If you are interested in hearing reapportionment information or sharing your views about transportation, growth and the future of the Atlanta region, here are two upcoming events for you:
DeKalb County Commissioner Kathie Gannon will host an informational public meeting on the demographic changes in the 2010 Census that will drive reapportionment and changes in the political boundaries on Wednesday, July 27 from 7 – 8 p.m. at Meadowview Elementary School, 1879 Wee Kirk Rd, SW, Atlanta, GA 30316.
The Civic League for Regional Atlanta will host “Get A Move On: A 10-County Town Hall on Transportation, Growth and the Future of the Atlanta Region.
