New Johns Creek Mayor Bradberry Says Town Center, Civil Discourse Is Focus

JOHNS CREEK, GA — Johns Creek’s new mayor wants to put his focus on public safety, building the Town Center and cultivating more of a “cohesive community” according to his January letter to residents.

"We will focus on those things which bring our community closer together, move our city forward, and ultimately add value for our residents and businesses," said John Bradberry said in the statement. "We are committed to civil discourse and, at times when we disagree, we can do so in a respectful fashion and conduct ourselves with decorum. We will be productive and efficient in our deliberations and remain open, transparent and ethical in our decision making.

On Monday Bradberry will be sworn in as the new during the regular City Council meeting. He said in his letter that the city is seeking business proposals for redevelopment.

“There is definite opportunity for economic development in Johns Creek, and we are ready for businesses, council and the community to work together to achieve great projects,” Bradberry said in the statement.

Newly elected council members Bob Erramilli, Dilip Tunki and Larry DiBiase will also be sworn into office Monday.

Residents of Johns Creek are invited to an open house from 6-8 p.m. Jan. 13 at City Hall. Bradberry said he plans to deliver a state of the city address in February.

“After the City Council and I attend our strategic planning retreat in late January, I will be delivering a State of the City address sometime in mid-February,” he said. “I’m looking forward to sharing with you more about our action plans at that time.”
