Are your deals in the proposed city of Greenhaven (SE DeKalb Co)?

DeKalb County has been barraged with a number of new proposed cities, one of which is the (astonishingly boringly named) Greenhaven.  This proposed city covers most of eastern & southern DeKalb County that's not already incorporated, would be the 2nd Largest city in Georgia!! (bigger than Columbus!!) and really doesn't make sense to me.  I own three rentals in 30032, one of the included zip codes, and don't want my properties to be included in a gigantic new baby city.  Cleaning up the county government is a much saner (if seriously challenging) way to go, in my opinion.  If you feel the same way, you can sign a petition at change.org - I do not want my property address to be included in the proposed new city of Greenhaven.

Do you have strong opinions for or against this city movement?  How do you think it will affect real estate investing in the area?
