Description

In this special edition of the Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Greg Bluestein, Patricia Murphy, Bill Nigut and Riley Bunch sit down with Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens to discuss the continued controversy over the proposed Atlanta Public Safety Training Center.

Hear why Mayor Dickens opposes an effort by a city council member to bypass an ongoing petition effort and place the public safety training center directly on the ballot.

The mayor also shares his thoughts on a variety of topics from the city’s process for verifying petition signatures to the sweeping indictment of dozens of training center opponents charged with violating the state’s anti-racketeering act.
