City Budget

As a city council member, she voted to deny converting part of the Radisson Hotel at South Marietta Parkway and Interstate 75 into low-cost senior apartments for veterans.

As a city council member, she said that the city needs apartments as a housing option but whether they should be built depends on several factors, including numbers.

As a city council member, she said, "I think apartments are a good idea. I would have liked to see 200 \[in the Cobb Parkway development\]. I think 300 might to be too many. But I'm OK. I can live with 300. Would I have said yes to 300 closer to the Square? No. It's all going to come down to where, what they're going to look like, how many?"
