Re: Atlanta Youth Council
Model Cities Grant

Dear Mayor Allen:

Iam writing you as a result of the discussion at
the Board Meeting of the Youth Council yesterday with
respect to our applications under the Model Cities Program.

The Youth Council would like very much to cooperate
with the review committee which you have established which
is reviewing the Model Cities proposals. I have asked Louis
Dinkins to attend the first review meeting, which I understand
is today, in order that he might answer any questions and
supply additional information with respect to the Youth Council
proposal which is being considered.

We would appreciate it if your review committee would
give us the opportunity to appear at other meetings where the
Youth Council proposals are being discussed. It has been my

experience from other sessions involving proposals for
federal grants that sometimes a few minutes of conversation
are as valuable and sometimes as explanatory as several
pages of written material.

Very truly yours,

ATLANTA CHILDREN AND
YOUTH SERVICES COUNCIL
