Organizations behind the pro-and anti-cityhood movements in DeKalb County have reported raising over $80,000 for their respective causes, and spending tens of thousands on their respective campaigns.

The campaign forms are now available on the DeKalb County elections website and Decaturish is still sifting through them. You can see those forms by clicking here.

The election is Nov. 3.

The organizations filing forms are:

– LaVista Hills YES, and the LaVista Hills Alliance, supporters of the LaVista Hills cityhood proposal

– Tucker 2015, which supports the Tucker Cityhood proposal

– DeKalb Strong, the organization fighting against cityhood proposals in DeKalb County.

A note about DeKalb Strong. Originally the group filed as a non-candidate committee, which had earlier filing deadlines than the cityhood groups, which filed as ballot committees. DeKalb Strong treasurer Ron McCauley told Decaturish he has since registered DeKalb Strong as a ballot committee for conformity’s sake. DeKalb Strong’s form combines more recent donations with earlier donations disclosed on the state ethics website.

Here are some of the top donors for each organization:
