Dear Mayor Allen:

Enclosed for your information is a list of the Project Area
Committee for the Edgewood Neighborhood Development Program
Area, formerly designated the East Atlanta NDP Area by reso-
lution of the Board of Aldermen, dated December 2, 1968.

This Committee, elected by residents of the NDP Area, enthu-
siastically supports the Neighborhood Development Program
and have pledged their cooperation to utilize this Program
to improve the conditions of their area.

The Atlanta Housing Authority has leased a project office

in the heart of the area at 198 Hutchinson Street. Mr.
Curtis Parrish, the Project Manager, has established a good
rapport with the Committee and has been invited to speak at
many of the churches in the area. The Project Area Committee
has approved Adley Associates as planning consultants, and
they are presently preparing data on existing land use and
structural conditions.

The Housing Authority, in an effort to make the program more
responsive to the needs of the people, has pledged that the
Project Area Committee will participate in the formation and
execution of the plans for the area and that area residents
will be kept fully informed.

The Project Area Committee has been particularly pleased to
have been involved from the very beginning and to have a
voice in decisions affecting their area.

We are pleased with the attitude of the Committee and the
ees

progress to date in the Edgewood NDP Area.

Very truly yours,

Naward Gprcees Le cee

Howard Openshaw
Director of Redevelopment
