Alderman Pierce Misses Move to Reconsider Franchises
The Aldermanic board failed to reopen votes on the Peters street franchise and the Boulevard extension grant of the Atlanta Rapid Transit Company. Mayor Mims is expected to veto both long term forty eight year agreements, while enough council members may override. The Peters street plan includes double tracks, viaduct rights, and cross-rail exclusivity with shared tracks allowed under specific terms.
