SYLVANIA - "A mayor needs to be smart, fair, polite, and a good listener," wrote Stephen Thompson of Sylvania in his winning essay for the "If I Were Mayor" essay contest. He continues, "If I were mayor I would try to be all these things." Cities across Georgia were encouraged to celebrate Georgia Cities Week this year in April designated by the Georgia Municipal Association.
