The staff has listed about 80 properties in which needed improvements have been pointed out to the owner. Upon request by owners, the staff suggests reliable contractors, or if money is needed, the staff will give financial aid for those in the project area who are el aible. b. Re.ocation LaSalle, R -57. To date,.there are 3 families RELOCATION, who have moved from the project area into public housing. There LASALLE, R -57 are about 8 other families whose applications are being pro- cessed by the Housing Authority. The staff is striving to get more priva a housing for rental or sale. There are about 15 families w o state they are not willing to accept the purchase price offered for acquisition of their properties. Many of these families to be relocated may be eligible to receive the relocation adjustment payment of up to $500 per family or elderly individual. Certain requirements are necessary for eligibility, such -as (1) any individual over age 62, (2) any family who demonstrates that 20•% of his income is not enough for his family to meet rentals established on the Schedule of Average Annual Gross Rentals for Standard Housing in South Bend, Form H -614. It appears that 11 of the 15 families so far are eligible for the relocation adjustment payment. c. Meetings. The Mayor's Advisory Committee on Community MEETINGS Improvement will probably meet in about 2 weeks. Th Community Development Roundtable has programmed a Citizens Congress For Tomorrow Conference, to be held at the University of Notre Dame on November 16, 1966. This is to be an all day meeting with luncheon, and cost is about $4.00 per Person. The objective is to make the entire community aware of the variou3 public and private programs being carried out. Eleven eon urrent sessions are scheduled and Mr. Chong will serve on the session entitled "Better Living Accommodations". Tha South Bend Human Relations and Fair Practices Com -_ mittee has scheduled a White House Conference on Housing for November 2?, 1966, but the Redevelopment Department has received no officia information or invitation as yet. Department Relocation expected, session. very happy property w: LaSalle Park District Council met with the Redevelopment on Thursday evening, September 29, 1966, in the and Rehabilitation Office. About 20 people were rut around 30 attended. This meeting was a good working 7r. Leo Newman made an offer stating that he would be to come up with $200 to aid.for appraisal of anyone's to felt the price offer was too low. No one accepted -5 the offer. One observer stated there was a lack of communication between the Redevelopment Department and the residents, but could offer no s ggestions. This person admitted that he did not know enough abo t the urban renewal program to make suggestions. Mr. Chong expects to have a follow up meeting within a couple weeks or so. Mr. Drake: suggested that the Redevelopment staff explain publicly at the next:meeting. that no one has been offered more money for their property -than the original offer. Mr. Drake has heard this stated and the rumor should be stopped if it is not true. The idea might have originated over a misunderstanding when the Redevelopment Staff offered to pay the abstract- costs, which is permissible, but the price offer has never been increased on any property from the original offer. The next special meeting of -the Redevelopment Commission will be at 3:00 p. m., October 20, 1966, in.the office of the Redevelopment Department. 7.
