As the fiscal year comes to a close, District 1 Commissioner Alaina Reaves is scheduled to meet with Clayton County residents to discuss the proposed FY26 Budget. A public session titled 'Let's Talk Budget' has been organized to provide information and allow for questions and feedback regarding the allocation of county funds. The event is intended to offer an opportunity for residents to learn more about the budgeting process and how resources may be distributed across county services.
The "Let's Talk Budget" event is scheduled for June 7, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., and will take place at the Police Headquarters located at 7911 N. McDonough Rd, Jonesboro, GA 30236. According to Clayton County, the event is part of the broader #Claytonconnected campaign, which aims to enhance communication and understanding between county government and the community.
Commissioner Reaves’s upcoming engagement precedes the scheduled Budget Vote on June 17, a key date with potential impacts for Clayton County residents. The event provides an opportunity for attendees to ask questions and receive information about the proposed budget. It also allows Commissioner Reaves to explain the priorities and funding decisions included in the proposal, as public attention on fiscal matters remains high.
Community engagement events such as 'Let's Talk Budget' provide a forum for local government officials to share information and receive input from residents. These sessions can support the decision-making process by facilitating communication between the public and county leadership. Residents interested in the county’s fiscal planning are encouraged to attend.
