They say they are ready for June 19. And that sentiment was easily evidenced May 19 as 200 Chattahoochee Hill Country residents heard the latest information on the June vote to accept the charter of the new city and exercise local control for the first time.

Georgia State University’s Prof. Robert Eger gave an updated view of the proposed city’s financial status, showing the new city $85,996 in the black. Those figures represent conservative estimates, Eger said of the city that will cover approximately 33,000 acres but have less than 2,100 residents.

Meantime, the Chatt Hills Organizing Committee continues to grow, now with 140 volunteers serving on a dozen committees.
