The Fulton County Board of Commissioners is slated to convene for its Second Regular March Meeting this coming Wednesday, March 19 at 10 a.m. For those interested in local governance and the workings of Fulton County, the gathering will take place at the Fulton County Government Center Assembly Hall located at 141 Pryor Street, NW, Atlanta, GA 30303, according to Fulton County's official news release. The agenda is accessible to the public online beforehand for those looking to get a glimpse of the topics up for discussion.
Updates from the County Manager and various departments such as Elections, Public Works, Information Technology, and Finance are expected to be delivered to the Board of Commissioners, a focal point of the meeting; additionally, residents can attend the meeting in person or tune in to a live broadcast of the proceedings on Fulton County Government Television.
When it comes to public participation, the Board of Commissioners offers three avenues: attending and speaking at the meeting in person, contributing via Zoom, or submitting written comments by email—options that aim to facilitate civic engagement and ensure community voices can be heard. However, those who wish to give verbal comments or attend the meeting virtually are reminded that their requests must be made before the 10 a.m. commencement of the meeting.
Conforming to a change made by the Board during its January 16, 2024, Special Called Meeting public comments submitted via email must now reach the Board by the close of business on Monday before the scheduled meeting; these comments will be forwarded to each Board Member the following Tuesday, representing an adjustment from previous proceedings where email comments were read aloud during the meetings, individuals looking to submit written comments for the upcoming March 19 meeting can send them to [email protected].
Moreover, for residents who prefer the virtual format, registration for the Zoom webinar is available and can be completed in advance through the provided link with the passcode 438856. The county also facilitates access to the meeting by offering online viewing options on both the Fulton Government Television YouTube channel and the FGTV Live Stream platform.
