State of the City

In his fourth State of the City address, Mayor Derek Norton will share updates on city-wide developments, a 2023 year-in-review, and plans for the future of Smyrna. With the downtown greenspace redesign complete and preparations well underway for more downtown additions, Smyrna continues to have momentum as a growing, thriving suburb of metro Atlanta.

Derek was first elected Mayor of the City of Smyrna in 2019.  He previously served four years as the Ward 1 representative on the Smyrna City Council and was re-elected as Mayor at the end of 2023 for four more years.  He has served on several local boards and committees in the City including the Board of Directors for Keep Smyrna Beautiful and the Smyrna Business Association, the Executive Committee for the Smyrna Vision initiative, the Board of Trustees for Smyrna First United Methodist church, the Board of Trustees for St. Benedict’s Episcopal School, and served three terms as president of his neighborhood homeowners association.

Derek and his wife Laura founded Support Smyrna, a local non-profit that helps children, families, veterans, seniors, and others in need in the Smyrna community. 

Derek is also very involved in local Smyrna schools and sponsors various student groups and teams across the city annually.
