Representatives of the City of Dawsonville are heading to court once more in an effort to recover the salary and benefits paid to former Mayor James Grogan after a vote by council to remove him from office. The city council voted May 15, 2017 to remove Grogan from the mayor seat after allegations of wrongdoing, including misuse of city funds and violation of the city charter. Because Grogan filed an appeal of the decision with the superior court soon after, he was reinstated in his elected capacity and continued to accrue salary and benefits.
