Joe Seconder Dunwoody City Councilman

Last night, City of Dunwoody - Government Council took an important step forward by advancing a rooftop solar initiative for two of our city facilities. This is expected to generate immediate cost savings, reduce emissions, and strengthen our long-term energy resilience — all with no upfront cost to the City.

This is a great example of a practical, collaborative effort between City staff, our Sustainability Committee, and Council. It’s also just the beginning — I’m excited to continue exploring additional opportunities across Dunwoody, including other facilities and even concepts like covered parking.

I’ve shared more details in my latest blog post here:

The City of Dunwoody - Government City Council will hold our Strategic Planning Retreat on March 25, and I’ve shared some thoughts on the priorities I believe we should focus on as we plan for the year ahead.

Topics include connected infrastructure, financial planning, ex*****on of adopted plans, and maintaining transparency with residents.

I am deeply troubled by the attack at Temple Israel synagogue in Michigan. My thoughts and prayers are with the Jewish community and all those affected by this act of hatred.

No one should have to fear for their safety when gathering in a place of worship. Antisemitism and violence have no place in America.

As local leaders, we have a duty to speak clearly against hate and to work every day to ensure our communities remain places where people of all faiths can live, worship, and gather in peace.
