Where is Atlanta’s operating budget?
February 21, 2008 at 1:28 pm by Andisheh Nouraee in NewsThis writer briefly considered writing an Add It Up about the city of Atlanta’s operating budget today.
Then he realized the city of Atlanta doesn’t seem to have a copy of its budget on the website where it is supposed to be.
At a time when the city is facing huge budget cuts and accusations of gross mismanagement, the city’s failure to make the budget freely available to the public is unfortunate and disturbing.
Calls made by this writer to the city’s budget office have not yet been returned. Rest assured this writer will continue to refer to himself in the third person until he gets an answer.

Wait a minute, the City of Atlanta has had an honest to goodness operating budget before? And someone inside city hall was technically competent enough to convert it into a .pdf document and post it on a website? From the way this city is run, I just thought they made that shit up.
