The Atlanta BeltLine was born from the grassroots efforts of community members, and it is vital that public participation continues to play a significant role in building and defining the Atlanta BeltLine.
These efforts have produced important findings from comprehensive community research in 2018, as well as over 6,000 questionnaires as part of the community expectations and evaluations for the project and suggested improvements.
Aside from meetings, the ABI team also participated in around 60 networking events, including pop-ups, coffees with the CEO, neighborhood and business organizations, and various tours.
Armed with the information given by the community, Atlanta BeltLine, Inc. plans to continue to address community concerns and suggestions while building on the project's proven successes.
