ATLANTA - Carden Wyckoff, 32, is the newest and youngest member of the Atlanta City Council, and she says she is wasting no time getting to work.

Wyckoff, who was appointed this week to fill the remainder of former Councilman Amir Farokhi’s term , has just 104 days in office. She said her priority is making the city more accessible for residents with disabilities.

What they're saying:

"A big piece of legislation I am working on right now is a push to open door policy throughout the city of Atlanta," Wyckoff said. "We have that already in the Midtown District Improvement District and what that is is you press a button and the door automatically opens. So I’m wanting to have this added to all new buildings across the entire city of Atlanta."
