We sure do LOVE to talk about GA's the #1 state to do biz, but if folks want to educate their kids, they've got better luck in MS. My piece explores this through the lens of APS's new Facilities Plan. https://t.co/patz8u0BPV #gapol #atlpol #Education #aps

Frederick Douglass High School has recently reported an impressive 7.33% increase in its graduation rate, rising from 82.1 to 89.4 percent. This increase is the most significant improvement in the district. Soon, you can catch this amazing news story on 11Alive, Fox 5, CBS

As a 3rd Nbound @MARTAtransit train passes me @ Arts Ctr, waiting on a Sbound train the favoritism, geographic dividing line & the city’s propensity 2 see dev only in one direction. I wish we had city leadership, trans, & econ dev that supported the whole city. #atlpol #atlanta

@andreforatlanta And for the love of all that is HOLY in #Atlanta, may we pls pay our city employees enough that they may 1) live here 2) not have to have a side hustle to survive & 3) not be using city funded resources for their personal use. #atlpol #gapol #atl

@andreforatlanta is this a part of the training APD receives at Cop City? If not, maybe can we have a discussion about how Cop City isn’t meaningfully helping anything. #atlpol #gapol

I’d like to brag on the machines @GaSecofState office chose. As I cast my ballot this evening, the lights went out @ the Rec Ctr & the machine didn’t even blink. My ballot cast successfully. #gapol #atlpol

Remember this? @CityofAtlanta Over a year since this announcement and all we’ve heard in the meantime is autonomous pods and no streetcar expansion to Eastside Beltline.

I love it when @MARTAtransit parks on the sidewalks/ the Beltline in front of their own stations. Will the autonomous shuttles help this? #Atlanta #transit #atltransportation

This is actually embarrassing for The Beltline, MARTA, and mayoral leadership for allowing this to happen

Hey @MARTAtransit it's been a month since I reported this bus stop being knocked down and it's still laying on the sidewalk today. This is at the northwest corner of the Parkway Drive and Highland Avenue intersection. Please fix it.

Montreal has installed curb-extensions or 'bump-outs' at intersections across the City to make pedestrian crossings safer while adding needed greenery to urban neighborhoods. Intersections with these treatments had a 25% lower rate of vehicle on pedestrian crashes. 📍Montreal🇨🇦

@andreforatlanta This is all to offer public comment. I think folks think that offering public comment is easy- probably in other spaces & w other ppl, it often is. But in Atlanta, you just never know. I personally take it as a GREAT compliment.

When ppl wonder why #Atlanta is the way it is, this is part of it. The pettiness & hubris gets in the way of actual good governance. This is @andreforatlanta Atlanta- all hubris, no substance, and pettiness abounds

Sorry- full title is the DCP NPU Director- this is also the woman whose office covered for her when she received texts in a mtg while she & the previous APAB President disenfranchised one of the members of APAB. Looks like nothing’s changed.

I’m standing currently outside the APAB mtg bc the DCP Director asked me to wait outside as the room was getting readied. That’s right, a mtg that’s open to the public & hasnt yet begun. Ms. Barbara Leath, a member is sitting in the room but I cannot. Make it make sense y’all.

Mayor @andreforatlanta says he wants to expand the Beltline TAD. Let me tell you why that’s a dumb idea. My latest on @peachpundit #atlanta #atlpol #gapol

TBH, I’d settle for MARTA cops who don’t hassle me & say there’s kiss n ride parking across the st when the pking spots aren’t labeled as such. A better usage of the pking lot on this side would be multifamily housing, but no- we have an empty pking lot. Poor land use. #Atlanta
