Peachtree City announced that its PTC 101 civic-education program is the recipient of a CivicPlus Community Impact award, Speaker 1 said at a city council meeting.
"So we were delighted to announce in our city council meeting that Peachtree City is the recipient of the ... community impact award for our wonderful PTC 101 class," Speaker 1 said, describing CivicPlus as "a technology and service organization that helps local governments run more efficiently."
Speaker 1 outlined PTC 101 as a staff-created, free eight-week class that allows participants to learn about city operations, including the budget, the library, public works and public safety. The speaker said the program had 25 participants in its first year and 40 participants this past spring and stated that applications will be open in January for the 2026 class.
The city did not provide further details on award criteria, what the award ranking number was (the transcript’s wording about the award ranking was unclear), or whether the recognition carries a grant or other material benefit. City staff presented the announcement as recognition of civic-engagement work and invited residents to apply next January.
