Sandy Springs became Georgia’s first new city in almost 50 years with its incorporation in 2005. Its model for operations, a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) in which city services outside of public safety are conducted through private contractors, is recognized around the world for its efficiencies and financial success.  Since the incorporation of Sandy Springs, the cities of Dunwoody, Johns Creek, Brookhaven, Peachtree Corners and Milton also have incorporated in Georgia – each using a form of the PPP model.
