Dear Mr. Sweat:

30303

Thank you very much for your letter of
the enclosed correspondence between you and HUD regarding Section
114 of the City of Atlanta Plumbing Code.

COUNSEL

A. WALTON NALL
MORTYN K. ZIETZ
HAMILTON DOUGLAS



(404) S22-2200

September 9 and

I note that on Page Two of HUD's reply to your letter

the following appears:

"Thus Section 114 of the Atlanta Plumbing Code meets
present Departmental standards as to content and

intent if the section is interpreted to permit the choice
of allowable materials on all floors constructed to

Building Code specifications.

Such interpretation

would also make this Section consistent with a policy
of permitting the construction of housing at the
lowest possible cost without lowering reasonable
standards of safety and durability."

In view of its very clear expression on this matter,
it does not seem unreasonable to hope that HUD's interpretation
will in the future be followed in the enforcement of Section 114
by the Atlanta Building Department.

ESW/1w

Sincerely yours,

Fduurerd 2D, (ihe

Edward S. White
