📣 Cobb County residents — here’s a look at what’s coming up!

April is National County Government Month, and Chairwoman Lisa Cupid is sharing a preview of the key items ahead of the April 28th Board of Commissioners meeting.

🎓 Graduates from the Youth Commission will be honored, Cobb 4H students who placed NATIONALLY will be celebrated, and Whitefield Academy will be recognized for earning AP Honor Roll Platinum status for the 3rd year in a row!

👴 Cobb Senior Services is set to receive an additional $240K from the Atlanta Regional Commission — bringing its total annual contract to $2.4M to better serve Cobb’s senior residents.

✈️ A new contract with Georgia DOT would send $2.2M to Cobb International Airport for gate upgrades, airfield maintenance, and pavement improvements.

🚨 911 could be getting smarter — new AI technology would help triage non-emergency calls so true emergencies get the fastest response possible.

🗺️ A Comprehensive Plan update is on the way — a 20+ year roadmap for how Cobb grows and develops.

🗳️ The Board will vote on a SPLOST project list for the 2028 program — a one-penny sales tax for roads and buildings headed to the November 2026 ballot.

Today, we lost a giant. Congressman David Scott dedicated over two decades of his life to serving the people of metro Atlanta and when Cobb County was part of his district, he served us well.

He helped secure significant federal dollars for projects that strengthened our community. He opened doors to jobs for thousands of residents through his job fairs. He hosted health fairs that helped save lives.

Congressman Scott understood that public service meant more than casting votes. It meant making sure people could eat, work, and get the care they needed. It also meant top notch responsiveness to public officials like me and to each person who contacted his office for help.

Even after redistricting moved Cobb out of his district, the relationships he built and the investments he made here continued to bear fruit.

To his wife Alfredia, his daughters Dayna and Marcye, and the entire Scott family — please know that Cobb County mourns with you. We are grateful for a man who believed deeply that every constituent deserved a congressman who worked hard on their behalf and I will always appreciate his support and encouragement of me.

Rest well, Congressman. Your legacy lives in this community.

I received a post from a Hillgrove parent today.

This morning, Hillgrove High School in our community went into a Code Red lockdown after a firearm was detected on campus. I am relieved and grateful that all students and staff are safe, that the student involved is in custody, and that school and law enforcement personnel responded swiftly and professionally.

I want to be transparent: as Chairwoman of Cobb County Government, my office does not have jurisdiction over Cobb County School District — our schools operate under their own elected Board of Education. But make no mistake — what happens in our schools happens in our community. The safety and well-being of every child and educator in Cobb County is something I take personally.

Moments like today remind us why investments in school safety, mental health resources, and community trust matter. I commend Cobb County School District leadership, Hillgrove's staff, and our law enforcement partners for their coordinated response.

To every Hillgrove family: I hope your children come home safely today and everyday and that you feel the support of our entire community surrounding you.

Honored to join my fellow Chairwomen for the NFBPA panel “Her Power, Our Voice: A Leadership Conversation” this International Women’s Day.

It was a privilege to be in the room with Chairwoman Nicole Hendrickson of Gwinnett County, Chairwoman Alieka Anderson-Henry of Clayton County, and Chairwoman Carlotta Harrell of Henry County. These women show up every day for their communities, and that is worth celebrating.

Thank you also to all women who support Cobb in making it the best it can be and to all who support them. It is not easy or glamorous work, but it is great work that is made possible by your contributions every day for our families, our neighbors, and our county.

We share a kindred spirit and commitment with women all over the globe who continue to make the world go round.

Happy International Women’s Day. Today and every day, I see you, I thank you, and today celebrate you. 💜

Wishing you all a day filled with love, joy, and connection
