South Fulton Councilwoman Gomes outlines District 2 achievements as city marks eighth anniversary
Summary
Councilwoman Carmelita Gomes highlighted renovations, public-safety changes, parks funding and tax relief in a District 2 report during the City of South Fulton’s anniversary remarks.
Councilwoman Carmelita Gomes, who represents District 2 on the City of South Fulton Council, used a remarks segment during the city’s eighth-anniversary observance to summarize local accomplishments and near-term priorities for her district.
Gomes said the district has reopened and renovated its local fire station, integrated social workers into police response teams to provide immediate mental-health support during crises, and pushed for stricter penalties on illegal dumping and for comprehensive bans on single-use plastics. "I love the city of South Fulton," she said.
The councilwoman described new wellness programs aimed at seniors, including pop-up dental clinics, salons and farmers markets, and said funding has been secured for the Clifton Dale Park master plan; she said the first phase will include a half-mile soft-surface walking trail. Gomes also cited work to enhance the Wolf Creek Amphitheater and to bring concerts back to the community. She said the city achieved a rollback of the property tax millage rate for financial relief to residents.
Gomes framed the remarks as part of a larger effort to build green spaces, support cultural venues and improve residents’ quality of life. She urged continued engagement and said District 2 leaders will "continue to rise," while asking residents to stay informed and involved.
The remarks were presented as a district report and did not include motions or formal votes recorded in the transcript.
