“We’re very proud of our City and the services we provide that make it attractive to residents and visitors,” said Mayor Rick Roberts. “Cities provide the infrastructure for growing businesses, quality of life for individuals and families and are a gathering spot for people throughout the regions.”
On Wednesday, April 25, 2012, beginning at 10:00 AM the fifth grade classes from Ball Ground Elementary School will visit City Hall to participate in a Mock City Council Meeting. Mayor Roberts and the City Council will talk with the students about the roll the Mayor and Council have in local government.
