Dear Editor,

During the week of April 21-27, Twin City will join other cities across Georgia in celebrating Georgia Cities Week. This week has been set aside to recognize the many services city gov-ernments provide and their contribution to a better quality of life in Georgia. Our theme, "Soaring to New Heights reflects the role cities play in the state's history, economy and cul-ture.

City government is truly government of, by and for the people - the people who are making the decisions about our community are your neighbors, business owners and community leaders. We are in this together, and we want our city to thrive.

We recognize that throughout our lifetimes, the average person will have more direct contact with local governments than with state or federal governments. Because of this, we feel a re-sponsibility to ensure that the public knows how the city operates and feels connected to their city government.

During this week, we want to recognize the role city government plays in our lives: from trash collection to public safety to promoting the area's culture and recreation. We hope you will join us in this celebration and learn more about your city and how it operates for you.

Sincerely,

Mayor Matt W. Donaldson

City of Twin City, Georgia
