The new city's administrative offices will be in Dunwoody, while its municipal court will be in Corporate Square, inside Brookhaven's city limits.
Brookhaven's temporary administrative offices will be located in Dunwoody. On Sunday night, the Brookhaven Commission announced its recommendations for temporary office space.
