In response to recent community interest and discussion surrounding Flock Safety’s automated license plate reader technology, the Cobb County Police Department will host several community town halls.

These meetings will provide an opportunity to learn how the technology is used and safeguarded by the Cobb County Police Department, address common questions and concerns, and hear directly from community members. The goal is to provide clear information about Cobb County’s policies, safeguards, and use of the technology.

Upcoming Town Hall Dates/Times/Locations:

Milford Recreation Center
Thursday, Aug. 27, 6:30 – 8 p.m.
675 Smyrna Powder Springs Road, Marietta

Just a few days left for Christmas in July.
If this is a tradition for you to do all of your Christmas shopping in the Summer, then now is the time to sponsor your wreaths for Marietta National Cemetery.
Or sponsor a few now, and each month through December 2nd, 2026, and Honor several Fallen Heroes here, in our own community.

Marietta National Cemetery has Fallen Heroes from the Civil War (1865) through the Global War on Terrorism (2012). These are our neighbors and community members, and now it is our responsibility to tell their stories...

The Silver Star is the third highest award that can be received by a member of the US Armed Forces. A total of 18 Silver Star recipients from World Wars I and II are buried at Marietta National Cemetery. Fifteen Silver Star recipients from the Korea and Vietnam conflicts are buried at Marietta National Cemetery; all were killed in action.

Scan the QR Code in the image, click the link below, or call the number in the image. All of these are ways to sponsor Veterans' Wreaths this Holiday Season. We have 18,846 Fallen Heroes at Marietta National Cemetery to remember and honor.
Will you help?
