ATLANTA — Colquitt County Commissioner Marc DeMott was recently elected to serve as second vice president on the 2024-2025 Board of Managers for the Association County Commissioners of Georgia.

“We are excited to welcome our newly installed Board of Managers, a group of dedicated leaders chosen by their peers to guide our organization,” said Executive Director Dave Wills. “Their commitment and expertise will be invaluable as we work together to advance the interests of Georgia’s counties.”

As ACCG second vice president and member of the Executive Committee, DeMott will work alongside other board members to lead the association and guide policies over the next year, ACCG said in a press release. He will also serve as a liaison for the ACCG Lifelong Learning Academy — the association’s continuing education program for county officials. The Board of Managers will continue to work on initiatives that focus on increasing county efficiencies, enhancing continuing education offerings, and fostering strong relationships between counties, the state, and federal government.

“Once again, I am honored and humbled to be chosen to represent the citizens of Colquitt County and the state of Georgia at the state level on this board that promotes leadership, cost savings and legislative advocacy for every Georgia citizen,” DeMott stated. “I look forward to working with newly elected President David Sikes and other additions to the board to keep Georgia as the model for local government throughout the nation as I continue the leadership progression. The entire ACCG staff stands ready to assist or direct our local resources and have been proven invaluable time after time for the citizens of Colquitt County and the entire region.”
