Social Circle Citizen’s Academy
Introduction
The Social Circle Citizen’s Academy was created to give the residents and corporate citizens of
Social Circle a chance to see, understand and interact with all aspects of your local government.
Participants will learn about the structure of local government and how it relates to the State and
Federal government. Elected officials, appointed advisory boards, and City staff will provide insight
into the resources and programs offered by the City of Social Circle.
Participants will have the opportunity to delve into City finances, regulations, and the public
processes associated with City government functions. Specifically, sessions will cover the structure of
the City, the Comprehensive Plan and Codes and Ordinances, Municipal Court, Boards and
Commissions, Public Works and Utilities, Finance Budget and Taxation, Public Safety and Transit,
and Zoning, Permits and Code Enforcement. Classes will be a combination of lectures, tours, and
interactive activities.
Participants in this program will meet from 6 pm to 8 pm at City Hall one day per month
beginning in September through April, for eight (8) sessions. A mock Council meeting on a topic
chosen by the class will be held on the last session. A graduation ceremony will be held after the
completion of the program at the regular May meeting of Mayor and Council.
Participation in the program is free. Applicants are required to be eighteen (18) years of age
and must provide their own transportation to and from training. Acceptance into the program is subject
to review of the applicant’s background, including a criminal history inquiry. A maximum of 10
applicants will be accepted into the program.

this program will enhance communication and connection between the Social Circle government and
the community it serves.
