Cityhood financially sound for Tucker

A Georgia State University study released Saturday has determined the proposed city of Tucker could provide services without a tax hike for residents.

The study found the would-be city of 63,000 would generate about $16.6 million in revenue and need about $13.3 million to pay for parks, police and other services.

Those projections include revenue from the Northlake Mall area, which is hotly disputed the proposed cities of Briarcliff and Lakeside.
