New Year for South Fulton

What are your expectations for South Fulton County? The housing market has slowed and growth has slowed. New schools are in the works. Are there any new parks in the works to help relieve the overcrowded parks? Work is underway to get the youth crime under control.

Rep. Roger Bruce has dropped a bill that will allow unincorporated South Fulton to keep its Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) contributions. That could put another $10.5 - $12 million in South Fulton budget. Otherwise, the money benefits the rest of Fulton County through the General Funds budget.
