SUBJECT: Attached Memorandum

The attached memorandum received from the Washington Office)
of the Department of Housing and Urban Development deals |
mainly with the method for using unspent and surplus Model
Cities supplemental funds and establishing a date for the
beginning of our 2nd year program.

It is our projection that at the end of our present contract
year, May 31, 1970, we will have approximately $2, 500,000.00
in unspent and unallocated funds. After examining all of the
various possibilities for the use of these funds, the staff
has determined that they should be used for one-time Caplan
expenditures.

We are in the process of establishing a list of projects that
will meet this criteria and would like to submit it to the
Board at an early date for consideration. In the meantime,
if you have any ideas or suggestions that you feel should be
included on this list, please contact me at your earliest
convenience.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development would like an
indication from us about the use of these funds before
February 20.
