Breaking Away, Part 2: The unheard of 94% mandate

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! On the show today, we are joined by Sandy Springs City Councilman Tibby DeJulio for Part 2 of our mini-series on the incorporation of the City of Sandy Springs.

Sandy Springs City Councilman Tibby DeJulio joins to recount the decades-long push to incorporate Sandy Springs and the grassroots movement that powered it. He reflects on the community’s determination and the 2005 vote in which an overwhelming 94% of residents supported cityhood.

DeJulio offers a behind-the-scenes look at how residents transformed a long-standing vision into one of Georgia’s most successful incorporations.
