He represents District 2, which includes much of East Cobb and some of the Smyrna-Vinings-Cumberland area.

It’s the first town hall for Ott since commissioners voted in July to raise property taxes to fund the fiscal year 2019 budget of $454 million.

Ott voted against that budget, saying not enough budget cuts were proposed.

A couple of weeks later, he sent out extended comments to constituents about the budget, saying District 2 would benefit only by getting a new crew to maintain roads.

First elected in 2008, Ott is a Republican in his third term, and is the longest-serving member of the five-person board of commissioners.
