Mayor Kim Learnard is up for re-election. Read her platform at KimLearnardForMayor.com and be sure to vote on Nov. 4, 2025!
Kim Learnard has served as Peachtree City mayor since 2022. A proven leader who fiercely protects the paths, greenspaces, and villages we all cherish, she is also committed to planning responsibly for our future. Her leadership is why we are ranked one of the Top 10 safest cities in Georgia and Best Small Towns to Raise a Family. In her first term, she brought tax relief, expanded the path system, and eliminated user fees at the splash pad and athletic fields. She fought for 18 new city pickleball courts and upgraded the Riley Field running track. Peachtree City is replacing aging infrastructure, placing an SRO in every elementary school, and filling empty storefronts with thriving new businesses. She successfully blocked apartments in the former Kmart and protects our city from overdevelopment. While GDOT continues its work at Hwy 54/74, she is preparing for next steps on the Hwy 54 corridor and a roundabout at Crosstown Road and Peachtree Parkway. Our community is in the best hands – let’s keep the momentum going!
