What’s on your mind?

The two representatives on the County Commission of the 4th district, Greg Matthews and Tony “Cully” Culwell, are hosting a community forum especially for their constituents on Wednesday, November 23 at 6 p.m. in the history room of the DeKalb County Complex.

The purpose of the meeting is to keep residents and taxpayers of the 4th district up to date on issues coming before the county commission and to get public input. Both Matthews and Culwell will take questions and listen to any complaints, concerns, or comments you may have.

Although this meeting is primarily for the people of the 4th district anyone in the county may attend as it is an open public forum.

Matthews and Culwell hope this becomes a monthly community event.
