Not The Battery in Atlanta which is a mixed-use development as part of the Braves new stadium.
Taxable property values in the area have risen from $5 million to $736 million during the past decade.
$38 million in tax revenue generated for the county/city/state.
The development has attracted major business ventures such as Papa John’s global HQ relocating to be in the development.
You are against that type of economic development/impact?
