A land battle between a freight railroad company and multiple Hancock County property owners has been ongoing for more than two and a half years. The dispute centers around whether Sandersville Railroad Company has the authority to build a 4.5-mile spur on and adjacent to some of their properties. After an April victory for Sandersville Railroad Company, Janet Paige Smith, the coalition leader of No Railroad in Our Community, returns to “Closer Look” to discuss an upcoming appeal.

We also aired WABE’s DorMiya Vance story that explores how East Point’s racial history plays a role in the lack of public aquatic spaces within the city.

Plus, Shannon Manigault is the City of Atlanta’s first inspector general. She talks with Rose about the more than 90 active investigations her office is working on and the “blatant obstruction” that they’re facing. In addition to the challenges, Manigault also explains the role and responsibilities of Atlanta’s inspector general.
