Subject: Review of Code Enforcement Policy in Model Cities Area

Attached is a copy of a memorandum from Jim Wright to me

spelling out the revised policy of the Atlanta Housing Authority -
and the City's Hcusing Code Division in the Model Cities area.

This came about as a result of problems being called to our

attention in the Adair Park Area where the city had completed

a house by house rehabilitation program within the last few years.

You might recall at the time we were discussing the Model
Cities Program with residents of that area, they were very
much concerned with housing code activity which was going on
at that time.

We assured them we would not place them in double jeopardy
when the Model Cities Program started. There were indications
that we were doing this by requiring the same property owners
to bring their property in line with the new code standards of

the Atlanta Housing Authority under the Model Cities Program.
This revised policy was adopted after a meeting in my office
with officials of the Housing Authority, the Building Department
and Model Cities.
