City moves to create a community development department
Mayor Robert L. Rock shifts toward a unified city community development office appointing Dennis Matthews as interim director. The plan aims to replace independent redevelopment with a department under the mayor, increasing local control over federally funded programs and paving the way for social revenue sharing by 1974. Anderson could gain about 841000 from Better Communities Act funds in addition to existing revenue shares.
