RG 33 Redevelopment Commission (1945-56)
History
The Baltimore Redevelopment Commission's functions were to
identify slum areas, negotiate with the federal government for funds,
select private builders, relocate displaced tenants, demolish existing
structures, restructure streets and utilities, and assist private
builders to acquire sites. As originally constituted, the commission
consisted of five members appointed by the mayor and confirmed by the
city council; membership was increased to seven in 1955. The
following year the commission was abolished and its duties assumed by
the Baltimore Urban Renewal and Housing Agency (see RG 48).
Records Summary
The commission records held by the archives are administrative
in nature. Included are minutes, reports, correspondence, and
agreements. All aspects of the commission's work are treated in the
materials, although the level of detail varies.
