Dear Mr. Mayor:

Your concern to do everything you can to push forward housing
construction in Atlanta is well known to us and at all of the
meetings of this committee we review the situation.

At last week's meeting there was considerable discussion about
the reluctance, or refusal, of the HUD people to approve some
suggested sites for public and other low cost housing. This leads
naturally to an increased search for sites that might be more readily
acceptable.

It was brought to our attention that one of the most pressing
needs is a complete and up to date listing of all vacant land in the
city that is, or could easily be, zoned for low or moderate income
housing. We are informed that the City Planning Department is in
the process of this listing. Is there any way in which their work
could be speeded up? Is there any way in which we could help?



Sincerely yours,

f
