The Cobb Board of Commissioners will hold a work session Tuesday afternoon for briefings on the county’s housing assessment and economic development initiatives.
The work session starts at 1:30 p.m. at the second floor board room of the Cobb government building (100 Cherokee St., downtown Marietta).
You also can watch on the county’s website and YouTube channels and on Cobb TV 23 on Comcast Cable.
The housing assessment was compiled by the Atlanta Regional Commission “to get an understanding of current housing inventory, availability, and needs which can serve as a tool to inform the County in considering future housing goals and policy,” according to an agenda item.
Earlier this month, Cobb Tax Assessor Stephen White projected county tax digest growth in 2023 to be 13 percent, increasing due to rising average home sale prices. Last year, the average home sale in Cobb was nearly $453,000.
The economic development initiatives will be presented by Sabrina Wright, who was named the county’s economic development director last year.
