the city of Chamblee is launching Chamblee 101, a nine-week program designed to educate residents and business owners on how the city government works, who’s responsible for what and what steps you can take to make a difference. The classes include discussions and interactive activities on topics such as Chamblee’s history, form of government, city services, finance and development.

Classes are 6 p.m. every Wednesday beginning Feb. 21 and going through April 10. The kickoff for the class, however, is Monday, Feb. 12. The graduation ceremony will take place at the City Council meeting on April 17.
