In this episode of Macon It, we sit down with Jerry Battle, Macon-Bibb County’s new Neighborhood Program Coordinator, to talk about his role as a boots-on-the-ground connector between residents and local government. Jerry shares how he’s working directly with neighborhoods to listen, build trust, and make sure every voice is heard.

We discuss the importance of neighborhood pride, how stronger communication leads to real results, and what this new role means for the future of community engagement across Macon-Bibb. It’s a conversation about meeting people where they are and building a stronger Macon… together.
