Candidates for County Chair on Taxes, Spending and Infrastructure
The first forum featuring three candidates for the chair of the Cobb County Board of Commissioners was held at Grace City Church, bringing crucial discussions to the forefront. Incumbent Lisa Cupid defended the necessity of a stormwater fee proposal to address the county's infrastructure challenges, underlining her commitment to balancing growth with sustainability. In contrast, both Shelia Edwards and Kay Morgan, Cupid's challengers, expressed their opposition to increased taxes and spending. Morgan, in particular, outlined her critique of Cupid's proposed 30-year transit tax, questioning its timely relevance and impact on the economic well-being of citizens. The overarching themes of the forum included a call for responsible budgeting, the urgency of infrastructure improvements, and fostering economic development partnerships with the state, signaling a pivotal moment in the county's approach to governance and development strategies.
