Atlanta Consolidated Street Railway Franchises Terms Proposed
City committee outlines terms for the Atlanta Consolidated Street Railway to construct and operate lines on Mitchell street and adjacent routes with limited tracks and a fifty year span. It sets a rental schedule for crossing the Mitchell street viaduct, requires withdrawals of certain appeals, and preserves city oversight on transfers fares and line choices.
Consent and Authority For Sale Involving Atlanta Rail
The consent and authority for sale is granted on condition that the Company dismiss its exceptions pending in the supreme court. The Fulton superior court refused an injunction sought by the company against the Atlanta Railway Company and the City of Atlanta. The case involves condemnation of using tracks of the Atlanta Consolidated Street Railway on Mitchell Street from Broad to Madison avenues and the City granted authority to construct an independent double-track system on Mitchell Street between the named portions.
