Atlanta's city government will scan and release copies of petitions against a proposed police and firefighter training center, even though the city still isn't verifying voter signatures or otherwise moving forward with the citywide referendum sought by “Stop Cop City” activists.
The Atlanta City Council voted 15-0 on Monday to direct the city clerk to scan petitions that referendum proponents say contain 116,000 signatures from voters, which would be twice the number required to call the vote under state law.
