At Sandy Spring’s annual Mayor and City Council Retreat, city leaders with the help of City Manager Eden Freeman and staff discussed a list of priorities to focus on this year. At the Feb. 15 council meeting, the Sandy Springs City Council formally adopted the 2022 City Council Priorities.

The seven areas of concentration include:

· Customer Service and Citizen Engagement

· Public Safety

· Transportation Accessibility and Community Appearance

· Economic Development and The North End

· Recreational and Cultural Enrichment

· Sustainable Growth and Environmental Stewardship

These priorities reflect a review of 2021 priorities and will be taken into consideration when the Fiscal Year 2023 budget is set.
