City’s Beltline debt to Atlanta school district grows

The city of Atlanta has missed another payment to Atlanta Public Schools in connection with the Beltline project, according to school district officials.

Under the agreement that helped fund the popular greenspace project, the school district was due to be paid $6.75 million Thursday and another $6.75 million last January. To date, neither payment has been received, according to school district officials.

School and city leaders have been at odds since early 2013 over the agreement that created the Beltline tax allocation district, or TAD, which helps fund the project.
