The 40 acres of Intrenchment Creel Park that DeKalb gave to Millsap in 2021 belongs to the people.

Anything less than restoring every square inch of the land back to the public will be a settlement too small. It’s hard to say what DeKalb is doing from this article. Will they only sue for $200k? What about the other agreements broken in the swap like the $1 million in-kind to invest in the park, the agreement to keep the park accessible until Michelle Obama was developed, and the promise of film industry training at McNair Highschool made to the DeKalb County School District ? @dekalbschools SRWA has fought for 7 years alongside residents of DeKalb District 3 and beyond on the ICP landswap issue #StopTheSwap to protect their beloved parkland and watershed! Our citizens lawsuit prevented Ryan Millsap from developing the land. Now Millsap, a real estate mogul & developer, wants to sell the 40 acres to a data center developer. Just down the river, Shadowbox Studios (of which Millsap is a minority owner) is suing the county for the right to build a massive data center campus directly on a long stretch of the South River. Let’s see what DeKalb lawyers can do for the people. #stoptheswap 🍿 Thank you @decaturish @atlpresscollective @wabeatl @ajcnews @saportareport for your coverage note and over the years. #saveweelaunee @saveweelaunee @gasierraclub @keyannafordekalb @saveweelaunee @investinsouthdekalb @southriverforest #srwa #southriverga
