History
The area was first settled by Woodland Era indigenous people. In the 1950s, real estate developers purchased over 12,000 acres in Fayette County to build a planned community. Peachtree City was chartered March 9, 1959. In 1957, Flat Creek was dammed to create Lake Peachtree.In 1974, after the city petitioned the Georgia General Assembly to amend existing laws regarding motorized cart use on city streets, Governor Jimmy Carter signed legislation exempting carts from inspection, motor vehicle registration and certain other equipment requirements for motor cars. This legislation paved the way for the legal use of golf carts in Peachtree City. Since then, the city’s network of multi-use paths has steadily expanded, now encompassing over 100 miles (160 km) and serving as a key feature of local transportation.
In 2001, the city was designated a "Tree City USA" by the Arbor Day Foundation. In 2013, the 650-acre (2.6 km2) Lake McIntosh opened for public use.
