Dates:
1963-1967
Physical Description:
0.2 cu. ft. of textual materials

Scope and Content Note:

Sub-series reflects the office's function, which was to prepare a comprehensive statewide development plan. A major component of the plan was the formulation of functional policies on social and economic development, urbanization, natural resources, transportation, and public facilities. Records include budget materials, policy papers, draft legislation, correspondence, and press releases. The author labeled folders containing these records "Urban Renewal Administration" and that designation has been preserved. This reflects the office's involvement in the implementation of the federal Urban Planning Assistance program, which was created by Section 701 of the federal Housing Act of 1954. Municipalities were required to undertake comprehensive urban planning in order to be eligible for federal urban renewal assistance.
