Mr. Joe Akin

Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Mr. Akin:

Miss Evelyn Dewberry of our office gave me the sub-
stance of her telephone conversation with you last Saturday
regarding the property located at 2104 Oak View Road, S. E.

I have referred this matter to Mr. J. H. Buchanan,
Chief Housing Code Inspector of the City of Atlanta, since this
is entirely within his area of responsibility.

I have asked Mr. Buchanan to have one of his field
inspectors to get in touch with you in order to see if something
could be worked out in regard to the property.

Be recent State law, five property owners can bring a
complaint against a property, have a hearing, and if the property
is in bad enough shape, have the Building Official of the City of
Atlanta to demolish the property or .to close it. Possibly, this
would be the best approach.

If we can be of further assistance to you in this matter,
please let us know.

Yours very truly,
