WAYNE'S PRIORITIES
"I’m not running for a title — I’m running to serve. To represent the people of District 11 with integrity, compassion, and action."
-Wayne Martin

Youth and Seniors
Wayne understands that a healthy community supports every generation. His programs like Covenant Scholars and Iron Sharpens Iron have provided mentorship and resources to students across the city. He’s equally committed to expanding housing, wellness and transportation for Atlanta’s seniors.

Public Safety
Wayne believes public safety starts with trust. His work with the Atlanta Police Department helped launch neighborhood foot patrols to increase visibility and build relationships between officers and residents. Safety is not about politics — it’s about presence, prevention, and accountability.

Affordable Housing
Wayne has led efforts to repurpose historic school buildings into affordable housing, creating stable homes while preserving neighborhood character. He will continue to fight for accessible, high-quality housing options for all Atlantans.

Public Transit and Infrastructure
Westside communities deserve transit systems that work. Wayne supports expanded MARTA access, better connectivity to the BeltLine, and infrastructure improvements that prioritize pedestrians, cyclists, and underserved neighborhoods.

Healthy Communities
Wayne believes every resident should have access to fresh, affordable food and clean, safe neighborhoods. He’s committed to expanding food equity initiatives and restoring dignity to our communities through sustainable development and green space preservation and revitalization.

Transparency and Accountability
Wayne will champion a more open, responsive city government. He supports accessible public records, community advisory boards, and digital tools that make it easier for residents to track budgets, understand policies, and make their voices heard.
