VISITORS: JAMES RUTLEDGE read the following for consideration of the Council: "The N.A.A.C.P. humbly requests that the City Council will, at its own convenience, through such communication as it deems necessary, to determine the following items. 1) Will or can the Pasco Housing Authority make adjustments in the case:bf hardship - burdened tenants who do not have the means to pay prevailing rent rates? 2) Will the Pasco Housing Authority'be given other alternatives in cases where present guidelines for evictions are warranted for non- payment of prevailing rental rates. We are primarily concerned with welfare recipients - whose rent grants have been cut below what is needed to pay rent rates now in effect, or aged persons who might have undergone the same cuts. Being mindful of the busy schedule of both the council and the Pasco Housing, -Authority, we believe a letter of information will suffice."
