Rep. Carl Gilliard to Host Road Dedication Event in Honor of Chairman Pete Liakakis Memorial Interchange in Savannah

ATLANTA - State Representative Carl Gilliard (D-Savannah), chair of the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus, will host a road dedication event, in partnership with Chatham County, in honor of the late Chairman Pete Liakakis Memorial Interchange on Thursday, October 10, 2024, at 11 a.m. at the Chatham County Board of Commissioners in Savannah, Georgia.

"Chairman Liakakis was a champion of unity for the community," said Rep. Gilliard. "He volunteered and gave his life to the people of Chatham County. He often stated that 'there is one race and that is the human race, and we are all God's children.'"

During the 2024 legislative session, Rep. Gilliard sponsored House Resolution 1250, which honors the life of Mr. Peter Liakakis and dedicates an interchange in Chatham County in his memory.

There will be a brief program, followed by motorcade to the Chairman Pete Liakakis Memorial Interchange.
