Dunwoody mayor won't seek second term
Ken Wright, mayor of Dunwoody, has decided his first three years in office were enough.
"I've got young kids and a company to run outside of this," he said Wednesday in a phone interview. "It has been a wonderful experience, but it is time for me to move on."
The office of mayor was initially set up as a part-time post with an initial three-year term. Subsequent terms would last four years.
Wright, former president of Citizens for Dunwoody Inc., the non-profit group that promoted the then-community's incorporation, said he's been working for Dunwoody -- or the creation of the city -- for 10 years.
"Getting the city up and running properly was my goal," he said. "It's time for me to get back to my family and my career."
