DeKalb County recently celebrated the groundbreaking of Fire Station No. 27 on Pleasant Hill Road in Lithonia. When complete by early 2028, the $9.6-million station is expected to improve emergency response times in southeast DeKalb County.

The two-story, 14,600-square-foot station will support Fire Station 14, which serves Lithonia extending into Stonecrest. County officials say the station is being designed with firefighter health, safety and wellness in mind.

Mayor Jazzmin Cobble, and Councilmembers Alecia Washington, George Turner, and Karmesha Smith joined county partners for this important milestone — marking the first addition to the county's fire department in 20 years that is not a replacement for an existing station.

Dear District 5 Residents,

Please be advised that the DeKalb County Police Department will be conducting a nighttime training session at the firing range on Goddard Rd. this Thursday, Oct. 29, with activities expected to conclude by approximately 10:30 PM.

This training is part of the department’s ongoing efforts to ensure our officers are well-prepared to serve and protect our community. While this is a routine exercise, we understand that nighttime activity at the range may be unusual, and we appreciate your understanding.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to my office.

Sincerely,

Councilwoman Karmesha W Smith

There’s no place like Stonecrest, and the word is spreading beyond our city limits.

We caught up with one of our neighboring community members at the Stonecrest Fall Festival to hear about her experience, and she brought the energy.

Now we want to hear from YOU. What was your favorite part of this year’s Fall Festival?
