Mr. Johnny Johnson, Director
Model Cities Program

673 Capitol Avenue, S. W.
Atlanta, Georgia.

Dear Johnny:

This letter is in ressonse to your verbal request back in the spring
for more particization by the Planning Department staff in the Model Cities
physical planning effort. However, to meet our 1969 program, we must
have in writing exactly what tosks you wish us to perform, what manoower
you think it will require, and when the work must be accomplished. Without
such Information, it will be very difficult for us to respond any further than
we already have.

As you know, the physical nlonning efforts should mesh closely within
the proposed 1770 Neighborhood Davelooment Program activities and your own
1970 action year progrem development. Since Neighborhood Development
Program deadiines ore approaching with bewildering sceed, every doy that
passes makes the time factor more critical. Woe wish to do all we can fo
help but our other commitments must be met also. So it Is essential that we
receive a concrete exoression of your needs right away.

As we have scid before, we will do everything we con to assist the
physical planning efforts in Model Cities in achieving the maximum benefit
for that area ond the entire city. There is, however, one limitation which

at A
Ms, Johnny Johnson “2-6 duly 9, 1969

we have expressed before. The department will be unable to accent total
responsibility in the area of cjtizens' involvement. The ressonsibility of
obtaining citizen review and approval must continue fo rest with your agency
which was stoffed for this purpose during at feast the 1969 planning year.
Other thon this single limitation we are willing to do everything we con to
support tha Model Cities Program.

Sincerely yours,

Collier 8. Gladin
Planning Director
