I informed no one in particular in a previous post that I would keep everyone up to date about Dunwoody’s incorporation, not only because our mayor has stated that he expects DeKalb County property taxes to rise as a result, but also because they are all part of our fair county.

Apparently reports on the Dunwoody city bill’s death had been greatly exaggerated earlier this year, because it is now through both the House and Senate and hanging out on the Governor’s desk. And even though Sonny has his issues with city incorporation, he says to the AJC,

“I issued a warning a couple of years ago about all the creation of cities,” Perdue said Wednesday. “I think the cows are out of the barn on that. I think Dunwoody needs to be treated like all the others that are there. Frankly, if the … Legislature sees fit to pass that, then I will see fit to bless that as well.”

At least Sonny had better composure than Representative Jill Chambers.

Yikes.

Anywho….it looks like DeKalb citizens within the proposed boundaries of a city of Dunwoody will vote yay! or nay! on July 15th.
