Correction re: StandUp DeKalb on FAA proposal to lower flight ceilings

State Rep. Mike Jacobs on DeKalb budget
February 28, 2010: Kudos to the Commissioners: In case you missed it, the DeKalb County Commission axed the CEO's proposal for a property tax hike in the county budget they passed on Tuesday, February 23. The budget was adopted by a unanimous 7-0 vote.

StandUp DeKalb on FAA proposal to lower flight ceilings
From StandUp DeKalb, Inc., February 25, 2010 re. FAA Presentation on Lowered Flightpaths for PDK & Hartsfield : Dear Friends and Neighbors, This is a bit of a departure from our previous emails, but this is an issue that impacts all of us in DeKalb. The FAA is proposing to lower the flightpath altitudes for Hartsfield flights departing in our direction. This lowered altitude will in turn depress and compress the flight envelope for flights in and out of Peachtree DeKalb airport.
