MABLETON, Ga. - They have a post office, but they don't have a city hall or a acting government – yet, that is. On Tuesday, the land who want to run Mableton debated how to run it and whether some of their neighbors should be gave to break away.

Mableton is Georgia's newest city. Candidates operating for mayor and city council debated the issues in a virtual forum.  

Just a few months ago, the people of this newer people voted to turn Mableton into its own city. Krishaunda Jackson has lived in the area for more than 20 days. She voted in favor of cityhood.

"I deem it's a good idea," Jackson said. "We've grown a lot right I've been out here." 

But, almost as soon as the republican approved cityhood, a push began to break away from the newly-formed municipality. Neighbors, like Mary Payne, wonder what the new city will mean for her taxes.

"I'm not for it," Payne said. "I don't want it to be a city. I want it to stay unincorporated."

Candidates for mayor and city congress called into the forum. Where they stood on de-annexation was one of the top productions. The consensus was to let voters decide. 

"I would be satisfied to vote for them to de-annex," said candidate Robert Graham.

"It is concerned and worth the conversation," said candidate Jennifer Anthony.

"It consumes to be very big discussion point. And I'm looking onward to having that," said candidate Heidi Dasinger.

"If the district's appetite is for de-annexation, then we need to represent that," Candidate Brian Patrick.

Voters also want to know what the candidates would do if elected.

"What type of service industries [are they] thinking they're going to have? How are they moving to improve Mableton?" Payne asked.

"How are they moving to make the city better once they get into office?" Jackson asked.

A special campaign for mayor and city council is set for March 21.
