The city of Snellville has named a new city manager.
Matthew Pepper, who previously served as Snellville’s assistant city manager under Butch Sanders, was appointed earlier this month. Sanders retired after 12 years in the position.
“I am humbled that Mayor and Council have shown their faith in me by naming me City Manager of the City of Snellville,” Pepper said in a statement. “During the last two years, I have learned the position from my predecessor Butch Sanders and am confident I can help Snellville prosper for years to come.”
Prior to becoming assistant city manager, Pepper served as manager for the city of Oxford in Newton County and worked for the city of Alpharetta in its economic development office. He earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Brigham Young University and a master’s degree in public administration from the University of Georgia.
“We are very pleased Matthew agreed to step into this role as City Manager,” Snellville mayor Barbara Bender said. “We are confident he will excel in his new position.”
