ATLANTA — Colquitt County Commissioner Marc DeMott was recently reappointed and sworn in to serve on the 2019-2020 Association County Commissioners of Georgia (ACCG) Board of Managers to represent the association’s District 10.

DeMott was sworn in by Gov. Brian Kemp with other board members during a special luncheon that took place during the 2019 ACCG Annual Conference at the Savannah Convention Center in Chatham County.

This is the third year that DeMott has been elected by his peers to serve on this governing board representing all county governments in the state of Georgia. The 10th District is comprised of the following counties in the Southwest Georgia region: Baker, Calhoun, Colquitt, Decatur, Dougherty, Early, Grady, Lee, Miller, Mitchell, Seminole, Terrell, Thomas and Worth.

“Once again, I am honored and humbled to be chosen to represent the citizens of District 10 at the state level on this board that promotes leadership, cost savings and legislative advocacy for every Georgia citizen,” DeMott said. “I look forward to working with newly elected President Billy Pittard and other additions to the board to keep Georgia as the model for local government throughout the nation. 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.”
