The public at large gets a look at some of the fine details of police work in an interesting write-up in the Midtown Patch about the re-drawing of Atlanta Police zones. The biggest upshot here is that the zone encompassing Midtown and Georgia Tech is shrinking, which means there will be a greater concentration of officers working the area, which should come as a big relief to Georgia Tech students, parents (and administrators) in the wake of the recent spate of crimes perpetrated on Tech students. The Midtown and Georgia Tech success stories have been among few bright spots of the past few recession-ravaged years in Atlanta at-large; the city is wise to increase the resources allocated to keeping them safe.
