A proposed city donation for improvements to Sidney Marcus Park is on Atlanta’s Finance/Executive Committee agenda for Oct. 14 at 1:30 p.m.—but the listed measure still does not say how much money would be provided.⁠[1]

Councilmember Alex Wan’s ordinance, 26-O-1537, would draw money from the District 6 carry-forward account and donate it to Morningside Community Foundation, specifically to support Friends of Sidney Marcus Park’s planned improvements. The proposed donation ceiling remains a placeholder rather than a dollar figure.⁠[1]

The agenda notes that the measure was held Sept. 30 at the sponsor’s request. Its return to the agenda provides another opportunity for consideration, not a guarantee of a vote or confirmation that money has been authorized or paid. The listing also leaves the scope of the planned park work unspecified.⁠[1]
