The question of how DeKalb County should structure its government is the focus of two upcoming meetings hosted by interim CEO Lee May.

The first community meeting, led by a North Carolina government professor, will be held from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Monday at the Porter Sanford performing arts center, 3181 Rainbow Dr., near Decatur.

The second meeting runs from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday at Rehoboth Baptist Church, 2997 Lawrenceville Highway, Tucker.

May plans to use the input to help develop a legislative agenda for lawmakers in the session that begins in January.
