PROPOSED FAIR HOUSING ORDINANCE HEARING Mr. Tom Black, Chairman of the Human Relations Commission, appeared before the Council to present the proposed Fair Housing Ordinance and to request a public hearing date for this ordinance. Mr. Black gave to the Council some of the history leading to the drafting of the ordinance. After the Human Relations Commission was established a committee was appointed to make a thorough investigation of the housing situation in the City of Austin and came up with the unanimous decision that some type of housing ordinance was definitively needed in Austin. The proposed ordinance is the result of that investigation and decision. At the same time the Human Relations Commission was drafting its ordinance, the Congress of the United States passed a Fair Housing Act. It appears the two are presenting a confusing situation. Mr. Black requested the Council to allow him to take the proposed ordinance before the Commission again for reviewing and possibly redrafting in view of the new Federal Law, and then have a public hearing at a later date. Councilman Long felt that a public hearing set for May 9th would give the Commission ample time for any changes they would like to make in the proposed ordinance. Councilman Janes felt that a revised ordinance might be in conflict with the Federal Law; that the original ordinance was drawn up before the Federal Law was passed and that a public hearing was not necessary. Councilman Long moved the Council wait for the Human Relations Commission's recommendation concerning the proposed Fair Housing Ordinance, accept the study material submitted by the Commission and set a public hearing at 10:30 A.M. on May 9, 1968.
