Atlanta City Councilmember Felicia Moore briefed the Buckhead Council of Neighborhoods at its Jan. 8 meeting about her ongoing efforts to access city financial records.
Moore has requested access to Oracle, the city’s financial reporting system, to view payments made by the city. Moore was denied access in October in a letter from Mayor Kasim Reed, who accused Moore of “Washington-style politics” and for making a “naked political grab.”
“I’m not resting on the ‘no’ from the mayor,” Moore said. “It’s our money, your money, and I think we should have access.”
The councilwoman said she wanted the public to contact mayor’s office and demand more transparency.
