The circle is one of the strongest symbols of unity, this logo builds upon that, with various colors representing elements of our community. Blue and green connote the resilient nature of water and our abundant tree canopy. Purple, traditionally a color of nobility, considers the legacy of families deeply-rooted in Cascade Heights. Finally, the earthy orange suggests bricks and Georgia red clay, symbolizing a solid foundation for growth and development. The mark’s empty center provides space for growth and expressions of personality.

The district is designed to retain property in the City of Atlanta that has a current or former industrial use. The adoption of the district is consistent with the goals set forth in the 2016 Comprehensive Development Plan. Since adoption, however, it has been found that the 30% floor area industrial requirement prevents the district from being used. Given the current floor plate of industrial uses and the permitted principal uses that are allowed by the district the zoning classification is not being utilized. It is essential to sustain industrial areas because they play a significant role in the City’s economy and supports the need of an urban environment.

  • Progress Update December 2020
    DECEMBER 2020 n PROGRESS UPDATE TABLE OF CONTENTS LETTER FROM THE MAYOR 1 Dear Neighbors, In June of 2019, we launched the One Atlanta: Housing Affordability Action Plan – Letter from the Mayor Atlanta’s first comprehensive, multi-agency housing strategy. As I stated in that plan, my priority as Mayor is ensuring that Atlanta is affordable for all who desire to call our 2 city home, especially long-time residents. Leading City Agencies Since we launched our plan, the world has changed. Atlanta has been struck by a pandemic that has taken the lives of hundreds of Atlantans and caused an economic 3 crisis. Tragic local and national events have also laid bare the harsh realities of the racial inequities we face as a city and a nation. Black and brown communities have COVID-19 Response Efforts been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19, economic insecurity, and housing instability – issues linked in ways we had not previously considered. 4 The events of 2020 have only heightened our sense of urgency to continue to move At a Glance toward the One Atlanta vision – a city that is more affordable, resilient, and equitable. That is why the 45 actions outlined in the One Atlanta: Housing Affordability Action 6 Plan are so important and why we remain committed to achieving our goals. Create or preserve 20,000 affordable homes In just the second year of our six-year action plan, we have launched more than 65% of the actions in the plan. Since January of 2018, the City and its agencies have 10 committed and invested over $497 million in the creation and preservation of 6,007 affordable homes.
