City of Johns Creek
During the 1980s & 1990s a sizable amount of the white collar, professional population that immigrated to Metro Atlanta for its low cost of living and high employment base settled in the Johns Creek community.
By 2000, a grassroots movement to incorporate the Johns Creek area into a city was slowly developing. It was only one of three main communities north of the Chattahoochee in Metro Atlanta that was not incorporated by that time. (Today all of Fulton County north of the Chattahoochee River is incorporated.)
Following Sandy Springs' successful incorporation in 2005, a legislative campaign was begun to incorporate the Johns Creek community. House Bill 1321 was passed, signed by Governor Sonny Perdue in March 2006 and approved by the residents of northeast Fulton in a July 2006 voter referendum.
In November 2006, the City's first elected officials were voted into office, with the City of Johns Creek becoming official December 1, 2006.
