In an effort
to augment ongoing outreach efforts, the Atlanta Regional Commission
recently released the results of the first in a series of regional issues
polls to better gauge the pulse of the region's citizens.
The results
reflected positively on Atlanta's quality of life, though those responding
support more active, regional efforts to ensure continued and improved
regional livability.
ARC will
continue to poll the region on focused issues like expansion of mass
transit, financing mechanisms for better growth management and water
protection strategies, and will continue to explore citizen acceptance
of regional priorities as a guide for local decision-making.
For complete
results of ARC's regional issues poll, phone Mike Carnathan at 404-463-3101,
