Urges Final Say-So

Last to be submitted but proms ising to bring most controversy to the new Council was a measure giving the Council final say« so on public housing projects. The resolution, similar to. one which died in committee in the previous Council, requires the Housing Authority of Indianapolis to submit each project to the Council for approval. ~ The action is an outgrowth of strong opposition voiced to the Housing Authority's plan to build more than 40 double houses on a

site ‘at Dawson St. and LeGrande

Ave,

Calls for Rezoning ~

Also submitted was a measure calling for rezoning of a 20-acre

a project known as The Meadows, The third measure is an annexlation prdposal for an East Side area along the east side of Are llington Ave. between 13th and 14th Sts.
