Brookhaven Yes is accusing No City Brookhaven of missing a mandatory state filing deadline. But the No campaign says it still has time to file.
The argument over Brookhaven becoming a city got uglier late Tuesday afternoon. BrookhavenYES sent out an email to its subscribers, claiming that the other side – NoCityBrookhaven – missed a mandatory state deadline for filing campaign disclosures. But NoCityBrookhaven said it has not missed the deadline and has until July 23. According to the state ethics commission, named the Georgia Government Transparency and Campaign Finance Commission, ballot committees – such as those formed around the Brookhaven issue - have to disclose campaign contributions and expenditures.

Russell Mitchell of BrookhavenYES answers five questions from Patch.

Recently, there has been a significant amount of discussion regarding police protection in the proposed new City of Brookhaven. It has been suggested, by some, that the new city will have inadequate police coverage. This conclusion is typically based upon various calculated ratios, which, in the end, do not present a meaningful conclusion (there are too many variables not taken into consideration). Others, for their argument, utilize the numbers outlined within the City of Brookhaven feasibility study, which was conducted by the Carl Vinson Institute (CVI) of Government at the University of Georgia.
