![["The document is a letter written by Neal A. McCaleb to Senator Henry Bellmon regarding the rules for the administration of the \"Indian Set Aside\" for community development block grants. McCaleb believes that the priorities set by the Department of Housing and Urban Development are too restrictive and not in line with the desires of tribal leaders in Oklahoma. He has collected responses from tribal leaders expressing the need for more flexibility in selecting project priorities. McCaleb urges Senator Bellmon to transmit this information to the appropriate persons in the Department of Housing and Urban Development for consideration in the preparation of the rules. The document also includes responses from tribal leaders outlining their high-priority needs for projects such as street improvements, water systems, housing rehabilitation, and more."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_003_2_33_5_0015.jpg "Empowering Tribal Leadership: Community Development Block Grants")
