Take some of the City owned properties that are not collecting property tax and convert them in to transitional house for the needy in our community. They would pay rent generating tax income for otherwise dead properties. Participants would be given resources to maintain a quality of life Build self esteem, and become productive members of our community. A hand up not a hand out.

I am an avid dog lover and was picking my son up from his grandmother's house in Lithonia, GA. I had taken my mini poodle with me and wanted a safe place for her to go potty. I located one of the nearby dog parks and saw several dogs with their owners. I liked the set up and felt that it would be a very good idea to bring that to Americus, especially with the visitors we have that may bring (or want to bring) their pets.
