Who represents you

You're in Macon-Bibb County, Commission District 9. These are the people and boards that make decisions where you live — and they're not all the same office. Here's who they are, and what each one actually controls.

Your county commissioner is Brendalyn Bailey. Your schools are run by the Bibb County School District, and your water comes from the Macon Water Authority — both separate from the county commission.

What they actually do

Your commissioner is one of nine members of the Macon-Bibb County Commission. Together with the Mayor, they set the county's budget and property tax rate and decide local policy. Each commissioner represents one district — yours — and also votes on county-wide matters.

Your commissioner and the commission control
  • Approving the county budget and setting the property tax (millage) rate
  • Passing local ordinances and county policy
  • Zoning, land use, and development decisions
  • Funding for roads, drainage, and infrastructure
  • Funding for the Sheriff's Office, fire, and other county services
  • Parks, recreation, and county facilities
  • Approving county contracts and appointments
For everything else, here's who actually decides

In Macon-Bibb, a lot of what people blame on “the county” is run by a separate board or authority. Here's who really controls the stuff residents ask about most.

My water bill went up — or there's a sewer or stormwater problem
Macon Water Authority

A separate, independently elected utility — not the county commission. It sets water, sewer, and stormwater rates and runs the pipes on its own.

Where to start: Macon Water Authority. Your Water Authority district representative is listed under “Who represents you” below.
Something about my kid's school — zones, calendar, or closings
Bibb County School District

Run by a separately elected Board of Education with its own budget and its own school tax. The county commission does not run the schools.

Where to start: Bibb County School District, or your Board of Education member.
There's a vacant or run-down property next door
Macon-Bibb Code Enforcement & the Land Bank Authority

Code Enforcement handles violations and unsafe structures; the Land Bank Authority works to put vacant lots back into use. The commission sets the county's blight policy and the blight tax rate.

Where to start: Report it through Macon-Bibb 311 / SeeClickFix. Your commissioner's office is a good place to follow up if it stalls.
A rezoning, a new development, or a land-use change near me
Planning & Zoning Commission, then the County Commission

Planning & Zoning reviews the proposal and makes a recommendation. Your county commissioner and the full commission cast the binding vote — so this is one where your commissioner really does decide.

Where to start: Macon-Bibb Planning & Zoning, and your commissioner (listed below).
A bus route, a stop, or the fare changed
Macon Transit Authority

A separate authority that sets bus routes and fares. The commission does not run the buses.

Where to start: Macon Transit Authority.
Police, the jail, or I need a deputy on my street
Bibb County Sheriff's Office

Since consolidation, the elected Sheriff is the county's law-enforcement office. The commission funds it but does not run day-to-day policing.

Where to start: Bibb County Sheriff's Office non-emergency line. Call 911 for emergencies.
My property tax bill
Tax Assessors, the Tax Commissioner, and the rate-setters

The Board of Tax Assessors sets your property's value; the Tax Commissioner sends and collects the bill; the county commission and the school board each set a millage (tax) rate. No single office owns the whole bill.

Where to start: Board of Tax Assessors for your valuation; the Tax Commissioner for the bill itself.
Public or assisted housing
Macon Housing Authority

A federally chartered agency that runs public and assisted housing. It operates independently and is not part of city or county government.

Where to start: Macon Housing Authority.
