Dear Mrs. Hughes:

Your request of April 25th to Mayor Ivan Allen for information
pertaining to Atlanta's Housing Resources Committee has been referred
te me for reply.

_ The initial approach used in involving civic leaders and others
in the low and moderate income housing program was the Mayor's Housing
Gonference, November 15, 1966. attended by some 300 local, State and
Federal Officials, as well as by local Business, Civic, Educational and
Religious leaders.

Enclosed for your information is a copy of Mayor Allen's
Address at the Conference which established goals and set the scope
and climate for the program.

Also attached is a copy of the Mayor's Announcement of initial
appointments to the Committee. This nucleus then selected additional
members who were appointed by the Mayor, to serve without compensation,
and organized the Committee into eight working panels with an Executive
Committee consisting of the overall Chairman, two Co-Chairmen and |
Chairman of each panel. The Executive Committee carries on the routine
work of the Committee as a whole and normally meets once a month to
transact such business.
