Commerce council member Mark Fitzpatrick was elected to the board of directors of the Georgia Municipal Association (GMA) during the association’s annual meeting in Savannah June 27.

Fitzpatrick is the new president of GMA’s Fifth District, which includes cities in the counties of Jackson, Madison, Barrow, Elbert, Clarke, Oglethorpe, Greene, Newton, Jasper, Walton and Oconee.

“We are pleased to have council member Fitzpatrick taking on this leadership position,” said GMA executive director Jim Higdon. “He’s well respected by his colleagues, and I’m sure he’ll provide great leadership to the cities in his district.”

Based in Atlanta, GMA is a voluntary non-profit organization that provides legislative advocacy, educational, employee benefit and technical assistance to its 500 member cities.
