Protecting homeownership for Atlantans as the city grows
Amanda Rhein, Executive Director of The Atlanta Land Trust, penned an Op Ed piece in the Atlanta Journal Constitution on how Atlanta can remain an inclusive city that welcomes newcomers while protecting legacy residents. Rhein writes, “Atlanta is the best version of itself when we can open the door to newcomers while ensuring that those who are already here don’t have it slammed in their faces.” She goes on to share how the work Atlanta Land Trust is undertaking can keep housing permanently affordable and ensure “a livable, equitable and economically viable city where historically marginalized populations and communities of color can access and benefit from opportunities and prosper.”
