FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. – The Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a resolution in support of the Association of County Commissioners Georgia (ACCG) effort to reform Georgia’s Annexation Dispute Resolution which many believe is outdated and places too much power in the hands of cities.
In signing onto the resolution, Forsyth joins a growing number of Georgia counties, including neighboring Hall and Cherokee, who are seeking reform.
In introducing the resolution to the Board, County Manager Kevin Tanner said, “the ACCG is working very closely with their legislative group to come up with some reform to Georgia’s annexation dispute resolution here in the state.
Earlier this year, a Georgia House Study Committee on Annexation was formed and its members traveled around the state gathering information. The House is expected address the issue when the General Assembly reconvenes in January.
