The Dunwoody City Council voted unanimously Friday to allow homeowners association members to continue serving on volunteer government boards.
The vote came after Mayor Denis Shortal had asked members of the Dunwoody Homeowners Association last week to resign from the association or the city boards.
Shortal said he was concerned about the homeowners association's influence on government, saying conflicts of interest could be used against the city when developers sue over zoning decisions.
But members of the Dunwoody Homeowners Association said they were pivotal to the city’s creation eight years ago, and they deserve a voice in their government.
