Atlanta Creating Development Plan for Thousands of Acres of Airport Property
Monday, June 29th, 2015
Atlanta plans to create a "development and action plan" for hundreds of acres it owns around the Atlanta airport and thousands of acres it owns in Dawson and Paulding counties.
The city owns about 500 acres around Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, about 10,000 acres in Dawson County north of Atlanta, and about 9,400 acres in Paulding County, west of Atlanta. In a June 24 request-for-proposal it says it hopes to identify "innovative opportunities to realize additional value" from the airport's real estate.
