NE Round 2 We encourage neighbors to get engaged. The city is making decisions regarding which streets it will spend the $540 million raised through T-Splost and the Renew Atlanta Grant.
Please attend as many of the round 2 meetings that you are able.
NOTE TO OUR COMMUNITY: The city council has received its report. RDA complete streets has already been fully funded through the Flats at Westview, Cascade Road Phase 2 (B.E. Mays to RDA) is listed as design only, Langhorn Street is not funded, Beecher complete repaving has been funded, the Westview Cemetery/West Lake Trail is listed as design only and the Lionel Hampton connection to the Beltline will be left unfunded. There will be plenty to advocate around and we will begin the how’s of that discussion at the March WCO Meeting. More information

TSPLOST BACKGROUND: The Renew Atlanta/TSPLOST programs, launched in 2015 and 2016, were created to help address more than $1 billion in infrastructure backlog facing the City. Though the programs have made much progress to date delivering key projects across Atlanta, we face significant challenges as we move forward to complete the full initial program scope. Moreover, the cost to deliver the full scope of the initial program considerably exceeds the funding available from the Renew Atlanta Bond and anticipated TSPLOST revenues.
Thus, we are working diligently to prioritize and re-baseline the initial program lists to deliver the greatest impact to Atlanta’s above-ground infrastructure and transportation network with the available funds. Through this re-baselining effort, we are dedicated to engaging all stakeholders to help inform the process in a transparent and meaningful way.
As such, we would greatly appreciate your participation during our public engagement sessions listed below.
