The Tucker Summit Community Improvement District (CID) Board of Directors has announced that Matthew Lee is the sole finalist for executive director of the organization.
Lee, who has served as the executive director of the Tucker-Northlake CID since 2017, will continue his responsibilities for Tucker-Northlake while assuming leadership of the Tucker Summit CID.
“I’m honored by the trust the Tucker Summit CID Board has placed in me, and I’m grateful for the continued support of the Tucker-Northlake CID Board. Each CID has its own Board and set of specific priorities, but we share many of the same challenges and opportunities,” Lee said. “Working more closely together creates new opportunities to better coordinate with the city, county, region and state on the projects that matter to the local community. I believe we can accomplish more together than apart.”
Lee succeeds Emory Morsberger, who will step down from the leadership role to focus on his advocacy for humanitarian assistance in Ukraine.

As executive director, Lee will lead the CID in the advancement of major infrastructure projects, including the safety improvements along Mountain Industrial Boulevard and at the U.S. 78 interchange.
The Tucker Summit CID Board will vote on Lee’s appointment later this month.
The Tucker Summit CID and Tucker-Northlake CID will remain independent when Lee begins the new role, with each governed by its own board of directors elected by the respective commercial property owners.
“The Tucker Summit CID has accomplished a great deal, and Matthew Lee is the right leader to build on the progress we’ve made,” Tucker Summit CID Board Chairman Joey Chapman said. “Matthew understands how to bring people together, establish partnerships and move projects forward. Our Board is focused on protecting the investments our property owners have made in this district, while continuing to improve the environment for business. We believe Matthew will help us take advantage of the opportunities ahead.”
