Either in the establishment in the city of Campbell or secession of Campbell county. Ironically Milton County and Campbell counties were absorbed into Fulton county back in the 1930's because they were bankrupt and now these areas are looking for ways of self-determination away from Fulton. Leasing or privatizing the airport would solve all of Atlanta's and Fulton County economic woes. There is movement in south Fulton as well.

But since that is unlikely, there has been success in areas of northern FC becoming cities so they can obtain some level of autonomy. Sandy Springs, where my family lives, kicked off the trend, followed by John's Creek and others. Dunwoody, which is a term for a region spanning Fulton and Dekalb, wants to become its own city in Dekalb County and just got DOJ approval to move foward with a referendum.

There is no telling how much water is wasted from leaking pipes. Atlanta and Fulton county need to fix the 100 year old leaking water pipes that plague the system.

Everyone did exactly what they were told to do and then the City Council raised the water cost by 15% because the water authority was losing money. :lol: They did the same thing in Charlotte.

The citizens have conserved water so well, that now because of it Fulton County is losing water revenue, so they are jacking the rates up! Heaven forbid a government agency do with less money. Unbelievable. There is a water ban still in place in much of Georgia.

It seems to me like limiting or eliminating that would save a lot of water. I don’t know much about the drought in Georgia so this might be a dumb question but are people still watering their lawns?
