Peachtree Corners Ballot Committee (PCBC) is committed to leveling the playing field. PCBC is an all-volunteer group of concerned citizens in Peachtree Corners, committed to watching over the new city government and ensuring it is something truly unique in government - forever inexpensive and unobtrusive to its citizens. We intend to hold all candidates and eventual city officials to the promises of a City-lite government.
The PCBC invites all candidates to submit a bio along with answers to our standard candidate questions. We invite everyone to participate in a podcast interview to be included on this site.
