The City of Atlanta is publicly launching Phase 2 of Fix-It Atlanta with ‘Operation Clean Sweep’ (OCS) during the week of September 28, 2020. The renewed initiative is aimed at improving the quality of life for Atlanta residents and visitors through proactive clean-up and beautification efforts across the City. The Department of Public Works (DPW), the Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), Atlanta Department of Transportation (ADOT) and ATL311 have combined resources to better maintain and enhance the City’s public spaces while increasing responsiveness to areas in need of heightened attention. We look forward to helping you make this effort a success by contacting the City to report these issues and to request services in your neighborhood or community.

To protect the health and safety of our staff and customers, and to help mitigate the impact of COVID-19, the Atlanta Police Department will not be dispatched to the scene of non-injury automobile accidents.

The Use of Force Advisory Council was launched on June 10, 2020 by Mayor Bottoms with the goal of evaluating Atlanta Police Departments’ Use of Force procedures and developing recommendations on areas for improvement. The Mayor has directed the group to develop two outputs: 1)14-day report on initial findings and 2) a more comprehensive 45-day report. The City of Atlanta wants to hear feedback from the community on the focus areas and preliminary recommendations developed by the Mayor’s Use of Force Advisory Council. This survey is being conducted on behalf of the Use of Force Advisory Council, created by Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, to collect input from the community on the efforts led thus far on use of force by the Atlanta Police Department (APD). The Advisory Council is comprised of Atlantans who are  passionate and have, expertise and, experience regarding criminal justice reform and policing. If you have any questions about this survey please contact useofforce@atlantaga.gov. The survey will remain open until Wednesday, July 29, 2020. Your participation is greatly appreciated. To take the survey, click here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/67QXW7Z

Due to a reduced workforce caused by the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Department of Public Works is experiencing delays in Solid Waste Services (SWS), especially in yard trimming and recycling collections. Yard trimming collection WILL NOT be collected at this time. Other services, such as recycling, will be delayed but WILL BE collected. While delays are occurring, SWS will continue efforts to collect these items as soon as possible.
