Executive Director’s Report (Stacee)
Updates:
Brian Joseph REALTOR® Ansley Real Estate Christie’s International – KACCB selected
as a nonprofit to receive percentage from buyer/seller sales.
Stacee will be reaching out the board for some information to set up @accgov.com
emails for board members.
o ACCGov is in the process of providing @accgov.com email addresses to board,

allow for easier open records issues, email backup capabilities, and to help
prevent personal email addresses from being used in official ACCGov operations.
