Do you have something to say about public transportation available to Cobb Senior Citizens? Here's your chance to ask the Cobb Directors of Transportation and Cobb Senior Services how much of the County's budget is being allocated to meet the travel needs of Seniors. You'll also hear about the proposed Cobb Mobility (30-year) SPLOST tax to be voted on in this year's General Election and how it affects Seniors. Additionally, paid members will have the chance to vote for volunteers who will lead the Senior Council this year. (You can meet Senior Council leaders in person at our Meet and Greet on Friday, March 8th also showing on this webpage.) Please read the notice in its entirety. The event is FREE but you must register here by clicking the "REGISTER HERE" button.
