Doraville adopts furlough policy

Doraville, which is requiring employees to take five furlough days this year, has adopted a policy for workers to take their days.

The City Council consensus calls for department heads to work with workers so schedule furlough time that has the least impact on city services.

The council also agreed to close the Doraville library the week of Dec. 19. All library employees will take their mandated five furlough days that week.
