Another July 31st Vote: Creating a City of Brookhaven
Decatur Metro | July 25, 2012With all the T-SPLOST talk, you may have forgotten that some North DeKalb residents will also be voting on whether to create a City of Brookhaven on July 31st. The Champion newspaper has a nice article on the upcoming vote in their latest issue.
Supporters of cityhood say they’re “not overconfident” but “confident” that the measure will pass.
As many of you already know, the creation of another city in North DeKalb would again have adverse effects on DeKalb County’s budget, which is already under a lot of stress, due in part to high property foreclosure rates and evolving measures of property assessment.
