CENTRAL CITY NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICE CENTER 9
840 Marietta Street, N, W.
Atlanta, Georgia 3031:



August 11, 1969

TO: Mr. C. Tommy Hess, Center Director
FROM: Mr. Milton R. Lincotn, Social Service Counselor

RE: Progress during second week of operation of Mill Village Office
and recommendaticns. ;

Mr. Golden, Mill representative, had notices sent to the remaining
residents of the village to let them know that beginning Monday, August
11, 1969, the Mill Village referral office will be open from 2:00 p.m.
to 6:00 p.m. in order for the working people to have a chance to come
by and let us know if we can be of any service to them.

Several residents came in during the past week to see if we could tell
them when they would hear from the Atlanta Housing Authority. In checke-
ing we found that some of the residents hadi not filled out an application
even though they had been to the referral center previously. this was
due to the fact that Mr. McGill from the Atlanta Housing Authcrity did
not process any applications during the twce days he was present at the
center,

A representative from F.H.A. did come on Thureday, August 7, 1969.
Several residents did come in to talk with this representative, however, —
the consensus was that must residents preferred to rent with the option
to buy later, if they so choose. It is felt that the information given
by this repzesentative was reccived favorably by the residents.

‘PR RESS:

Out of the 48 families, we have been dealing with, 27 have fourid housing
for themselves. ‘On Fridey, August 8, 1969, Mr. Golden produced a list
of 21 families that still needed pldcing. dut of the 2] families, 6
have either been approved for public housing or have located housing and
will be mowing by August 31, 1969. This leaves the referral center with
a total of 15 families who have not been placed. It is felt that since
the referral center's hours have been extended, it will enable those

who have not been in to the center a better chance to get there and it
will enable center referral workers to get out into the community in

the evenings and contact working heads of households,
