DeKalb County’s parks department will host a meeting next month to discuss the future of Johns’ Homestead, a county park on Lawrenceville Highway in Tucker.

The Johns family lived and farmed the property from 1827 through the 1980s. The county has bought 47 acres of the property and now must decide management of the historic home and improvements to the park.

The meeting will be held from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 9 at Rehoboth Baptist Church, 2997 Lawrenceville Highway, Tucker.
