Community Q & A

We have received a number of questions from the community related to the formation of our new city. If you have questions, send us an email and we will see what we can find out.

Q: Is there any geographic significance to the City Council posts?
A: "Unfortunately, our posts have no geographic significance. Originally our bill called for Districts which would have divided up our city into 6 equal geographic regions. This concept was dropped when the referrendum vote was split to allow the citizens residing in Newtown to have thier own referrendum vote this past July. I still believe that Districts is the best way to elect our City Council members and vow to continue to pursue thier reinstatement at some later date."
- Mike Bodker, Johns Creek Mayor
