Looking at the year ahead, with the
increasing travel that will be required around
the state and the time that I will be away fron

Dear Ivan:
Here's a copy of my letter to Dick Rich
at the end of the year. Rapid Transit just
isn't my cup of tea, so seriously let's replace me.
It seems awfully silly to me that the
Transit Authority and others interested in
downtown traffic flow seem to want to avoid
Robert Sommerville of the Transit Company.
He really ought to be participating at
every turn of the road in everything connected
with t r ansportation here in Atlanta.

Minutes
Upon motion by Mr. Bishop, seconded by Mr. Blount, the reading
of the minutes of the July meeting was dispensed with and they
were unanimously approved.
Financial Report
The General Manager presented the financial report as of July 31,
1967, which is attached hereto and made a part of these minutes ~
DeKalb County had sent in its second quarterly payment; Gwinnett
County was the only one in arrears.
Progress Reports
General Manager
Mr. Stuart reported on the two-week managerial seminar he attended
at Kent State University, Kent, Ohio, sponsored by Kent University
and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The General Manager said Los Angeles, Seattle and Washington, D.C.,
were to have referenda during 1968 with regard to rapid transit.
He pointed out that insufficiency of federal funds may be less
important than the competition from these cities. Mr. Rich mentioned the importance of taking steps to hold a referendum in 1968.
Mr. Stuart reported on meetings with Cousins Properties regarding
MARTA's requirements. Cousins Properties were about to incur certain construction expenses in the Air Rights area in their efforts
to provide for future rapid transit operations; these were costs
that could be charged to MARTA under appropriate agreements. Mr.
Stuart requested the Board's approval to continue negotiations
with Cousins. Costs involved had not been determined; however,
Mr. Stuart estimated them to be between $70,000 and $90,000. The
Chief Engineer was to meet with representatives from Cousins Properties and reach agreement as to exact costs which would be eventually chargeable to MARTA, when funds were available. MARTA
would be responsible for accrued interest as well.
It was moved
by Mr. Bishop and seconded by Mr. Haverty that the General Manager
continue negotiations with Cousins Properties with an indication
of intent o~ the part of the Authority, provided all requirements
were met.

�Mr. Stuart said the proposed subcontract between Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel and Law Engineering Testing Company for test
borings had been reviewed and found to be in order. Upon motion
by Mr. Bishop, seconded by Mr. McMillan, approval was given to proceed with the subcontract.
Mr. Rich suggested that in the future the General Manager prepare
a brief write-up on each proposed subcontract prior to the Board
meeting.

"Rapid Busways" Proposal
As a result of a request from Mayor Ivan Allen, the Board had directed
the MARTA staff to review the rapid busways proposal made recently
by the Atlanta Transit System. Mr. Stuart read the complete report
of this evaluation, the summary of which is attached hereto and made
a part of the minutes.
In response to a question from Mr. Blalock, Mr. Stuart said the
rights-of-way for rapid busways and rapid transit were not the same.
The Chairman polled each Director for his reaction to the report.
Mr. McMillon was emphatic in hoping that nothing would divert the
Board from its efforts to bring rail rapid transit to metropolitan
Atlanta. Mr. Bishop said he was concerned with the legal entangle-
ments involved in the busways proposal. Mr. Haverty stated he would
be interested in the rebuttal from the Atlanta Transit System with
regard to the report. Mr. Adamson felt there were too many problems
and that there would be a delay in rapid transit if the busways
proposal were accepted.
After discussion, it was moved by Mr. Blount, seconded by Mr. Bishop,
and unanimously agreed that the Chairman forward to Mayor Allen
MARTA's recommendation that the implementation of the "Rapid Bus-
ways" concept not be attempted.

Mayor IVAN ALLEN
CITY HALL of
ATLANTA, GEORGIA.
Dear Mayor Allen:
••• And Good Morning~
While the Yankees get the faster (150 to 183 m.p.h o) trains, and
get into the jet-age of rail road passenger trains, we here in the
south have to settle for a depleting policy of pass~nger railroad
trains as the malnutriciously anemic skeleton services catering
to the Georgians and the Atcbantans.
In one decade vve have had a remarkable doubling and more of our
population here in Atlanta, but, in retros pective viewing, we see
the shameful fact that the rail services serving a p opulation mul tiply ing city a s ours, h a s lost the ma jority of its p a ssen g e r tra ins.
In the last three and half y ears alone, we have lost Pullman Service
t o Sto Louis, Cincinnati, Mobile, New Orleans , Jacksonville , a nd
to Brun s wick, Memphis, Kansas City, Portsmouth, Norfolk, and t o
Birmingha m (depa rted, once , late, a nd s e t out e a rly) i and , t here
i s the now-dea d service to Cha rles ton a nd Wilmington.
Let's whip the North in s-ome~ing -- how about a new railroad sta tion, for a starter, then over- nite Sleeper trains to Jack sonville,
and t he othe r city d e s tinations me ntioned a bove .
Sure, we need a i r service, but w e a l so need railroad long-ha ul a nd
medinm =haul rail service.
Mayor, what can you do to improve ou r i mage in front of t h e ot her
49 Stat es and the thou s and s o f other cities i n the U nited St ates?
After a ll , we are a l arge, important city -- i n a very important State".

Dear Mayor Allen:
«.eAnd Good Morning:
While the Yankees get the faster (150 to 183 m.p.h.) trains, and
get into the jet-age of rail road passenger trains, we here in the
south have to settle for a depleting policy of passenger railroad
trains as the malnutriciously anemic skeleton services catering
to the Georgians and the Atdantans.
In one decade we have had a remarkable doubling and more of our
population here in Atlanta, but, in retrospective viewing, we see
the shameful fact that the rail services serving a population mul-
tiplying city as ours, has lost the majority of its passenger trains.
In the last three and half years alone, we have lost Pullman Service
to St. Louis, Cincinnati, Mobile, New Orleans, Jacksonville, and
to Brunswick, Memphis, Kansas City, Portsmouth, Norfolk, and to
Birmingham (departed, once, late, and set out early); and, there
is the now-dead service to Charleston and Wilmington.
Let's whip the North in semething -- how about a new railroad sta-
tion, for a starter, then over-nite Sleeper trains to Jacksonville,
and the other city destinations mentioned above.
Sure, we need air service, but we also need railroad long-haul and
meditZim =haul rail service.
Mayor, what can you do to improve our image in front of the other
49 States and the thousands of other cities in the United States?
After all, we are a large, important city -- in a very important State".

�these governments and expected payments soon. After a brief
discussion of the format of the statement, it was accepted
by the Board.
The financial statement is attached hereto and made a part
of these minutes.
Progress Reports:
1.
General Manager:
Mr. Stuart reported on a recent trip to W3shington, and
mentioned visits with Congressmen Fletcher Thompson and
Ben Blackburn. He said he had sent information about
MARTA to each of the Congressmen to inform them of ~he
plans for the area and to solicit their help in Congress.
Mr. Stuart had toured the proposed southern line of the
system and mentioned possible alternates. The Chairman
and others discussed the need for the southern line to
serve the stadium if possible.
An application to the State of Georgia for transit funds
was being prepared, and Mr. Stuart said it would be submitted at the appropriate time.
2.
Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel:
Mr. John Coil, Resident Manager of Parsons, BrinckerhoffTudor, Bechtel, reported that his firm had studied alternate southern lines and had developed an alternate which
would generally follow the south expressway.
In answer
to questions by members of the Board, he said access of
this proposed alternate southern line to the airport
terminal should depend upon plans of the local governments
to build a new air terminal. Mr. Coil said coordinated
timing of construction of the two proposed facilities
would be extremely important. The engineers felt that in
the absence of firm plans for relocating the terminal, the
proposed transit line should not be designed to serve that
particular location.
Detailed design of proposed construction in the gulch area
had been reviewed with contractors, who had cooperated in
the design and placement of supporting columns of buildings so as not to interfere with the transit system's
proposed turn - around in the area .
- 3 -
�Mr. Coil said the contractor for aerial photography,
MAPCO, Inc., had been given authority to complete photogrammetry on the east, west, and central lines, in that
order of priority.
Preliminary cost estimates for the 63.5 mile system had
been completed and the engineers were ready to work with
the economic consultants toward further refinement of
those estimates.
Parsons, Brinckerhoff-Tudor, Bechtel had submitted a
plan and profile of the proposed Atlanta system to their
San Francisco office. Through the use of computers there,
a program could be developed showing most economical
speeds and timing between stations.
3.
Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates:
Mr. Lawrence Greene of Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates
reported that a new set of tentative cost estimates by
six breakdowns had been submitted to them by the engineers. More information was to be submitted on estimated
patronage and a cost schedule by years.
The Hammer firm was developing final figures on required
participation by the local governments. Analyses of costs
being developed would include the total system, including
the Cobb County portion.
In response to questions of Boa rd members, it was e x plained further by Mr. Greene and Mr. Coil that cost
estimates would be prepared for (1) the initial system;
(2) the intermediate system (about 36 miles, with e x tensions) and (3) the tota l system of approx ima tely 63 . 5
miles. Thes e co s t estimates would not include a ny capi tal
i mpr o vemen ts o t h er than r oll i ng s tock .
Contr acts for Corridor Impact S tudy:
The General Man ager asked f o r a u tho rizat i on t o execu te a
c ont r act between t h e Metropol itan Atl a nta Rap i d Tran sit
Au tho rity a nd t he Atlanta Region Me tro p o litan Plann ing Co mmission, for $49 , 000 . 00 to c over the cost o f the c orrid or impact
s t u dy , di s cu ss ed a t the Feb r u ary me eting .
Mr. Bishop made a motion that the Genera l Manage r be empowered
to e x ecute the contract b e tween the Me tropolitan Atlanta Rapid
Transit Authority and the Atlanta Region Me t r opolita n Planning
-
4 -
�Commission for $49,000.00 for the corridor impact study.
Mr. Blount seconded the motion, and it was unanimously passed.
Mr. Bennett said the Planning Commission had, at its February 27
meeting, passed a similar resolution authorizing the execution
tif this contract.
Authorization under Retainer Agreement:
The General Manager reviewed an earlier authorization by the
Board for an expenditure of $2,000.00 for study of relocation
of tracks in the gulch area to cooperate with proposed construction in the area and also provide for transit lines. This
had been used successfully, and Mr. Stuart said he anticipated
the Nasher Corporation would soon require similar studies for
the area near the State Capitol if MARTA's interests in that
area were to be protected. He requested authorization to contract with the engineers for an additional $5,000.00 if required, for similar studies in the Capitol area.
Mr. Bishop made a motion that the General Manager be empowered
to negotiate a contract under the retainer agreement for whatever work was required for studies in the Capitol area gulch
in connection with proposed construction in that area, with a
limitation on the contract of $5,000.00, making a total
authorization for the studies of the two areas limited to
$7,000.00. Mr. McMillon seconded the motion, and it was
unanimously passed.
Authorization for Opening of a New Bank Account :
Mr. Stuart said a new bank account was needed for funds of the
new project recently approved, and after discussion, it was
agreed that these funds would be deposited in the Fulton
National Bank. It was further agreed that authorization for
signing of checks be the same as the account of the 702 project ,
namely :
either the Chairman, Vice Chairman or Secretary, and
either the General Manager or Chief Engineer .
Mr . Haverty made a motion that the General Manager be empowered
to open a new bank account in the Fulton National Bank, for the
deposit of funds of the newly approved p r oject , and that s ig na tur e authori zation fo r that accoun t be the same as t h e 70 2
account . The motio n was duly s e conded a n d un animous ly pa ss ed.

�-Statements by Officials from HUD:
Mr. Charles Haar, Assistant Secretary for Metropolitan Development, Department of Housing and Urban Development, Washington,
had met with elected officials and professional staff of the
local governments at a luncheon meeting earlier, and had presented a check f or $40,000.00 to Mr. Rich. This represented
the first installment of the newly approved project to the
Transit Authority. Mr. Haar commended the Authority for its
work and expressed the willingness of officials in the Department to cooperate with local governments whose plans were
coordinated for development of needed capital improvements.
Mr. Baxter of the Regional Office also expressed confidence
in MARTA, and offered the full resources of his office to
assure that an appropriate share of federal funds would continue to be made available to metropolitan areas in the South~
east.
The Chairman expresset1 the need for better communication with
the public and said full understanding by the community was
necessary to the success of the project.
Adjournment:

to open a new bank account in the Fulton National Bank, for the
deposit of funds of the newly approved project, and that signa-
ture authorization for that account be the same as the 702
account. The motion was duly seconded and unanimously passed.
Statements by Officials from HUD:
Mr. Charles Haar, Assistant Secretary for Metropolitan Develop-
ment, Department of Housing and Urban Development, Washington,
had met with elected officials and professional staff of the
local governments at a luncheon meeting earlier, and had pre-
sented a check for $40,000.00 to Mr. Rich. This represented
the first installment of the newly approved project to the
Transit Authority. Mr. Haar commended the Authority for its
work and expressed the willingness of officials in the Depart-
ment to cooperate with local governments whose plans were
coordinated for development of needed capital improvements.
Mr. Baxter of the Regional Office also expressed confidence
in MARTA, and offered the full resources of his office to
assure that an appropriate share of federal funds would con-
tinue to be made available to metropolitan areas in the South-
east.
The Chairman expressed the need for better communication with
the public and said full understanding by the community was
necessary to the success of the project.
Adjournment:
The meeting was adjourned at 4:45 P.M.
NOTE: The next meeting of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid
Transit Authority is scheduled for Tuesday, April 4.

As noted, relatively small payments would be required in the early
years of construction of the transit system.
MARTA's bond issues could be
modest because of the initial availability of sizable Federal funds under
the given assumption.
Subsequently, however, the impact upon the local
governments would be more substantial.
Followi_ng is the schedule of mill_age rates that would need to be
levied _against the net property digests in each county in order to meet ·
the indicated payments set for~h in Table 5, above:

pos sible a ceiling of on l y three mills in Fulton County in the peak years
and a ceili_ng of 1. 6 mills in DeKalb County.
This revised schedule would
produce more funds in the earlier years than would be needed if the MARTA ·
. bond program set forth herein is followed.
However, this bond program ·

The recommended schedule of county payments and millage rates for
MARTA bond financing is set forth below in Table 6.
The peak year payments
would be substantially reduced under this schedule and the peak impact upon
local taxpayers would be corrospondingly less ~

(The level annual
payments to the complete retirement of ·
bond issues b_e ginning
in 1997)
It is to be noted that the peak mill_a ge requirements under GO financing
.
(
would be substantially lower than in the case of government payments to underwrite MARTA bond issues.
This is true because the overall financi_n g cost is
lower and the gross rather than the net d_:l..gest is used as basis for the
calculations.
The lower interest charges are by all odds the most important
factor in this lower impact, the difference between_ gross and net digest being
relatively small.
As already mentioned, however, the reduced millage rate
does not necessarily produce a lower tax for the residential taxpayer because
the homestead exemption is not applicable~
Following are representative
figures on the tax impact of the maximum millage under GO bond financi_n g, and
these figures might be compared with the earlier figures for servici_n g MARTA
revenue bonds:

There· is no reason, of course, why both methods of financi_n g m_ight not
be employed by the local_ governments in meeting their obl_igations to MARTA,
for constructing the rapid transit system -- the collection. of property taxes
to support the issuance of MARTA bonds plus the issuance of general obligation
bonds by the governments themselves.
The act establishing MARTA clearly rec_o gnized this possibility, as follows:
"A local government may elect any.method provided in this
section to finance the participation required of it in
whole or in part, and the election of one method shall
not preclude the election of another method with respect
thereto or with respect to any additional or supplementary
participation determined to be necessary ."
As a purely practical matter, there would be a number of distinct advantages
o both Fulton and DeKalb counties in employi_n g both methods .
It would make
ossible the use of available GO bond capacity with the consequent saving in
·nt erest charges but it would not demand too much of that capacity in compet~tion
ith other capital improvement needs.
It would give each government_ greater

,
The reason for the lower local requirements for the _52-mile system in
..
the 1973-76 period, of- course, is the projected availability of
$100,000,000 more in Federal money.
This fact, plus the shari_ng of the local
cost by four instead of two governments, would produce an actually lowe,r demand upon Fulton and DeKalb for the larger system in a number of years.

GENERAL MANAGER'S QUARTERLY REPORT OF CONTRACT STATUS,
MARCH 31, 1967.
Cons i derable progress has been made under our several contracts and a detailed review is timely.
Our contractural obli-
gat i ons total $962,566 of which $616,709 (64¾) represents the
federal porti on and $345,857 represents the local matching funds.
The status of work shown is as of February 28, 1967:
I ..
The
11
701 11 Contracts signed June 28, 1966 tot(';ll $183,566 of
which the federal portion is $122,376.
The local portion of
Trans i t Authority funds is $61,189, all of which has been
paid to the ARMPC who is administering the work for us.
These p r o j ects are to update the 1962 report in its entirety.
The updated revisions will appear as a technical version and
a popular v ersion of a bound report similar in format to the

2.
Patronage, revenues and operating cost predictions
(75¾ complete).
3.

ARMPC will use the remaining $35,566 for administration
and supervision of the HGS and PB-T-B contracts, its own
staff's work and auditing and overhead char9eable to the
entire updating project.
Each of these units of work provides inputs to the others so
they will continue to move ahead on a common front and should
be wrapped up this summer.
is May 2, 1967.
The contractural completion date
The work was considerably delayed by the
late development of travel statistic~ by the Highway Department and the completion date will not be met.
The necessary
statistics are now in hand and the work is moving ahead at
a good pace.
Our total project will not be damaged by the
delay.
II.
The
11
702 11 Contract signed June 28, 1966 is for $125,00 0 with
PB- T-B to carry out preliminary engineering work on the
- 2 -
�system from Oglethorpe to the Airport.
This is an interest-
free federal loan that must be repaid when construction
begins.
No local funds are involved.
The preliminary
engineering work will be ·in suffic;ient detail to Gnable us
to initiate right of way acquisition, to provide us with
highly refined estimates of construction costs, and to provide us with a solid point of departure for the development
of final, detailed design and the preparation of contract
>·
plans and specifications.
Funds are requisitioned from HUD
in the exact amount required when we are invoiced.
$30,000 requisition and payment has been made.

The cont,ract carries a completion date of June 30, 1~67, but
we have decided to integrate this work with the work being
don~ under the technical studies grant (below).
As a result,
all of the preliminary engineering for the 44-mile system . Doraville-Forest Park and west from Hightower Road to I-285
and east frqm ~vondale Estates to I-285 - is being done simultaneously, aimed at a completion date of O,ecem'ber 31, 1968.
III. The Technical studies Grant (Section 9) Contracts are for a
total of $ 554,000 of which the federal portion is $369,333,
and the local portion is $184,667.
Federal funds are re-
quisitioned quarterly in advance at a raie ipdicated by
prog~ess of the work and the terms of the contracts.

$40,000
$20,000 of local funds
must be deposited to this account out of our next receipts.
I anticipate that we will be invoiced for parts of this work
in May, 1967 .
The wo;k is divided into three parts and contracts have just
been signed and work is just getting und,r way.
A.
PB-T-B has a contract signed February 2, 1967 for $500,000

B.
ARMPC has a contract signed March 10, 1967 for $49,000
to make a Corridor Impact Study.
$9,000 covers the
supervision and overhead they will provide to the subcontracts, Eric Hill Associates, who will do most of the
work of assessing the impact of our proposed rapid transit
system on the community.
We will receive recommendations
for changes in community plans or rapid transit plans in
the event that adverse impact or missed opportunities are
discovered.
The sub-contracts will check up on our relationship to:
1.
Land use and related controls.
2.
Public improvements planning.

�c.
Our impact on the Atlanta Transit will be substantial
and $5,000 has been reserved to start studies in this
field .
More money will be sought in future applications.
I am in touch with ATS officials to dete~mine the character of necessary study and plans .
IV.
The Retainer Agreement is a contract with PB-T-B for planning,
Consultant, or engineering services not covered by existing
contracts .
Each item of work is authorized and budgeted by
the Board.
PB-T-B cannot initiate any work under this con-
tract that will cause total charges under the contract to exceed $100,000.

The status of work shown is as of February 28, 1967:
Le
The "701" Contracts signed June 28, 1966 total $183,566 of
which the federal portion is $122,376. The local portion of
Transit Authority funds is $61,189, all of which has been
paid to the ARMPC who is administering the work for us.
These projects are to update the 1962 report in its entirety.
The updated revisions will appear as a technical version and
a popular version of a bound report similar in format to the
1962 reports. The work is in three parts.
A. Hammer, Greene, Siler Associates has a $48,000 contract
to update the financing aspects which is about 70% com-
plete. It covers:
1, Methods of financing.
2. Sources of financing.
3- Derivation of formula for sharing the financial
Lis
load between the several political jurisdictions.
4. Assistance to local governments to evaluate their
financial ability.
5. Preparation of a financial plan in line with the
above.
B. PBTB has a $100,000 contract to update the other parts
of the 1962 report which is about 70% complete. It
covers:
l. Route and station locations (90% complete).
2. Patronage, revenues and Operating cost predictions
(75% complete).
3, Report preparation (20% complete).
C. ARMPC will use the remaining $35,566 for administration
and supervision of the HGS and PB-T-B contracts, its own
staff's work and auditing and overhead chargeable to the
entire updating project.
Each of these units of work provides inputs to the others so
they will continue to move ahead on a common front and should
be wrapped up this summer. ‘The contractural completion date
is May 2, 1967. The work was considerably delayed by the
late development of travel statistics by the Highway Depart-
ment and the completion date will not be met. The necessary
statistics are now in hand and the work is moving ahead at
a good pace. Our total project will not be damaged by the
delay.
The "702" Contract signed June 28, 1966 is for $125,000 with
PB-T-B to carry out preliminary engineering work on the
=2-*
system from Oglethorpe to the Airport. This is an interest-
free federal loan that must be repaid when construction
begins. No local funds are involved. The preliminary
engineering work will be in sufficient detail to enable us
to initiate right of way acquisition, to provide us with
highly refined estimates of construction costs, and to pro-
vide us with a solid point of departure for the development
of final, detailed design and the preparation of contract
plans and specifications. Funds are requisitioned from WUD
in the exact amount required when we are invoiced. One
$30,000 requisition and payment has been made. The contract
is 44% complete. It covers:
A. Establishment of design basis by developing information
on: (65% complete)
1. Utilities.
2. Existing building foundations.
3. Subsurface structures.
4, Street and highway facilities.
5. Railroad structures,
6. Geology.
B. Preliminary design of typical and of selected special
items (49% complete) :
1. Structures.
2. Stations.
3. Functional layout of Transit Center.
4. Functional layout of shops and yards.
a See
IIt.
5. Equipment requirements.
Cc. Preliminary engitdertig plans (45%' complete) :
1. Base maps.
2. Alignment of tracks.
3. Station sites.
D. Cost estimates (not started):
1. Construction.
2. Right of way.
The contract carries a completion date of June 30, 1967, but
we have decided to integrate this work with the work being
done under the technical studies grant (below). As a result,
all of the preliminary engineering for the 44-mile system -
Doraville-Forest Park and west from Hightower Road to I-285
and east from Avondale Estates to I-285 - is being done simul-
taneously, aimed at a completion date of December 31, 1968.
The Technical Studies Grant (Section 9) Contracts are for a
total of $554,000 of which the federal portion is $369,333,
and the local portion is $184,667. Federal funds are re-
quisitioned quarterly in advance at a rate indicated by
progress of the work and the terms of the contracts. $40,000
has been requisitioned and received. $20,000 of local funds
must be deposited to this account out of our next receipts.
I anticipate that we will be invoiced for parts of this work
in May, 1967.
The work is divided into three parts and contracts have just
been signed and work is just getting under way.
A. PB-T=-B has a contract signed February 2, 1967 for $500,000
= 4 =
Be
covering:
1. Preliminary Engineering:
(a) East Line to I-285.
(b) West Line to I-285.
(c) Northeast Line - Oglethorpe to Doraville.
(ad) South Line Airport to Forest Park.
2. Support at public hearings on whole system.
3. Formal Technical Report on all preliminary engineer-
ing (702 and Section 9).
ARMPC has a contract signed March 10, 1967 for $49,000
to make a Corridor Impact Study. $9,000 covers the
supervision and overhead they will provide to the sub-
contracts, Eric Hill Associates, who will do most of the
work of assessing the impact of our proposed rapid transit
system on the community. We will receive recommendations
for changes in community plans or rapid transit plans in
the event that adverse impact or missed opportunities are
discovered.
The sub-contracts will check up on our relationship to:
1. Land use and related controls.
2- Public improvements planning.
3. Urban design.
4, Local development plans.
5. Urban renewal projects.
6. Private development plans.
7. Benefit to disadvantaged groups.
8. Other public programs.
Cc. Our impact on the Atlanta Transit will be substantial
and $5,000 has been reserved to start studies in this
field. More money will be sought in future applications.
I am in touch with ATS officials to determine the charac-
ter of necessary study and plans.
IV. The Retainer Agreement is a contract with PB-T-B for planning,
Consultant, or engineering services not covered by existing
contracts. Each item of work is authorized and budgeted by
the Board. PB-T-B cannot initiate any work under this con-
tract that will cause total charges under the contract to ex-
ceed $100,000. Its condition as of March 31, 1967 is as
follows:

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