DeKalb County CEO Lorraine Cochran-Johnson and members of her Executive Cabinet hosted the 2025 Third Quarter Town Hall on October 29 at the Woodruff Health Science Center Administration Building. Residents joined both in person and online to hear updates on key priorities under the administration’s “DeKalb Reimagined” vision.

During the event, CEO Cochran-Johnson shared progress from her first eight months in office, highlighting advancements across infrastructure, economic development, housing, public safety, and technology. Members of the Executive Cabinet provided detailed updates on departmental initiatives and the County’s strategic direction heading into the final quarter of the year.

“Transparency and accountability are the foundation of good government,” said CEO Cochran-Johnson. “I’m grateful to every resident who took the time to engage with us. Your feedback shapes how we move DeKalb forward.”

The interactive session included pre-submitted questions from residents and emphasized collaboration across departments to deliver measurable results for DeKalb’s 765,000 residents.
