roadway ,plan and that each year's revisions which are made shall be
accumulated and entered on the map and the revised map shall be design-
a-ted. "M R lJ! - 1956 and "M R 1" -, 1957 ete. Certified approved copies

ing Federal' aid for the rehabilita~ion of areas as well a3 their

great deal larger than those under the 19h9 program t'lhich were
restricted to clearance, and Federal aid has become available for
providing the inlprovedpublic facilities needed for the upgrading
of such larger areas. 'rhus, whatever the city' 6 size or the extent

The Board wishes to emphasize the fact thQt it will be necessary to
establish a permanent planning department to participate in the prepar-
ation of a master plan and to maintain it under, changing conditions as
a continuing function. This will involve the permanent employment of
a competent, experience~ man to head this departm~nt and of other employe3s
to assist him. .
