SCLC #330 — Detroit UCS summer-program responsibility motion, 9 Dec 1971

Minutes of a United Community Services of Metropolitan Detroit Detroit Division meeting on December 9, 1971 record a procedural response to staff criticism of the previous summer-grant system. The minutes list Rosa Parks among those “PRESENT”, but do not attribute a speech, motion, individual vote, or summer-program management to her.

• Underlined ACTION: “IT WAS MOVED AND SUPPORTED THAT THE DETROIT PLANNING DIVISION ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUMMER PROGRAMS, AND THAT THE CHAIRMAN APPOINT A SUMMER COMMITTEE TO DEVELOP SUMMER PROGRAM APPROACHES.”
• Record does not provide a vote tally, a separately worded declaration that the motion carried, the committee’s membership, or evidence that 1972 funding arrangements were implemented on these terms.
• Staff presented five alternatives (linked to #326); discussion ≠ selection of one alternative or full ten-area system adoption.
• Approximately $330,000 mentioned for prior summer program — reported figure in minutes, not audited payout.
• Distinct from #326 staff alternatives (Nov 8), #327 funding inventory, #328 two-contracts briefing, #329 working-paper motion, and 1972 tracks.
• Roster presence ≠ speaker/mover/voter; custody in Parks Papers ≠ role.
