News Legislators rally support for TAD funding fixes
Posted by Thomas Wheatley @thomaswheatley on Thu, Feb 14, 2008 at 6:00 PM
A couple of sources inside the Capitol today said work is underway in both chambers on a constitutional amendment aimed at reworking TAD funding. It's a bipartisan effort for the most part, but again, that all hinges on what the bill ultimately states. Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle and Sen. Dan Weber of Dunwoody lead the charge in the Senate. Rep. Stacey Abrams of Atlanta is doing the same in the House. The General Assembly is out on Monday -- damn you, loafers! -- and one source says bond lawyers still need some time to "digest the Supreme Court's ruling." Look for the proposal to pop up on Tuesday or Wednesday.
