PDK Advisory Board position available for citizen participation.

PDK Flight Path

My friend and former President of the Dunwoody North Civic Asociation, Mr. David Fowler has served on the Peachtree DeKalb Airport Advisory Board since 2002 where he advises on airport issues from a local citizen perspective.  Mr. Fowler recently married and moved outside DeKalb County, therefore, he will need to step down from the board where he has lobbied for many years to limit airplane noise on behalf of our community.

Mr. Fowler believes it is critical for us to help DeKalb Commissioner Kathie Gannon find someone who can walk the line between citizen and government and give Kathie valuable feedback when needed. The meetings are the 2nd Monday of each month and average about an hour each. The airport management usually presents issues of concern and the public is afforded time for comment each month. The AAB then makes recommendations to the commissioners.

If anyone is interested in serving on the committee, Commissioner Kathie Gannon can be reached directly by email at kgannon@dekalbcountyga.gov and if someone wants to talk to Mr. Fowler directly about the duties of position I can connect you - just reach out to me.

Finally, I would like to thank Mr. David Fowler for his many years of tirelessly serving our community and I wish him and his bride many years of happiness.
