Douglas County residents fed up with illegal dumping


Long-time residents on Britt Road are sounding the alarm as their quiet street is transformed into a makeshift junkyard. From abandoned boats to massive piles of tires, the community feels “violated” by the persistent eyesores. While local landfills charge between $5 and $15 to dispose of tires properly, many are opting to dump them illegally, prompting calls for stricter felony charges similar to recent crackdowns in DeKalb County.

Vigil scheduled for homeless man killed one year ago in Atlanta


One year after the death of Cornelius Taylor, family members and community advocates are gathering to remember his life and renew calls for changes in how homelessness is addressed in Atlanta.

What we know:

Taylor, 49, was killed while crews were clearing a homeless encampment near Ebenezer Baptist Church and The King Center. His death sparked outrage among housing advocates and renewed scrutiny of encampment evictions across the city.

Later this evening, Taylor’s family and supporters are scheduled to hold a candlelight vigil and wreath laying at the site where he died. The event is set to begin at 6 p.m. and is open to the public.

Organizers say the vigil will also mark the start of a week of action aimed at pushing for a housing-first approach to homelessness and an end to encampment clearings, which they argue place vulnerable people at further risk.
