Andy Allen to Be Sworn In as Chattooga County’s Sole Commissioner Today

Andy Allen will be sworn in as Chattooga County’s Sole Commissioner today at 11 AM in the main courtroom of the Chattooga County Courthouse. Chattooga County is one of only seven counties in Georgia to retain the sole commissioner form of government, a structure unique to Georgia. Five of these counties are located in North Georgia.

While most of Georgia’s 159 counties operate with a 3–5-person commission, notable exceptions include seven consolidated governments and DeKalb County, which functions under a chief executive officer system. The public is invited to attend this morning’s ceremony to witness this significant moment in Chattooga County governance.
