WARD C T-SPLOST PROJECTS
- 32 Projects located within Ward C
- Approximately 8.6 million dollars budgets for resurfacing and safety enhancements
- Approximately 5 million dollars budgeted for sidewalks and pedestrian/bike improvements
On the agenda for the meeting was an update on the status of Ward C’s TSPLOST projects and short-term rental legislature. An extensive breakdown on the update of TSPLOST projects was even presented by the director of East Point Public Works, Jeffrey Reeves.
Councilmember Saucier has personally championed the "Make Some Noise To Stop The Noise" campaign. She strongly urged all in attendance to remain diligent about reporting noise complaints to Hartsfield-Jackson. Councilmember Saucier went onto discuss the revamp of the city’s Access East Point app for reporting issues to the city, with a particular emphasis on how to report noise pollution.
Councilmember Cook broached the subject of short-term rentals in the city, stating that a more in-depth discussion will take place at an upcoming town hall. East Point hosted a town hall earlier this year to gather feedback from residents before passing legislature on what Cook referred to as a ‘beast’ of a topic.
