In this issue of Decatur Metro we have the “lost” generation of educated folks not being able to find jobs and in progressive Decatur, we have a keep the retirement generation working. Really!! How about not doing that and hiring some of the graduates with student loans to pay back? Let the retirement age folks go do something else and volunteer for a change to give back.

You can a resident card at Glenlake Tennis Center. You have to present proof of residence inside the city limits – a tax bill would be the easiest, I would think, that’s what we brought.

The resident card will let pay the daily resident fee to get into a city pool. You can also get a pool pass (for the whole summer) at the tennis center the same way. Proof of residency will let you pay the lower rate for the pass or you can get a non-resident pass for the higher fee.

(Thanks to the poster above who clarified the increase in fees, by the way. That was confusing to me as well.)

The pools website says theyll issue a resident card when a resident presents a tax bill. A license isn’t good enough since people like me have a license that says Decatur & 30030 but live in unincorporated Dekalb.

With over $4,000 a year in city taxes I am glad they are finally charging residents more than no-residents. City of Atlanta, DeKalb & Gwinnett have been doing this for years
