ATLANTA - Ivory Lee Young Jr. said scantily clad females used public resources in the wrong way. That much the city councilman said he can determine immediately just by looking at the photographs which appeared in a sexually oriented advertisement on the web site.
The public resources the councilman makes reference to is fire equipment housed inside the Jonesboro Road station.
In one photo, a female in high heels somehow climbed or may have been lifted all the way to the top of a truck to take her pose.

It is not uncommon for permission to be granted to individuals who may want to snap a photo at a firehouse. Usually those request come from parents and school groups.
