City Council Update

The Tucker City Council met for their sole meeting of July with Mayor Pro-Tem Cara Schroeder leading the meeting in the Mayor’s approved absence.

In honor of National Parks and Recreation Month, the Friends of Tucker Parks led the Pledge of Allegiance and the Mayor Pro-Tem presented a proclamation to the Parks and Recreation Department.

During the motion to approve the evening’s agenda, an item to amend the contract for the purchase of properties on Montreal Way to extend the closing date was added to the consent agenda. The addition, the evening’s agenda and the consent agenda were then all approved.

An ordinance to create a City Marshal office was voted 6-0 to defer a decision to the first August meeting. The same was also voted to defer a deciding vote on the proposed text amendment for Chapter 46 Zoning for the purpose of updating the regulations for drive-thru facilities and drive-thru restaurants.

The Council heard a first read of an ordinance to amend the zoning code for general clean-ups and then voted 6-0 on two resolutions.

  • A resolution amending the fee schedule for Fiscal Year 2026-specifically for Parks and Recreation programming and film permits.
  • A resolution authorizing participation in the Amicus Brief in the Chang v. City of Milton Appeal.

Tucker’s Mayor and City Council meet the second and fourth Monday of each month. Meetings are held at City Hall and streamed online at tuckerga.gov/agendas.

Tucker City Hall is located at 1975 Lakeside Parkway, Suite 350, Tucker, Georgia 30084.

Thank you to Jac Colatosti of Troop 129! As part of his 2025 Eagle Project, he created and installed drop-off boxes at City Hall and Tucker Recreation Center for United States flags in need of retirement.

If you have a United States flag in poor condition, you can bring it to the drop-off boxes at City Hall and TRC during regular business hours.
