The document explains that the $52,200 figure cited in the article is misleading, and the actual development cost per unit is $26,600. It also defends the urban renewal costs and the fair market value paid for properties, emphasizing the benefits of urban renewal for the neighborhood. The document provides additional information and resources for further clarification."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/James%20R.%20Jones%20Collection/James%20R.%20Jones%20Correspondence%20Series,%201968-1986%20/CAC_CC_109_4_22_1_0000-District%20Office,%20Jones%20Clippings,%201973/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_109_4_22_34_0010_thumbnail.jpg "1972 Correspondence on Low-Income Housing Cost Discrepancies")
