    Neighborhood Associations Are the Foundation of Atlanta's

    Neighborhood Associations are the foundation of Atlanta’s Neighborhood Planning System. The Mayor, the City Council and various City agencies rely on Neighborhood Associations for comments and suggestions concerning the City’s growth and development. The Directory contains a listing of more than 150 neighborhood organizations along with contact information, meeting times and meeting locations. In addition, the Directory provides a listing of neighborhood organizations within each NPU and Council District. The information contained in this publication is generated from updates received from the Neighborhood Planning Units (NPUs) and neighborhood organizations. We encourage your assistance in maintaining accurate records.

    Environmental Consequences

    General Planning Consultant Services Environmental Effects Report – BeltLine Corridor Northeast Zone 4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES 4.1 Wetlands/Waters of the U.S. and State Jurisdictional waters of the U.S. are defined by 33 CFR Part 328.3 (b) and are protected by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344), which is administered and enforced by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). This EER assessment used USGS topography maps, NWI maps, and county soil survey maps to identify jurisdictional waters of the U.S. that the proposed action would affect. Subsequent field investigations allowed for refinements to the assessments of jurisdictional waters. Wetland locations were determined using the 1987 USACE Wetlands Delineation Manual. The USACE manual’s multi-parameter approach requires positive evidence of three criteria: hydrophytic vegetation; hydric soils; and wetland hydrology. Jurisdictional wetlands exhibit evidence of all three of the above wetland parameters. Jurisdictional intermittent or perennial streams exhibit a definite channel and wrested vegetation, and show evidence of water flow at times other than major storm events. Ephemeral streams exhibit wrested vegetation and evidence of flow only during and immediately after storm events. In addition, ephemeral streams do not have hydric soils or base flow as in intermittent and perennial streams. Ephemeral streams are non- jurisdictional if they do not provide a significant nexus between two separate Waters of the U.S. Within the study area are eight perennial streams, three intermittent streams, two wetlands and one ephemeral stream. Figure 4-1, Figure 4-2, and Figure 4-3 identify the locations of wetlands, Waters of the U.S.

To see the resilience of all involved, from the youngsters and families to the volunteers and community members, is a testament to hard work and a common goal. Most importantly, it’s about our 5,000+ youth members. They play, they learn and they grow. For many, they do so in spite of challenging circumstances. Like all youngsters given the opportunity, they respond to a positive environment VISION and succeed. We want to promote upward mobility for our young participants. In 2018, we piloted a Youth Leadership Council in We envision the day when all kids regardless of economic, social or Clarkston. Through a mix of soccer training, work readiness programs and enrichment activities, 18 of the participants found part-time work.

Opening the second StationSoccer location on September 8th at West End MARTA was one of the high points of 2018. To our delight, the West End community voted with its feet and turned out in the hundreds to support the pro- gram. More than 140 young soccer enthusiasts enrolled on Day One! I give that a thumbs up. In addition, a classroom is on its way for West End.
