Good morning, Decatur.

DeKalb firefighters from Station Three fixed the flag pole and raised a new American flag at Harborview Decatur nursing home on July 4 after responding to a call during a medical emergency— the act brought a boost of patriotism and unity to residents.

The City of Decatur announced that current job opportunities are now listed online and applicants must follow detailed instructions—emailed resumes will not be accepted—and application information will be kept on file for six months.

On March 3, 2025, the city commission in Decatur updated the noise ordinance after a public process.

The rule, which became effective on July 1, sets limits of 65 dB(a) from 7:00 a.m. to 9:59 p.m. plus 60 dB(a) from 10:00 p.m. to 6:59 a.m. and restricts equipment use during certain hours while allowing exceptions for city work and approved events.

Decatur officials announced that property taxes will rise soon — the increase is designed to support essential city services, and homeowners are advised to review the official notice for details on the change.

DeKalb County will host a free job fair at Georgia Piedmont Technical College in Clarkston on July 10 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.—county representatives from public safety, healthcare, and various departments will conduct onsite interviews for over 500 paid positions.
