DEL.ICIO.USAs ex-mayor, she’ll still run the welcome wagon
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Lillian Webb says leaving elected office won’t stop her from paying visits to newcomers to downtown Norcross.
Webb last week was denied a 12th term as Norcross mayor when she was defeated in a runoff election by retired Georgia Tech band director Bucky Johnson.
As mayor, Webb has long made a point of visiting new arrivals to old Norcross.
“I guess that’s kind of homespun,” Webb said. “I kind of like to welcome folks into the neighborhood and extend a hand of friendship.”
Asked if she’ll continue carrying the welcome mat when she leaves office, Webb replied, “Oh yes.”
