After months of deadlock, the Fulton County Commission has settled on a new county manager, according to Chairman John Eaves. But he won’t say who until “terms of agreement” are worked out, Eaves said through a spokeswoman. The panel hasn’t taken a formal vote.
Fulton has been without a county manager since Zachary Williams left in December to become chief operating officer in DeKalb County. The three finalists for the job are Dwight A. Ferrell, former deputy general manager for MARTA; Fulton County Finance Director Patrick O’Connor; and Morris E. Williams III, chief of staff of the DeKalb County Board of Commissioners.
