engineer.
Resolved, further, ThatXhe munici
palities of Oakland City, Battle Hill,
Edgewood and Kirkwood are naturally
and logically a'part of the city of At

with the municipality of Atlanta under
ono general charter, upon terms fair
alike to such municipalities and to
the city of Atlanta.

of consolidating the municipalities of

upon equitable terms to those munic
ipalities, as well aa to the city of At
lanta, be submitted to the residents
thereof, and If there Is a general de
sire on the part of citizens of. East
Point and Decatur, expressed through
their constituted authorities, to com
bine with and become a part of Greater
Atlanta, that the limits of this city
should also be extended so as to cm
brace those municipalities as well ai
the Intervening territory, provided
satisfactory terms of such consolida
tion can be agreed upon by the au
thorities thereof and this committee.
Resolved, further. That for the pur
pose of taking up this entire question,
as well as the rearrangement of the
wards of the extended city of Atlanta,

general committee, of which the chair
man of this meeting, the mayor pro
tom., city attorney and city engineer,
shall be members, be appointed by the
chairman, such sub-committee to have
authority to consider all questions per
taining to the extension of the corpo
rate limits of Atlanta, according to the
general plan herein outlined, as well
as all questions pertaining, to the re
arrangement of the wards of the city
when so extended, to hear from and
negotiate with representatives of the
different municipalities, as well as
outlying territory, and after full con
sideration of all such questions It shall
report back to this general committee,
with such recomn^ndatlons as it may
deem proper, looking to such exten
sion, the terms upon which the various
surrounding municipalities can be
combined with the city of Atlanta, the
proceedings necessary to be taken for
that purpose, and the plana for rear
ranging the wards of the enlarged
city.
Resolved, further, That It Is tho sense
of this commltteo that the necessary

ported back, so that this general com
mittee may make Its report to the city
