Administration
Thank you for visiting our City’s website and welcome to our “virtual” home. To fully appreciate our heritage, our history and our people, please take time to visit at your earliest convenience and enjoy true southern hospitality at its best.
The City of Adel enacted a Council/Manager form of government in 1970 to administer the ordinances and policies of the Mayor and Council. This form of local government remains in place today and has been very effective in the daily administration and operations of the City of Adel. The City Manager is appointed and serves at the pleasure of the Mayor and Council. Specific duties include preparation of the annual budget for presentation and adoption by the elected officials following public hearings, administration of personnel, execution of approved contracts, supervision of all City operations including public safety, public works and utility departments and present financial reports to the elected officials. If I or my staff can be of assistance to you, please do not hesitate to call us at (229) 896-4504 or visit our administrative offices at 112 N. Parrish Avenue, Adel, Georgia. |
