ATLANTA VRBAN CORPS

Dear Mr. Sweat:
Enclosed is a copy of the minutes of the first meeting of the Board of
Trustees of the Atlanta Urban Corps. Inc. Please notify Sam Williams of any
additions or corrections.
Also enclosed is a copy of the By-laws which were unavailable at the
meeting. These were accepted as a beginning set until the next meeting
I feel it necessary to tell you that in my opinion these By-laws. which
I hadn't seen prior to the meeting. are so poorly prepared that the task of
revision is rather a task of starting over. I have advised Dr. Bloom. as
Chairman of the By-laws Committee, of my feelings. I am also passing on to
him what constructive comments I can. I hope you will do the same.
The Urban Corps effort is continuing under the leadership of Sam Williams
and the students who are giving so much of their time to it. A large number
of students will be placed in community service positions this summer as a
result of their work and an integrated educational program is being prepared.
It seems to me that the task of the Board of Trustees is to develop a
structure that can represent the various interests in an Urban Corps, assume
responsibility for operation of an Urban Corps, and assure its continuation.
In view of the requirements of By-laws development and the pressing cemancs of
immediate program operations. the May meeting of the Board of Trustees is
postponed until the By-laws Committee is ready to report and the Staff
Director is prepared to present a review of program operation.
Sincerely yours.
