What is the Peachtree Corridor Partnership?
Formed in June at the request of Mayor Shirley Franklin, the Peachtree Corridor Partnership is a collaboration among the Atlanta Development Authority, the Atlanta Committee for Progress and the three community improvement districts operating along the Peachtree Corridor – Central Atlanta Progress/Downtown; Midtown Alliance; and the Buckhead Community Improvement District. The Partnership was formed to work with relevant property owners and neighborhood groups, members of Atlanta City Council and other interested parties to determine how to best implement the recommendations of the Peachtree Corridor Task Force, which were unveiled by Mayor Franklin in March 2007. In working with these key groups and a team of expert consultants, the Partnership has developed a plan for how the vision can begin being funded and implemented.
