adel deemed "visionary city"

Forward-thinking leaders help make their communities welcoming for generations to come.
GeorgiaTrend.com

Cities that are successful at luring residents and visitors all have one thing in common – a vision for making that happen. This year, the Georgia Municipal Association (GMA) and Georgia Trend have teamed up to honor nine cities with the inaugural Visionary City Award. 
​
The award spotlights cities that have exhibited success in planning and forward-thinking in the areas of civic engagement and collaboration. 

“It’s our privilege to honor the elected officials, city staff and community leaders of these nine cities who’ve led these initiatives and projects,” says GMA Executive Director Larry Hanson. “These cities exemplify what it means to be forward-thinking for their residents and generations to come and also serve as inspiring examples of civility, collaboration and creating communities of positive change across Georgia.”

These cities are grouped by population size – Large (more than 25,000), Medium (5,000 to 24,999) and Small (fewer than 4,999) – with projects that include public events, a rec center and park that honors a community leader, a city center, a data center, a creative district, an auditorium and broadband.

The goal of each of these projects? To foster healthy working relationships and make the communities places where people truly love to live and work. Read more
