@PatrickQuinnTV@ATLNewsFirst Middle ground/concessions? There were already like 40 conditions attached to the rezoning.
Vote down a rezoning based on NIMBY BS and it would end up in court, with the developer getting a rezoning anyways, carte blanche - with all conditions thrown out the door.
@mwgarbett What about & who declined? Awful broad brush to paint them all that way. There are good ones & bad ones, just like any other workplace.
Also of note, they cut the commission's recommendation by ~$30k. I'd have rather them kept the whole thing & went officially FT.
@ThreadATL Every member of the Transportation Committee and @atlcouncil should sign onto this when it gets to them. @ATLDOT should be ashamed!
It's pretty sad when even GDOT seems to be installing more new ped safety infrastructure than ATLDOT.
@jasonesteves You mean the state is finally actually having PSC elections (and legal ones)? About time
You can tell from our recent @GeorgiaPower & @atlantagaslight bills they they haven't had any for awhile, and the Commissioners currently there are squarely in utility companies' pockets!
@mooreforatlanta There isn't a quorum of a board, bc most of them voluntarily resigned (not that they were overseeing anyways). Once the nominating entities submit & have new members confirmed, they will appoint a new IG (who hopefully knows & complies w/ state law). Can't just not have an IG...
@R_A_Belcher@ajc And this doesn't even count all the canceled projects from the last bonds/TSPLOST bc the Reed admin overpromised just to get votes, and instead of using the interest to backfill, built daddy Blank a bridge that's closed during events.
Keisha and Andre basically rinsed/repeated
@nanconnolly@R_A_Belcher@ajc Atlanta is already under a ADA consent decree by DOJ. That being said, they've done almost nothing, and we will see how much longer the ADA actually lasts under the orange man.
How the hell is it 2024, yet we have traffic signals that turn red when no one is queued in the light(s) that got the green?!?
Do better, transportation/traffic engineers...
@civicatlanta Did you go into how he is a convicted felon cocaine trafficker and was shuffled between City departments during when Kasim Reed was mayor for sexual harassment? (and also has some weird obsession with Mary Norwood)
BREAKING: Elleven45 Lounge will be permanently shut down after a Fulton County judge ruled it a public nuisance.
2 people were killed there in May during a deadly shooting.
Judge ruled the owner, Djibril Dafe, also cannot reopen another business on the same site.
@ATLNewsFirst
@HowEPhil Five or six times now? But a majority of that money has went to the federally-mandated funding of new/rehabbed sewer pipes and sewer/stormwater infrastructure projects in the federal consent decree, not water supply lines.
