The Immunity & Breaks Bill
New city authority gets immunity and tax breaks
Albany-Dougherty Inner City Authority Act; enact
Bad for everyday people ·
If passed, the Albany‑Dougherty Authority would be immune from many lawsuits and get tax breaks, so ordinary people could pay more if things go wrong.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Citizens should watch this bill because its immunity and tax exemptions could protect developers and shift financial risk onto taxpayers, limiting community control over city projects.
