House Study Committee on Five Points MARTA Station Permit Issuance; create

HR 947 creates a temporary House study committee to investigate delays in city permits for the Five Points MARTA station rehabilitation project. The committee, composed of five House members appointed by the Speaker, will examine why the City of Atlanta withheld permits needed to address structural safety issues and complete the project. This resolution does not change laws or allocate funds - it solely directs the committee to study the permit delays and report findings by December 1, 2025. The committee’s work focuses on a specific infrastructure project receiving state transit funds, affecting MARTA operations and regional event readiness.
