Cobb County Commissioners and department leaders will discuss the findings of a citizens oversight committee report on the county’s spending and organization during a retreat Monday in Marietta.

The oversight committee’s final report, released last month, included recommendations for cutting the county’s budget, eliminating redundancies and prioritizing the county’s services. The recommendations included closing four county library branches and considering an employee clinic.

The meeting begins at 10 a.m. in the county government building, 100 Cherokee Street in Marietta.
