The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Tuesday, June 27, 2017, has filed a petition for its Edward R. Roybal Campus on Clifton Road to be annexed by the City of Atlanta.
CDC filed the petition after careful consideration. Annexation by the City of Atlanta allows CDC to continue working with DeKalb County’s critical response capability while linking to Atlanta’s infrastructure and municipal services.
Next steps in the process include the City’s normal public meeting process for annexations. The annexation is expected to be effective in Fall 2017.
