Re: White Alws Building
Dear Mr. Johnson:

A copy of your letter dated January 10, 1969, addressed to
Mr. R. Earl Landers has been referred to the Building Department
for study and reply.

The contents of your letter indicates that you are aware of
the hazardous building conditions which concern the White Alms
Building, as well as subsequent litigation which has transpired
since an inspection revealed the building condition early in
July of 1968.

The request of time extension for occupation of condemned
structure to June 30, 1969, is beyond the prerogative of the Building
Inspector since without extensive repairs safety to the inhabitants.
is questionable.

As the Building Official for the City of Atlanta I can understand
the plight of the Municipal Theatre Groups which occupy the building;
however, as my first obligation is toward the preservation of life
and property through Code enforcement, I must decline an extension
of time and ask that the structure be repaired or demolished.

Very truly yours,
W. R. Wofford oe
WRW: gs Building Official

bec..Mr. R. Earl Landers
Mr. Jack Delius
