The cities of Alpharetta and Milton are looking for an attorney to represent the combined roughly 105,000 residents in court.

A city solicitor prosecutes cases involving city code and traffic violations — these are the small, everyday local cases like tree cutting across property lines or noise violations.

The cities will share the cost of the position, according to a Facebook post from Milton government. Alpharetta’s court sessions are held in Milton’s courtroom, which is inside the city’s police building.
