Interim DeKalb County CEO Lee may is continuing his community meetings about the county’s past and future, and he has also added an extra session.

Three meetings are remaining, and they will be held at 7 p.m. on Thursday at Welcome Friend Baptist Church and Tuesday at the Maloof Auditorium, and at 6:30 p.m. on Aug. 27 at the Dunwoody Library.

May has led the county for more than a year after taking over for Burrell Ellis, who was suspended pending the outcome of his trial next month on charges that he improperly pressured government contractors for campaign contributions.
