    correct me if I’m wrong, but even though the land itself is owned by the city, it’s in unincorporated land, meaning the neighbors to it don’t get to have a voice on the city council to represent them?

    I’m not sure what use dekalb county would be here, though.

      Unfortunately, all that matters is that the city owns the land, and they can do what they want with it. Since Atlanta owns the land, it’s the Atlanta City Council that decides what to do with it.

      As for DeKalb, it’s in DeKalb county and DeKalb county is the one that’s issued the building permits for it.
