Re: 525 Ira Street, as
12-Unit Brick Apartment ot
Dear Mr. Satterfield:
I should like to acquaint you with a disgusting and unfair
recent experience of mine, which theoretically involves
the Atlanta Housing Authority, regarding the above piece
of property.
Mr. Waller of your office, with whom I have recently talked,
confirmed the fact that one of our representatives (since
I am a taxpayer) made the colossal error of mentioning to
some of the tenants at this address that he was there to
appraise the property which would eventually be turned over
to some city sreleet, Since that time, the tenants have
eee teat ta and I have now a vacant 12-unit
apartment building in an area that is high in vandalism.
I am paying my taxes and my insurance as prescribed by law.
Please tell me to whom I can appeal in an attempt to arrive
at some act of justice involving this piece of property.
y experience with the Atlanta Housing Authority, through
the years, has been most gratifying and fair; and I am sure
that somewhere in the inte mental structure of the city
some mistake has been made. roximately three years ago I
= hone casas ie the city, through its many tors, to
to staedard” citing specific improvements
to . anée. ty seat of which was between three and five
thousand dollars. Mark you, this investment is hardly three
years old.

It may be that the best I can expect to receive from this
letter is a very courteous, sorrowful reply such as given
me by Mr. Waller; but I certainly think you should be
acquainted with the facts listed above. I am taking the
liberty of sending a copy of this to Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr.,
because I feel that there are many people with a common
experience.
Sincerely yours,
R, C. Hackney
