In 2008, Bob Ott â a county planning commissioner and former head of the East Cobb Civic Association â ran for a seat on the countyâs governing board. His message: âTo be a true voice for the people,â he recalled in a recent interview.
Three terms and 12 years later, Ott is stepping down as District 2 Cobb commissioner, having accomplished what he set out to do and then some, he said.
Over his terms, he started a newsletter and regularly hosted town halls, helped negotiate the deal that brought the Atlanta Braves to Cobb County and, most recently, negotiated the $150 million redevelopment of Cumberland Mall.
