Background

On September 8th 2021 the Atlanta City Council approved a plan to build an 85-acre "public safety training center" (otherwise called "Cop City") at the historical old Prison Farm site in unincorporated DeKalb County in southeast Atlanta. [1] The project will cost approximately 90 million dollars with 30 million dollars coming from tax payers and the other 60 million being funded by the Atlanta Police foundation (APF.) The land will be leased to the APF for 10 dollars a year.
