SUBJECT: Status of Proposed Housing Studies

Three proposals concerning the Housing Study to be conducted by the City
of Atlanta were recently submitted by Eric Hill Associates. These pro-
posals were sent to various agencies, including the Atlanta Regional Metro-
politan Planning Commission, to encourage their opinions and to determine
any possible overlapping areas between the City's proposed housing study
and any other studies likely to be conducted in the area of housing.

On Thursday, June 19, 1969, Margaret (Peg) Breland of ARMPC, presented
the broad outline of a study that ARMPC is planning to conduct concerning
housing. Larry Fonts, of the Fulton County Planning Commission, Louis
Dismukes of Eric Hill Associates, and George Aldridge and Cindy McCloud
of the City of Atlanta Planning Department attended this meeting.

It was determined at this time that there were possible areas of over-
lap between ARMPC's proposed housing study and the City's proposed housing
study. The Atlanta Regional Metropolitan Regional Planning Commission has
been requested by this office to provide us with a copy of the broad out-
line of their proposed study. Upon receipt, the Department will study
this proposal and try to resolve any areas of overlap or duplication that
may have arisen.

Copies of the ARMPC proposal will be forwarded to the Chairman of the
Housing Restudy Panel of the Housing Resources Committee for their use and
perusal. Any comments from this group would be welcomed.

Ultimately, we hope to schedule another meeting at which time we
shall discuss the ARMPC proposal and the City proposal for a housing study

as revised,
