Particularly for the Public Service Commission which approves what costs Georgia Power can transfer to its customers.

"T
he current commissioners know you’re not paying attention – that’s why they’re shifting the cost of Georgia’s rapidly growing data centers onto YOUR bill.
While you’re stuck paying $0.21 per kWh for electricity, data centers are only paying $0.05.  That’s just not fair.
The PSC has SIGNIFICANT regulatory authority and could protect residential customers like me and you, but they’re simply not doing it.  
I presented a plan to the PSC that meets all generation and reliability needs, while lowering energy costs.  You can see clips of my testimony right here: 
[He's quietly competent while eviscerating Georgia Power's greedy, planet-burner of a plan.- JB]

​
Please vote TODAY for Peter Hubbard for Public Service Commission.
It’s time we had someone on the Commission fighting for residential customers throughout GA.

Voting should only take 5 minutes.

Thank you
Peter Hubbard for PSC – Statewide

Urban Plan Academy for Community Leaders

6/9/2025

 
Picture
Urban Plan Academy for Community Leaders is a hands-on, one-day workshop that builds participants’ understanding of the fundamental forces shaping real estate development in their communities. The course focuses on the trade-offs, challenges, and risks associated with the entitlement and negotiation processes related to land use. 

Through project-based learning, participants assume roles in a fictional city-led redevelopment project, working as part of a development team, neighborhood coalition, or public agency. The experience helps sharpen real-world skills in collaboration, compromise, and strategic thinking, all while illuminating the complex dynamics that influence what gets built and why. 

Event Details 
 Date: Saturday, June 28, 2025 
 Time: 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM 
 Location: Roosevelt Hall, Clark Atlanta University 

Atlanta thrives when its communities are informed, engaged, and empowered.

Join us to gain the tools you need to drive meaningful, equitable development in your neighborhood.

Note: There are 25 seats available for this course. Confirmed attendees will receive a detailed follow-up email before the event.

Update on The house located at 1809 DeFoor Ave

6/9/2025

 
​Recap;
1809 Defoor Avenue NW was heard by the In-Rem Review Board on July 25, 2024. The owner was given 30-days to comply the structure and no attempts were made; as a result, the property was awarded to a City Demolition Contractor on Jan 9, 2025.
Neighbor Maria Schiffgens provides this update;

The project has been awarded to a City demolition contractor and the contractor has received permits. The contractor will start the abatement for Asbestos this week and shortly after began demolition. Please allow at 45-days from today for this project to be fully completed.

Thanks,
