Congratulations to our August Employee of the Month, Veronica Chaffin! Veronica has been with the City for three years and is an Administrative Specialist II in the Community Development department.

She provides dependable support for four boards, Mayor and Council items, and other key departmental responsibilities. Her attention to detail, accountability, responsiveness, and commitment to excellence make her a trusted resource for both her colleagues and the community.

Veronica is also known for the positive spirit she brings to her department. Whether celebrating coworkers, remembering birthdays, organizing fun activities, or simply making others feel included and appreciated, she helps create a welcoming and supportive workplace. One colleague fittingly described her as the “social glue” of the department.

Roswell Remembers September 11

This morning, the City of Roswell gathered to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

More than 100 community members, first responders, and City leaders came together in remembrance of the nearly 3,000 lives lost, to honor the courage and sacrifice of those who answered the call, and to reflect on a day that forever changed our nation.

Twenty-five years later, Roswell remembers.

We will never forget.

🌳 A healthier pond. Better trails. More to enjoy at Roswell Area Park.

Today, the City of Roswell cut the ribbon on the newly improved Roswell Area Park Pond! 🎉

The nearly $3.1 million project gives residents a refreshed community space built for the future, with improved trails, upgraded stormwater infrastructure, a reconstructed pond embankment, new landscaping and native plantings, and habitat improvements that support a healthier pond ecosystem.

It’s another way Roswell’s voter-approved 2022 Bond Program is turning community investment into improvements residents can see, use and enjoy.

Take a closer look at the transformation:
