Fun fact: Atlanta already has some of the highest water bills in the country because we spent something like $4 billion over the last decade stopping the combined sewer from overflowing (to comply with a consent decree). And that's just for sewer; it doesn't even include any money for fixing the supply side of the piping!

But we found $230 million to change the look of Five Points. Cause that seems important for some reason.
