ora lly by Colone l J ones. Being a
me mbe r of the Zoning Committee, he state d he was tired of charges being made that
the ci ty's housing goa ls we re not be ing me t because of rez oning de nial s as he did not
be li e ve this to be the case, a nd he finds it very confusing and frustating to be unable
to justify his positi on whe n he is unabl e to secure re li ab le statis tics; that he would
Iike statisti cs differen ti a ting wha t pe rce ntage of the 8,000 uni ts quoted by Colone l
J ones is ac tually low and moderate income housi ng .
Mr. Kennedy stated he ha d ve ry strong rese rvations that this perce ntage was q uite low ,
that as stated by Mr. G ladi n , the Plann ing staff is in the process of ana lyz ing the
Housing Program for the la st two and one- ha lf years a nd he fe lt this report would
produce the type statistics Mr. Cook is looking for.

Mr. Gladin stated he realized the problems in working with the housing figures, and
again this points up the need for good management procedures, which need to be
standardized, and the Urban Information System for quick delivery of these statistics
over a period of time. He also commented on the need for more emphasis on the
city's total housing needs.
Mr. Cook directed the staff to prepare a letter for his signature to Colonel Jones
requesting clarification on the following:
l.
Is the actual number of units under construction and completed for the last
two and one-half years the 8,000 oral figure given by Colonel Jones, or
the 12,000 figure in his report of May 15, 1969;
2.
What percentage of this figure is for low and moderate income housing;
3.
The method used for determining what is low and moderate income housing,
the name of the projects and the number of units in each project.
He stated that in looking at the May 15 report and oral figures by Colonel Jones, it
would appear we a re moving backwards and this prompted Mr. Flanigen to remark he
had no doubt but what the program is "slipping".

With additi anal reference to the housing question, Mr. Mahony stated that at the
last meeting of the Housing Resources Committee, the Legal Panel discussed the need
for establishing a Housing Planning Agency within the city government to relieve the
Housing Resources Commi t te e membe rs who are present ly spending an inord inate amount
of time doing su rveys and research in the field of housing .
He stated the logical
place for such a housing function would be in the Planning Depa rtment, particularly
in light of the 701 planning p rogram; that the staff would like the committe e's support;
and he prese nted a le tter for Mr. Cook 's signa tu re as Chai rman of the Planning and
De ve lopmen t Commi ttee supporting the department's position .
Colone l Jo ne s sta ted tha t the Legal Panel has been studying this matter, but the y have
no t subm itted a posi tion report to Mr . Ale xander a nd he does not kn ow what type of
report w il I be subm it te d if and whe n it is, and he felt any action by t his committee
on this matter would be pre mature a t t his ti me .

M r. Gladin stated the letter does not request an y fina l a ction; tha t it mere ly makes
a recommendation for the Ho using Re sou rces Committee t o consider in making their
recommendation.
Colonel Jones stated he sti II felt the letter was in anticipation of something and
prematu re.
�Minutes

Mr. Mahony commented that the Planning Deportment fee Is very strong Iy about this
and consequently wanted to take a positive approach, rather than waiting for a
proposal from the Housing Resources Committee and reacting.
The committee unanimously approved the letter and Mr. Cook appended his signature
thereto.
Referring back to the status report on the Workable Program, Mr. Gladin stated the
staff hopes to present the final draft to this committee July 28, 1969 for review, and
will request committee approval at a meeting on August I, 1969; it will then be forwarded
to the ne x t meeting of the Board of Aldermen where, hopefully, it will be finally
approved and hand delivered that same afternoon to HUD. This will give HUD ample
review time prior to the October expiration date for last year's recertification.

PREFACE FOR WORKABLE PROGRAM HANDBOOK
'Ihis Handbook sets forth a new approach and revised requirements to
guide localities that are carrying out a Workable Program for Community
Improvement.
It represents the first major revision of the Workable Program procedures since enactment of the statutory provision in 1954-,
We have several objectives which we hope will be achieved by the revision. One is to respond to the many changes that have taken place
in our urban areas over the years. Another is to ensure that our
requirements for the Workable Program are focused on performance by
localities in dealing with the problem of slums and blight~-not just
on compliance with operational procedures. Above all, the purpose is
to give local communities both flexibility an4 the responsibility to
develop effective programs to achieve the objectives of the statute in
light of the particular nature of problems and conditions existing in
each locality.
' '
'.Ihe substitution of performance standards for certain formal elements
of the Workable Program does not represent any easing in current substantive requi rements. Nor does the Handbook envision any reduction
in efforts by communities now participating in the program. The introduction of a performance-oriented approach hopefully will result in a
more effective attack on the major problems facing the community.
I am confident that, after more than a decade of experience with the
Workable Program, the Federal-local partnership has the maturity to
operate effectively under the new approach of this Handbook and thereby
we can make more meaningful progress toward overcoming the urgent
problems facing our cities and towns today.

FOREWORD
This Handbook sets forth revised policies, requirements, and procedures
for communities required to carry out a Workable Program for Community
Improvement in connection with the use of certain Departmental housing
and renewal programs to help overcome probiems of slums and blight.
-Workable Program Guides containing illustrative and advisory information
will be issued to supplement this Handbook.
The revised policies and requirements set forth herein are effective
upon issuance of this Handbook. Tnose communities which already have
submitted or· have substantially completed documentation in support of
an application for certification or recertification of a Workable
Program need not revise the material . However, communities may use the
revised forms described in this Handbook immediately . After March 31,
1969, all applications for certification or recertification of a Workable Program must be in conformance with the revised policies and
requirements.
The primary objective of the revision is to provide a fle:x:i.ble
and performance-oriented framework within which communities may demonstrate reasonable continuing progress toward· achieving the goals sought
by the statutory requirement for a Workable Program and those established by the community to implement them.
The revision also modifies reporting and documenta~ion requirements
and provides new criteria for evaluating community performance.
The revised Workable Program concentrates on four essential areas:
a.
The · adoption and enforcement of housing, building, and related
codes.
b.
The establishment of an effective action-oriented planning
and programming process.





c.
The developnent of programs to meet low- and moderate- income
housing needs and to meet relocation needs of families ,
individuals, and business concerns displaced by governmental
action.

�WORKABLE PROGRAM FOR COMMUNI'IY IMPROVEMENT
•
IRHA
7100.1
d.
I
The involvement of citizens, including poor and minority
groups, in Workable Program activities and in related HUDassisted housing and renewal programs.
The intent of this Handbook is to strengthen the Workable Program as a
flexible and meaningful tool to help communities organize and carry out
its community improvement programs. The Handbook envisions no lessening of effort by communities which h~ve been participating under
previous Workable Program guidelines. Rather, it is anticipated that
communities will make greater :grogress toward achieving the obj ectives
of the statute with the increased flexibility provided by the Handbook
to concentrate local efforts and tailor specific needs and problems
facing the community. Applications for certtfic?tion in accordance
with the requirements of this Handbook which propose a program with an
overall leve l of effort below that made in the past, will not be
acceptable.
Certifications and recertifications of Workable Programs will be e ffective for two years. Field reviews of progress will be made as necessary
by HUD Regional Office staff midway through the certification period to
provide advice and t echnical assistance.
HUD-assisted programs to which the Workable Program applies are listed
in Chapter 1, paragraph 5. A community intending to make application
for financial assistance under any of these pro grams should become
familiar with the policies and requirement s set forth in this Handbook.
An understanding of these policies and requirements will facilitate the
preparation of the application for certification or recertification of
the community 's Workable Program and thus help to expedite the processing of applications for financial assistance for specific programs.

CHAPTER 1
CHAPTER 1.
1.
SUMMARY OF WORKABLE PROGRAM PURPOSES AND REQUIREMENTS
STATU'IORY PROVISION. The Housing Act of 1949, as amended, requires
as a condition of certain financial assistance, the following:
11
•••
a workable program for co~unity improvement (which
shall include an official plan of action, as it exists
from time to time, for effectively dealing with the problem
of urban slums and blight within the community and for the
establishment and preservation of a well-planned community
with well-organized environment for adequate family life)
for utilizing appropriate private and public resources to
eliminate and prevent the develoµnent or spread of slums
and urban blight, to encourage needed urban rehabilitation,
to provide for redevelopnent of blighted, deteriorated, or
slum areas, or to undertake such of the aforesaid activities or other feasible community activities as may be
suitably employed to achieve the objectives of such a
program."
The statute also requires the ad.option and effective enforcement
of a minimum standards housing code, as described in Chapter 4.
In addition to the Workable Program requirements contained herein,
communities are advised that various HUD-assistance programs may
contain additionab separate requirements tailored to meet specific
program needs (e.g. relocation requirements of the urban renewal
program, general planning requirements for water and sewer, or open
space land grants). See Chapter 3, paragraph 7, for further
information.
2.
BASIC PURPOSE OF STATU'IORY PROVISION. The basic purpose of the
Workable Program requirement is to ensure that communities desiring to utilize funds for renewal and housing programs understand
the array of forces that create slums and blight and are willing
to recognize and .take the steps within their power to prevent and
overcome urban blight.
The Workable Program is based on recognition that the Federal and
local relationship is one of partnership in the task, and that
Federal funds for renewal and housing projects cannot, by themselves, be effective unless localities exercise the full range of
their powers in community efforts on a sustained and coordinated
basis to the objective of preventing and eradicating slums and
blight.
3.
SUMMARY OF WORKABLE PROORAM REQUIREMENTS, The specific requirements of the Workable Program are based on the statutory objectives
described above and are designed to provide a flexible framework

J
CHAPTER 1
for organizing community efforts to eliminate and prevent slums
and blight. The Workable Program calls for progress in the following four areas:





a.
Code Adoption and Enforcement. The adoption of housing, building, and related codes, and development of an effective code
enforceme nt program which is at least adequate to de a l with
areas having high priority need for en£orcement, including both
blighted areas and basically sound but deteriorating neighborhoods, and which is gear ed toward eventual community-wi de
compliance with such codes.
b.
Planning and Programming. The establishment of a continuing
public planning and programming process which develops action
programs within a comprehensive planning framework for overcoming the major physical, social, and e conomic problems
related to the slum and blighted areas of the community, and
for establishing and preserving a well- planned community with
suitable l i ving environment for family life .
c.
Housing and Relocation. The development of a centralized or
coordinated program for assisting in the relocation of all
persons and business concer_n;, displace d by public action in
the community and the development of a proi~ ~ to expand the
supply of housing for l ow- and mode rate-inc0u1E. famili es on the
basis of equa l opportunity.
d.
Citizen Involvement . The establishment of programs designed
to achieve meaningful involvement of citizens, including poor
and minority groups , in planning and carrying out HUD-ass i sted
programs related to th e Workable Program.
A detailed explanati on of th e policies and r equirements for each
of the above four areas is s e t forth in subseque nt chapte rs of
this Handbook.
4.
LOCAL ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS. In carrying out Workabl e
Program responsibil i ties, many different local agencies and offices
will necessarily b e involved, together with various public a nd
private institutions, organization s , and individuals. For e xample ,
building departments, planning agencies, health offices, housing
authorities, urban renewal agencies, neighborhood organizat i ons,
private builder s and dev e l opers may b e involved to proyide the
wide range of resources needed to meet Workable Program obj ectives.
While no specific a dministrative s tructure i s r equired by the
Workable Progr am, a community will be expect e d to meet t he gene ral
r equirement for establi shme nt of an administrative me chanism

GUIDELINES FOR EVALUATION OF WORKABLE PROORAM APPLICATIONS
1.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF ADMINISTRATION. Workable Program applications will be evaluated in light of the varying conditions,
backgrounds, problems, and traditions of the par-ticula~ community.
In view of the difficulty of establisQing predetermined standards
of compliance having equal applicability to all communities
throughout the nation, the Department's review and determination
will be guided by the statutory requirements, the adequacy of the
community's proposed effort as measured against the magnitude of
the job to be done, and the constraints of available Federal, State,
and local resources. A second major consideration governing the
evaluation of application for recertification will be evidence of
reasonable continuing progress toward meeting the statutory goals
and objectives and -those set forth by the community.
2.
REQUIREMENTS FOR APPLJs;:.ATION CONTENT. The Workable Program is the
locality's program, and it i s the r esponsibility of the locality
to establish goals, action programs , and time t able s for accomplishment in each of the four elements discussed in subsequent chapters.
The goals, action programs, and timetables must be approved by the
Department, except where otherwise indicated in Chapter 5, pa r agraph 3. Because the emphasis is on the locality 's responsibi l ity
to develop its own program tailbred to its own needs and abilities
rather than on complying with speci fic Departmental requirements,
the community's application must contain sufficient evidence and
detail to permit an objective basis for review and evaluation .
Therefore, the application must clearly and specifically describe
what the community inte nds to do during the next certification
period in each of the four Workable Program elements. When applying for r ecertification, the application must also clearly describe
what ste ps the community t ook in the l ast period, in order to
provide a basis for measurement of the community ' s continuing
progress toward meeting the agree d-upon goals and objectives. In
developing its "work program" in each of the four elements for the
next certification period , the community must also show how the
proposed act ivit ies are related to a n analysis of the problems or
needs, and t o longer-range tar ge t s for accomplishment. For exampl~
in deve loping a program to meet the r equirement of Chapter 6 to
expand the supply of housing for low- and moderate-income families,
the applicat ion should show the relationship of it s proposed
program and timet ables to an anal ysis of needs in the community
and to its longer-range goals or targe ts for expansion of such
supply. The questions included in Application Form 1081 are
designed to e licit the information and evidence required to provide
a reasonable basis for approving or disapproving the community ' s
Workable Program Application.

CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION OF WORKABLE PROGRAM APPLICATION. In reviewing a community' s application for certification or recertification of a Workable Program, the Department's assessment will be
based on the followin g factors:
a.
Problem Analysis. Adequacy of the community's analysis of the
problems and needs where required by the Workable Program
elements.
b.
Long-Ra nge Goals . Adequacy and reasonableness of the longrange goals and targets for accompli shment proposed by the
community for overcoming such problems .
c.
Action Programs. Adequacy of the specific a ctions and timetables proposed- to be taken by the community during the next
period of certification to deal with the problems identifi ed,
in light of available resource s and the magnitude of the
problems .
d.
Progress. Demonstration of r easonable continuing progress
toward meeting goals and objectives specified by the community.
BASIS FOR DETERMINING ACCEPTABILITY . The acceptability of a community's initi a l appl ication for ; certification will be base d on
the adequacy of the problem or nee d ana lysis in each of the
e l ement s , th e extent to whi ch longer-range goals or targe t s have
been identifi ed in r e lation to need, and the adequacy of the proposed action programs, in light of both need and available
resources . The acceptability of an application for r ecertifi cation
will b e based on t he performance of the community in meeting the
goa l s, t argets, and timetable s agr ee d to at the last certification,
as well as on the extent to which the proposed l ev e l of e f f ort
r epresent s continui ng progr ess fr om the l a s t per i od t oward meeting
its longer-range targe t s . When unexpe cte d developments or changed
conditions prevent a community from meeting its agr eed- to obj e ctives and time tabl~s, the application for r e certificat ion must
include a de tailed explanation of the r ea sons .

1.
ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES
FOR WORKABLE PROGRAM CERTIFICATION
FILING OF APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATION. Form HUD-1081 is to be
used by the community to apply for certification or recertification of its Workable Program. Careful attention to the preparation of format and content will obviate the need for correspondence
with the community and thus help to expedite the review and
evaluation of the application and its approval.
An original and three copies of Form HUD-1081 are to be submitted
to the appropriate HUD Regional Office. An application for
recertification should be submitted at least 60 days prior to
expiration of the community's current Workable Program certification.
A community desiring to discuss Workable Program policies and
requirements or to obtain assistance and guidance in the preparation of the required Form 1081 should communicate with the HUD
Regional Office.
2.
GOVERNING BODY APPROVAL OF THE WORKABLE PROO-RAM. Before being
submitted to the Regional Office, the application for certification and recertification on Form HUD-1081 must be approved by the
executive head and the governing~- body of the community.
3.
NOTIFICATION OF APPROVAL OR DISAPPROVAL. The HUD Regional Office
will advise the applicant community of approval or disapproval of
the Workable Program application for certification.
a.
Reasons for Disapproval or Conditional Approval. Applicati9ns
may· be disapproved or conditionally approved for ~ither of two
reasons listed below; an explanation of the basis for such
action will be provided to the community.
(1)
Failure by the community to carry out the plan of action
and timetable it proposed for the last certification
period. In the event of disapproval or conditional
approval for this reason, the community will be advised
of the actions it must take to carry out the plans or
steps it initially proposed but did not take and did not
provide justification for not taking.
( 2)
Inadequacy of plans, programs, and timetables -proposed by
the community for the next certification period. In the
event of disapproval or conditional approval for this
reason, the community will be informed of the nature of
Page 1

CHAPTER 3
the inadequacy of its proposed plans and programs, and
will be requested to submit additional information needed
to remedy such inadequacies.
b.
4.
Time Limit. Applications that are conditionally approved will
provide a reasonable, definite time limit for accomplishment
of required actions. In the event of a conditional approval,
applications for financial assistance under the applicable HUD
programs will be processed, but final approvals will be withheld until the Workable Program is fully approved. ( Once a
community's application is approved, no further requirements
will be imposed during the period of certification.)
CERTIFICATION PERIOD. All Workable Program certifications are for
a two-year period. If certification of a Workable Program has
expired, the execution of contracts for assistance is precluded
with respect to the applicable programs listed in Chapter 1,
paragraph 5. Certification is deemed not to expire, however, but
rather to continue in effect for the following purposes:
a.
To provide Federal assistance under Title I of the Housing Act
of 1949 for any urban project in the locality with respect to
which a loan and grant contract is executed prior to the expiration date.
-~.-: i
b.
To provide Federal assistance under the United States Housing
Act of 1937 for any low-rent public housing being undertaken
by the locality with respect to which a contract for annual
contributions or capital grant is executed prior to the ex-.
piration date.
c.
To provide mortgage and home improvement loan insurance under
Section 220 of the National Housing Act with respect to property in the locality situated in:
10/68
(1)
The area of any urban renewal project for which a loan and
grant contract is executed prior to the expiration date,
or
(2)
Any urban renewal area not involving Federal aid under
Title I of the Housing Act of 1949 respecting which prior
to the expiration date the Secretary of Housing and Urban
Developnent has certified that he has approved the urban
renewal plan for the area, that such plan conforms to the
general plan for the locality as a whole, and that there
exist the -necessary authority and financial capacity to
ensure the completion of such urban renewal plan .

To provide mortgage insurance under Section 221(d)(3) of the
National Housing Act with respect to property in the locality
for which a pre-application analysis has been made by the
Federal Housing Administration and it has agreed in writing
to accept a formal application prior to the expiration date,
or located in the area of any urban renewal project for which
a loan and grant contract is executed prior to the expiration
date.
CERTIFICATION LAPSE. Where a Workable Program certification has
expired and a lapse has occurred , the community will be required
to show the progress made in meeting Workable Program r equirements
not only during the period in which the Workable Program was in
effect, but also during the lapse d period. Thus, it is important
that a community anticipate the expiration -date and initiate the
actions necessary to prepare an application for recertification
sufficiently in advance of this dat so that lapse may be avoided.

.'TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO COMMUNITIES .
7,
RELATIONSHIP OF WORKABLE PR(X;RAM AND URBAN RENEWAL REQUIREMENTS.
Communities intending to apply for urban renewal assistance should
be aware of the following statutory requirements:
In accordance with Section
lOl(d) of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended, the Department will
endeavor to the maximum extent possible, to assist communities in
meeting their Workable Program objectives. Field reviews of
progress will be made as necess~ry midway through the period of
certification and Regional Office staff will be available to the
ext ent resources permit to provide consultation , advice , and
t echnical assistance.
a.
No loan or grant contract may be e ntered into for an urban
renewal project unless the Workable Program 11 is of sufficient
scope and content to furnish a basis for evaluation of the need
for the urban renewal project, and such project is in accord
with the program. 11
b.
The plan for an urban r enewal project must "conform to the
general plan of the locality as a whole and to the Workable
Program . . . "
c.
In entering into any contract for advances for surveys, plans,
and other preliminary urban renewal work, the Secretary must
"give consideration to the extent to which appropriate local
public bodies have undertaken positive programs (through the
adoption, modernization, administration, and enforcement of
housing, zoning, building and other local laws, codes, and
regulations . . . ) for (1) preventing the spread or recurrence

CHAPTER 3
in the community of slums and blighted areas, and (2) encouraging housing cost reductions through the use of appropriate
new materials, techniques, and methods in land and residential
planning, design, and construction, the increase of efficiency
in residential construction, and the elimination of restrictive practices which unnecessarily increase housing costs."
d.
HUD will not authorize a Federal aid contract for a Neighborhood Development Program (NDP) unless there is in existence a
certified Workable Pro gram which is of sufficient scope and
content to furnish a basis for evaluation of the need for the
proposed NDP activities and such activities are in accord with
the Workable Program.
Communities are advised that because of the above statutory provisions, requirements for urban r enewal assistance may differ from
those nec essary for Workable Program certification purposes in the
following ways:
a.
Evaluation of Urban Renewal Need. With respect to subparagraphs a. and d., above, a community int ending to apply for
urban renewal or NDP assistance should ensure that the studies
undertaken in connection with the planning and programming requirement describ ed in Chapte;r, 5 are of sufficient scope and
quality to provide a basis for evaluation of the need for the
urban renewal project or NDP activities. In general, the
studies carried out under th e Workable Program should be
adequate to determine that the area is sufficiently blighted
or deteriorated to qualify for an urban renewal or NDP program.
Information should be included to illustrate both building and
environmental deficiencies, such as overcrowded conditions,
exce·ssive densiti es, and so forth . For further information on
urban renewal eligibility requirements see RHA 7205.1 of the
Urban Renewal Handbook, Chapter 1, General Eligibility Requirements. A community may, if it so wishes, supplement its'
Workable Program submission with other related studies having a
bearing, such as a Community Renewal Pro gram, General Neighborhood Renewal Program, or other similar studies.
b.
Renewal Plans. With respect to b ., above, the Urban Renewal
Handbook sets forth the following minimum elements of a general
plan: land use plan, thoroughfare plan, community facilities
plan, public improvement s program, zoning ordinance and map and
subdivision regulations . The preparation of such plans ( except
for a zoning ordinance or other comparable memo for guiding
land usage) is not a prerequisite to the approval of the
Workable Program, though many communities may find the preparaof them helpful in the development of general plans to guide

•
community growth and development, which is a Workable Program
requirement describ ed in Chapter 5. In addition, for purpose s
of approving specific urban renewal proj ects, a greater de gree
of planning completion may be required than would be necessary
for Workable Program purposes, e spe cially in smaller communities and others seeking initial certification or recertification.
c,
..,
Codes. With respect to c., above, a community intending to
apply for urban renewal assistance is advised that approval of
the housing, building , and other code r equir ements of the
Workable Pro gram will constitute compliance for urban. r e newal
purpose s with Se ction lOl(a) of the Housing Act of 1949, and
no additional information will be r equired for that purpo s e.
8.
AVAILABILITY OF WORKABLE PR03RAM AS PUBLIC DOCUMENT. Since th e
Workable Pro gram is a publi c docume nt , i t must be made available
for public perusal a nd examination. At the ir reque st, copies
should be made available by the locality to citizen groups and
organizations which should be encourage d to participate in the
'develoµn ent and implementation of the Workable Pro gram.
9.
GUIDES . Supplementary guide s will be issue d to provide communities
with advi ce and illustrat ions in conne ction with carryi ng out the
Workable Pro gr am, including des crJption of the s cope a nd conte nt
of compr ehensive pl~nni ng progr ams, ways of organizing and carrying
out effe ctive r e lo cation and code enforcement pro grams, and means
for encouraging and deve loping citi zen involvement. Pending i ssuance of the Guides , questions and r eque sts for technica l assistance
should be dire ct ed to the Regional Offi ce.

CHAPTER 7.
CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT
1.
REQUIREMENTS FOR CITIZEN I NVOLVEMENT. A guiding principle of Departmental policy is to in sure that citizens have the opportunity
to participate in policies and prograijls which affect their welfare.
Therefore, the Workable Program requires clear evidence that the
community provides opportunities for citizens, including those who
are poor and members of minority groups, to participate in all
HUD assisted programs for which a Workable Program is a requirement, and in the community's plan to expand the supply of low- and
moderate-income housing. (S ee Chapter 1, paragraph 5 for li st of
applicable HUD programs.) The community will also be expected to
show what progress has be en made durin g each certification period
to achi eve an adequate and effective degree of citizen involvement.
2.
PRINCIPLES AND PURPOSES OF CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT, The growing complexity of urban deve lopme nt and gove rnment organization make it
essential that widespr ead opportunities for citizen involvement
be created, including opportunities for poor and minority groups,
for many reasons. In some cases, existing local institutions
seem unable to identify the serious proplems of many citizens, as
the citizens define them. In turn, th e people may feel cut off
from their public r epresentative·s', and lack understanding of what
government is doing to and for them. At the same time, traditional
acts of pa rticipa.tion--voting , attendance at meetings, letters to
Congressmen-- are frequently ineffective in dealing with the immediate problems raised by increasingly l ar ge and complex programs
having direct impact on peoples' lives. For these reasons, new
forms of collaborative relationships between citizens and government, new means for participation in the decision-making process,
need to be developed. Recognizing th e need for experimentation and
innovation, the Workable Program does not contain any specific requirements for the form that citizen participation must take. Tne
choice of mechanisms depends upon the needs of the particular community and the structure of the local government. However, there
are certain principles and objectives which should underlie the
community's effort. One is that the community's responsibility
does not end with the establishment of a particular mechanism or .
set of mechanisms. The Workable Program requires continuing effort
on the part of the community to improve and expand the opportunities for creative forms of participation and collaboration that
both ensure repres entation by poor and minority groups. as well as
enable government to take effective, purposeful, and expert action
to deal with the problems and needs facing the community. It is
essentia l that the participation be satisfying, rewarding, and not
frustratin g if it is to achieve the basic objective of cr eating
and sustaining a vo luntary union and mutual trust between governand its citizens.

CHAPTER 7
3,
EXAMPLES OF CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT ACTIVITIES. It is important that
the community deve lop specific plans for achieving and maintaining
adequate and e ffective citizen involveme nt in the programs covere d.
A community may establish a new community-wide advisory committee
embracing all major interests~ including the poor and members of
minority groups or may create several new special-purpose groups,
or may make b ette r utilization of existing organi zations. Communities which already have establishe d ef.fective citizen advisory
committees for Workable Program purposes are encouraged to retain
them and improve their effectiveness. Communities participating
in the Mode l Cities program or other programs involving a high
degree of citizen participation are encouraged to coordinate the
citizen involvement activities under the Workable Program with the
citi zen pa rtic ipat ion r equirements of th ese programs , where
applicable. In addition to establishing appropriate organizational means for citizen involvement, a community may wish to
take such steps as the following in orde-r - t o- further the objectives
of this element:





a.
.. .. ,
,
,
b.
The developfilent of specific function s for c itizen committees,
such as having t hem hold public hearings , prepare comments on
Workable Program appli cation s , evalua t e proj ect pla n s , conduct
interviews and surveys of neighborhood residents ' views, etc.
The development of specific methods by which the community can
establi sh a basis for insuring there will be fa ir and reasonable r epr esentativeness of advisory committee s participa ting
in th e Workable Program. For example , one method by which to
compo se a community-wide advisory committee might be to choose
repres entatives in equal proportions, from private neighborhood
groups, government program-connected advisory groups, and civic
groups.
/
4.
c.
The establi shment of a planning group t o he l p develop new ideas
and t e chniques for generating greater involvement among poor
and di sadva ntaged groups .
d.
The pr ovision of funds and technical assistance to neighborhood
and other advisory groups so they may become be tter informed
and equippe d t o deal with complex redevelopment problems.
e.
The assignment of specific activities in HUD- assiste d pro j ects
to de signate d ne ighborhood groups, such as evaluating site and
design cons ide r ations, e stablishing information centers, and
making recommendations with r espect to housing project regulation s.

The City of Atlanta is pres ent ly engaged in eight Urban Renewal Projects
and five Neighborhood Developme nt Program Projects (3 in execution, 2 in
Thes e projects are fund ed jointly by the City and the

The funding arrangement calls for a contribution
equal to one~third of the Net Project costs from tha City with the· re~
rnaini.ng two--thirds being suppJied by ·che Federal Gov ernmen t.
The City's share may b e in the form of ca sh contributions or non-ca sh
grants-in-aid, th e se grnrits-in- aid are demo lition and removal work,
project or site i ~prov eme nt s , public and supporting facilities, and other s
such as credits fro~ construc~ion of public housings.

This points very emphatically to th e feet that our prese nt Urban Renewa l

The res ults of this policy can be seen in th_e long delays
encountered in the clo sing out of these projects, some of which date back
into the 1950 's·.
The cash used for these projects has cor:ie frcr:rt money set aside in the 1957

�IMPORTANCE OF ORGANIZATION
If the planning of the Model Neighborhood Program is to be successful,
it is absolutely essential that all key participants ·i.ir the program are well
organized.
This means that the following organi zational matters should be
accomplished before planning begins.
1.
The Model Neighborhood Executive Boa rd should be formed to act
as the ultimate authori ty of the pr@gram.
It should allow
representation from all levels of gover-JLment - city, county,
state, and federal; residents of the Model Nei ghborhood area;
and residents of the city-at-large.
2.
The Model Neighborhood staff should be f ormed, including the
executive director, the three chief planners and the technical
staff.
3.
Stable local organizations which adequ at el y represent the residents
of the various neighborhoods in the area should be in operation.
While those organizations should be representative of the interests
of all residents and give everyone a voice in their affairs, they
should not be se cumbersome that they cannot work effectively with
the planners.
In other words, it will be physica.JJ..v impossible for the planners
to carry all of their work directly to the 'grass roots' organizations
of the area.
This may be necessary for some key issues, but for
the most part planners will have to work with a small committee
of 10-20 persons if they are to accomplish anything worthwhile.
�COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION IN PLANNING
OF MODEL NEIGHBORHOOD PROGRAM
INTRODUCTION
The Model Neighborhood Program offers an excellent opportunity to bring
about basic improvements in one of the most problematic areas of Atlanta.
The area selected for the pr0gram contains all the varied and complicated
forms of urban blight which plague American cities today, from overcrowded,
su~standard housing to incompatible land use mj_xtures to poer street conditions
and inadequate community facilities to all facets of socio-economic poverty
and deprivation.
Most of these conditions have deep roots and are so
complex and of such a nature that it will take nothing less than a special
concentrated long-term effort to eliminate them.
So far no major city in
the country has been successful in eliminating them.
The Model Neighborhood Program can bring about t he special concentrated
effort which is needed to alleviate the conditions of the ' Model Neighborhood'
area.
It is designed to pool the resources of the city, county, state,
and federal governments along with tho se of private interest groups to
make a total attack on the serious and widespread problems of the area
for a period of several years.
The funds it provides will support the
pr gram through the planning and implementation stages.
However, if the Model Neighborhood Program is to avoid the mistakes
of many previous efforts to help slwn residents it is very important that
the pr gram be carefully planned and that local residents be involved
throughout all stages of planning.
The purpose of this report is to show
how c mmunity par ticipation ean be effectively fitted into the planning
f the M del Nei~hborho0d Pr gram.
-2-
�Hence the neighborhood groups of the area should be capable of
fer.ming such a cemmittee which can wor k with the planners and
relay this work to the 'grass ro0ts' groups .
It has been
suggested that the steering committee of the various neighb0rhood
gr oups in the area serve this function .
PROCEDURES FOR PLANNING
The federal government has set the pr ocedure s for the planning of the
Model NeighborhQod Program.
The period allowed f or planning is one year,
beginning with the date of the congressional announcement of the program
(Nov. 15, 1967 - Nov• . 15, 1968).
During t his period t he foll0wing planning
items have to be submitted to the fe de ral government for approval:
1.
Problem Analysis, Goals &amp; Progra~ Strategy Statement
2.
Five -Year Pl an
3. Firs t-Year Action Progr am
4.
Pl anning and Evaluation Progr am
S.
Statement of Administ rative St ructLITe for Impl ement ation
Of t hese planning submission requirements , the firs t one - the Problem
Analysis, Goals and Program St rategy'Statemeht - i s probably the most important,
as it will set the stage for the rest of the planning effort.
It will
establish the general orientation of the Five-Year Plan and the FirstYear Action Program and will initiate the general procedures for community
participation in planning.
Thus, it can serve as a guide as to how the
local residents will be involved in plam1ing.
-3-
�PROBLEM ANALYSIS, GOALS AND PROGRAM STRATEGY STAT~j§JIT-GUIDE TO COMMUNITY
PARTICIPATION IN PLANNING
The preparation of the Problem Analysis, Goals and Program Strategy
is divided into three stages or milestones:
Strategy.
Problem Analysis; Goals; and
It is intended that the Model Neighborhood planning staff and
the community will be working cl0sely toget her in this preparation so that
the best of their ideas will go into the f inal statement submitted to
HUD.
(1)
DISCUSSION REPORTS
The basis 0f the working relationship between the Model Neighborhood
planning st aff and community will cent er ar oLU1d discussion repor ts to
cover each milestone:
Problems; Goals; and Strategy.
These reports will
be done by the planning staff and designed to st imulate discussion among
t he r esi dents .
They will not be the f inal word on anything, but merely
present t he information available to the pl anning st aff so as to initi ate
community involvement and discussion on t he significant pl anni ng is sues.
The community will be able to criticize , add to and/or subtract from the
reports .
F0r exampl e , t he f irst r epor t will cover the subject:
Problem Analysis
and attempt to identify and survey the major condi t ions and problems of
the Model Neighborhood area which ju st ify treatment.
a.
It will:
define and document the major conditi0ns And problems as far as
available data will allow and according to f ollowing categories:
employment; housing ; schools; recreation ; land use; health
services; family, legal services; police protection.; ,and 'ether.
-4-
�b.
preseBt the i..nforrnati0n in a simple and concise manner so th2t
lay citizens will have a minimum amount of tr&lt;:mble in reading it.
c.
provide a brief questionnaire on which residents can rate the
priority of problems in their community according to the above
categories in (a).
d.
provide space in which residents caD criticize the contents of
the report, i.e., redefine problems, r eorganize data, contribute
additional ideas, etc.
(2)
DISTRIBUTION OF REPORTS
The reports are to be distributed to each of the six communicities in
the Model Neighborhood area.
They will include infonnation on the area as
a whole and on the particular community to which it is distributed.
It probably will not be feasible to get written responses from all
residents ef the area.
But perhaps certain people frem each community
could be responsible for surveying the responses of the residents,
summarizing them, and writing them down to be ret urned to the planning
staff.
The reports will be all wed to circulate for a maximum period of
two weeks.
This should give enough time for r esidents to gather up
their written responses te the report.
Also during this time it would
be desirable to have a general meeting in each community, whe r e residents
can _freely express their own ideas ab0ut the subj ect matter of the report.
After this circulation period which hopefully will br ing about
fruitful dialogue and exchanges between the planners and the cormnunity,
the planning staff should then be in a position to draw up final reports
on Pr blems, Goals and St rategy which fully incorporate the ideas of
�the residents.
These reports would then make up the final Problem
Analysis, Goals, and Pregram Strategy Sta tement .

The committee expressed its concern about a tract immediately to the north lying in
unincorporated . Fulton County which, upon approval of this annexation petition, would
become landlocked and asked if it could be included along with this petition.
Mr. Gladin explained this is one type of problem you incur in the petition route and
it could not be legally included, but could be brought up at the next filing period in
May, 1970.
The committee felt this would be highly desirable and should be encouraged at that
time.
Mr. Eugene Anderson, part-owner of the tract which would become

In answer to questioning by Mr. Cook, Mr. Anderson stated the C-1 zoning approved
by the · county was done so as part of an overall Medical Complex proposal which
subsequently fel I_ through much to their regret and loss, and there is no commercial
development in the area presently.
There being no further discussion, the_ matter was referred to Executive Session.
In Executive Session, upon unanimous vote, this petition was approved by the committee.
































1 . B. PUBLIC HEARING - ANNEXATION PETITION BY JOHN E. LIVADITIS GARMON ROAD.
There was no opposition present. A detailed report relative to this petition certifying
its compliance with State Enabling Le gislation and app licabl e city ordinances was presented
to ea ch committee member pre sent and the staff recommended approva l . The property
li es in Land Lot 177 of the 17th District and is approximately 2 acres in si z e. Mr.
G ladi n stated the property is presently zoned R- 1 (Reside ntial) a nd would be annexed
as R-1; that all services are available, or can be provided upon request (lettersto this

Mr. Li vaditis was present a long with his representative, Robert Smith . Mr . Smith
acknowledged the y were aware of the fact there a re no existing sewers to the property
and . the present plans are to use two septic tanks, but the y are hopeful of working out
an easement agreement with the adjoi ning property owner to connect with an outfall

sewer 150 feet from Mr. Livaditis 1 property line.
Mr. Cook called to Mr. Smith's attention a letter in the report from the Public Works
Department stating that sanitary sewer is not available for the property to be annexed
on Garmon Road and would not be available until approved by the property owners
along this section.
Mr. Smith stated they realized securing the easement would be difficult but were still
hopeful it could be worked out, and in the meantime, the septic tanks are an alternative.
Mr. Smith stated Mr. Livaditis is ready to begin bricking the house and doesn't have
any water; since there is a charge to tap onto the water fo r property outside the city, he
wanted to know if final approval of this petition by the Board of Aldermen would be
expedited to relieve him from having to pay this charge.
A check with the Water De partment indicated that if this committee approves the annexation
peti t ion today, they would not charge Mr. Livaditis to tap onto the water prior to final
approval of the petition. Messrs. Smith and Livaditis expressed their appreciation to the
committee.
The matter was then refe rred to Executive Session, and upon unanimous vote, this petition
was approved by the committee.

STATUS OF RECERTIFICATION OF WORKABLE PROGRAM
Pie rce Mahon y explaine d tha t the Planning staff is progressing rapidly toward completion
of work fo r recerti fi ca t ion of the Wo rka ble Prog ram for a two- ye a r period, ra t he r than
one ye a r which has been approve d in the past . He stated the re have bee n considerable
revisi ons in the req uire me nts of the p rog ram fo r recert ification, mak ing it much more
diffic ul t to pu t toge ther a nd committi ng us to a much more sol id app roach . He comme nted
brie fl y on some o f the new aspe c ts of the progra m, such a s the housing and re loca ti on
element and the departme nt's antici pa ted part icipa tio n in the HUD 701 p la nning p rog ra m.
He explained a federa l requireme nt fo r particip ati o n in the 701 progra m is that one
portion of the p lanning studies be a housing study; further, the person ne l situation
throughout the city , especia lly in the te ch nica l and p rofe ssiona l leve l', is getting' serious
and the Planning Department ho pe s to so lve some o f its prob lem s by hiring tempo rary
personnel on 701 planning programs w ho coul d move into permanent planning vacancies as
they occu r.
He went on to say these new requirements, particularly housing planning fo r low and
moderate income families, points up the critical need for the Urban Information System

for the city, because of the various and sundry data which can be obtained from it on
immediate notice, and he urged the committee's support in implementation of this system.
He presented a draft of "Workable Program Five-Year Goals II and stated the city wi II
be committed to these goals and emphasized the need to begin considering an advance
two-year budget.
Considerable discussion then ensued about the status of the Mayor's Housing Program.
Colonel Jones of the Housing Resources Committee stated that the city is about halfway
through the initial five-year program. He cited figures for the two and one-half year
period, stating we have under construction and completed approximately 8,000 units, and
we have in the pipeline more units than the original goal of 17,000. He sta ted, however,
a lot of !re units in planning are being lost because we do not have properly zoned
locations to put them on.
Mr. Cook asked on what basis units are classified as being in the "planning stage".
C·.
.•
Mr. Jones explained they are put in this category when a rezoning application is filed
and a proposal is submitted; if the zoning is denied, they are taken out; that more
zonings for this purpose have been denied than approved. He cited the loss of 21,000
units through recent rezoning denials .
Mr. Cook state d this doesn't concur with figures he obtained from the Planning Department.
Mr. Gladin explained the staff analysis referre d to was done about a ye ar ago and at
that time the zoning approvals were running about 80-90%; that the staff is in the process
of p reparing an up-to- date analysis o{ the housing program .
Mr. Cook ds ked for and was furnished with a copy of Mr. Jones' late st housing report.
Afte r a cu rsory examination, Mr . Cook expressed conce rn ab out the disc repancy in
fi g ures contai ned in the repo rt and those sta ted ora lly by Colone l J ones. Being a
me mbe r of the Zoning Committee, he state d he was tired of charges being made that
the ci ty's housing goa ls we re not be ing me t because of rez oning de nial s as he did not
be li e ve this to be the case, a nd he finds it very confusing and frustating to be unable
to justify his positi on whe n he is unabl e to secure re li ab le statis tics; that he would
Iike statisti cs differen ti a ting wha t pe rce ntage of the 8,000 uni ts quoted by Colone l
J ones is ac tually low and moderate income housi ng .
Mr. Kennedy stated he ha d ve ry strong rese rvations that this perce ntage was q uite low ,
that as stated by Mr. G ladi n , the Plann ing staff is in the process of ana lyz ing the
Housing Program for the la st two and one- ha lf years a nd he fe lt this report would
produce the type statistics Mr. Cook is looking for.

Mr. Gladin stated he realized the problems in working with the housing figures, and
again this points up the need for good management procedures, which need to be
standardized, and the Urban Information System for quick delivery of these statistics
over a period of time. He also commented on the need for more emphasis on the
city's total housing needs.
Mr. Cook directed the staff to prepare a letter for his signature to Colonel Jones
requesting clarification on the following:
l.
Is the actual number of units under construction and completed for the last
two and one-half years the 8,000 oral figure given by Colonel Jones, or
the 12,000 figure in his report of May 15, 1969;
2.
What percentage of this figure is for low and moderate income housing;
3.
The method used for determining what is low and moderate income housing,
the name of the projects and the number of units in each project.
He stated that in looking at the May 15 report and oral figures by Colonel Jones, it
would appear we a re moving backwards and this prompted Mr. Flanigen to remark he
had no doubt but what the program is "slipping".

With additi anal reference to the housing question, Mr. Mahony stated that at the
last meeting of the Housing Resources Committee, the Legal Panel discussed the need
for establishing a Housing Planning Agency within the city government to relieve the
Housing Resources Commi t te e membe rs who are present ly spending an inord inate amount
of time doing su rveys and research in the field of housing .
He stated the logical
place for such a housing function would be in the Planning Depa rtment, particularly
in light of the 701 planning p rogram; that the staff would like the committe e's support;
and he prese nted a le tter for Mr. Cook 's signa tu re as Chai rman of the Planning and
De ve lopmen t Commi ttee supporting the department's position .
Colone l Jo ne s sta ted tha t the Legal Panel has been studying this matter, but the y have
no t subm itted a posi tion report to Mr . Ale xander a nd he does not kn ow what type of
report w il I be subm it te d if and whe n it is, and he felt any action by t his committee
on this matter would be pre mature a t t his ti me .

M r. Gladin stated the letter does not request an y fina l a ction; tha t it mere ly makes
a recommendation for the Ho using Re sou rces Committee t o consider in making their
recommendation.
Colonel Jones stated he sti II felt the letter was in anticipation of something and
prematu re.
�Minutes

July 18, 1969 - Page · Six
Mr. Mahony commented that the Planning Deportment fee Is very strong Iy about this
and consequently wanted to take a positive approach, rather than waiting for a
proposal from the Housing Resources Committee and reacting.
The committee unanimously approved the letter and Mr. Cook appended his signature
thereto.
Referring back to the status report on the Workable Program, Mr. Gladin stated the
staff hopes to present the final draft to this committee July 28, 1969 for review, and
will request committee approval at a meeting on August I, 1969; it will then be forwarded
to the ne x t meeting of the Board of Aldermen where, hopefully, it will be finally
approved and hand delivered that same afternoon to HUD. This will give HUD ample
review time prior to the October expiration date for last year's recertification.

PREFACE FOR WORKABLE PROGRAM HANDBOOK
'Ihis Handbook sets forth a new approach and revised requirements to
guide localities that are carrying out a Workable Program for Community
Improvement.
It represents the first major revision of the Workable Program procedures since enactment of the statutory provision in 1954-,
We have several objectives which we hope will be achieved by the revision. One is to respond to the many changes that have taken place
in our urban areas over the years. Another is to ensure that our
requirements for the Workable Program are focused on performance by
localities in dealing with the problem of slums and blight~-not just
on compliance with operational procedures. Above all, the purpose is
to give local communities both flexibility an4 the responsibility to
develop effective programs to achieve the objectives of the statute in
light of the particular nature of problems and conditions existing in
each locality.
' '
'.Ihe substitution of performance standards for certain formal elements
of the Workable Program does not represent any easing in current substantive requi rements. Nor does the Handbook envision any reduction
in efforts by communities now participating in the program. The introduction of a performance-oriented approach hopefully will result in a
more effective attack on the major problems facing the community.
I am confident that, after more than a decade of experience with the
Workable Program, the Federal-local partnership has the maturity to
operate effectively under the new approach of this Handbook and thereby
we can make more meaningful progress toward overcoming the urgent
problems facing our cities and towns today.

FOREWORD
This Handbook sets forth revised policies, requirements, and procedures
for communities required to carry out a Workable Program for Community
Improvement in connection with the use of certain Departmental housing
and renewal programs to help overcome probiems of slums and blight.
-Workable Program Guides containing illustrative and advisory information
will be issued to supplement this Handbook.
The revised policies and requirements set forth herein are effective
upon issuance of this Handbook. Tnose communities which already have
submitted or· have substantially completed documentation in support of
an application for certification or recertification of a Workable
Program need not revise the material . However, communities may use the
revised forms described in this Handbook immediately . After March 31,
1969, all applications for certification or recertification of a Workable Program must be in conformance with the revised policies and
requirements.
The primary objective of the revision is to provide a fle:x:i.ble
and performance-oriented framework within which communities may demonstrate reasonable continuing progress toward· achieving the goals sought
by the statutory requirement for a Workable Program and those established by the community to implement them.
The revision also modifies reporting and documenta~ion requirements
and provides new criteria for evaluating community performance.
The revised Workable Program concentrates on four essential areas:
a.
The · adoption and enforcement of housing, building, and related
codes.
b.
The establishment of an effective action-oriented planning
and programming process.





c.
The developnent of programs to meet low- and moderate- income
housing needs and to meet relocation needs of families ,
individuals, and business concerns displaced by governmental
action.

�WORKABLE PROGRAM FOR COMMUNI'IY IMPROVEMENT
•
IRHA
7100.1
d.
I
The involvement of citizens, including poor and minority
groups, in Workable Program activities and in related HUDassisted housing and renewal programs.
The intent of this Handbook is to strengthen the Workable Program as a
flexible and meaningful tool to help communities organize and carry out
its community improvement programs. The Handbook envisions no lessening of effort by communities which h~ve been participating under
previous Workable Program guidelines. Rather, it is anticipated that
communities will make greater :grogress toward achieving the obj ectives
of the statute with the increased flexibility provided by the Handbook
to concentrate local efforts and tailor specific needs and problems
facing the community. Applications for certtfic?tion in accordance
with the requirements of this Handbook which propose a program with an
overall leve l of effort below that made in the past, will not be
acceptable.
Certifications and recertifications of Workable Programs will be e ffective for two years. Field reviews of progress will be made as necessary
by HUD Regional Office staff midway through the certification period to
provide advice and t echnical assistance.
HUD-assisted programs to which the Workable Program applies are listed
in Chapter 1, paragraph 5. A community intending to make application
for financial assistance under any of these pro grams should become
familiar with the policies and requirement s set forth in this Handbook.
An understanding of these policies and requirements will facilitate the
preparation of the application for certification or recertification of
the community 's Workable Program and thus help to expedite the processing of applications for financial assistance for specific programs.

CHAPTER 1
CHAPTER 1.
1.
SUMMARY OF WORKABLE PROGRAM PURPOSES AND REQUIREMENTS
STATU'IORY PROVISION. The Housing Act of 1949, as amended, requires
as a condition of certain financial assistance, the following:
11
•••
a workable program for co~unity improvement (which
shall include an official plan of action, as it exists
from time to time, for effectively dealing with the problem
of urban slums and blight within the community and for the
establishment and preservation of a well-planned community
with well-organized environment for adequate family life)
for utilizing appropriate private and public resources to
eliminate and prevent the develoµnent or spread of slums
and urban blight, to encourage needed urban rehabilitation,
to provide for redevelopnent of blighted, deteriorated, or
slum areas, or to undertake such of the aforesaid activities or other feasible community activities as may be
suitably employed to achieve the objectives of such a
program."
The statute also requires the ad.option and effective enforcement
of a minimum standards housing code, as described in Chapter 4.
In addition to the Workable Program requirements contained herein,
communities are advised that various HUD-assistance programs may
contain additionab separate requirements tailored to meet specific
program needs (e.g. relocation requirements of the urban renewal
program, general planning requirements for water and sewer, or open
space land grants). See Chapter 3, paragraph 7, for further
information.
2.
BASIC PURPOSE OF STATU'IORY PROVISION. The basic purpose of the
Workable Program requirement is to ensure that communities desiring to utilize funds for renewal and housing programs understand
the array of forces that create slums and blight and are willing
to recognize and .take the steps within their power to prevent and
overcome urban blight.
The Workable Program is based on recognition that the Federal and
local relationship is one of partnership in the task, and that
Federal funds for renewal and housing projects cannot, by themselves, be effective unless localities exercise the full range of
their powers in community efforts on a sustained and coordinated
basis to the objective of preventing and eradicating slums and
blight.
3.
SUMMARY OF WORKABLE PROORAM REQUIREMENTS, The specific requirements of the Workable Program are based on the statutory objectives
described above and are designed to provide a flexible framework

J
CHAPTER 1
for organizing community efforts to eliminate and prevent slums
and blight. The Workable Program calls for progress in the following four areas:





a.
Code Adoption and Enforcement. The adoption of housing, building, and related codes, and development of an effective code
enforceme nt program which is at least adequate to de a l with
areas having high priority need for en£orcement, including both
blighted areas and basically sound but deteriorating neighborhoods, and which is gear ed toward eventual community-wi de
compliance with such codes.
b.
Planning and Programming. The establishment of a continuing
public planning and programming process which develops action
programs within a comprehensive planning framework for overcoming the major physical, social, and e conomic problems
related to the slum and blighted areas of the community, and
for establishing and preserving a well- planned community with
suitable l i ving environment for family life .
c.
Housing and Relocation. The development of a centralized or
coordinated program for assisting in the relocation of all
persons and business concer_n;, displace d by public action in
the community and the development of a proi~ ~ to expand the
supply of housing for l ow- and mode rate-inc0u1E. famili es on the
basis of equa l opportunity.
d.
Citizen Involvement . The establishment of programs designed
to achieve meaningful involvement of citizens, including poor
and minority groups , in planning and carrying out HUD-ass i sted
programs related to th e Workable Program.
A detailed explanati on of th e policies and r equirements for each
of the above four areas is s e t forth in subseque nt chapte rs of
this Handbook.
4.
LOCAL ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS. In carrying out Workabl e
Program responsibil i ties, many different local agencies and offices
will necessarily b e involved, together with various public a nd
private institutions, organization s , and individuals. For e xample ,
building departments, planning agencies, health offices, housing
authorities, urban renewal agencies, neighborhood organizat i ons,
private builder s and dev e l opers may b e involved to proyide the
wide range of resources needed to meet Workable Program obj ectives.
While no specific a dministrative s tructure i s r equired by the
Workable Progr am, a community will be expect e d to meet t he gene ral
r equirement for establi shme nt of an administrative me chanism

GUIDELINES FOR EVALUATION OF WORKABLE PROORAM APPLICATIONS
1.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF ADMINISTRATION. Workable Program applications will be evaluated in light of the varying conditions,
backgrounds, problems, and traditions of the par-ticula~ community.
In view of the difficulty of establisQing predetermined standards
of compliance having equal applicability to all communities
throughout the nation, the Department's review and determination
will be guided by the statutory requirements, the adequacy of the
community's proposed effort as measured against the magnitude of
the job to be done, and the constraints of available Federal, State,
and local resources. A second major consideration governing the
evaluation of application for recertification will be evidence of
reasonable continuing progress toward meeting the statutory goals
and objectives and -those set forth by the community.
2.
REQUIREMENTS FOR APPLJs;:.ATION CONTENT. The Workable Program is the
locality's program, and it i s the r esponsibility of the locality
to establish goals, action programs , and time t able s for accomplishment in each of the four elements discussed in subsequent chapters.
The goals, action programs, and timetables must be approved by the
Department, except where otherwise indicated in Chapter 5, pa r agraph 3. Because the emphasis is on the locality 's responsibi l ity
to develop its own program tailbred to its own needs and abilities
rather than on complying with speci fic Departmental requirements,
the community's application must contain sufficient evidence and
detail to permit an objective basis for review and evaluation .
Therefore, the application must clearly and specifically describe
what the community inte nds to do during the next certification
period in each of the four Workable Program elements. When applying for r ecertification, the application must also clearly describe
what ste ps the community t ook in the l ast period, in order to
provide a basis for measurement of the community ' s continuing
progress toward meeting the agree d-upon goals and objectives. In
developing its "work program" in each of the four elements for the
next certification period , the community must also show how the
proposed act ivit ies are related to a n analysis of the problems or
needs, and t o longer-range tar ge t s for accomplishment. For exampl~
in deve loping a program to meet the r equirement of Chapter 6 to
expand the supply of housing for low- and moderate-income families,
the applicat ion should show the relationship of it s proposed
program and timet ables to an anal ysis of needs in the community
and to its longer-range goals or targe ts for expansion of such
supply. The questions included in Application Form 1081 are
designed to e licit the information and evidence required to provide
a reasonable basis for approving or disapproving the community ' s
Workable Program Application.

CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION OF WORKABLE PROGRAM APPLICATION. In reviewing a community' s application for certification or recertification of a Workable Program, the Department's assessment will be
based on the followin g factors:
a.
Problem Analysis. Adequacy of the community's analysis of the
problems and needs where required by the Workable Program
elements.
b.
Long-Ra nge Goals . Adequacy and reasonableness of the longrange goals and targets for accompli shment proposed by the
community for overcoming such problems .
c.
Action Programs. Adequacy of the specific a ctions and timetables proposed- to be taken by the community during the next
period of certification to deal with the problems identifi ed,
in light of available resource s and the magnitude of the
problems .
d.
Progress. Demonstration of r easonable continuing progress
toward meeting goals and objectives specified by the community.
BASIS FOR DETERMINING ACCEPTABILITY . The acceptability of a community's initi a l appl ication for ; certification will be base d on
the adequacy of the problem or nee d ana lysis in each of the
e l ement s , th e extent to whi ch longer-range goals or targe t s have
been identifi ed in r e lation to need, and the adequacy of the proposed action programs, in light of both need and available
resources . The acceptability of an application for r ecertifi cation
will b e based on t he performance of the community in meeting the
goa l s, t argets, and timetable s agr ee d to at the last certification,
as well as on the extent to which the proposed l ev e l of e f f ort
r epresent s continui ng progr ess fr om the l a s t per i od t oward meeting
its longer-range targe t s . When unexpe cte d developments or changed
conditions prevent a community from meeting its agr eed- to obj e ctives and time tabl~s, the application for r e certificat ion must
include a de tailed explanation of the r ea sons .

ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES
FOR WORKABLE PROGRAM CERTIFICATION
FILING OF APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATION. Form HUD-1081 is to be
used by the community to apply for certification or recertification of its Workable Program. Careful attention to the preparation of format and content will obviate the need for correspondence
with the community and thus help to expedite the review and
evaluation of the application and its approval.
An original and three copies of Form HUD-1081 are to be submitted
to the appropriate HUD Regional Office. An application for
recertification should be submitted at least 60 days prior to
expiration of the community's current Workable Program certification.
A community desiring to discuss Workable Program policies and
requirements or to obtain assistance and guidance in the preparation of the required Form 1081 should communicate with the HUD
Regional Office.
2.
GOVERNING BODY APPROVAL OF THE WORKABLE PROO-RAM. Before being
submitted to the Regional Office, the application for certification and recertification on Form HUD-1081 must be approved by the
executive head and the governing~- body of the community.
3.
NOTIFICATION OF APPROVAL OR DISAPPROVAL. The HUD Regional Office
will advise the applicant community of approval or disapproval of
the Workable Program application for certification.
a.
Reasons for Disapproval or Conditional Approval. Applicati9ns
may· be disapproved or conditionally approved for ~ither of two
reasons listed below; an explanation of the basis for such
action will be provided to the community.
(1)
Failure by the community to carry out the plan of action
and timetable it proposed for the last certification
period. In the event of disapproval or conditional
approval for this reason, the community will be advised
of the actions it must take to carry out the plans or
steps it initially proposed but did not take and did not
provide justification for not taking.
( 2)
Inadequacy of plans, programs, and timetables -proposed by
the community for the next certification period. In the
event of disapproval or conditional approval for this
reason, the community will be informed of the nature of

the inadequacy of its proposed plans and programs, and
will be requested to submit additional information needed
to remedy such inadequacies.
b.
4.
Time Limit. Applications that are conditionally approved will
provide a reasonable, definite time limit for accomplishment
of required actions. In the event of a conditional approval,
applications for financial assistance under the applicable HUD
programs will be processed, but final approvals will be withheld until the Workable Program is fully approved. ( Once a
community's application is approved, no further requirements
will be imposed during the period of certification.)
CERTIFICATION PERIOD. All Workable Program certifications are for
a two-year period. If certification of a Workable Program has
expired, the execution of contracts for assistance is precluded
with respect to the applicable programs listed in Chapter 1,
paragraph 5. Certification is deemed not to expire, however, but
rather to continue in effect for the following purposes:
a.
To provide Federal assistance under Title I of the Housing Act
of 1949 for any urban project in the locality with respect to
which a loan and grant contract is executed prior to the expiration date.
-~.-: i
b.
To provide Federal assistance under the United States Housing
Act of 1937 for any low-rent public housing being undertaken
by the locality with respect to which a contract for annual
contributions or capital grant is executed prior to the ex-.
piration date.
c.
To provide mortgage and home improvement loan insurance under
Section 220 of the National Housing Act with respect to property in the locality situated in:
10/68
(1)
The area of any urban renewal project for which a loan and
grant contract is executed prior to the expiration date,
or
(2)
Any urban renewal area not involving Federal aid under
Title I of the Housing Act of 1949 respecting which prior
to the expiration date the Secretary of Housing and Urban
Developnent has certified that he has approved the urban
renewal plan for the area, that such plan conforms to the
general plan for the locality as a whole, and that there
exist the -necessary authority and financial capacity to
ensure the completion of such urban renewal plan .

To provide mortgage insurance under Section 221(d)(3) of the
National Housing Act with respect to property in the locality
for which a pre-application analysis has been made by the
Federal Housing Administration and it has agreed in writing
to accept a formal application prior to the expiration date,
or located in the area of any urban renewal project for which
a loan and grant contract is executed prior to the expiration
date.
CERTIFICATION LAPSE. Where a Workable Program certification has
expired and a lapse has occurred , the community will be required
to show the progress made in meeting Workable Program r equirements
not only during the period in which the Workable Program was in
effect, but also during the lapse d period. Thus, it is important
that a community anticipate the expiration -date and initiate the
actions necessary to prepare an application for recertification
sufficiently in advance of this dat so that lapse may be avoided.

RELATIONSHIP OF WORKABLE PR(X;RAM AND URBAN RENEWAL REQUIREMENTS.
Communities intending to apply for urban renewal assistance should
be aware of the following statutory requirements:
In accordance with Section
lOl(d) of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended, the Department will
endeavor to the maximum extent possible, to assist communities in
meeting their Workable Program objectives. Field reviews of
progress will be made as necess~ry midway through the period of
certification and Regional Office staff will be available to the
ext ent resources permit to provide consultation , advice , and
t echnical assistance.
a.
No loan or grant contract may be e ntered into for an urban
renewal project unless the Workable Program 11 is of sufficient
scope and content to furnish a basis for evaluation of the need
for the urban renewal project, and such project is in accord
with the program. 11
b.
The plan for an urban r enewal project must "conform to the
general plan of the locality as a whole and to the Workable
Program . . . "
c.
In entering into any contract for advances for surveys, plans,
and other preliminary urban renewal work, the Secretary must
"give consideration to the extent to which appropriate local
public bodies have undertaken positive programs (through the
adoption, modernization, administration, and enforcement of
housing, zoning, building and other local laws, codes, and
regulations . . . ) for (1) preventing the spread or recurrence

in the community of slums and blighted areas, and (2) encouraging housing cost reductions through the use of appropriate
new materials, techniques, and methods in land and residential
planning, design, and construction, the increase of efficiency
in residential construction, and the elimination of restrictive practices which unnecessarily increase housing costs."
d.
HUD will not authorize a Federal aid contract for a Neighborhood Development Program (NDP) unless there is in existence a
certified Workable Pro gram which is of sufficient scope and
content to furnish a basis for evaluation of the need for the
proposed NDP activities and such activities are in accord with
the Workable Program.
Communities are advised that because of the above statutory provisions, requirements for urban r enewal assistance may differ from
those nec essary for Workable Program certification purposes in the
following ways:
a.
Evaluation of Urban Renewal Need. With respect to subparagraphs a. and d., above, a community int ending to apply for
urban renewal or NDP assistance should ensure that the studies
undertaken in connection with the planning and programming requirement describ ed in Chapte;r, 5 are of sufficient scope and
quality to provide a basis for evaluation of the need for the
urban renewal project or NDP activities. In general, the
studies carried out under th e Workable Program should be
adequate to determine that the area is sufficiently blighted
or deteriorated to qualify for an urban renewal or NDP program.
Information should be included to illustrate both building and
environmental deficiencies, such as overcrowded conditions,
exce·ssive densiti es, and so forth . For further information on
urban renewal eligibility requirements see RHA 7205.1 of the
Urban Renewal Handbook, Chapter 1, General Eligibility Requirements. A community may, if it so wishes, supplement its'
Workable Program submission with other related studies having a
bearing, such as a Community Renewal Pro gram, General Neighborhood Renewal Program, or other similar studies.
b.
Renewal Plans. With respect to b ., above, the Urban Renewal
Handbook sets forth the following minimum elements of a general
plan: land use plan, thoroughfare plan, community facilities
plan, public improvement s program, zoning ordinance and map and
subdivision regulations . The preparation of such plans ( except
for a zoning ordinance or other comparable memo for guiding
land usage) is not a prerequisite to the approval of the
Workable Program, though many communities may find the preparaof them helpful in the development of general plans to guide
10/68

•
community growth and development, which is a Workable Program
requirement describ ed in Chapter 5. In addition, for purpose s
of approving specific urban renewal proj ects, a greater de gree
of planning completion may be required than would be necessary
for Workable Program purposes, e spe cially in smaller communities and others seeking initial certification or recertification.
c,
..,
Codes. With respect to c., above, a community intending to
apply for urban renewal assistance is advised that approval of
the housing, building , and other code r equir ements of the
Workable Pro gram will constitute compliance for urban. r e newal
purpose s with Se ction lOl(a) of the Housing Act of 1949, and
no additional information will be r equired for that purpo s e.
8.
AVAILABILITY OF WORKABLE PR03RAM AS PUBLIC DOCUMENT. Since th e
Workable Pro gram is a publi c docume nt , i t must be made available
for public perusal a nd examination. At the ir reque st, copies
should be made available by the locality to citizen groups and
organizations which should be encourage d to participate in the
'develoµn ent and implementation of the Workable Pro gram.
9.
GUIDES . Supplementary guide s will be issue d to provide communities
with advi ce and illustrat ions in conne ction with carryi ng out the
Workable Pro gr am, including des crJption of the s cope a nd conte nt
of compr ehensive pl~nni ng progr ams, ways of organizing and carrying
out effe ctive r e lo cation and code enforcement pro grams, and means
for encouraging and deve loping citi zen involvement. Pending i ssuance of the Guides , questions and r eque sts for technica l assistance
should be dire ct ed to the Regional Offi ce.

CHAPTER 7.
CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT
1.
REQUIREMENTS FOR CITIZEN I NVOLVEMENT. A guiding principle of Departmental policy is to in sure that citizens have the opportunity
to participate in policies and prograijls which affect their welfare.
Therefore, the Workable Program requires clear evidence that the
community provides opportunities for citizens, including those who
are poor and members of minority groups, to participate in all
HUD assisted programs for which a Workable Program is a requirement, and in the community's plan to expand the supply of low- and
moderate-income housing. (S ee Chapter 1, paragraph 5 for li st of
applicable HUD programs.) The community will also be expected to
show what progress has be en made durin g each certification period
to achi eve an adequate and effective degree of citizen involvement.
2.
PRINCIPLES AND PURPOSES OF CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT, The growing complexity of urban deve lopme nt and gove rnment organization make it
essential that widespr ead opportunities for citizen involvement
be created, including opportunities for poor and minority groups,
for many reasons. In some cases, existing local institutions
seem unable to identify the serious proplems of many citizens, as
the citizens define them. In turn, th e people may feel cut off
from their public r epresentative·s', and lack understanding of what
government is doing to and for them. At the same time, traditional
acts of pa rticipa.tion--voting , attendance at meetings, letters to
Congressmen-- are frequently ineffective in dealing with the immediate problems raised by increasingly l ar ge and complex programs
having direct impact on peoples' lives. For these reasons, new
forms of collaborative relationships between citizens and government, new means for participation in the decision-making process,
need to be developed. Recognizing th e need for experimentation and
innovation, the Workable Program does not contain any specific requirements for the form that citizen participation must take. Tne
choice of mechanisms depends upon the needs of the particular community and the structure of the local government. However, there
are certain principles and objectives which should underlie the
community's effort. One is that the community's responsibility
does not end with the establishment of a particular mechanism or .
set of mechanisms. The Workable Program requires continuing effort
on the part of the community to improve and expand the opportunities for creative forms of participation and collaboration that
both ensure repres entation by poor and minority groups. as well as
enable government to take effective, purposeful, and expert action
to deal with the problems and needs facing the community. It is
essentia l that the participation be satisfying, rewarding, and not
frustratin g if it is to achieve the basic objective of cr eating
and sustaining a vo luntary union and mutual trust between governand its citizens.

CHAPTER 7
3,
EXAMPLES OF CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT ACTIVITIES. It is important that
the community deve lop specific plans for achieving and maintaining
adequate and e ffective citizen involveme nt in the programs covere d.
A community may establish a new community-wide advisory committee
embracing all major interests~ including the poor and members of
minority groups or may create several new special-purpose groups,
or may make b ette r utilization of existing organi zations. Communities which already have establishe d ef.fective citizen advisory
committees for Workable Program purposes are encouraged to retain
them and improve their effectiveness. Communities participating
in the Mode l Cities program or other programs involving a high
degree of citizen participation are encouraged to coordinate the
citizen involvement activities under the Workable Program with the
citi zen pa rtic ipat ion r equirements of th ese programs , where
applicable. In addition to establishing appropriate organizational means for citizen involvement, a community may wish to
take such steps as the following in orde-r - t o- further the objectives
of this element:





a.
.. .. ,
,
,
b.
The developfilent of specific function s for c itizen committees,
such as having t hem hold public hearings , prepare comments on
Workable Program appli cation s , evalua t e proj ect pla n s , conduct
interviews and surveys of neighborhood residents ' views, etc.
The development of specific methods by which the community can
establi sh a basis for insuring there will be fa ir and reasonable r epr esentativeness of advisory committee s participa ting
in th e Workable Program. For example , one method by which to
compo se a community-wide advisory committee might be to choose
repres entatives in equal proportions, from private neighborhood
groups, government program-connected advisory groups, and civic
groups.
/
4.
c.
The establi shment of a planning group t o he l p develop new ideas
and t e chniques for generating greater involvement among poor
and di sadva ntaged groups .
d.
The pr ovision of funds and technical assistance to neighborhood
and other advisory groups so they may become be tter informed
and equippe d t o deal with complex redevelopment problems.
e.
The assignment of specific activities in HUD- assiste d pro j ects
to de signate d ne ighborhood groups, such as evaluating site and
design cons ide r ations, e stablishing information centers, and
making recommendations with r espect to housing project regulation s.

The City of Atlanta is pres ent ly engaged in eight Urban Renewal Projects
and five Neighborhood Developme nt Program Projects (3 in execution, 2 in
Thes e projects are fund ed jointly by the City and the
planning only).
Federal Governmen t.
The funding arrangement calls for a contribution
equal to one~third of the Net Project costs from tha City with the· re~
rnaini.ng two--thirds being suppJied by ·che Federal Gov ernmen t.
The City's share may b e in the form of ca sh contributions or non-ca sh
grants-in-aid, th e se grnrits-in- aid are demo lition and removal work,
project or site i ~prov eme nt s , public and supporting facilities, and other s
such as credits fro~ construc~ion of public housings.
At pres ent, the
eight Urb an Ren rn-1 al project~ presently in execution are Slunrna rized as
follows:

$60 millionl
20 rn:i.llion
1 million
This points very emphatically to th e feet that our prese nt Urban Renewa l
program has been financed al mos t comp l e tely through the use of non-cash
grants·· in-aid.
The res ults of this policy can be seen in th_e long delays
encountered in the clo sing out of these projects, some of which date back
into the 1950 's·.
The cash used for these projects has cor:ie frcr:rt money set aside in the 1957
and 1963 Genera l Obl igat ion Bond Issue s and totaling $3.2 milliono
There-
fore, we have, at present, $2.1 million of unencu:.1bered fun ds available

Thi s would support a total program of $1909 mi l lion and would i ncrease

This means that to support th e fair ly light level of activity projected f.o r

I f any new areas are
added or the level of activity increased this woul d increase f rom $2 •.S to

Another possibility is a spec ial Neighborhood Development Program

�IMPORTANCE OF ORGANIZATION
If the planning of the Model Neighborhood Program is to be successful,
it is absolutely essential that all key participants ·i.ir the program are well
organized.
This means that the following organi zational matters should be
accomplished before planning begins.
1.
The Model Neighborhood Executive Boa rd should be formed to act
as the ultimate authori ty of the pr@gram.
It should allow
representation from all levels of gover-JLment - city, county,
state, and federal; residents of the Model Nei ghborhood area;
and residents of the city-at-large.
2.
The Model Neighborhood staff should be f ormed, including the
executive director, the three chief planners and the technical
staff.
3.
Stable local organizations which adequ at el y represent the residents
of the various neighborhoods in the area should be in operation.
While those organizations should be representative of the interests
of all residents and give everyone a voice in their affairs, they
should not be se cumbersome that they cannot work effectively with
the planners.
In other words, it will be physica.JJ..v impossible for the planners
to carry all of their work directly to the 'grass roots' organizations
of the area.
This may be necessary for some key issues, but for
the most part planners will have to work with a small committee
of 10-20 persons if they are to accomplish anything worthwhile.
�COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION IN PLANNING
OF MODEL NEIGHBORHOOD PROGRAM
INTRODUCTION
The Model Neighborhood Program offers an excellent opportunity to bring
about basic improvements in one of the most problematic areas of Atlanta.
The area selected for the pr0gram contains all the varied and complicated
forms of urban blight which plague American cities today, from overcrowded,
su~standard housing to incompatible land use mj_xtures to poer street conditions
and inadequate community facilities to all facets of socio-economic poverty
and deprivation.
Most of these conditions have deep roots and are so
complex and of such a nature that it will take nothing less than a special
concentrated long-term effort to eliminate them.
So far no major city in
the country has been successful in eliminating them.
The Model Neighborhood Program can bring about t he special concentrated
effort which is needed to alleviate the conditions of the ' Model Neighborhood'
area.
It is designed to pool the resources of the city, county, state,
and federal governments along with tho se of private interest groups to
make a total attack on the serious and widespread problems of the area
for a period of several years.
The funds it provides will support the
pr gram through the planning and implementation stages.
However, if the Model Neighborhood Program is to avoid the mistakes
of many previous efforts to help slwn residents it is very important that
the pr gram be carefully planned and that local residents be involved
throughout all stages of planning.
The purpose of this report is to show
how c mmunity par ticipation ean be effectively fitted into the planning
f the M del Nei~hborho0d Pr gram.
-2-
�Hence the neighborhood groups of the area should be capable of
fer.ming such a cemmittee which can wor k with the planners and
relay this work to the 'grass ro0ts' groups .
It has been
suggested that the steering committee of the various neighb0rhood
gr oups in the area serve this function .
PROCEDURES FOR PLANNING
The federal government has set the pr ocedure s for the planning of the
Model NeighborhQod Program.
The period allowed f or planning is one year,
beginning with the date of the congressional announcement of the program
(Nov. 15, 1967 - Nov• . 15, 1968).
During t his period t he foll0wing planning
items have to be submitted to the fe de ral government for approval:
1.
Problem Analysis, Goals &amp; Progra~ Strategy Statement
2.
Five -Year Pl an
3. Firs t-Year Action Progr am
4.
Pl anning and Evaluation Progr am
S.
Statement of Administ rative St ructLITe for Impl ement ation
Of t hese planning submission requirements , the firs t one - the Problem
Analysis, Goals and Program St rategy'Statemeht - i s probably the most important,
as it will set the stage for the rest of the planning effort.
It will
establish the general orientation of the Five-Year Plan and the FirstYear Action Program and will initiate the general procedures for community
participation in planning.
Thus, it can serve as a guide as to how the
local residents will be involved in plam1ing.

�PROBLEM ANALYSIS, GOALS AND PROGRAM STRATEGY STAT~j§JIT-GUIDE TO COMMUNITY
PARTICIPATION IN PLANNING
The preparation of the Problem Analysis, Goals and Program Strategy
is divided into three stages or milestones:
Strategy.
Problem Analysis; Goals; and
It is intended that the Model Neighborhood planning staff and
the community will be working cl0sely toget her in this preparation so that
the best of their ideas will go into the f inal statement submitted to
HUD.
(1)
DISCUSSION REPORTS
The basis 0f the working relationship between the Model Neighborhood
planning st aff and community will cent er ar oLU1d discussion repor ts to
cover each milestone:
Problems; Goals; and Strategy.
These reports will
be done by the planning staff and designed to st imulate discussion among
t he r esi dents .
They will not be the f inal word on anything, but merely
present t he information available to the pl anning st aff so as to initi ate
community involvement and discussion on t he significant pl anni ng is sues.
The community will be able to criticize , add to and/or subtract from the
reports .
F0r exampl e , t he f irst r epor t will cover the subject:
Problem Analysis
and attempt to identify and survey the major condi t ions and problems of
the Model Neighborhood area which ju st ify treatment.
a.
It will:
define and document the major conditi0ns And problems as far as
available data will allow and according to f ollowing categories:
employment; housing ; schools; recreation ; land use; health
services; family, legal services; police protection.; ,and 'ether.
-4-
�b.
preseBt the i..nforrnati0n in a simple and concise manner so th2t
lay citizens will have a minimum amount of tr&lt;:mble in reading it.
c.
provide a brief questionnaire on which residents can rate the
priority of problems in their community according to the above
categories in (a).
d.
provide space in which residents caD criticize the contents of
the report, i.e., redefine problems, r eorganize data, contribute
additional ideas, etc.
(2)
DISTRIBUTION OF REPORTS
The reports are to be distributed to each of the six communicities in
the Model Neighborhood area.
They will include infonnation on the area as
a whole and on the particular community to which it is distributed.
It probably will not be feasible to get written responses from all
residents ef the area.
But perhaps certain people frem each community
could be responsible for surveying the responses of the residents,
summarizing them, and writing them down to be ret urned to the planning
staff.
The reports will be all wed to circulate for a maximum period of
two weeks.
This should give enough time for r esidents to gather up
their written responses te the report.
Also during this time it would
be desirable to have a general meeting in each community, whe r e residents
can _freely express their own ideas ab0ut the subj ect matter of the report.
After this circulation period which hopefully will br ing about
fruitful dialogue and exchanges between the planners and the cormnunity,
the planning staff should then be in a position to draw up final reports
on Pr blems, Goals and St rategy which fully incorporate the ideas of
�the residents.
These reports would then make up the final Problem
Analysis, Goals, and Pregram Strategy Sta tement .

The committee expressed its concern about a tract immediately to the north lying in
unincorporated . Fulton County which, upon approval of this annexation petition, would
become landlocked and asked if it could be included along with this petition.
Mr. Gladin explained this is one type of problem you incur in the petition route and
it could not be legally included, but could be brought up at the next filing period in
May, 1970.
The committee felt this would be highly desirable and should be encouraged at that

Mr. Cook called to Mr. Smith's attention a letter in the report from the Public Works
Department stating that sanitary sewer is not available for the property to be annexed
on Garmon Road and would not be available until approved by the property owners
along this section.
Mr. Smith stated they realized securing the easement would be difficult but were still
hopeful it could be worked out, and in the meantime, the septic tanks are an alternative.
Mr. Smith stated Mr. Livaditis is ready to begin bricking the house and doesn't have
any water; since there is a charge to tap onto the water fo r property outside the city, he
wanted to know if final approval of this petition by the Board of Aldermen would be
expedited to relieve him from having to pay this charge.
A check with the Water De partment indicated that if this committee approves the annexation
peti t ion today, they would not charge Mr. Livaditis to tap onto the water prior to final
approval of the petition. Messrs. Smith and Livaditis expressed their appreciation to the
committee.
The matter was then refe rred to Executive Session, and upon unanimous vote, this petition
was approved by the committee.

STATUS OF RECERTIFICATION OF WORKABLE PROGRAM
Pie rce Mahon y explaine d tha t the Planning staff is progressing rapidly toward completion
of work fo r recerti fi ca t ion of the Wo rka ble Prog ram for a two- ye a r period, ra t he r than
one ye a r which has been approve d in the past . He stated the re have bee n considerable
revisi ons in the req uire me nts of the p rog ram fo r recert ification, mak ing it much more
diffic ul t to pu t toge ther a nd committi ng us to a much more sol id app roach . He comme nted
brie fl y on some o f the new aspe c ts of the progra m, such a s the housing and re loca ti on
element and the departme nt's antici pa ted part icipa tio n in the HUD 701 p la nning p rog ra m.
He explained a federa l requireme nt fo r particip ati o n in the 701 progra m is that one
portion of the p lanning studies be a housing study; further, the person ne l situation
throughout the city , especia lly in the te ch nica l and p rofe ssiona l leve l', is getting' serious
and the Planning Department ho pe s to so lve some o f its prob lem s by hiring tempo rary
personnel on 701 planning programs w ho coul d move into permanent planning vacancies as
they occu r.
He went on to say these new requirements, particularly housing planning fo r low and
moderate income families, points up the critical need for the Urban Information System

for the city, because of the various and sundry data which can be obtained from it on
immediate notice, and he urged the committee's support in implementation of this system.
He presented a draft of "Workable Program Five-Year Goals II and stated the city wi II
be committed to these goals and emphasized the need to begin considering an advance
two-year budget.
Considerable discussion then ensued about the status of the Mayor's Housing Program.
Colonel Jones of the Housing Resources Committee stated that the city is about halfway
through the initial five-year program. He cited figures for the two and one-half year
period, stating we have under construction and completed approximately 8,000 units, and
we have in the pipeline more units than the original goal of 17,000. He sta ted, however,
a lot of !re units in planning are being lost because we do not have properly zoned
locations to put them on.
Mr. Cook asked on what basis units are classified as being in the "planning stage".
C·.
.•
Mr. Jones explained they are put in this category when a rezoning application is filed
and a proposal is submitted; if the zoning is denied, they are taken out; that more
zonings for this purpose have been denied than approved. He cited the loss of 21,000
units through recent rezoning denials .
Mr. Cook state d this doesn't concur with figures he obtained from the Planning Department.
Mr. Gladin explained the staff analysis referre d to was done about a ye ar ago and at
that time the zoning approvals were running about 80-90%; that the staff is in the process
of p reparing an up-to- date analysis o{ the housing program .
Mr. Cook ds ked for and was furnished with a copy of Mr. Jones' late st housing report.
Afte r a cu rsory examination, Mr . Cook expressed conce rn ab out the disc repancy in
fi g ures contai ned in the repo rt and those sta ted ora lly by Colone l J ones. Being a
me mbe r of the Zoning Committee, he state d he was tired of charges being made that
the ci ty's housing goa ls we re not be ing me t because of rez oning de nial s as he did not
be li e ve this to be the case, a nd he finds it very confusing and frustating to be unable
to justify his positi on whe n he is unabl e to secure re li ab le statis tics; that he would
Iike statisti cs differen ti a ting wha t pe rce ntage of the 8,000 uni ts quoted by Colone l
J ones is ac tually low and moderate income housi ng .
Mr. Kennedy stated he ha d ve ry strong rese rvations that this perce ntage was q uite low ,
that as stated by Mr. G ladi n , the Plann ing staff is in the process of ana lyz ing the
Housing Program for the la st two and one- ha lf years a nd he fe lt this report would
produce the type statistics Mr. Cook is looking for.

Mr. Gladin stated he realized the problems in working with the housing figures, and
again this points up the need for good management procedures, which need to be
standardized, and the Urban Information System for quick delivery of these statistics
over a period of time. He also commented on the need for more emphasis on the
city's total housing needs.
Mr. Cook directed the staff to prepare a letter for his signature to Colonel Jones
requesting clarification on the following:
l.
Is the actual number of units under construction and completed for the last
two and one-half years the 8,000 oral figure given by Colonel Jones, or
the 12,000 figure in his report of May 15, 1969;
2.
What percentage of this figure is for low and moderate income housing;
3.
The method used for determining what is low and moderate income housing,
the name of the projects and the number of units in each project.
He stated that in looking at the May 15 report and oral figures by Colonel Jones, it
would appear we a re moving backwards and this prompted Mr. Flanigen to remark he
had no doubt but what the program is "slipping".

With additi anal reference to the housing question, Mr. Mahony stated that at the
last meeting of the Housing Resources Committee, the Legal Panel discussed the need
for establishing a Housing Planning Agency within the city government to relieve the
Housing Resources Commi t te e membe rs who are present ly spending an inord inate amount
of time doing su rveys and research in the field of housing .
He stated the logical
place for such a housing function would be in the Planning Depa rtment, particularly
in light of the 701 planning p rogram; that the staff would like the committe e's support;
and he prese nted a le tter for Mr. Cook 's signa tu re as Chai rman of the Planning and
De ve lopmen t Commi ttee supporting the department's position .

Mr. Mahony commented that the Planning Deportment fee Is very strong Iy about this
and consequently wanted to take a positive approach, rather than waiting for a
proposal from the Housing Resources Committee and reacting.
The committee unanimously approved the letter and Mr. Cook appended his signature
thereto.
Referring back to the status report on the Workable Program, Mr. Gladin stated the
staff hopes to present the final draft to this committee July 28, 1969 for review, and
will request committee approval at a meeting on August I, 1969; it will then be forwarded
to the ne x t meeting of the Board of Aldermen where, hopefully, it will be finally
approved and hand delivered that same afternoon to HUD. This will give HUD ample
review time prior to the October expiration date for last year's recertification.

The Chairman called the meeting to order and the following business was considered:

1. A. PUBLIC HEARING - ANNEXATION PETITION BY JULIUS SCHNEIDER MEDICAL
FOUNDATION, INC., COLUMBUS UNION CONFERENCE ASSOCIATION OF
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST AND EUGENE A, ANDERSON.

 

Charles Watkins, First National Bank Building, was present representing the three property
owners involved. Two other persons were present in support of the annexation. There
was no opposition.

The staff presented a detailed report to each committee member present relative to this
petition, certifying that it meets all requirements set forth by the State Enabling
Legislation and applicable city ordinances, and recommended its approval. The property
in question lies in Land Lot 29 of the I4th District of Fulton, formerly Fayette County,
and involves 69.1 acres; of the total acreage, 46.6 acres is zoned A-1 apartments; I7
acres is zoned R-3 and a smaller C-1 tract lies in Fulton County. Mr. Gladin explained
the city would be annexing this property under the zoning most closely related to the
existing county zoning, which in this instance is practically identical to the county's.
All city services to the area are available, or can be provided upon request (letters to
this effect from the appropriate city departments are included in the report).

In answer to questioning by Mr. Summers, Mr. Watkins stated the owners wish to come
into the city for the services that are available and to make their land more marketable
for housing and sale of apartments.
Minutes

The committee expressed its concern about a tract immediately to the north lying in
unincorporated Fulton County which, upon approval of this annexation petition, would
become landlocked and asked if it could be included along with this petition.

Mr. Gladin explained this is one type of problem you incur in the petition route and

it could not be legally included, but could be brought up at the next filing period in
May, 1970.

The committee felt this would be highly desirable and should be encouraged ai that
time,

Mr. Eugene Anderson, part-owner of the tract which would become landlocked,
appeared speaking for himself and Mrs. Schneider, also part-owner, stating they would
be willing to have their property annexed; that, however, he could not officially speak
for Mr. Steinmetz, another owner, but Mr. Steinmetz had told him he would be willing
to be annexed.

In answer to questioning by Mr. Cook, Mr. Anderson stated the C-1 zoning approved
by the county was done so as part of an overall Medical Complex proposal which
subsequently fell through much to their regret and loss, and there is no commercial
development in the area presently.

There being no further discussion, the matter was referred to Executive Session.
In Executive Session, upon unanimous vote, this petition was approved by the committee.

KRREKEEEEEE

1. B. PUBLIC HEARING - ANNEXATION PETITION BY JOHN E. LIVADITIS -
GARMON ROAD.

 

There was no opposition present. A detailed report relative to this petition certifying

its compliance with State Enabling Legislation and applicable city ordinances was presented
to each committee member present and the staff recommended approval. The property

lies in Land Lot I77 of the I7th District and is approximately 2 acres in size. Mr.

Gladin stated the property is presently zoned R-1 (Residential) and would be annexed

as R-1; that all services are available, or can be provided upon request (letfersto this
effect are a part of the report).

Mr. Livaditis was present along with his representative, Robert Smith. Mr. Smith
acknowledged they were aware of the fact there are no existing sewers to the property
and the present plans are to use two septic tanks, but they are hopeful of working out
an easement agreement with the adjoining property owner to connect with an outfall

Department stating that sanitary sewer is not available for the property to be annexed
on Garmon Road and would not be available until approved by the property owners

2. STATUS OF RECERTIFICATION OF WORKABLE PROGRAM

 

Pierce Mahony explained that the Planning staff is progressing rapidly toward completion
of work for recertification of the Workable Program for a two-year period, rather than
one year which has been approved in the past. He stated there have been considerable
revisions in the requirements of the program for recertification, making it much more
difficult to put together and committing us to a much more solid approach. He commented
briefly on some of the new aspects of the program, such as the housing and relocation
element and the department's anticipated participation in the HUD 70! planning program.
He explained a federal requirement for participation in the 70I program is that one
portion of the planning studies be a housing study; further, the personnel situation
throughout the city, especially in the technical and professional level, is getting serious
and the Planning Department hopes to solve some of its problems by hiring temporary
personnel on 70! planning programs who could moveinto permanent planning vacancies as
they occur.

He went on to say these new requirements, particularly housing planning for low and
moderate income families, points up the critical need for the Urban Information System

for the city, because of the various and sundry data which can be obtained from it on
immediate notice, and he urged the committee's support in implementation of this system.

He presented a draft of "Workable Program Five-Year Goals" and stated the city will
be committed to these goals and emphasized the need to begin considering an advance
two-year budget.

Considerable discussion then ensued about the status of the Mayor's Housing Program.

Colonel Jones of the Housing Resources Committee stated that the city is about halfway
through the initial five-year program. He cited figures for the two and one-half year
period, stating we have under construction and completed approximately 8,000 units, and
we have in the pipeline more units than the original goal of 17,000. He stated, however,
a lot of the units in planning are being lost because we do not have properly zoned
locations to put them on.

Mr. Cook asked on what basis units are classified as being in the "planning stage".

Mr. Jones explained they are put in this category when a rezoning application is filed
and a proposal is submitted; if the zoning is denied, they are taken out; that more
zonings for this purpose have been denied than approved. He cited the loss of 21,000
units through recent rezoning denials.

Mr. Cook stated this doesn't concur with figures he obtained from the Planning Department.
Mr. Gladin explained the staff analysis referred to was done about a year ago and at

that time the zoning approvals were running about 80-90%; that the staff is in the process
of preparing an up-to-date analysis of the housing program.

Mr. Cook asked for and was furnished with a copy of Mr. Jones' latest housing report.
After a cursory examination, Mr. Cook expressed concem about the discrepancy in
figures contained in the report and those stated orally by Colonel Jones. Being a
member of the Zoning Committee, he stated he was tired of charges being made that
the city's housing goals were not being met because of rezoning denials as he did not
believe this to be the case, and he finds it very confusing and frustating to be unable
to justify his position when he is unable to secure reliable statistics; that he would
like statistics differentiating what percentage of the 8,000 units quoted by Colonel
Jones is actually low and moderate income housing.

Mr. Kennedy stated he had very strong reservations that this percentage was quite low,
that as stated by Mr. Gladin, the Planning staff is in the process of analyzing the
Housing Program for the last two and one-half years and he felt this report would
produce the type statistics Mr. Cook is looking for.

over a period of time. He also commented on the need for more emphasis on the

Mr. Cook directed the staff to prepare a letter for his signature to Colonel Jones
requesting clarification on the following:

1. Is the actual number of units under construction and completed for the last
two and one-half years the 8,000 oral figure given by Colonel Jones, or
the 12,000 figure in his report of May 15, 1969;

2. What percentage of this figure is for low and moderate income housing;

3. The method used for determining what is low and moderate income housing,
the name of the projects and the number of units in each project.

He stated that in looking at the May I5 report and oral figures by Colonel Jones, it
would appear we are moving backwards and this prompted Mr. Flanigen to remark he
had no doubt but what the program is "slipping".

With additional reference to the housing question, Mr. Mahony stated that at the

last meeting of the Housing Resources Committee, the Legal Panel discussed the need
for establishing a Housing Planning Agency within the city government to relieve the
Housing Resources Committee members who are presently spending an inordinate amount
of time doing surveys and research in the field of housing. He stated the logical

in light of the 7Ol planning program; that the staff would like the committee's support;
and he presented a letter for Mr. Cook's signature as Chairman of the Planning and
Development Committee supporting the department's position.

Colonel Jones stated that the Legal Panel has been studying this matter, but they have
not submitted a position report to Mr. Alexander and he does not know what type of
report will be submitted if and when if is, and he felt any action by this committee
on this matter would be premature at this time.

Mr. Gladin stated the letter does not request any final action; that it merely makes
a recommendation for the Housing Resources Committee to consider in making their
recommendation.

Colonel Jones stated he still felt the letter was in anticipation of something and
premature.

Planning and Development Committee

July 18, 1969 - Page Seven

Mr. Gladin informed the committee members that the Sign Ordinance had been approved
by the Zoning Committee and he anticipated submitting it to the full Board of Aldermen
for approval Monday, July 21, 1969, and would like this committee's support at the
Monday meeting. He further informed them we will be working toward recruiting
personnel to implement the ordinance, that he has requested by letter that Mr. William
H. Wofford, Building Official, and the Personnel Board prepare a joint study on such
personnel needs.

RREKEREKER

Mr. Gladin stated he had received a communication from the BOND (Bass Organization
for Neighborhood Development) Community requesting to appear before the committee

to discuss being included in the 1970 NDP program; that he felt they should have this
opportunity and he would like authorization to notify them to appear at the next meeting
of the committee.

In answer to Mr. Flanigen, Mr. Gladin stated the freeway ramp question in the BOND
area had not been resolved, but there are continuing discussions with Ray Nixon and
the State Highway Department on the matter and he felt it could be worked out.

The committee concurred for the BOND group to appear at the next meeting.

RREKEEEEEEE

There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

another Workable Program until 1971. Therefore, we ask that you make sure
you maintain the required data pertaining to your department on a two-year basis.

The reporting period for the June 3l Workable Program for this year is
March 31, 1968 to June |, 1969, The Planning Department will be glad to
assist you in any way possible to get the work done on time. At least a month's
time is needed by us for assembling exhibits, typing and reproducing and generally
tying up loose ends. Therefore, we must have the sections back by June 1I6.

Sincerely yours,

PREFACE FOR WORKABLE PROGRAM HANDBOOK
'Ihis Handbook sets forth a new approach and revised requirements to
guide localities that are carrying out a Workable Program for Community
Improvement.
It represents the first major revision of the Workable Program procedures since enactment of the statutory provision in 1954-,
We have several objectives which we hope will be achieved by the revision. One is to respond to the many changes that have taken place
in our urban areas over the years. Another is to ensure that our
requirements for the Workable Program are focused on performance by
localities in dealing with the problem of slums and blight~-not just
on compliance with operational procedures. Above all, the purpose is
to give local communities both flexibility an4 the responsibility to
develop effective programs to achieve the objectives of the statute in
light of the particular nature of problems and conditions existing in
each locality.
' '
'.Ihe substitution of performance standards for certain formal elements
of the Workable Program does not represent any easing in current substantive requi rements. Nor does the Handbook envision any reduction
in efforts by communities now participating in the program. The introduction of a performance-oriented approach hopefully will result in a
more effective attack on the major problems facing the community.
I am confident that, after more than a decade of experience with the
Workable Program, the Federal-local partnership has the maturity to
operate effectively under the new approach of this Handbook and thereby
we can make more meaningful progress toward overcoming the urgent
problems facing our cities and towns today.

FOREWORD
This Handbook sets forth revised policies, requirements, and procedures
for communities required to carry out a Workable Program for Community
Improvement in connection with the use of certain Departmental housing
and renewal programs to help overcome probiems of slums and blight.
-Workable Program Guides containing illustrative and advisory information
will be issued to supplement this Handbook.
The revised policies and requirements set forth herein are effective
upon issuance of this Handbook. Tnose communities which already have
submitted or· have substantially completed documentation in support of
an application for certification or recertification of a Workable
Program need not revise the material . However, communities may use the
revised forms described in this Handbook immediately . After March 31,
1969, all applications for certification or recertification of a Workable Program must be in conformance with the revised policies and
requirements.
The primary objective of the revision is to provide a fle:x:i.ble
and performance-oriented framework within which communities may demonstrate reasonable continuing progress toward· achieving the goals sought
by the statutory requirement for a Workable Program and those established by the community to implement them.
The revision also modifies reporting and documenta~ion requirements
and provides new criteria for evaluating community performance.
The revised Workable Program concentrates on four essential areas:
a.
The · adoption and enforcement of housing, building, and related
codes.
b.
The establishment of an effective action-oriented planning
and programming process.





c.
The developnent of programs to meet low- and moderate- income
housing needs and to meet relocation needs of families ,
individuals, and business concerns displaced by governmental
action.

•
IRHA

d.
I
The involvement of citizens, including poor and minority
groups, in Workable Program activities and in related HUDassisted housing and renewal programs.
The intent of this Handbook is to strengthen the Workable Program as a
flexible and meaningful tool to help communities organize and carry out
its community improvement programs. The Handbook envisions no lessening of effort by communities which h~ve been participating under
previous Workable Program guidelines. Rather, it is anticipated that
communities will make greater :grogress toward achieving the obj ectives
of the statute with the increased flexibility provided by the Handbook
to concentrate local efforts and tailor specific needs and problems
facing the community. Applications for certtfic?tion in accordance
with the requirements of this Handbook which propose a program with an
overall leve l of effort below that made in the past, will not be
acceptable.
Certifications and recertifications of Workable Programs will be e ffective for two years. Field reviews of progress will be made as necessary
by HUD Regional Office staff midway through the certification period to
provide advice and t echnical assistance.
HUD-assisted programs to which the Workable Program applies are listed
in Chapter 1, paragraph 5. A community intending to make application
for financial assistance under any of these pro grams should become
familiar with the policies and requirement s set forth in this Handbook.
An understanding of these policies and requirements will facilitate the
preparation of the application for certification or recertification of
the community 's Workable Program and thus help to expedite the processing of applications for financial assistance for specific programs.

CHAPTER 1
CHAPTER 1.
1.
SUMMARY OF WORKABLE PROGRAM PURPOSES AND REQUIREMENTS
STATU'IORY PROVISION. The Housing Act of 1949, as amended, requires
as a condition of certain financial assistance, the following:
11
•••
a workable program for co~unity improvement (which
shall include an official plan of action, as it exists
from time to time, for effectively dealing with the problem
of urban slums and blight within the community and for the
establishment and preservation of a well-planned community
with well-organized environment for adequate family life)
for utilizing appropriate private and public resources to
eliminate and prevent the develoµnent or spread of slums
and urban blight, to encourage needed urban rehabilitation,
to provide for redevelopnent of blighted, deteriorated, or
slum areas, or to undertake such of the aforesaid activities or other feasible community activities as may be
suitably employed to achieve the objectives of such a
program."
The statute also requires the ad.option and effective enforcement
of a minimum standards housing code, as described in Chapter 4.
In addition to the Workable Program requirements contained herein,
communities are advised that various HUD-assistance programs may
contain additionab separate requirements tailored to meet specific
program needs (e.g. relocation requirements of the urban renewal
program, general planning requirements for water and sewer, or open
space land grants). See Chapter 3, paragraph 7, for further
information.
2.
BASIC PURPOSE OF STATU'IORY PROVISION. The basic purpose of the
Workable Program requirement is to ensure that communities desiring to utilize funds for renewal and housing programs understand
the array of forces that create slums and blight and are willing
to recognize and .take the steps within their power to prevent and
overcome urban blight.
The Workable Program is based on recognition that the Federal and
local relationship is one of partnership in the task, and that
Federal funds for renewal and housing projects cannot, by themselves, be effective unless localities exercise the full range of
their powers in community efforts on a sustained and coordinated
basis to the objective of preventing and eradicating slums and
blight.
3.
SUMMARY OF WORKABLE PROORAM REQUIREMENTS, The specific requirements of the Workable Program are based on the statutory objectives
described above and are designed to provide a flexible framework

J
CHAPTER 1
for organizing community efforts to eliminate and prevent slums
and blight. The Workable Program calls for progress in the following four areas:





a.
Code Adoption and Enforcement. The adoption of housing, building, and related codes, and development of an effective code
enforceme nt program which is at least adequate to de a l with
areas having high priority need for en£orcement, including both
blighted areas and basically sound but deteriorating neighborhoods, and which is gear ed toward eventual community-wi de
compliance with such codes.
b.
Planning and Programming. The establishment of a continuing
public planning and programming process which develops action
programs within a comprehensive planning framework for overcoming the major physical, social, and e conomic problems
related to the slum and blighted areas of the community, and
for establishing and preserving a well- planned community with
suitable l i ving environment for family life .
c.
Housing and Relocation. The development of a centralized or
coordinated program for assisting in the relocation of all
persons and business concer_n;, displace d by public action in
the community and the development of a proi~ ~ to expand the
supply of housing for l ow- and mode rate-inc0u1E. famili es on the
basis of equa l opportunity.
d.
Citizen Involvement . The establishment of programs designed
to achieve meaningful involvement of citizens, including poor
and minority groups , in planning and carrying out HUD-ass i sted
programs related to th e Workable Program.
A detailed explanati on of th e policies and r equirements for each
of the above four areas is s e t forth in subseque nt chapte rs of
this Handbook.
4.
LOCAL ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS. In carrying out Workabl e
Program responsibil i ties, many different local agencies and offices
will necessarily b e involved, together with various public a nd
private institutions, organization s , and individuals. For e xample ,
building departments, planning agencies, health offices, housing
authorities, urban renewal agencies, neighborhood organizat i ons,
private builder s and dev e l opers may b e involved to proyide the
wide range of resources needed to meet Workable Program obj ectives.
While no specific a dministrative s tructure i s r equired by the
Workable Progr am, a community will be expect e d to meet t he gene ral
r equirement for establi shme nt of an administrative me chanism

GUIDELINES FOR EVALUATION OF WORKABLE PROORAM APPLICATIONS
1.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF ADMINISTRATION. Workable Program applications will be evaluated in light of the varying conditions,
backgrounds, problems, and traditions of the par-ticula~ community.
In view of the difficulty of establisQing predetermined standards
of compliance having equal applicability to all communities
throughout the nation, the Department's review and determination
will be guided by the statutory requirements, the adequacy of the
community's proposed effort as measured against the magnitude of
the job to be done, and the constraints of available Federal, State,
and local resources. A second major consideration governing the
evaluation of application for recertification will be evidence of
reasonable continuing progress toward meeting the statutory goals
and objectives and -those set forth by the community.
2.
REQUIREMENTS FOR APPLJs;:.ATION CONTENT. The Workable Program is the
locality's program, and it i s the r esponsibility of the locality
to establish goals, action programs , and time t able s for accomplishment in each of the four elements discussed in subsequent chapters.
The goals, action programs, and timetables must be approved by the
Department, except where otherwise indicated in Chapter 5, pa r agraph 3. Because the emphasis is on the locality 's responsibi l ity
to develop its own program tailbred to its own needs and abilities
rather than on complying with speci fic Departmental requirements,
the community's application must contain sufficient evidence and
detail to permit an objective basis for review and evaluation .
Therefore, the application must clearly and specifically describe
what the community inte nds to do during the next certification
period in each of the four Workable Program elements. When applying for r ecertification, the application must also clearly describe
what ste ps the community t ook in the l ast period, in order to
provide a basis for measurement of the community ' s continuing
progress toward meeting the agree d-upon goals and objectives. In
developing its "work program" in each of the four elements for the
next certification period , the community must also show how the
proposed act ivit ies are related to a n analysis of the problems or
needs, and t o longer-range tar ge t s for accomplishment. For exampl~
in deve loping a program to meet the r equirement of Chapter 6 to
expand the supply of housing for low- and moderate-income families,
the applicat ion should show the relationship of it s proposed
program and timet ables to an anal ysis of needs in the community
and to its longer-range goals or targe ts for expansion of such
supply. The questions included in Application Form 1081 are
designed to e licit the information and evidence required to provide
a reasonable basis for approving or disapproving the community ' s
Workable Program Application.

CHAPTER 2

4.
CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION OF WORKABLE PROGRAM APPLICATION. In reviewing a community' s application for certification or recertification of a Workable Program, the Department's assessment will be
based on the followin g factors:
a.
Problem Analysis. Adequacy of the community's analysis of the
problems and needs where required by the Workable Program
elements.
b.
Long-Ra nge Goals . Adequacy and reasonableness of the longrange goals and targets for accompli shment proposed by the
community for overcoming such problems .
c.
Action Programs. Adequacy of the specific a ctions and timetables proposed- to be taken by the community during the next
period of certification to deal with the problems identifi ed,
in light of available resource s and the magnitude of the
problems .
d.
Progress. Demonstration of r easonable continuing progress
toward meeting goals and objectives specified by the community.
BASIS FOR DETERMINING ACCEPTABILITY . The acceptability of a community's initi a l appl ication for ; certification will be base d on
the adequacy of the problem or nee d ana lysis in each of the
e l ement s , th e extent to whi ch longer-range goals or targe t s have
been identifi ed in r e lation to need, and the adequacy of the proposed action programs, in light of both need and available
resources . The acceptability of an application for r ecertifi cation
will b e based on t he performance of the community in meeting the
goa l s, t argets, and timetable s agr ee d to at the last certification,
as well as on the extent to which the proposed l ev e l of e f f ort
r epresent s continui ng progr ess fr om the l a s t per i od t oward meeting
its longer-range targe t s . When unexpe cte d developments or changed
conditions prevent a community from meeting its agr eed- to obj e ctives and time tabl~s, the application for r e certificat ion must
include a de tailed explanation of the r ea sons .

ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES
FOR WORKABLE PROGRAM CERTIFICATION
FILING OF APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATION. Form HUD-1081 is to be
used by the community to apply for certification or recertification of its Workable Program. Careful attention to the preparation of format and content will obviate the need for correspondence
with the community and thus help to expedite the review and
evaluation of the application and its approval.
An original and three copies of Form HUD-1081 are to be submitted
to the appropriate HUD Regional Office. An application for
recertification should be submitted at least 60 days prior to
expiration of the community's current Workable Program certification.
A community desiring to discuss Workable Program policies and
requirements or to obtain assistance and guidance in the preparation of the required Form 1081 should communicate with the HUD
Regional Office.
2.
GOVERNING BODY APPROVAL OF THE WORKABLE PROO-RAM. Before being
submitted to the Regional Office, the application for certification and recertification on Form HUD-1081 must be approved by the
executive head and the governing~- body of the community.
3.
NOTIFICATION OF APPROVAL OR DISAPPROVAL. The HUD Regional Office
will advise the applicant community of approval or disapproval of
the Workable Program application for certification.
a.
Reasons for Disapproval or Conditional Approval. Applicati9ns
may· be disapproved or conditionally approved for ~ither of two
reasons listed below; an explanation of the basis for such
action will be provided to the community.
(1)
Failure by the community to carry out the plan of action
and timetable it proposed for the last certification
period. In the event of disapproval or conditional
approval for this reason, the community will be advised
of the actions it must take to carry out the plans or
steps it initially proposed but did not take and did not
provide justification for not taking.
( 2)
Inadequacy of plans, programs, and timetables -proposed by
the community for the next certification period. In the
event of disapproval or conditional approval for this
reason, the community will be informed of the nature of
Page 1
10/ 68
�WORKABLE PROGRAM FOR COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT
I
Rl!A 7100.1
•
I
CHAPTER 3
the inadequacy of its proposed plans and programs, and
will be requested to submit additional information needed
to remedy such inadequacies.
b.
4.
Time Limit. Applications that are conditionally approved will
provide a reasonable, definite time limit for accomplishment
of required actions. In the event of a conditional approval,
applications for financial assistance under the applicable HUD
programs will be processed, but final approvals will be withheld until the Workable Program is fully approved. ( Once a
community's application is approved, no further requirements
will be imposed during the period of certification.)
CERTIFICATION PERIOD. All Workable Program certifications are for
a two-year period. If certification of a Workable Program has
expired, the execution of contracts for assistance is precluded
with respect to the applicable programs listed in Chapter 1,
paragraph 5. Certification is deemed not to expire, however, but
rather to continue in effect for the following purposes:
a.
To provide Federal assistance under Title I of the Housing Act
of 1949 for any urban project in the locality with respect to
which a loan and grant contract is executed prior to the expiration date.
-~.-: i
b.
To provide Federal assistance under the United States Housing
Act of 1937 for any low-rent public housing being undertaken
by the locality with respect to which a contract for annual
contributions or capital grant is executed prior to the ex-.
piration date.
c.
To provide mortgage and home improvement loan insurance under
Section 220 of the National Housing Act with respect to property in the locality situated in:
10/68
(1)
The area of any urban renewal project for which a loan and
grant contract is executed prior to the expiration date,
or
(2)
Any urban renewal area not involving Federal aid under
Title I of the Housing Act of 1949 respecting which prior
to the expiration date the Secretary of Housing and Urban
Developnent has certified that he has approved the urban
renewal plan for the area, that such plan conforms to the
general plan for the locality as a whole, and that there
exist the -necessary authority and financial capacity to
ensure the completion of such urban renewal plan .

for which a pre-application analysis has been made by the
Federal Housing Administration and it has agreed in writing
to accept a formal application prior to the expiration date,
or located in the area of any urban renewal project for which
a loan and grant contract is executed prior to the expiration
date.
CERTIFICATION LAPSE. Where a Workable Program certification has
expired and a lapse has occurred , the community will be required
to show the progress made in meeting Workable Program r equirements
not only during the period in which the Workable Program was in
effect, but also during the lapse d period. Thus, it is important
that a community anticipate the expiration -date and initiate the
actions necessary to prepare an application for recertification
sufficiently in advance of this dat so that lapse may be avoided.

RELATIONSHIP OF WORKABLE PR(X;RAM AND URBAN RENEWAL REQUIREMENTS.
Communities intending to apply for urban renewal assistance should
be aware of the following statutory requirements:
In accordance with Section
lOl(d) of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended, the Department will
endeavor to the maximum extent possible, to assist communities in
meeting their Workable Program objectives. Field reviews of
progress will be made as necess~ry midway through the period of
certification and Regional Office staff will be available to the
ext ent resources permit to provide consultation , advice , and
t echnical assistance.
a.
No loan or grant contract may be e ntered into for an urban
renewal project unless the Workable Program 11 is of sufficient
scope and content to furnish a basis for evaluation of the need
for the urban renewal project, and such project is in accord
with the program. 11
b.
The plan for an urban r enewal project must "conform to the
general plan of the locality as a whole and to the Workable
Program . . . "
c.
In entering into any contract for advances for surveys, plans,
and other preliminary urban renewal work, the Secretary must
"give consideration to the extent to which appropriate local
public bodies have undertaken positive programs (through the
adoption, modernization, administration, and enforcement of
housing, zoning, building and other local laws, codes, and
regulations . . . ) for (1) preventing the spread or recurrence

in the community of slums and blighted areas, and (2) encouraging housing cost reductions through the use of appropriate
new materials, techniques, and methods in land and residential
planning, design, and construction, the increase of efficiency
in residential construction, and the elimination of restrictive practices which unnecessarily increase housing costs."
d.
HUD will not authorize a Federal aid contract for a Neighborhood Development Program (NDP) unless there is in existence a
certified Workable Pro gram which is of sufficient scope and
content to furnish a basis for evaluation of the need for the
proposed NDP activities and such activities are in accord with
the Workable Program.
Communities are advised that because of the above statutory provisions, requirements for urban r enewal assistance may differ from
those nec essary for Workable Program certification purposes in the
following ways:
a.
Evaluation of Urban Renewal Need. With respect to subparagraphs a. and d., above, a community int ending to apply for
urban renewal or NDP assistance should ensure that the studies
undertaken in connection with the planning and programming requirement describ ed in Chapte;r, 5 are of sufficient scope and
quality to provide a basis for evaluation of the need for the
urban renewal project or NDP activities. In general, the
studies carried out under th e Workable Program should be
adequate to determine that the area is sufficiently blighted
or deteriorated to qualify for an urban renewal or NDP program.
Information should be included to illustrate both building and
environmental deficiencies, such as overcrowded conditions,
exce·ssive densiti es, and so forth . For further information on
urban renewal eligibility requirements see RHA 7205.1 of the
Urban Renewal Handbook, Chapter 1, General Eligibility Requirements. A community may, if it so wishes, supplement its'
Workable Program submission with other related studies having a
bearing, such as a Community Renewal Pro gram, General Neighborhood Renewal Program, or other similar studies.
b.
Renewal Plans. With respect to b ., above, the Urban Renewal
Handbook sets forth the following minimum elements of a general
plan: land use plan, thoroughfare plan, community facilities
plan, public improvement s program, zoning ordinance and map and
subdivision regulations . The preparation of such plans ( except
for a zoning ordinance or other comparable memo for guiding
land usage) is not a prerequisite to the approval of the
Workable Program, though many communities may find the preparaof them helpful in the development of general plans to guide

•
community growth and development, which is a Workable Program
requirement describ ed in Chapter 5. In addition, for purpose s
of approving specific urban renewal proj ects, a greater de gree
of planning completion may be required than would be necessary
for Workable Program purposes, e spe cially in smaller communities and others seeking initial certification or recertification.
c,
..,
Codes. With respect to c., above, a community intending to
apply for urban renewal assistance is advised that approval of
the housing, building , and other code r equir ements of the
Workable Pro gram will constitute compliance for urban. r e newal
purpose s with Se ction lOl(a) of the Housing Act of 1949, and
no additional information will be r equired for that purpo s e.
8.
AVAILABILITY OF WORKABLE PR03RAM AS PUBLIC DOCUMENT. Since th e
Workable Pro gram is a publi c docume nt , i t must be made available
for public perusal a nd examination. At the ir reque st, copies
should be made available by the locality to citizen groups and
organizations which should be encourage d to participate in the
'develoµn ent and implementation of the Workable Pro gram.
9.
GUIDES . Supplementary guide s will be issue d to provide communities
with advi ce and illustrat ions in conne ction with carryi ng out the
Workable Pro gr am, including des crJption of the s cope a nd conte nt
of compr ehensive pl~nni ng progr ams, ways of organizing and carrying
out effe ctive r e lo cation and code enforcement pro grams, and means
for encouraging and deve loping citi zen involvement. Pending i ssuance of the Guides , questions and r eque sts for technica l assistance
should be dire ct ed to the Regional Offi ce.

CHAPTER 7.
CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT
1.
REQUIREMENTS FOR CITIZEN I NVOLVEMENT. A guiding principle of Departmental policy is to in sure that citizens have the opportunity
to participate in policies and prograijls which affect their welfare.
Therefore, the Workable Program requires clear evidence that the
community provides opportunities for citizens, including those who
are poor and members of minority groups, to participate in all
HUD assisted programs for which a Workable Program is a requirement, and in the community's plan to expand the supply of low- and
moderate-income housing. (S ee Chapter 1, paragraph 5 for li st of
applicable HUD programs.) The community will also be expected to
show what progress has be en made durin g each certification period
to achi eve an adequate and effective degree of citizen involvement.
2.
PRINCIPLES AND PURPOSES OF CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT, The growing complexity of urban deve lopme nt and gove rnment organization make it
essential that widespr ead opportunities for citizen involvement
be created, including opportunities for poor and minority groups,
for many reasons. In some cases, existing local institutions
seem unable to identify the serious proplems of many citizens, as
the citizens define them. In turn, th e people may feel cut off
from their public r epresentative·s', and lack understanding of what
government is doing to and for them. At the same time, traditional
acts of pa rticipa.tion--voting , attendance at meetings, letters to
Congressmen-- are frequently ineffective in dealing with the immediate problems raised by increasingly l ar ge and complex programs
having direct impact on peoples' lives. For these reasons, new
forms of collaborative relationships between citizens and government, new means for participation in the decision-making process,
need to be developed. Recognizing th e need for experimentation and
innovation, the Workable Program does not contain any specific requirements for the form that citizen participation must take. Tne
choice of mechanisms depends upon the needs of the particular community and the structure of the local government. However, there
are certain principles and objectives which should underlie the
community's effort. One is that the community's responsibility
does not end with the establishment of a particular mechanism or .
set of mechanisms. The Workable Program requires continuing effort
on the part of the community to improve and expand the opportunities for creative forms of participation and collaboration that
both ensure repres entation by poor and minority groups. as well as
enable government to take effective, purposeful, and expert action
to deal with the problems and needs facing the community. It is
essentia l that the participation be satisfying, rewarding, and not
frustratin g if it is to achieve the basic objective of cr eating
and sustaining a vo luntary union and mutual trust between governand its citizens.

CHAPTER 7
3,
EXAMPLES OF CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT ACTIVITIES. It is important that
the community deve lop specific plans for achieving and maintaining
adequate and e ffective citizen involveme nt in the programs covere d.
A community may establish a new community-wide advisory committee
embracing all major interests~ including the poor and members of
minority groups or may create several new special-purpose groups,
or may make b ette r utilization of existing organi zations. Communities which already have establishe d ef.fective citizen advisory
committees for Workable Program purposes are encouraged to retain
them and improve their effectiveness. Communities participating
in the Mode l Cities program or other programs involving a high
degree of citizen participation are encouraged to coordinate the
citizen involvement activities under the Workable Program with the
citi zen pa rtic ipat ion r equirements of th ese programs , where
applicable. In addition to establishing appropriate organizational means for citizen involvement, a community may wish to
take such steps as the following in orde-r - t o- further the objectives
of this element:





a.

,
b.
The developfilent of specific function s for c itizen committees,
such as having t hem hold public hearings , prepare comments on
Workable Program appli cation s , evalua t e proj ect pla n s , conduct
interviews and surveys of neighborhood residents ' views, etc.
The development of specific methods by which the community can
establi sh a basis for insuring there will be fa ir and reasonable r epr esentativeness of advisory committee s participa ting
in th e Workable Program. For example , one method by which to
compo se a community-wide advisory committee might be to choose
repres entatives in equal proportions, from private neighborhood
groups, government program-connected advisory groups, and civic
groups.

WORKABLE PROGRAM

COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT

October 1968

A HUD HANDBOOK

U. §. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
WASHINGTON, D. C. 20410
 

PREFACE FOR WORKABLE PROGRAM HANDBOOK

This Handbook sets forth a new approach and revised requirements to
guide localities that are carrying out a Workable Program for Community
Improvement.

It represents the first major revision of the Workable Program proce-
dures since enactment of the statutory provision in 195).

We have several objectives which we hope will be achieved by the re-
vision. One is to respond to the many changes that have taken place
in our urban areas over the years. Another is to ensure that our
requirements for the Workable Program are focused on performance by
localities in dealing with the problem of slums and blight--not just
on compliance with operational procedures. Above all, the purpose is
to give local communities both flexibility and the responsibility to
develop effective programs to achieve the objectives of the statute in
light of the particular nature of problems and conditions existing in
each locality.

The substitution of performance standards for certain formal elements
of the Workable Program does not represent any easing in current sub-
stantive requirements. Nor does the Handbook envision any reduction

in efforts by communities now participating in the program. The intro-
duction of a performance-oriented approach hopefully will result in a
more effective attack on the major problems facing the community.

I am confident that, after more than a decade of experience with the
Workable Program, the Federal-local partnership has the maturity to
operate effectively under the new approach of this Handbook and thereby
we can make more meaningful progress toward overcoming the urgent
problems facing our cities and towns today.

FOREWORD

This Handbook sets forth revised policies, requirements, and procedures
for communities required to carry out a Workable Program for Community
Improvement in connection with the use of certain Departmental housing
and renewal programs to help overcome problems of slums and blight.

Workable Program Guides containing illustrative and advisory information
will be issued to supplement this Handbook.

The revised policies and requirements set forth herein are effective
upon issuance of this Handbook. Those communities which already have
submitted or have substantially completed documentation in support of
an application for certification or recertification of a Workable
Program need not revise the material. However, communities may use the
revised forms described in this Handbook immediately. After March 31,
1969, all applications for certification or recertification of a Work-
able Program must be in conformance with the revised policies and
requirements.

The primary objective of the revision is to provide a flexible

and performance-oriented framework within which communities may demon-
strate reasonable continuing progress toward achieving the goals sought
by the statutory requirement for a Workable Program and those estab-
lished by the community to implement them.

The revision also modifies reporting and documentation requirements
and provides new criteria for evaluating community performance.

The revised Workable Program concentrates on four essential areas:

a. The adoption and enforcement of housing, building, and related
codes.

b. The establishment of an effective action-oriented planning
* and programming process.

c. The development of programs to meet low- and moderate-income
housing needs and to meet relocation needs of families,

individuals, and business concerns displaced by governmental
action.

 

ii 11/68
WORKABLE PROGRAM FOR COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT

 

RHA 7100.1

 

 

 

 

d. The involvement of citizens, including poor and minority
groups, in Workable Program activities and in related HUD-
assisted housing and renewal programs.

The intent of this Handbook is to strengthén the Workable Program as a
flexible and meaningful tool to help communities organize and carry out
its community improvement programs. The Handbook envisions no lessen-
ing of effort by communities which have been participating under
previous Workable Program guidelines. Rather, it is anticipated that
communities will make greater progress toward achieving the objectives
of the statute with the increased flexibility provided by the Handbook
to concentrate local efforts and tailor specific needs and problems
facing the community. Applications for certification in accordance
with the requirements of this Handbook which propose a program with an
overall level of effort below that made in the past, will not be
acceptable.

Certifications and recertifications of Workable Programs will be effec-
tive for two years. Field reviews of progress will be made as necessary
by HUD Regional Office staff midway through the certification period to
provide advice and technical assistance. ;

HUD-assisted programs to which the Workable Program applies are listed
in Chapter 1, paragraph 5. A community intending to make application
for financial assistance under any of these programs should become
familiar with the policies and requirements set forth in this Handbook.
An understanding of these policies and requirements will facilitate the
preparation of the application for certification or recertification of
the community's Workable Program and thus help to expedite the process-
ing of applications for financial assistance for specific programs.

CHAPTER 1

 

CHAPTER 1. SUMMARY OF WORKABLE PROGRAM PURPOSES AND REQUIREMENTS

Le STATUTORY PROVISION. The Housing Act of 1949, as amended, requires

as a condition of certain financial assistance, the following:

". . . a workable program for community improvement (which

shall include an official plan of action, as it exists
from time to time, for effectively dealing with the problem
of urban slums and blight within the community and for the
establishment and preservation of a well-planned community
with well-organized environment for adequate family life)
for utilizing appropriate private and public resources to
eliminate and prevent the development or spread of slums
and urban blight, to encourage needed urban rehabilitation,
to provide for redevelopment of blighted, deteriorated, or
slum areas, or to undertake such of the aforesaid activi-
ties or other feasible community activities as may be
suitably employed to achieve the objectives of such a
program."

The statute also requires the adoption and effective enforcement
of a minimum standards housing code, as described in Chapter 4.

In addition to the Workable Program requirements contained herein,
communities are advised that various HUD-assistance programs may
contain additional separate requirements tailored to meet specific
program needs (e.g. relocation requirements of the urban renewal
program, general planning requirements for water and sewer, or open
space land grants). See Chapter 3, paragraph 7, for further
information.

2. BASIC PURPOSE OF STATUTORY PROVISION. The basic purpose of the
Workable Program requirement is to ensure that communities desir-
ing to utilize funds for renewal and housing programs understand
the array of forces that create slums and blight and are willing
to recognize and take the steps within their power to prevent and
overcome urban blight.

 

The Workable Program is based on recognition that the Federal and
local relationship is one of partnership in the task, and that
Federal funds for renewal and housing projects cannot, by them-
selves, be effective unless localities exercise the full range of
their powers in community efforts on a sustained and coordinated
basis to the objective of preventing and eradicating slums and
blight.

3. | SUMMARY OF WORKABLE PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS. The specific require-
ments of the Workable Program are based on the statutory objectives
described above and are designed to provide a flexible framework

 

 

Page 1 11/63
WORKABLE PROGRAM FOR COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT

 

 

RHA 7100.1

 

 

CHAPTER 1

 

for organizing community efforts to eliminate and prevent slums
and blight. The Workable Program calls for progress in the follow- ~
ing four areas:

a. Code Adoption and Enforcement. The adoption of housing, build-
ing, and related codes, and development of an effective code
enforcement program which is at least adequate to deal with
areas having high priority need for enforcement, including both
blighted areas and basically sound but deteriorating neighbor-
hoods, and which is geared toward eventual community-wide
compliance with such codes,

* b. Planning and Programming. The establishment of a continuing
public planning and programming process which develops action ¥*
programs within a comprehensive planning framework for over-
coming the major physical, social, and economic problems

related to the slum and blighted areas of the community, and

for establishing and preserving a well-planned community with
suitable living environment for family life.

c. Housing and Relocation, The development of a centralized or
coordinated program for assisting in the relocation of all
persons and business concerns displaced by public action in
the community and the development of a proz&gt; m to expand the
supply of housing for low- and moderate-inccuwe families on the
basis of equal opportunity.

ad. Citizen Involvement. The establishment of programs designed
to achieve meaningful involvement of citizens, including poor
and minority groups, in planning and carrying out HUD-assisted
programs related to the Workable Program.

A detailed explanation of the policies and requirements for each
of the above four areas is set forth in subsequent chapters of
this Handbook.

4, LOCAL ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS, In carrying out Workable
Program responsibilities, many different local agencies and offices
will necessarily be involved, together with various public and
private institutions, organizations, and individuals. For example,
building departments, planning agencies, health offices, housing
authorities, urban renewal agencies, neighborhood organizations,
private builders and developers may be involved to provide the
wide range of resources needed to meet Workable Program objectives.
While no specific. administrative structure is required by the
Workable Program, a community will be expected to meet the general

- requirement for establishment of an administrative mechanism

CHAPTER 2

 

CHAPTER 2. GUIDELINES FOR EVALUATION OF WORKABLE PROGRAM APPLICATIONS

1.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF ADMINISTRATION. Workable Program applica-
tions will be evaluated in light of the varying conditions,
backgrounds, problems, and traditions of the particular community.
In view of the difficulty of establishing predetermined standards
of compliance having equal applicability to all communities
throughout the nation, the Department's review and determination
will be guided by the statutory requirements, the adequacy of the
community's proposed effort as measured against the magnitude of
the job to be done, and the constraints of available Federal State,
and local resources. A second major consideration governing the
evaluation of application for recertification will be evidence of
reasonable continuing progress toward meeting the statutory goals
and objectives and those set forth by the community.

 

REQUIREMENTS FOR APPLIGATION CONTENT. The Workable Program is the
locality's program, and it is the responsibility of the locality

to establish goals, action programs, and timetables for accomplish-
ment in each of the four elements discussed in subsequent chapters.
The goals, action programs, and timetables must be approved by the
Department, except where otherwise indicated in Chapter 5, para-
graph 3. Because the emphasis is on the locality's responsibility
to develop its own program tailored to its own needs and abilities
rather than on complying with specific Departmental requirements,
the community's application must contain sufficient evidence and
detail to permit an objective basis for review and evaluation.
Therefore, the application must clearly and specifically describe
what the community intends to do during the next certification
period in each of the four Workable Program elements. When apply-
ing for recertification, the application must also clearly describe
what steps the community took in the last period, in order to
provide a basis for measurement of the community's continuing
progress toward meeting the agreed-upon goals and objectives. In
developing its "work program" in each of the four elements for the
next certification period, the community must also show how the
proposed activities are related to an analysis of the problems or
needs, and to longer-range targets for accomplishment. For example ,
in developing a program to meet the requirement of Chapter 6 to
expand the supply of housing for low- and moderate-income families,
the application should show the relationship of its proposed
program and timetables to an analysis of needs in the community
and to its longer-range goals or targets for expansion of such
supply. The questions included in Application Form 1081 are
designed to elicit the information and evidence required to provide
a reasonable basis for approving or disapproving the community's
Workable Program Application.

CHAPTER 2

Se CRITERTA FOR EVALUATION OF WORKABLE PROGRAM APPLICATION. In re-
viewing a community's application for certification or recertifi-
cation of a Workable Program, the Department's assessment will be
based on the following factors:

a. Problem Analysis. Adequacy of the community's analysis of the
problems and needs where required by the Workable Program
elements.

b. Long-Range Goals. Adequacy and reasonableness of the long-
range goals and targets for accomplishment proposed by the
community for overcoming such problems.

ec. Action Programs. Adequacy of the specific actions and time-
tables proposed to be taken by the community during the next
period of certification to deal with the problems identified,
in light of available resources and the magnitude of the
problems.

d. Progress. Demonstration of reasonable continuing progress
toward meeting goals and objectives specified by the community.

h, BASIS FOR DETERMINING ACCEPTABILITY, The acceptability of a com-

 

munity's initial application for certification will be based on

the adequacy of the problem or need analysis in each of the
elements, the extent to which longer-range goals or targets have
been identified in relation to need, and the adequacy of the pro-
posed action programs, in light of both need and available
resources. The acceptability of an application for recertification
will be based on the performance of the community in meeting the
goals, targets, and timetables agreed to at the last certification,
as well as on the extent to which the proposed level of effort
represents continuing progress from the last period toward meeting
its longer-range targets. When unexpected developments or changed
conditions prevent a community from meeting its agreed-to objec-
tives and timetables, the application for recertification must
include a detailed explanation of the reasons.

CHAPTER 3. ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES
FOR WORKABLE PROGRAM CERTIFICATION

FILING OF APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATION, Form HUD-1081 is to be
used by the community to apply for certification or recertifica-
tion of its Workable Program. Careful attention to the prepara-
tion of format and content will obviate the need for correspondence
with the community and thus help to expedite the review and
evaluation of the application and its approval.

An original and three copies of Form HUD-1081 are to be submitted
to the appropriate HUD Regional Office. An application for
recertification should be submitted at least 60 days prior to
expiration of the community's current Workable Program certifica-
tion.

A community desiring to discuss Workable Program policies and
requirements or to obtain assistance and guidance in the prepara-
tion of the required Form 1081 should communicate with the HUD
Regional Office.

GOVERNING BODY APPROVAL OF THE WORKABLE PROGRAM. Before being
submitted to the Regional Office, the application for certifica-
tion and recertification on Form HUD-1081 must be approved by the
executive head and the governing body of the community.

NOTIFICATION OF APPROVAL OR DISAPPROVAL. The HUD Regional Office
will advise the applicant community of approval or disapproval of
the Workable Program application for certification.

a. Reasons for Disapproval or Conditional Approval. Applications
may be disapproved or conditionally approved for either of two
reasons listed below; an explanation of the basis for such
action will be provided to the community.

(1) Failure by the community to carry out the plan of action
and timetable it proposed for the last certification
period. In the event of disapproval or conditional
approval for this reason, the community will be advised
of the actions it must take to carry out the plans or
steps it initially proposed but did not take and did not
provide justification for not taking.

(2) Inadequacy of plans, programs, and timetables: proposed by
the community for the next certification period. In the
event of disapproval or conditional approval for this
reason, the community will be informed of the nature of

WORKABLE PROGRAM FOR COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT

 

 

RHA 7100.1

 

 

CHAPTER 3

the inadequacy of its proposed plans and programs, and
will be requested to submit additional information needed
to remedy such inadequacies.

Time Limit. Applications that are conditionally approved will
provide a reasonable, definite time limit for accomplishment
of required actions. In the event of a conditional approval,
applications for financial assistance under the applicable HUD
programs will be processed, but final approvals will be with-
held until the Workable Program is fully approved. (Once a
community's application is approved, no further requirements
will be imposed during the period of certification. )

4, CERTIFICATION PERIOD. All Workable Program certifications are for

 

a two-year period. If certification of a Workable Program has
expired, the execution of contracts for assistance is precluded
with respect to the applicable programs listed in Chapter l,
paragraph 5. Certification is deemed not to expire, however, but
rather to continue in effect for the following purposes:

a.

To provide Federal assistance under Title I of the Housing Act
of 1949 for any urban project in the locality with respect to
which a loan and grant contract is executed prior to the ex-
piration date. sem
To provide Federal assistance under the United States Housing
Act of 1937 for any low-rent public housing being undertaken
by the locality with respect to which a contract for annual
contributions or capital grant is executed prior to the ex-
piration date.

To provide mortgage and home improvement loan insurance under
Section 220 of the National Housing Act with respect to prop-
erty in the locality situated in:

(1) The area of any urban renewal project for which a loan and
grant contract is executed prior to the expiration date,
or

(2) Any urban renewal area not involving Federal aid under
Title I of the Housing Act of 1949 respecting which prior
to the expiration date the Secretary of Housing and Urban
Development has certified that he has approved the urban
renewal plan for the area, that such plan conforms to the
general plan for the locality as a whole, and that there
exist the necessary authority and financial capacity to
ensure the completion of such urban renewal plan.

CHAPTER 3

 

a. To provide mortgage insurance under Section 221(da)(3) of the
National Housing Act with respect to property in the locality
for which a pre-application analysis has been made by the
Federal Housing Administration and it has agreed in writing
to accept a formal application prior to the expiration date,
or located in the area of any urban renewal project for which
a loan and grant contract is executed prior to the expiration
date.

CERTIFICATION LAPSE, Where a Workable Program certification has
expired and a lapse has occurred, the community will be required
to show the progress made in meeting Workable Program requirements
not only during the period in which the Workable Program was in
effect, but also during the lapsed period. Thus, it is important
that a community anticipate the expiration date and initiate the
actions necessary to prepare an application for recertification
sufficiently in advance of this dat so that lapse may be avoided.

TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO COMMUNITIES. In accordance with Section
101(d) of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended, the Department will
endeavor to the maximum extent possible, to assist communities in
meeting their Workable Program objectives. Field reviews of
progress will be made as necessary midway through the period of
certification and Regional Office staff will be available to the
extent resources permit to provide consultation, advice, and
technical assistance.

 

RELATIONSHIP OF WORKABLE PROGRAM AND URBAN RENEWAL REQUIREMENTS,
Communities intending to apply for urban renewal assistance should
be aware of the following statutory requirements:

 

a. No loan or grant contract may be entered into for an urban
renewal project unless the Workable Program "is of sufficient
scope and content to furnish a basis for evaluation of the need
for the urban renewal project, and such project is in accord
with the program."

b. The plan for an urban renewal project must “conform to the
general plan of the locality as a whole and to the Workable
Program..."

ec. In entering into any contract for advances for surveys, plans,
and other preliminary urban renewal work, the Secretary must
“sive consideration to the extent to which appropriate local
public bodies have undertaken positive programs (through the
adoption, modernization, administration, and enforcement of
housing, zoning, building and other local laws, codes, and
regulations . . .) for (1) preventing the spread or recurrence

WORKABLE PROGRAM FOR COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT

CHAPTER 3

 

in the community of slums and blighted areas, and (2) encour-
aging housing cost reductions through the use of appropriate
new materials, techniques, and methods in land and residential
planning, design, and construction, the increase of efficiency
in residential construction, and the elimination of restric-
tive practices which unnecessarily increase housing costs."

HUD will not authorize a Federal aid contract for a Neighbor-
hood Development Program (NDP) unless there is in existence a
certified Workable Program which is of sufficient scope and
content to furnish a basis for evaluation of the need for the
proposed NDP activities and such activities are in accord with
the Workable Program.

Communities are advised that because of the above statutory pro-
visions, requirements for urban renewal assistance may differ from
those necessary for Workable Program certification purposes in the
following ways:

a.

Evaluation of Urban Renewal Need. With respect to subpara-
graphs a. and d., above, a community intending to apply for
urban renewal or NDP assistance should ensure that the studies
undertaken in connection with the planning and programming re-
quirement described in Chapter, 5 are of sufficient scope and
quality to provide a basis for evaluation of the need for the
urban renewal project or NDP activities. In general, the
studies carried out under the Workable Program should be
adequate to determine that the area is sufficiently blighted
or deteriorated to qualify for an urban renewal or NDP program,
Information should be included to illustrate both building and
environmental deficiencies, such as overcrowded conditions,
excessive densities, and so forth. For further information on
urban renewal eligibility requirements see RHA 7205.1 of the
Urban Renewal Handbook, Chapter 1, General Eligibility Require-
ments. A community may, if it so wishes, supplement its'
Workable Program submission with other related studies having a
bearing, such as a Community Renewal Program, General Neighbor-
hood Renewal Program, or other similar studies.

Renewal Plans. With respect to b., above, the Urban Renewal

Handbook sets forth the following minimum elements of a general
plan: land use plan, thoroughfare plan, community facilities
plan, public improvements program, zoning ordinance and map and
subdivision regulations. The preparation of such plans (except
for a zoning ordinance or other comparable memo for guiding
land usage) is not a prerequisite to the approval of the
Workable Program, though many communities may find the prepara-
of them helpful in the development of general plans to guide

RHA 7100.1

 

 

 

 

CHAPTER 3

 

community growth and development, which is a Workable Program

requirement described in Chapter 5. In addition, for purposes
of approving specific urban renewal projects, a greater degree
of planning completion may be required than would be necessary
for Workable Program purposes, especially in smaller communi-

ties and others seeking initial certification or recertifica-

tion.

c. Codes. With respect to c., above, a community intending to
apply for urban renewal assistance is advised that approval of
the housing, building, and other code requirements of the
Workable Program will constitute compliance for urban renewal
purposes with Section 101(a) of the Housing Act of 1949, and
no additional information will be required for that purpose.

AVAILABILITY OF WORKABLE PROGRAM AS PUBLIC DOCUMENT. Since the
Workable Program is a public document, it must be made available
for public perusal and examination. At their request, copies
should be made available by the locality to citizen groups and
organizations which should be encouraged to participate in the
development and implementation of the Workable Program.

 

GUIDES. Supplementary guides will be issued to provide communities

with advice and illustrations in connection with carrying out the
Workable Program, including description of the scope and content

of comprehensive planning programs, ways of organizing and carrying
out effective relocation and code enforcement programs, and means
for encouraging and developing citizen involvement. Pending issu-
ance of the Guides, questions and requests for technical assistance
should be directed to the Regional Office.

The City of Atlanta is pres ent ly engaged in eight Urban Renewal Projects
and five Neighborhood Developme nt Program Projects (3 in execution, 2 in
Thes e projects are fund ed jointly by the City and the
planning only).
Federal Governmen t.
The funding arrangement calls for a contribution
equal to one~third of the Net Project costs from tha City with the· re~
rnaini.ng two--thirds being suppJied by ·che Federal Gov ernmen t.
The City's share may b e in the form of ca sh contributions or non-ca sh
grants-in-aid, th e se grnrits-in- aid are demo lition and removal work,
project or site i ~prov eme nt s , public and supporting facilities, and other s
such as credits fro~ construc~ion of public housings.
At pres ent, the
eight Urb an Ren rn-1 al project~ presently in execution are Slunrna rized as
follows:
Net Project Costs
Local Non- Cash Gra nts-In-Aid
Local Cash and Real Estate
Cr edits
$60 millionl
20 rn:i.llion
1 million
This points very emphatically to th e feet that our prese nt Urban Renewa l
program has been financed al mos t comp l e tely through the use of non-cash
grants·· in-aid.
The res ults of this policy can be seen in th_e long delays
encountered in the clo sing out of these projects, some of which date back
into the 1950 's·.
The cash used for these projects has cor:ie frcr:rt money set aside in the 1957
and 1963 Genera l Obl igat ion Bond Issue s and totaling $3.2 milliono
There-
fore, we have, at present, $2.1 million of unencu:.1bered fun ds available
f:rom this source.
Of this amount, $1. 7 is presently expected to be needed
lof this amount $4.5 mi llion or 7\% has been incurred as interest charges.

NETGHBORROOD DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

PROJECTS

APRIL 29, 1969°

\ '

 
The City of Atlanta is presently engaged in eight Urban Renewal Projects
and five Neighborhood Development Program Projects (3 in execution, 2 in
planning only). These projects are funded jointly by the City and the
Federal Government. The funding scdawenest calls for a contribution

.

equal to one»third of the Net Project costs from the City with the re+

maining two»thirds being supplied by the Federal Government.

The City's share may be in the form of cash contributions or non-cash
grants-in-aid, these grants-in-aid are demolition and removal work,
project or site improvements, public and supporting facilities, and others
such as eredits from construction of public housings. At present, the
eight Urban Renewal projects presently in execution are summarized as

follows: 4

Net Project Costs $60 million!
Local Non-Cash Grants-In-Aid 20 million :
Local Cash and Real Estate

Credits 1 million

This points very emphatically to the fact that our present Urban Renewal
program has been financed almost completely through the use of non-cash
grants-in-aid, The results of this policy can be seen in the long delays
encountered os the closing out of these projects, some of which date back

into the 1950's,

The cash used for these projects has come from money set aside in the 1957
and 1963 General Obligation Bond Issues and totaling $3.2 million, There«

fore, we have, at present, $2.1 million of unencumbered funds available

from this source, Of this amount, $1.7 is presently expected to be needed

2 .

 

lof this amount $4.5 million or 74% has been incurred as interest charges,
to meet the cash requirements of the Beaford-Pine Neighborhood Development

Program Project in 1979.

The non-cash contributions of $20 million are the eligible portion of
total expenditures totaling about $29 million and have some of the
following forms.

School : $11.4 million

Section 1072 &amp; Special Credits 1.3 million
Streets 4.7 million
Parks «7 million
Water Improvement «6 million
Sewer Improvements 66 million
Special Facilities «3 million
Traffic Improvements . el million
Other e3 million

$20.0 million

 

Some of the problems encountered because of the use of non-cash contribu-

tions (94.8% of total city funding) as the City's source of funding Urban

Renewal activities are:

ie Butler Street

A. Middle School with a total estimated cost of $2 million has

been delaying the close of this project, but should be under

contract by August of 1969,

—_

2. Rawson ~ Washington

og

he.

fetghbostond Facilities, Building with a total estimated cost
of $1 million of which $150,0CO will be an eligible project
cost. This project is at present unfunded with the only
possible source of funds being through Model Cities, It is
presently plannedfor the City to purchase the land from the

Housing Authority and hold this until a determination is made

 

Iroedits resultine from the construction of Public Housing.
regarding the use of Model Cities funds,

B. Park with an estimated cost of $240,000 of which $33,000

 

will be eligible costs, No source of cancine is presently
ascertainable,
3. Rockdale
A. Elementary School with an estimated cost of $1.5 million and
. expected to be under contract by August of 1969, ;
B. An expansion of the existing elementary school with an esti-
mated cost of $700,000 and at present unfunded.
C. Park with an estimated cost of $75,000 which is also presently
unfunded.
4. Thomasville

5

A. Elementary school with $1.5 million estimated cost and ex«

pected to be under contract by August, 1969.

Be park with estimated cost of $126,000 which is at present
unfunded. |

Cc, Tw primary schools with $1 million estimated total cost and
a middle school with an estimated cost of $2 million are un-
funded and no source is seen until at least June of 1971.

The advent of the Neighborhood Development Program has brought to an end
the period during which the City could pledge an improvement and then
wait ert funding became available before completing it. Under the terms
of an NDP agreement, the City must have completed or have under contract

all non-cash grants-in-aid pledged for that particular year or contribute

the required amount in cash.
Our present MDP projects were funded for 1969 from already existing improve~
ments or supporting facilities amounting to a total City committment of
$10.8 million. This supports a total Neighborhood Development Program of

$32.4 million.

The 1970 progrem is expected to have the following City requirements;

Cash | Non-Cash
Bedford-Pine $1.7 million $ .2 million
fodel Cities 1.5 million 1.3 million
Edgewood . el willion «2 million :
Vine City _2k million o2 million
$3.4 million $1.9 million

 

This would support a total program of $19.9 million and would increase
greatly if the Edgewood and Vine City projects were expanded to a signi-

ficant level of activity.

This means that to support the fairly light level of activity projected for
1970, the City will need approximately $1.7 willion. If any new areas are
added or the level of activity increased this would increase from $2.5 to

$4.0 million for 1970,

The possible sources of funds include;
1. General Funds ~ This murce is already under considerable pressure and

—

no relief is presently anvierpaded,
2, The G. 0. Bonds already approved, for issue in the ananne of $4 million
annually. The financing of Neighborhood Development Programs finm these
bonds wevld requixe the use of almost this entire amount every year and
could very likely become embroiled in legal tangles,

3, Another possibility is a special Neighborheod Development Progran

General Obligation Bond Issue of $10 + $20 million in 1970 with another

-

issue 4 or 5 years later or the obtaining of voter approval to issue

G. 0. Bonds for this purpose in the amount of $3-5 million per year,
 

Fh

This appreach is naturally subject to ‘ims of the public, and, there+
fore, of uncertain dependability.
4, Pex thaps the best mathod would be through the obtaining of a new revenue

ales tax or a payroll tax of which a

0

source, by state approval, such as a
certain portion would be earmarked for Neighborhoal Development Programs,
Of course in the pursuit of a new source of revenue we are at loggerheads

with the state and may not be able to obtain a satisfactory revenue source,

Regardless of the method you favor in obtaining the neeced funds, it is

QD

jiperative, if the City of Atlanta is to maintain its progressive image anc
to continue its diamatic development, that a source be found; because the

continuation of a sig gnificent program of restoration and rehablitation of

the central core of Atlanta is a vital element in the continued evolution

of our City.

Thi s would support a total program of $1909 mi l lion and would i ncrease

This means that to support th e fair ly light level of activity projected f.o r

I f any new areas are
added or the level of activity increased this woul d increase f rom $2 •.S to

2.
The G.

o.
Bonds already approved, f or issue in the amount of $4 mi llion
'
The fi nanc ing of Neighborhood Development Pro6rams from these
bonds would require t he us e of almost this entire amoutit every year and
could ver y likely be come embroited in l egal tangles.
3.
Another possibility is a spec ial Neighborhood Development Program
General Obligation Bond Issue of $10 - $20 million in 1970 with another
issue 4 or 5 years lat er or the obtaining of voter approval to issue
G. O. Bonds for this purpose in the amount of $3-5 million per year.

              <text>FUNDING OF UPp/n RENEWAL AND

NETGHSORHOCD DEVSLOFMENT PROGRAM

PROJECTS

APRIL 29, 1969
The City of Atlanta is presently engaged in eight Urban Renewal Projects
and five Neighborhood Development Program Projects (3 in execution, 2 in
planning only). These projects are funded jointly by the City and the
Federal Government. The funding were calls for a contribution
equal to one-third of the Net Project costs from the City with the re-

maining two-thirds being supplied by the Federal Government.

The City's share may be in the form of cash contributions or non-cash
grants-in-aid, these grants-in-aid are demolition and removal work,
project or site improvements, public and supporting facilities, and others
such as credits from construction of public housings. At present, the
eight Urban Renewal projects presently in execution are summarized as
follows:

Net Project Costs $60 million!

Local Non-Cash Grants-In-Aid 20 million

Local Cash and Real Estate

Credits 1 million

This points very emphatically to the fact that our present Urban Renewal
program has been financed almost completely through the use of non-cash
grants-in-aid, The results of this policy can be seen in the long delays

encountered in the closing out of these projects, some of which date back

into the 1950's.

The cash used for these projects has come from money set aside in the 1957
and 1963 General Obligation Bond Issues and totaling $3.2 million. There-
fore, we have, at present, $2.1 million of unencumbered funds available

from this source, Of this amount, $1.7 is presently expected to be needed

 

lof this amount $4.5 million or 74% has been incurred as interest charges.

ee
to meet the cash requirements of the Bedford=Pine Neighborhood Development

Program Project in 1970.

The non-cash contributions of $20 million are the eligible portion of
total expenditures totaling about $29 million and have some of the

following forms.

School $11.4 million
Section 1072 &amp; Special Credits 1.3 million
Streets 4.7 million
Parks «7 million
Water Improvement e6 million
Sewer Improvements 06 million
Special Facilities e3 million

Some of the problems encountered because of the use of non-cash contribu-
tions (94.8% of total city funding) as the City's source of funding Urban
Renewal activities are:
1. Butler Street
A. Middle School with a total estimated cost of $2 million has
been delaying the close of this project, but should be under
contract by August of 1969.
2. Rawson ~ Washington 7
A. tetenboehood Facilities, Building with a total estimated cost
of $1 million of which $150,000 will be an eligible project
cost. This project is at present unfunded with the only
possible source of funds being through Model Cities. It is
presently plannedfor the City to purchase the land from the

Housing Authority and hold this until a determination is made

 

rss Beers eee Bia Sha aanenteinedan AF PANTS Paws dries
resarding the use of Model Cities funds,

B. Park with an estimated cost of $240,000 of which $33,000

will be eligible costs,

ascertainable.

3. Rockdale

No source of funding is presently

A. Elementary School with an estimated cost of $1.5 million and

expected to be under contract by August of 1969.

B. An expansion of the existing elementary school with an esti~

mated cost of $700,000 and at present unfunded.

C. Park with an estimated cost of $75,000 which is also presently

unfunded,

4. Thomasville

A. Elementary school with $1.5 million estimated cost and ex-

pected to be under contract by August, 1969,

B. Park with estimated cost of $126,000 which is at present

unfunded,

C. Tw primary schools with $1 million estimated total cost and

a middle school with an estimated cost of $2 million are un-=

funded and no source is seen until at least June of 1971.

The advent of the Neighborhood Development Program has brought to an end

the period during which the City could pledge an improvement and then

wait until funding became available before completing it. Under the texms

of an NDP agreement, the City must have completed or have under contract

all non-cash grants-in-aid pledged for that particular year or contribute

the required amount in cash,

23.
Our present NDP projects were funded for 1969 from already existing improve~
ments or supporting facilities amounting to a total City committment of

$10.8 million. This supports a total Neighborhood Development Program of

$32.4 million.

The 1970 program is expected to have the following City requirements:

: Cash Non-Cash
Bedford-Pine $1.7 million $ .2 million
Model Gities 1.5 million 1.3 million
Edgewood el millica «2 million
Vine City el million «2 million

$3.4 million $1.9 million

Be ere ee ote

 

 

This would support a total program of $19.9 million and would increase
greatly if the Edgewood and Vine City projects were expanded to a signi-

ficaht level of activity.

This means that to support the fairly light level of activity projected for
1970, the City will need approximately $1.7 million. If any new areas are
added or the level of activity increased this would increase from $2.5 to

$4.0 million for 1970,

The possible sources of funds include;

1. General Funds - This »urce is already under considerable pressure and
no relief is presently anticipated.

2. The G O. Bonds already approved. for issue in the amount of $4 million
annually. The financing of Neighborhood heveliomment Programs fm these
bonds would require the use of almost this entire amouht every year and
could very likely become embroiled in legal tangles,

3. Another possibility is a special Neighborhood Development Program
General Obligation Bond Issue of $10 - $20 million in 1970 with another

issue 4 or 5 years later or the obtaining of voter approval to issue

G. 0. Bonds for this purpose in the amount of $3-5 million per year.
This approach is naturally subject to the whims of the public, and, there-
fore, of uncertain dependability.

4, Perhaps the best method would be thxough the obtaining of a new rvevenve
source, by state approval, such as a sales tax or a payroll] tax of which a
certain portion would be earmarked for Neighborhool Development Programs,
Of course in the pursuit of a new source of revenue we are at loggerheads

with the state and may not be able to obtain a satisfactory revenue source.

Regardless of the method you favor in obtaining the needed funds, it is
imperative, if the City of Atlanta is to maintain its progressive image and
to continue its dramatic development, that a source be found; because the
continuation of a significant program of restoration and rehablitation of
the central core of Atlanta is a vital element in the continued evolution

of our City.

�IMPORTANCE OF ORGANIZATION
If the planning of the Model Neighborhood Program is to be successful,
it is absolutely essential that all key participants ·i.ir the program are well
organized.
This means that the following organi zational matters should be
accomplished before planning begins.
1.
The Model Neighborhood Executive Boa rd should be formed to act
as the ultimate authori ty of the pr@gram.
It should allow
representation from all levels of gover-JLment - city, county,
state, and federal; residents of the Model Nei ghborhood area;
and residents of the city-at-large.
2.
The Model Neighborhood staff should be f ormed, including the
executive director, the three chief planners and the technical
staff.
3.
Stable local organizations which adequ at el y represent the residents
of the various neighborhoods in the area should be in operation.
While those organizations should be representative of the interests
of all residents and give everyone a voice in their affairs, they
should not be se cumbersome that they cannot work effectively with
the planners.
In other words, it will be physica.JJ..v impossible for the planners
to carry all of their work directly to the 'grass roots' organizations
of the area.
This may be necessary for some key issues, but for
the most part planners will have to work with a small committee
of 10-20 persons if they are to accomplish anything worthwhile.
�COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION IN PLANNING
OF MODEL NEIGHBORHOOD PROGRAM
INTRODUCTION
The Model Neighborhood Program offers an excellent opportunity to bring
about basic improvements in one of the most problematic areas of Atlanta.
The area selected for the pr0gram contains all the varied and complicated
forms of urban blight which plague American cities today, from overcrowded,
su~standard housing to incompatible land use mj_xtures to poer street conditions
and inadequate community facilities to all facets of socio-economic poverty
and deprivation.
Most of these conditions have deep roots and are so
complex and of such a nature that it will take nothing less than a special
concentrated long-term effort to eliminate them.
So far no major city in
the country has been successful in eliminating them.
The Model Neighborhood Program can bring about t he special concentrated
effort which is needed to alleviate the conditions of the ' Model Neighborhood'
area.
It is designed to pool the resources of the city, county, state,
and federal governments along with tho se of private interest groups to
make a total attack on the serious and widespread problems of the area
for a period of several years.
The funds it provides will support the
pr gram through the planning and implementation stages.
However, if the Model Neighborhood Program is to avoid the mistakes
of many previous efforts to help slwn residents it is very important that
the pr gram be carefully planned and that local residents be involved
throughout all stages of planning.
The purpose of this report is to show
how c mmunity par ticipation ean be effectively fitted into the planning
f the M del Nei~hborho0d Pr gram.
-2-
�Hence the neighborhood groups of the area should be capable of
fer.ming such a cemmittee which can wor k with the planners and
relay this work to the 'grass ro0ts' groups .
It has been
suggested that the steering committee of the various neighb0rhood
gr oups in the area serve this function .
PROCEDURES FOR PLANNING
The federal government has set the pr ocedure s for the planning of the
Model NeighborhQod Program.
The period allowed f or planning is one year,
beginning with the date of the congressional announcement of the program
(Nov. 15, 1967 - Nov• . 15, 1968).
During t his period t he foll0wing planning
items have to be submitted to the fe de ral government for approval:
1.
Problem Analysis, Goals &amp; Progra~ Strategy Statement
2.
Five -Year Pl an
3. Firs t-Year Action Progr am
4.
Pl anning and Evaluation Progr am
S.
Statement of Administ rative St ructLITe for Impl ement ation
Of t hese planning submission requirements , the firs t one - the Problem
Analysis, Goals and Program St rategy'Statemeht - i s probably the most important,
as it will set the stage for the rest of the planning effort.
It will
establish the general orientation of the Five-Year Plan and the FirstYear Action Program and will initiate the general procedures for community
participation in planning.
Thus, it can serve as a guide as to how the
local residents will be involved in plam1ing.
-3-
�PROBLEM ANALYSIS, GOALS AND PROGRAM STRATEGY STAT~j§JIT-GUIDE TO COMMUNITY
PARTICIPATION IN PLANNING
The preparation of the Problem Analysis, Goals and Program Strategy
is divided into three stages or milestones:
Strategy.
Problem Analysis; Goals; and
It is intended that the Model Neighborhood planning staff and
the community will be working cl0sely toget her in this preparation so that
the best of their ideas will go into the f inal statement submitted to
HUD.
(1)
DISCUSSION REPORTS
The basis 0f the working relationship between the Model Neighborhood
planning st aff and community will cent er ar oLU1d discussion repor ts to
cover each milestone:
Problems; Goals; and Strategy.
These reports will
be done by the planning staff and designed to st imulate discussion among
t he r esi dents .
They will not be the f inal word on anything, but merely
present t he information available to the pl anning st aff so as to initi ate
community involvement and discussion on t he significant pl anni ng is sues.
The community will be able to criticize , add to and/or subtract from the
reports .
F0r exampl e , t he f irst r epor t will cover the subject:
Problem Analysis
and attempt to identify and survey the major condi t ions and problems of
the Model Neighborhood area which ju st ify treatment.

It will:
define and document the major conditi0ns And problems as far as
available data will allow and according to f ollowing categories:

categories in (a).
d.
provide space in which residents caD criticize the contents of
the report, i.e., redefine problems, r eorganize data, contribute
additional ideas, etc.
(2)
DISTRIBUTION OF REPORTS
The reports are to be distributed to each of the six communicities in
the Model Neighborhood area.
They will include infonnation on the area as
a whole and on the particular community to which it is distributed.
It probably will not be feasible to get written responses from all
residents ef the area.
But perhaps certain people frem each community
could be responsible for surveying the responses of the residents,
summarizing them, and writing them down to be ret urned to the planning
staff.
The reports will be all wed to circulate for a maximum period of
two weeks.
This should give enough time for r esidents to gather up
their written responses te the report.
Also during this time it would
be desirable to have a general meeting in each community, whe r e residents
can _freely express their own ideas ab0ut the subj ect matter of the report.
After this circulation period which hopefully will br ing about
fruitful dialogue and exchanges between the planners and the cormnunity,
the planning staff should then be in a position to draw up final reports
on Pr blems, Goals and St rategy which fully incorporate the ideas of
�the residents.
These reports would then make up the final Problem
Analysis, Goals, and Pregram Strategy Sta tement .

The Model Neighborhood Program offers an excellent opportunity to bring
ahead basic imprevements in one of the most problematic areas of Atlanta.
The area selected for the program contains all the varied and complicated
forms of urban blight which plague American cities today, from overcrowded,
substandard housing te incompatible land use mixtures to poor street conditions
and inadequete community facilities to all facets of socio-economic poverty
and deprivation. Most of these conditions have deep roots and are so
complex and of such a nature that it will take nothing less than a special
concentrated long-term effort to eliminate them. ‘So far no major city in
the country has been successful in eliminating then,

The Model Neighborhood Pregram can bring about the special concentrated
effort which is needed to alleviate the conditions of the 'Model Neighborhood!
area, It is designed to pool the resources of the city, county, state,
and federal governments along with those of private interest groups to
make a tetal attack on the serious and widespread preblems of the area
for a period of several years. The funds it provides will suppert the
pregram through the planning and implementation stages,

However, if the Model Neighborhood Program is te avoid the mistakes
of many previeus efferts to help slum residents it is very impertant that
the program be carefully planned and that local residents be involved
threughout all stages of planning. The purpose of this report is te shew
hew community participation can be effectively fitted into the planning

ef the Medel Neivhborheed Program,
Hence the neighborhood groups of the area should be capable of
forming such a committee which can work with the planners and
relay this work to the 'grass roots' groups. It has been
suggested that the steering connittee of the various neighborhood

groups in the area serve this function,

PROCEDURES FOR PLANNING

The federal government has set the procedures for the planning of the
Model Neighborhood Program. The period allowed for planning is one year,
beginning with the date of the congressional announcement of the program
(Nov. 15, 1967 - Novs 15, 1968). During this period the following planning
items have to be submitted to the federal government for approval:

1. Problem Analysis, Goals &amp; Progran Strategy Statement

2. Five-Year Plan

3. First-Year Action Program

4, Planning and Evaluation Pregran

5. Statement of Administrative Structure for Implementation

Of these planning submission requirements, the first one - the Problem
Analysis, Goals and Pregram Strategy Statement - is probably the most important,
as it will set the stage for the rest of the planning effert. It will
establish the general orientation of the Five-Year Plan and the First-

Year Action Pregram and will initiate the gencral precedures for community
participation in planning. Thus, it can serve as a guide as to how the

lecal residents will be involved in planning.
PROBLEM ANALYSIS, GOALS AND PROGRAM STRATEGY STATSMENT-GUIDE TO COMMUNITY
PARTICIPATION IN PLANNING

The preparation of the Problem Analysis, Goals and Program Strategy
is divided into three stages or milestones: Problem Analysis; Goals; and
Strategy. It is intended that the Model Neighborhood planning staff and
the community will be working closely together in this preparation so that
the best of their ideas will go into the final statement submitted to

HUD.
(1) DISCUSSION REPORTS

The basis of the working relationship between the Model Neischborhood
planning staff and community will center around discussion reports to
cover each milestone: Problems; Goals; and Strategy. These reports will
be done by the planning staff and designed to stimulate discussion among
the residents, They will not be the final word on anything, but merely
present the information available to the planning staff so as to initiate
community involvement and discussion on the significant planning issues.
The community will be able to criticize, add to and/or subtract from the
reports,

For example, the first report will cover the subject: Problem Analysis
and attempt te identify and survey the major conditions and preblems of
the Model Neighborhood area which justify treatment. It will:

a. define and decument the major conditions «nd problems as far as

available data will allow and according to follewing categories:
empleyment; housing; scheels; recreation; land use; health

services; family, legal services; police protection; and ‘ether,
b. present the information in a simple and concise manner so thet
lay citizens will have a minimum amount of trouble in reading it.

C. provide a brief questionnaire on which residents can rate the
priority of problems in their comunity according to the above
categories in (a).

d. provide space in which residents can criticize the contents of
the report, i.e., redefine problems, reorganize data, contribute

additional ideas, etc.
(2) DISTRIBUTION OF REPORTS

The reports are to be distributed to each of the six communicities in
the Model Neighborhood area. They will include information on the area as

(~ /)JS_
SUBJECT: Consolidation of Urban Renewal Policy Committee into
Planning and Development Committee
At the request of Alderman G. Everett Mi 11 ican,the attached proposed
Ordinance is being sent to you for rev·iew. The Ordinance calls for
doing away with the Urban Renew·a l Policy Committee and transferring
its duties and responsibi I ities to the Planning and Development Committee.
The matter was brought up at the last Board meeting by Alderman Rodney
Cook.
With the exception of Alderman Hugh Pierce,the four other aldermanic
members of the Urban Renewal Policy Committee are also members of
the Planning and Development Committee. In order to facilitate the
change, the proposal is made to increase the Planning and Development
Committee by one aldermanic member in order to add Alderman Pierce
for the remainder of 1969 . For 1970 and beyond, a reduction back to
se ve r. al de rma nic me mbers is suggested for consideration at a later date .
Since much of the area of concern of the Urban Renewal Policy Committee
is a lso shared by the Planning and Development Committee and their
membe rsh ips a re prac tica lly the same , little change will actually result
in th is a ct ion e x cept to reduce the number of sta nding comm i ttees .

TO :
Henry L. Bowden, City Attorney
James B. Henderson, Special Associate City Attorney
IN RE:
Mrs. E. S. Hope, Mrs. Millie Walker,
Mrs. Vernie J. Jacobs, Complainants
-- Department of Planning
Reference is made to a mimeograph-type letter dated April 16, 1969
from complainants, a copy of which was directed to the Mayor and to
Alderman Griggs.
In accordance with the Mayor's referral of this
matter to Mr. Gladin and the request of Alderman Griggs, an investigation of the matter was conducted with the following results.
I conferred with Mr. Collier B. Gladin, Director, and Mr. Thompson
H. Shuttleworth, Zoning Administrator, both of the Planning Department, relative to this matter and they furnished the following information.
A zoning petition was filed April 25, 1968 by Lewis Cenker for rezoning of property on Brownlee Road.
The first public hearing in the
matter was set for June 6, 1968 before the Zoning Committee, at which
time the matter was deferred for revised site plans by the petitioner.
The deferment was until November 7, 1968.
Subsequently the petition
was denied by the Board of Aldermen on November 18, 1968, as the plans
were not available.
The matter was again initiated by the Zoning Com-
mittee on December 31, 1968, after the petitioner's attorney indicated
he would have the plans ready and a public hearing was scheduled for
February 6 , 1969 .
�The c ase , more specifically described as Zoning Case No. Z-68-225-C,
was postponed on February 6, 1969 by the Alderrnanic Zoning Committee
at the request of the connnunity and the developer to _provide an opportunity for discussion of the issue.
The petition was to be deferred
f or a period of 60 days and it was announced that the public hearing
would be held on April 10, 1969.
A meeting between community residents and the developer was scheduled
to be held in the Planning Department office on Monday, March 31, 1969,
however, this meeting was cancelled as the City Hall was closed in
tribute to the late President Eisenhower.
The Planning Department staff did not bring the case before the Zoning
Cornmittee on April 10th, since the March 31st meeting had been cancelled.
However, when area residents appeared at the hearing on
April 10th, Mr. Shuttleworth had the case file brought from the
Planning Department to the Alderrnanic Chamber.
Mr. Shuttleworth
advised that through an error on his part, the ·case was not actually
scheduled for hearing on April 10th.
In the course of the meeting on April 10th, area residents were offered
several options in considering the case.
The Committee offered to hear
from the residents at that time and the developer at a later time, or,
second , to hear from residents and the developer _at a later mutually
agreeable time.
dents.
Neither option appeared agreeable to connnunity resi-
They were, however, permitted to speak in opposition to the
petition and were assured another opportunity to speak when 'the
developer came to present his case.
Page Two
�Mr. Gladin and Mr. Shuttleworth expressed regret for any inconvenience
they may have caused community residents in this misunderstanding over
the hearing date for the zoning petition.
They are strongly of the
opinion , however, that members of the planning staff have made every
possible effort to work with the community in discussing the issues
in this case and will continue to do so.
As a matter of information, the Atlanta-Fulton County Joint Planning
Board has recommended approval of this zoning petition.
The Planning
Department staff also recommends approval in that the proposed use
conforms with the Atlanta Land Use Plan, which has been adopted by
the Mayor and Board of Aldermen.
Also of possible interest, it was reported that Mr. Cenker, the petitioner in this matter, has agreed to hold in abeyance any further action
in this matter pending a Georgia Tech Land Use Study.
As a result of prior telephonic arrangements with Mrs. Jacobs, she and
Mr s. Walker appeared at my office to discuss this matter on the morning
of May 8, 1969.
They explained that Mrs. Hope had planned to be present
but was unable to keep the appointment.
It was their opinion that Mrs.
Hope would have no information of value in addition to that information
in their possession.
At my request, Mr. Henry M. Murff, of the Law
Department, attended this conference.
After lengthy discussion of the case at hand, the law as applied to
zoning and the administrative handling of zoning matters were explained in detail to Mrs. Jacobs and Mrs. Walker.

�The handling of the case at hand by the Planning Department and
cormnittees involved also was explained in detail to these ladies.
The contents of referenced letter of April 16, 1969 were reviewed with
the ladies, at which time they stated they had no information whatsoever which would indicate any wrongdoing on the part of any employee,
official or elected representative of the City of Atlanta.
Mrs. Jacobs and Mrs. Walker were more specifically questioned in
regard to Paragraph 16 of referenced letter
"16.
Are persons desiring favorable rulings on rezoning
petitions required to pay a fee under the table
and off the record to elected officials or paid
City Hall staffers?"
Mrs. Jacobs and Mrs. Walker advise they have no information to substantiate any possible inference of wrongdoing in the above quoted
paragraph.
In view of the above information, it would appear that no further
action is warranted at this time.

�ATTITUDE SURVEY OF THE
P-ESIDENTS OF LIGHTNING
City of Atlanta
Dep artment of Planning
November 13, 1969
�This report deals with the results of an attitude survey conducted
in Lightning. The section of Atlanta known as Lightning is bounded by
Northside Drive, Hunter Street, and Simpson Street. Lightning is zoned
for industrial use.
This survey was conducted by the City of Atlanta Planning Department
upon the request of the citizens of Lightning. The citizens voiced their
support for this survey or a community meeting held Tuesday, October 14,
1969.
The Lightning attitude survey was conducted for several reasons.
First of all, the questionnaire is aimed at securing two basic types of
information. The first group of questions, one through nine, deal with
the attainment of factual information, such as the number of persons in
each household. The second group of questions, ten through seventeen,
explore the attitudes of the people toward living in Lightning and the
problems involved .
In addition to securing information, a second purpose of this survey
is to let the citizens of Lightn ing know that the City of Atlanta is concerned and interested in their problems. A third purpose of the Lightning
survey is to get both the citizens of Lightning and the City of Atlanta to
start thinking about the short and long range problems of this area. This
includes the exposure of short range problems that can perhaps be solved
in the near future, with the people of Lightning and the city working
together.
The survey was conducted Tuesday, October 28, 1969 through Thursday,
October 30, on a door-to-door verbal interview basis. Twelve interviewers,
bl a ci: end wh it e , ~e r e us e t o cond uc t t .c su . cy : One City Pla nning
Department employee, two City Planning Department int erns, one Model
Cities employee, and eight HUD interns. (A list of interviewers appears
in appendix A). They interviewed a total of 105 households, which is
77% of the total number of households in Lightning. Contact at each
household was attempted at least three times: Morning, afternoon, and
evening.
General Re sult s
The factual results of the survey show that:
1.
Forty-four per cent (44%) of the respondents live in housing
which is overcrowded, having one or more persons per room.
2.
Of the 105 households surveyed, eighty-one per cent (81%)
rented their residences and the remaining nineteen per cent
(19%) were home-owners. Seventy-five per cent (75%) of the
renters and eighty per certt (80%) of the homeowners stated
that they could not afford to pay more for housing.
�- 2 -
3.
Seventy-four of the interviewers, or seventy per cent (70%)
were unemployed, due to disability, retirement, household
responsibility or simple lack of ability to find work.
4.
The average length of residence in Lightning of the respondents
was nineteen years, with a range of 1.5 months to sixty-six years.
5.
The average age of the respondents was 52.4 years, with a range
of twelve to eighty-two7 years.
The attitudinal results of the survey show the following major
findings:
1.
The majority of interviewees (85%) like living in Lightning.
However, of the ninety-eight respondents saying whether they
would like c o live elsewhere (See question 12), fifty-three
per cent (53%) answered affirmatively, with the remaining fortyseven per cent (47%) preferring to remain in Lightning.
2.
Ninety-one out of the 105 interviewees feel like they are members
of the Lightning community and belong with the people there.

with fifty-two per cent (52%) of the respondents listing it.
(See question 13).

�ATTITUDE SURVEY OF THE
RE SIDENTS OF PLUNKETTOWN
City of At l anta
Dep artment of Pl anning
Augus t 11 , 1969
�-
This report presents the results of an attitude survey conducted
among the people of the Atlanta section of Plunkettown by the City of
Atlanta Department of Planning at the request of the Mayor and Board
of Aldermen . The purpose of this survey was to explore, on a broad
base, the atti tudes of the people toward living in Plunke ttown versus
living elsewhere, and to discover which aspects of life in Plunkettown
the people consider to be major problems . The ultimate purpose of this
report is to provide information concerning the people ' s desires toward
r emai ning in Plunket town to help the Board of Aldermen in making the
dec ision as to whether or not an urban renewal project in Plunkettown
will be a residential rehabilitation and rebuilding project.
Interviews were conducted during the daytime hours on Friday,
August 1 , and Monday , August 4, and during the evening hours on Tuesda y, August 5. The group of interviewers who conducted the survey
included t wo members of the Planning Department staff and five summer
i nterns from the Mayor ' s office . All interviewers were white . (A list
of int erviewers appears in Appendix A.)
Methodology
The survey was c onducted through use of a door -to-door ora l interview . An attempt was made t o conduct at le as t one interview in each
household. Contact was attempted at each household at leas t three
times : morning , afternoon , and evening. In all, interviews were conducted in eighty-two hous eholds , or 85% of all households.
The interview questionnaire contained two basic types of questions .
The first type asked f or factu al information such as place of work,
travel time to work, number of persons in the household, and ownership
of property . The second asked atti tud inal questions about the desirability of Plunket town as a place to live as compared to other places.
General Reoults
The factual resul ts of the survey show that:
1.
The workers who live in Plunkettown have an average reported
t ravel time to work of twenty minutes by car; and that over
half ( 26 of 41) work within two miles of Plunkettown.
2.
Thirty-eight per cent (38%) of the present housing is overcrowded, having one or more persons per room.
3.
Of the eighty-two households surveyed, thirty-two (39%)
owned their houses while the remaining fifty (61%) are
renters.
�- 2 -
4.
Ten of the interviewed f ami lies own property other than th at
upon whi.ch they are living . Six ow-n other property in
Plunkettown . four others own property in Cl ayt on County,
lorthwest Fulton County, East Point, a nd Eas t Atlanta . These
four owners reported plans to build new homes on this property .
5.
Forty-two of the eighty-two interviews were conducted during
aircra ft peak tra ffic periods . These forty-a~o interviews
l asted an average of seventeen minutes and were interrupted
an average of seven times for an average of eighty-one seconds
per interview, e.g 8% of the interview time was lost due to
aircraft noise.
0
The attitudinal results of the survey show the following ma j or
results:
1.
A majority of interviewees woul d prefer l iving e l sewher e to
living in Plunket town as it is presently constituted . (See
Question 11.)
2.
A ma jority of the interviewees consider aircraft noise, a
problem which canno t be fully solved, to be a ma jor probl em
to living in Plunke ttown . (See Questions 10a, 15 , and 17b.)
3.
There appears to be a desire among some o f the interviewees
to move together to a " New Plunkettown". At this point in
time , fully reli able attitudes on this issue c annot be expected
as the people do not now h ave a real opportunity to consider
this choice . (See Questions 12 and the "Many of my friends
live here" response in 17 a .)
4.
If they were to move, there is a definite desir e among the
interviewees to remain in an outlying area, as opposed to
downtown , where they c an occupy single family type houses.
( See Questions 12a and 13.)

(~ /)JS_
SUBJECT: Consolidation of Urban Renewal Policy Committee into
Planning and Development Committee
At the request of Alderman G. Everett Mi 11 ican,the attached proposed
Ordinance is being sent to you for rev·iew. The Ordinance calls for
doing away with the Urban Renew·a l Policy Committee and transferring
its duties and responsibi I ities to the Planning and Development Committee.
The matter was brought up at the last Board meeting by Alderman Rodney
Cook.
With the exception of Alderman Hugh Pierce,the four other aldermanic
members of the Urban Renewal Policy Committee are also members of
the Planning and Development Committee. In order to facilitate the
change, the proposal is made to increase the Planning and Development
Committee by one aldermanic member in order to add Alderman Pierce
for the remainder of 1969 . For 1970 and beyond, a reduction back to
se ve r. al de rma nic me mbers is suggested for consideration at a later date .
Since much of the area of concern of the Urban Renewal Policy Committee
is a lso shared by the Planning and Development Committee and their
membe rsh ips a re prac tica lly the same , little change will actually result
in th is a ct ion e x cept to reduce the number of sta nding comm i ttees .

IN RE:

-- Department of Planning
Reference is made to a mimeograph-type letter dated April 16, 1969
from complainants, a copy of which was directed to the Mayor and to
Alderman Griggs.
In accordance with the Mayor's referral of this
matter to Mr. Gladin and the request of Alderman Griggs, an investigation of the matter was conducted with the following results.
I conferred with Mr. Collier B. Gladin, Director, and Mr. Thompson
H. Shuttleworth, Zoning Administrator, both of the Planning Department, relative to this matter and they furnished the following information.
A zoning petition was filed April 25, 1968 by Lewis Cenker for rezoning of property on Brownlee Road.
The first public hearing in the
matter was set for June 6, 1968 before the Zoning Committee, at which
time the matter was deferred for revised site plans by the petitioner.
The deferment was until November 7, 1968.
Subsequently the petition
was denied by the Board of Aldermen on November 18, 1968, as the plans
were not available.
The matter was again initiated by the Zoning Com-
mittee on December 31, 1968, after the petitioner's attorney indicated
he would have the plans ready and a public hearing was scheduled for
February 6 , 1969 .
�The c ase , more specifically described as Zoning Case No. Z-68-225-C,
was postponed on February 6, 1969 by the Alderrnanic Zoning Committee
at the request of the connnunity and the developer to _provide an opportunity for discussion of the issue.
The petition was to be deferred
f or a period of 60 days and it was announced that the public hearing
would be held on April 10, 1969.
A meeting between community residents and the developer was scheduled
to be held in the Planning Department office on Monday, March 31, 1969,
however, this meeting was cancelled as the City Hall was closed in
tribute to the late President Eisenhower.
The Planning Department staff did not bring the case before the Zoning
Cornmittee on April 10th, since the March 31st meeting had been cancelled.
However, when area residents appeared at the hearing on
April 10th, Mr. Shuttleworth had the case file brought from the
Planning Department to the Alderrnanic Chamber.
Mr. Shuttleworth
advised that through an error on his part, the ·case was not actually
scheduled for hearing on April 10th.
In the course of the meeting on April 10th, area residents were offered
several options in considering the case.
The Committee offered to hear
from the residents at that time and the developer at a later time, or,
second , to hear from residents and the developer _at a later mutually
agreeable time.
dents.
Neither option appeared agreeable to connnunity resi-
They were, however, permitted to speak in opposition to the
petition and were assured another opportunity to speak when 'the
developer came to present his case.
Page Two
�Mr. Gladin and Mr. Shuttleworth expressed regret for any inconvenience
they may have caused community residents in this misunderstanding over
the hearing date for the zoning petition.
They are strongly of the
opinion , however, that members of the planning staff have made every
possible effort to work with the community in discussing the issues
in this case and will continue to do so.
As a matter of information, the Atlanta-Fulton County Joint Planning
Board has recommended approval of this zoning petition.
The Planning
Department staff also recommends approval in that the proposed use
conforms with the Atlanta Land Use Plan, which has been adopted by
the Mayor and Board of Aldermen.
Also of possible interest, it was reported that Mr. Cenker, the petitioner in this matter, has agreed to hold in abeyance any further action
in this matter pending a Georgia Tech Land Use Study.
As a result of prior telephonic arrangements with Mrs. Jacobs, she and
Mr s. Walker appeared at my office to discuss this matter on the morning
of May 8, 1969.
They explained that Mrs. Hope had planned to be present
but was unable to keep the appointment.
It was their opinion that Mrs.
Hope would have no information of value in addition to that information
in their possession.
At my request, Mr. Henry M. Murff, of the Law
Department, attended this conference.
After lengthy discussion of the case at hand, the law as applied to
zoning and the administrative handling of zoning matters were explained in detail to Mrs. Jacobs and Mrs. Walker.
Page Three
�The handling of the case at hand by the Planning Department and
cormnittees involved also was explained in detail to these ladies.
The contents of referenced letter of April 16, 1969 were reviewed with
the ladies, at which time they stated they had no information whatsoever which would indicate any wrongdoing on the part of any employee,
official or elected representative of the City of Atlanta.
Mrs. Jacobs and Mrs. Walker were more specifically questioned in
regard to Paragraph 16 of referenced letter
"16.
Are persons desiring favorable rulings on rezoning
petitions required to pay a fee under the table
and off the record to elected officials or paid
City Hall staffers?"
Mrs. Jacobs and Mrs. Walker advise they have no information to substantiate any possible inference of wrongdoing in the above quoted
paragraph.
In view of the above information, it would appear that no further
action is warranted at this time.

�ATTITUDE SURVEY OF THE
P-ESIDENTS OF LIGHTNING
City of Atlanta
Dep artment of Planning
November 13, 1969
�This report deals with the results of an attitude survey conducted
in Lightning. The section of Atlanta known as Lightning is bounded by
Northside Drive, Hunter Street, and Simpson Street. Lightning is zoned
for industrial use.
This survey was conducted by the City of Atlanta Planning Department
upon the request of the citizens of Lightning. The citizens voiced their
support for this survey or a community meeting held Tuesday, October 14,
1969.
The Lightning attitude survey was conducted for several reasons.
First of all, the questionnaire is aimed at securing two basic types of
information. The first group of questions, one through nine, deal with
the attainment of factual information, such as the number of persons in
each household. The second group of questions, ten through seventeen,
explore the attitudes of the people toward living in Lightning and the
problems involved .
In addition to securing information, a second purpose of this survey
is to let the citizens of Lightn ing know that the City of Atlanta is concerned and interested in their problems. A third purpose of the Lightning
survey is to get both the citizens of Lightning and the City of Atlanta to
start thinking about the short and long range problems of this area. This
includes the exposure of short range problems that can perhaps be solved
in the near future, with the people of Lightning and the city working
together.
The survey was conducted Tuesday, October 28, 1969 through Thursday,
October 30, on a door-to-door verbal interview basis. Twelve interviewers,
bl a ci: end wh it e , ~e r e us e t o cond uc t t .c su . cy : One City Pla nning
Department employee, two City Planning Department int erns, one Model
Cities employee, and eight HUD interns. (A list of interviewers appears
in appendix A). They interviewed a total of 105 households, which is
77% of the total number of households in Lightning. Contact at each
household was attempted at least three times: Morning, afternoon, and
evening.
General Re sult s
The factual results of the survey show that:
1.
Forty-four per cent (44%) of the respondents live in housing
which is overcrowded, having one or more persons per room.
2.
Of the 105 households surveyed, eighty-one per cent (81%)
rented their residences and the remaining nineteen per cent
(19%) were home-owners. Seventy-five per cent (75%) of the
renters and eighty per certt (80%) of the homeowners stated
that they could not afford to pay more for housing.
�- 2 -
3.
Seventy-four of the interviewers, or seventy per cent (70%)
were unemployed, due to disability, retirement, household
responsibility or simple lack of ability to find work.
4.
The average length of residence in Lightning of the respondents
was nineteen years, with a range of 1.5 months to sixty-six years.
5.
The average age of the respondents was 52.4 years, with a range
of twelve to eighty-two7 years.
The attitudinal results of the survey show the following major
findings:
1.
The majority of interviewees (85%) like living in Lightning.
However, of the ninety-eight respondents saying whether they
would like c o live elsewhere (See question 12), fifty-three
per cent (53%) answered affirmatively, with the remaining fortyseven per cent (47%) preferring to remain in Lightning.
2.
Ninety-one out of the 105 interviewees feel like they are members
of the Lightning community and belong with the people there.
3.
Housing was the most frequently-mentioned problem in Lightning,
with fifty-two per cent (52%) of the respondents listing it.
(See question 13).

�ATTITUDE SURVEY OF THE
RE SIDENTS OF PLUNKETTOWN
City of At l anta
Dep artment of Pl anning
Augus t 11 , 1969
�-
This report presents the results of an attitude survey conducted
among the people of the Atlanta section of Plunkettown by the City of
Atlanta Department of Planning at the request of the Mayor and Board
of Aldermen . The purpose of this survey was to explore, on a broad
base, the atti tudes of the people toward living in Plunke ttown versus
living elsewhere, and to discover which aspects of life in Plunkettown
the people consider to be major problems . The ultimate purpose of this
report is to provide information concerning the people ' s desires toward
r emai ning in Plunket town to help the Board of Aldermen in making the
dec ision as to whether or not an urban renewal project in Plunkettown
will be a residential rehabilitation and rebuilding project.
Interviews were conducted during the daytime hours on Friday,
August 1 , and Monday , August 4, and during the evening hours on Tuesda y, August 5. The group of interviewers who conducted the survey
included t wo members of the Planning Department staff and five summer
i nterns from the Mayor ' s office . All interviewers were white . (A list
of int erviewers appears in Appendix A.)
Methodology
The survey was c onducted through use of a door -to-door ora l interview . An attempt was made t o conduct at le as t one interview in each
household. Contact was attempted at each household at leas t three
times : morning , afternoon , and evening. In all, interviews were conducted in eighty-two hous eholds , or 85% of all households.
The interview questionnaire contained two basic types of questions .
The first type asked f or factu al information such as place of work,
travel time to work, number of persons in the household, and ownership
of property . The second asked atti tud inal questions about the desirability of Plunket town as a place to live as compared to other places.
General Reoults
The factual resul ts of the survey show that:
1.
The workers who live in Plunkettown have an average reported
t ravel time to work of twenty minutes by car; and that over
half ( 26 of 41) work within two miles of Plunkettown.
2.
Thirty-eight per cent (38%) of the present housing is overcrowded, having one or more persons per room.
3.

The attitudinal results of the survey show the following ma j or
results:
1.
A majority of interviewees woul d prefer l iving e l sewher e to
living in Plunket town as it is presently constituted . (See
Question 11.)
2.
A ma jority of the interviewees consider aircraft noise, a
problem which canno t be fully solved, to be a ma jor probl em
to living in Plunke ttown . (See Questions 10a, 15 , and 17b.)
3.
There appears to be a desire among some o f the interviewees
to move together to a " New Plunkettown". At this point in
time , fully reli able attitudes on this issue c annot be expected
as the people do not now h ave a real opportunity to consider
this choice . (See Questions 12 and the "Many of my friends
live here" response in 17 a .)
4.
If they were to move, there is a definite desir e among the
interviewees to remain in an outlying area, as opposed to
downtown , where they c an occupy single family type houses.
( See Questions 12a and 13.)
