That's a decision.

It's a beautiful day, Atlanta. Get outside!

@letspropelatl.bsky.social please bring @bikelaneuprising.bsky.social to Atlanta for an event!

This behind closed door decision, by a committee, has caused Atlanta voters to lose faith in leaders and risk the approval of future transportation referendums. Next year Atlanta will ask voters to approve another TSPLOST. Unless transparency improves, I do not see that referendum being approved.

NCAA needs to put sanctions on UGA until they can get their football player's under control. Its a liability to the safety of others.

Everyone is chasing The Battery illusion.

The no breaks thing is BS and a violation.

I don't think vocational training in HS is bad.

Just waiting for Emory to complete the Emory PATH network along Clifton Rd.

It would have cost taxpayers far less to just follow the resolution approved by City Council.

It really needs to be integrated into the Breeze system and allow for free transfers and daily/monthly users to tap their cards.

How much of those disused or underused property is owned by non-profits? I'm sure if they had to pay property taxes on those parcels, they would be more likely to develop or sell them for development.
