Tucker Summit CID President Emory Morsberger recently wrote in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, highlighting the hard work and contributions of “Dreamers,” young immigrants who came to the U.S. as children and are pursuing a brighter future and showing gratitude for their contribution to the district’s economic impact.

“To me, the Dreamers are a special group of individuals who deserve our support and protection. It’s time we provide them with the same educational opportunities and instate tuition options that other Georgia students receive. We need their energy and curiosity to help build the future based on modern technologies and innovation.

We need them in Georgia.”

TSCID is working with the City of Tucker to make road and infrastructure improvements along Mountain Industrial Boulevard. The current projects include:

Mountain Industrial Boulevard Ramps at US 78
The scope of this project includes electrical plans for installing lighting on the “on and off ramps” at US 78. Anticipated construction improvements also include adding a narrow center median in the center turn lane from Greer Circle to Elmdale Drive, which will enhance safety by improving traffic flow and reducing congestion.

Mountain Industrial Boulevard Sidewalks: Greer Circle to E Ponce de Leon Avenue
TSCID has committed to funding 50% of the design costs and 25% of the construction costs for the improvement of pedestrian safety and connectivity along Mountain Industrial Boulevard, from Greer Circle and Lewis Road to E Ponce de Leon Avenue.
