Answer:
Bringing the 1996 Summer Olympic Games to Atlanta was a long shot. Athens, Greece, was the sentimental favorite to host the centennial games, and tension was palpable as IOC President Juan Antonio Samaranch made the announcement back on Sept. 18, 1990.
"The International Olympic Committee has awarded the 1996 Olympic Games to the city of ... Atlanta," Samaranch revealed.
That announcement launched more than $1 billion of construction projects, from Olympic venues to housing for the athletes. Now, on the 15th anniversary of the games, Atlanta sees both gains and losses from the international event.
One of the most prominent legacies of the games is Centennial Olympic Park in the heart of Atlanta. The 21-acre plaza glistens in what was an area of urban decay, and children run and linger in the fountain.
Harvey Newman, a professor of public policy at Georgia State University, says the park brought economic development downtown.
"The area surrounding the park has added major hotels, condominiums, new office structures and, of course, people continue to flock to enjoy the Olympic rings fountain," Newman says.

The approach to resolving ethical dilemmas which Amy would most likely employ is:
utilitarian.
Explanation:
This ethical resolution approach presupposes that an action is right when it promotes happiness for the performer of the action and for everyone involved. This implies that the majority of the people involved derive maximum benefit from the action. This approach stresses that what is at stake is the utility or usefulness or value of an action, especially in relation to society as a whole and not just for an individual's selfish satisfaction.
