Mr. Forrest Gee
Purchasing Agent |
City of Atlanta .

Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Forrest:
I am attaching several invoices, bills, etc. which have been

forwarded to this office by the Atlanta Urban Corps for payment.
These bills total $1, 610. 79. |

These obligations were incurred by the Urban Corpse prior to its
budget being established within the City budget. As a result, these
invoices did not receive prior approval by your office or by the
Department of Finance.

The 1969 Urban Corps budget will be approved by the Finance
Committee on Monday, June 16. Provisions will be made in

that budget to meet these expenditures. Funds sufficient to meet
the attached expenditures are available from private contributions
that have been made to the Urban Corps. Even so, we recognize
that these obligations have not been incurred in accordance with |
the accepted City procedures. We are taking steps to see that |
the Urban Corps follows City procedures hereafter.

It would be appreciated, therefore, if you would review these
invoices, approve them for payment, and forward to Mr. Jay
Fountain, Deputy Direttor of Finance,

Very truly yours,

George J. Berry
Administrative Coordinator
