On Thursday, May 16, 2024, the Council for Quality Growth, in partnership with Clayton County Government, Clayton Chamber of Commerce, and the ATL Airport Chamber hosted Chairman Jeffrey E. Turner’s 12th and final State of Clayton County Address. Over 400 Council and Chamber members, elected officials, businesses, residents, county staff, and partners of Clayton County gathered to hear updates from Turner as he prepares to leave the post and turn it over to new hands. The lunch was presented by Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and The Development Authority of Clayton County. The event was completely sold-out at the Morrow Center for the Chairman’s outgoing address.
Chairman Turner made quite the entrance, being led to his stage by the Jonesboro High School Majestic Marching Cardinals. Turner took office in January off 2013 and is wrapping up his 3rd term as Chairman of Clayton County’s Board of Commissioners. Due to term limitations, Turner cannot run again. With a long career in law enforcement, he is vying for the Sherriff’s seat next.
The Council commends Chairman Turner’s leadership and vision for Clayton County, and we are proud to have hosted all 12 of his annual State of Clayton County addresses.
