Another public input session on south Fulton's transportation needs will be Tuesday at the Southwest Library. It starts at 6:30 p.m. at 3665 Cascade Road and will be the the second-to-last meeting before the July 31 transportation sales tax referendum.

If approved, the tax is expected to raise $6.14 billion over 10 years for a list of projects already drawn up, as well as another $1 billion for local governments. Unincorporated south Fulton is expected to get about $2.9 million per year, and the county wants feedback on a project list.
