Beltline study groups to start up once again
January 7, 2008 at 10:50 am by Thomas Wheatley in NewsThe Beltline study groups have a special place in my heart. They were the first community events I reported here at CL, and are true showings of not only people who care about their communities, but planners who have been working diligently with few resources to make a massive project — even if it is 25 years into the future — a reality. These events are to transit wonks what gun shows are to suburban commandos.
So it is with a skipped beat in my heart that I’m proud to announce the Beltline study groups will start another round of public workshops, the first of which is set for this Thursday, Jan. 10, 6:30 p.m., at the ARC Building on the Zoo Atlanta grounds. Park off Cherokee Avenue near the southern end of the lot, enter through the back gate — say hello to the security guard, she’s a gem — and follow the trail to the building.
It will be an open house meeting, meaning that people can come and go, review the materials, and chat with some of the Southeast section’s project planners.
Other dates follow after the jump. We’ll post them a couple of days ahead of the other meetings as well to remind you.

Maybe you should nominate Beltline study groups for your damn Lust List.
