Coweta County at Shenandoah Opens to the Public on March 20
Coweta County is excited to announce that Coweta County at Shenandoah will open to the public on Monday, March 20.
Coweta County at Shenandoah, the former AMC Theater located at 87 Newnan Station Drive, will house the Tax Commissioner’s Office, which includes the Property Tax and Tag Office, and the Elections & Voter Registration Office. Two state agencies, including the Department of Driver Services (DDS) and the Department of Veterans Service, will also relocate to this facility by summer 2023.

The services provided to citizens at this new facility will include tag renewals, vehicle registrations and titles, pay property taxes, register to vote, and early vote. There will also be a new drive-thru option for the Tax Commissioner/Tag Office services to better serve our citizens.
“We are thrilled to provide our citizens with a relevant facility that enhances services and provides easier access and additional park- ing,” says Chairman John Reidelbach. “We are incredibly grateful for our architect Joe Gardner, his team, and construction partner J&R Construction & Development, who worked diligently with us to expand and renovate this facility to help serve our growing population.”
As background, Coweta County purchased the 6.22-acre parcel in July of 2021 following an internal needs assessment. Two predominate space needs came about including a desire for expansion of the Elections & Voter Registration and the Tag/Tax Offices.
To prepare for the relocation, the Tax Commissioner’s Office, which includes the Property Tax and Tag Office, will be closed on Friday, March 17. Citizens can renew their auto tags online or using the kiosk at the Kroger located at 1751 Newnan Crossing Boulevard during this time.
