Mableton Mayor shares strategic plan; Georgia sweepstakes returns for education savings fund

For years, Georgia saw a robust cityhood movement: between 2000 and 2022, ten new cities were incorporated across metro Atlanta. Among them is Mableton, Cobb County’s newest and largest city at nearly 80,000 residents. Mayor Michael Owens shares the city’s 2045 strategic plan and addresses concerns about how the city might fund its own police department.

Also, the “We Care, Child Care” sweepstakes is back in its 12th year and offering a $1,529 contribution to support your child’s future education fund. Bethany Whetzel, treasury program director at Georgia’s Office of the State Treasurer, shares how parents and grandparents can enter ahead of the July 31 deadline.
