Atlanta proposes abandoning unpaved Truitt Street SW

An ordinance referred to Atlanta’s Transportation Committee proposes abandoning Truitt Street SW as public right-of-way. The city describes it as an unpaved paper street beside properties on White Oak Avenue SW, rather than an open street proposed for closure.

The measure would preserve existing public and private utility easements for operating, maintaining or replacing facilities. Council referred the ordinance Sept. 21; its Sept. 30 agenda listing does not establish that the right-of-way has been abandoned.
