Before being re-constituted to fit the holdings of former Gov. Roy Barnes, the South Cobb Redevelopment Authority was unique in the sense that the board consisted of a number of people elected by homeowners and a number of people elected by business owners with the chair being appointed by Cobb Commissioners.

The new configuration is all appointed by a number of elected officials whose districts touch the boundary.

In this 7 minute segment from the 12/17 meeting of Cobb Commissioners, Cobb Chair Tim Lee makes a motion to make appointments to the board.

In the comments, Commissioner Lisa Cupid, in whose district the land governed by the SCRA exists, begins to reveal part of what is known as "The Cobb Way".
