September 14, 2023
The Atlanta REALTORS® Political Action Committee (ARPAC) recently voted to support two incumbent city council members in their first round of candidate recommendations for the 2023 municipal election season. The PAC can supports incumbents who have been real estate advocates without screening their opponents.
Dr. Catherine Rowell, District 1 South Fulton City Council and Sarah Beeson, District 1 Roswell City Council received the PAC’s support because of their support of real estate issues in their respective cities.
While Dr. Rowell is running for her third term on the South Fulton Council, Sarah is running for her first 4-year term on the Roswell City Council. Sarah was elected to complete the remaining one-year term for Post 1 seat on Roswell City Council in the December, 2022 Special Election.
Dr. Rowell was part of the City’s inaugural council and served as the City’s first Mayor Pro Tem. Dr. Rowell has focused on developing the city, especially in her district. As a result, the city has more retail options, new residential developments and new businesses. More about Dr. Rowell.
Even before she was elected to the council, Sarah worked with ACBR and ARA to maintain development options in the City of Roswell. Since she was elected Sarah has focused on economic development.
