• Park reiterates theme of 'Better Together' during state of the city speech (roughdraftatlanta.com) — Brookhaven residents just heard Mayor John Park report strong city finances, lower crime, and a recent millage rate increase meant to maintain services during his State of the City speech. He highlighted double AAA bond ratings, major projects like the Northbend redevelopment and BMW investment, and expanding parks and trails so most neighbors live within a short walk of green space.
