2022 State of the City

Peachtree Corners has now been a city for 10 years and we have a lot to show for it. For those of you who remember the PTC Yes! Campaign, the theme was “we’re at the tipping point,” meaning we needed to act to give our community the tools to control our own destiny. 

At that time, our City was literally at the tipping point of decline. Property values were stagnant, companies were moving out, and the area was starting to show its age. There were still a lot of great things about Peachtree Corners, and by focusing on a balanced approach to redevelopment, public safety, and quality of life, we’ve tipped things back towards progress and continue to maintain a zero-city tax rate for all of us! 

Take a tour of the City with Mayor Pro Tem Weare Gratwick and learn more about the construction, recreation, infrastructure, education, redevelopment, and more that have been completed and are on the horizon in Peachtree Corners.

We hope you can see why we say, the state of the city

is great. After 10 years as a city, together, we have accomplished a lot, and we look forward to a bright future. Stay safe, thanks for watching and we hope to see you around the City.
