Ft. Mac LRA meeting Wed. 1/24

Exciting news from Brian Hooker, the executive director of the Ft. Mac Local Redevelopment Authority. On Wednesday the 24th, planners will share progress on the Ft. Mac project, including 3D renderings. Financing for the plans should be finalized by late April 2018 with groundbreaking at the end of this year.

Because our communities will be the most directly affected, we strongly encourage our residents to attend the meeting if possible, hear the updates, and see the renderings. Brian is especially excited about the idea of a community run "grocery store" on the property and is looking for feedback and support on the idea.

The MILRA C.E.S meeting will be held on Wednesday, Jan. 24 at 5:30, Ft.McPherson, LRA Office, 1794 Walker Avenue.

With the City government effectively shut down tomorrow, and VICARS also closed, we encourage people to play it safe and stay home tomorrow. The first NPU-S meeting of 2018 will be February, Thursday 15th.

Stay warm!
