The group that successfully advocated for ethics and oversight reforms in DeKalb is getting back together, this time to consider changing the county's form of government.

Blueprint DeKalb, a citizen-led group organized by DeKalb Commissioner Kathie Gannon, is seeking volunteers to study the county's problems, reach conclusions and make recommendations before the end of the Georgia Legislature's 2016 session.

One frequently discussed proposal would be to eliminate DeKalb's CEO position, replacing it with a county manager who answers to the commission.

The Blueprint DeKalb meeting will be held Monday from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the DeKalb South Senior Center at 1931 Candler Road.
