Atlanta, Georgia

SUBJECT: Southeast Corner of Intersection of North
Highland, N.E. and Washita Avenue, N.E.

Dear Mies Kelley:

Thank you very much for your letter of June 6, 1969,
which has just been received.

We are working under virtually emergency conditions
attempting to meet the critical recreation needs for
the summer here in Atlanta. Every available man

and every piece of equipment is well scheduled several
weeks in advance and the only way I wonldtbenable to
beautify the southeast corner of the above intersection
would be to divert our efforts from the disadvantaged
areas of the City. This is to in no way to suggest
that I don't look with favor upon your request. My
maintenance superintendent however, is quite concerned
as to whether or not once we beautify this particular
location if we will be called upon to renovate all

the vacant properties which are pending development

as part of the Stone Mountain Freeway. Our cwews are
very limited and we must assign priorities to every
project undertaken.

Iam sorry to have to be so negative about this matter
and it is personally very flustering to me that we

can not immediately accomdate you since we do have a
beautification program underway,

Sincerely,

cack C. Delius
General Manager of
Parks and Recreation
