While in office, Robb has brought efficiency to county operations and procurement procedures and became known as the “taxpayers’ watchdog” for his scrutiny of the County's spending and his management of the budget process. While he was Council President, he was a strong supporter of tax relief for the elderly, including the reduction of sanitation fees, and an increase in homestead exemptions.
As Chairman, here are Robb's priorities:
Fulton County is the largest of the 159 counties in Georgia and is home to our Capitol City – Atlanta. Fulton County continues to be highly diverse, welcoming any and all walks of life. We must continue to provide the leadership to ensure the continued growth, development and prosperity for everyone in the county, region and the State of Georgia.
The Board of Commissioners has prioritized the operations of our justice system during COVID-19, and we immediately sought to use the American Rescue and Recovery Act funds to resolve this issue.
Fulton County has new opportunities to grow its transit system and fight back against the traffic that clogs our community, especially as Fulton is the hub of arts and culture, and access to the arts has never been greater.
Chairman Pitts commits to ensuring that monies approved by the voters for improvements are spent wisely and in a timely manner. His focus is on the safety, security, and dignity of all residents to lead quality lives in Fulton County.
Chairman Robb Pitts sponsored new legislation to immediately begin to phase out the use of single-use plastics and substitute those products with non-plastic alternatives to help reduce Fulton County's carbon footprint.
Animal services are a high priority for residents. By a unanimous vote, the Board of Commissioners agreed to build a new animal shelter in Fulton County, replacing the current shelter that has been in place since the 1970s.
Chairman Pitts' focus is on the best quality of living for Fulton County residents, which means sustainable funding and improvements to critical social services offered by the county to residents who need them most.
