Very proud of my dad and the impact he’s made over his career. He bleeds purple and black!

Amid a thunderstorm of complaints, controversial developer John Dewberry addresses a delayed Midtown #Atlanta project now christened "The Midtowne" in this in-depth Urbanize ATL report. atlanta.urbanize.city/post/dewberry-…
12 EU diplomats joined @PauGuzATL, @Kenyattamitchel, & @AmirForATL in a roundtable discussion on @CityofAtlanta's work in subnational diplomacy and intergovernmental affairs. In the U.S, they have engaged with officials to learn more about the upcoming election in 2024.
Last night, it was a joy to host, along with my colleague @LilianaforATL, the 5th annual “Atlanta Celebrates Nowruz” at City Hall. Nowruz (“new day”) coincides with the spring equinox. Happy new year to all who celebrate!
HUGE news for Atlanta and Downtown: $157,645,161 in federal funds coming to match some local money to complete "The Stitch" Phase 1. Full team effort between @atlcouncil @andreforatlanta @SenatorWarnock @SenOssoff @RepNikema @USDOT and, especially, @downtownatlanta!

Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens: "In the past 6 years, nearly 50 new buildings have opened in the 1.2 square mile Midtown Improvement District, representing a combined $8.4B of investment on less than 1% of the City's land area." #AnnualMeeting2024
"GRO is raising money to launch a multiyear pilot program for roughly 250 kids across the state aged 15 to 21 starting in 2025." RT if you read about GRO's Baby Bonds pilot program in today's @axios Atlanta newsletter. axios.com/local/atlanta/…
Had a wonderful time talking advocacy and how City Council works (or doesn’t) with @gallowayschool 7th graders. Always good to be home.
Digging the new ATL UTD kit but I've never seen someone parade around with our City flag. A city seal on a flag does not a great flag make. While we have more important things to do, I'd love if we redesigned our flag so that folks would clamor to fly it. So much potential.
Hat tip to fmr ATL Planning Comm. Tim Keane, as he heads to Calgary, on his op-ed in @sciam "Creating the incredible amount and diversity of housing we desperately need is possible only when we examine how to design and build in existing neighborhoods and on existing streets."

Yesterday, it was a delight to welcome @paceacademy 6th/7th graders Downtown as part of their “mini-mester” studying civic engagement. They came prepared to talk about one of my favorite topics: participatory budgeting and trust in government.
IT'S ATLANTA @FIFAWorldCup has chosen #Atlanta to host EIGHT matches, including one of the semi-final matches in 2026! #WeAre26 #WeAreAtlanta

Great news! Happy to see steps towards safer pedestrian crossings.
As a piece of this puzzle, this week, I introduced legislation to require leading pedestrian intervals at all intersections where the technology is in place. Much of the Vision Zero work will need to redesign streets but small things that make a big difference can be done now.
I genuinely appreciate this. So often leaders promote big ideas & have little explanation for funding or process. The inching forward method maybe slower & less photo ops, but it remains a solid movement forward, for which I'm grateful! #atlpol #gapol

@AmirForATL Thanks for this! Having a few seconds to start crossing the street while cars are stopped is one of those little things that can mean a lot for pedestrian safety.
The Vision Zero Action Plan has been a coordinated effort including leadership from ATLDOT, Mayor @andreforatlanta, Councilmembers @AmirForATL, @ByronAmos, and @jasonsdozier, external partners and the Atlanta community. To read it, check out our website at atldot.atlantaga.gov/programs/visio…
@AmirForATL @JeffDelp The contractor has been notified of what will be necessary to receive an approved permit to continue work. Conditions for that permit include a lane shift plan to keep the bicycle lane open.
Loved being with my #gapol peeps in Phoenix at the @NewDEALLeaders annual Ideas Summit! With these partners, we are prepared for the work ahead.
Excited that at today's @atlcouncil meeting, we unanimously passed legislation allocating $6.5M to the first, one-mile phase of the @CityofAtlanta portion of the Chattahoochee RiverLands Trail. The trail will begin at the Standing Peachtree Greenspace, where 1/
