🌱 Election Observers For Fulton County + Autrey Mill Restrictions

Hello, everybody. I'm here with your fresh copy of the Johns Creek Daily, filled with all the local information you need to know right now.

But first, today's weather:

Plenty of sun. High: 82 Low: 52.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Johns Creek who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Johns Creek Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top three stories today in Johns Creek:

1. On Oct. 13, the Carter Center announced it will observe the November midterm elections in Fulton County. The election observers will watch Fulton County's absentee ballot issuance and processing, early voting and election day polling places, election day operations in the elections office, and post-election procedures. (11 Alive)
2. The Johns Creek City Council approved a resolution to remove restrictions on certain types of special events and alcohol service during special events at Autrey Mill Park and Nature Preserve. Since Johns Creek took ownership of the property from Fulton County, the special events and service of alcohol will be governed by the city's alcohol ordinance.
