the meeting every year, in addition to considering the matters described in the

interest to our shareholders. The meeting should be interesting and informative.

         We hope that you will attend the meeting in person, but even if you
plan to do so, we encourage you to please vote your shares ahead of time by
using the enclosed proxy card. This will ensure that your Capitol City
Bancshares stock will be represented at the meeting. If you attend the meeting
and prefer to vote in person, you may do so. The attached proxy statement
explains more about proxy voting. Please read it carefully. Every shareholder's
vote is important, whether you own a few shares or many.

         We look forward to your participation in the annual meeting process.

                                          Sincerely,

                                PROXY STATEMENT
                                      FOR
                        ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
                                  TO BE HELD
                                 JUNE 22, 1999

         This proxy statement is furnished to the shareholders of Capitol City
Bancshares, Inc. in connection with the solicitation of proxies by its Board of
Directors to be voted at the 1999 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and at any
adjoumments thereof (the "Annual Meeting"). The Annual Meeting will be held on
June 22, 1999, at 562 Lee Street, S.W., Atlanta, Georgia, at 5:00 p.m. local
time.

         This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card were mailed or
given to shareholders on or about June 1, 1999.

         As used in this proxy statement, the terms Capitol City Bancshares,
Company, we, our, and us all refer to Capitol City Bancshares, Inc. and its
subsidiaries.

                                    VOTING

GENERAL

         The securities which can be voted at the Annual Meeting consist of
Capitol City Bancshares' $6.00 par value common stock ("Capitol City Bancshares
Stock"), with each share entitling its owner to one vote on each matter
submitted to the stockholders. The record date for determining the holders of
Capitol City Bancshares, Inc. stock who are entitled to notice of and to vote at
the Annual Meeting is May 15, 1999. On the record date, 532,088 shares of
Capitol City Bancshares stock were outstanding and eligible to be voted.

QUORUM AND VOTE REQUIRED

         The presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the outstanding
shares of Capitol City Bancshares stock is necessary to constitute a quorum at
the Annual Meeting. In determining whether a quorum exists at the Annual Meeting
for purposes of all matters to be voted on, all votes "for" or "against" as well
as all abstentions (including votes to withhold authority to vote) will be
counted.
<PAGE>
 
         In voting for the proposal to elect eighteen directors (Proposal No.
1), you may vote in favor of all nominees or withhold your votes as to all or as
to specific nominees. The vote required to approve Proposal No. 1 is governed by
Georgia law and is a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares
entitled to vote, provided a quorum is present. Votes withheld and broker
non-votes will not be counted and will have no effect.

         Our directors and executive officers hold 199,730 shares of Capitol
City Bancshares stock, or approximately 37.54% of all outstanding stock, and we
believe that all of those shares will be voted in favor of both proposals.

PROXIES

         All properly executed proxy cards delivered pursuant to this
solicitation and not revoked will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance
with the directions given. In voting by proxy with regard to the election of
directors, you may vote in favor of all nominees, withhold your votes as to all
nominees or withhold your votes as to specific nominees. In voting by proxy with
regard to the other proposal, you may vote for or against the proposal or
abstain from voting. You should specify your choices on the proxy card. IF NO
SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS ARE GIVEN WITH REGARD TO THE MATTERS TO BE VOTED UPON, THE
SHARES REPRESENTED BY A SIGNED PROXY CARD WILL BE VOTED "FOR" THE PROPOSALS
LISTED ON THE PROXY CARD. If any other matters properly come before the Annual
Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote upon such matters according to
their judgment.

         All proxy cards delivered pursuant to this solicitation are revocable
at any time before they are voted by giving written notice to our Secretary,
Kaneta R. Lott, 562 Lee Street, S.W., Atlanta, Georgia 30311, by delivering a
later dated proxy card, or by voting in person at the Annual Meeting.

         All expenses incurred in connection with the solicitation of proxies
will be borne by the Company. Solicitation may take place by mail, telephone,
telegram, or personal contact by our directors, officers and regular employees
of the Company without additional compensation.

                                PROPOSAL NO. 1
                             ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

         Our 1998-1999 Board of Directors consisted of twenty members, nineteen

of Directors shall consist of not less than five nor more than twenty-five
persons, with the exact number to be fixed and determined from time to time by
resolution of the Board of Directors, or by resolution of the shareholders at
any annual or special meeting of shareholders. The Board 

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
 
of Directors has voted that the Board consist of eighteen members for the
Company's ensuing fiscal year. The term of office for directors is one year or
until the next Annual Meeting and thereafter until their successors are elected
and qualified.

         The Board has nominated the following persons for submission to the
shareholders for election for a one-year term expiring at the 2000 annual
meeting or until their successors are elected and qualified.

         The following table lists the name and ages of all directors, nominee
directors and executive officers of the Company, indicates all positions and
offices with the Company held by each such person, states the term of office as
a director or principal officer and the period during which such person has

director or executive officer. There are no arrangements or understandings
between such persons and any other person pursuant to which that person was

<PAGE>
 
event the persons named as proxies will vote the shares represented by all valid

                 DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE COMPANY

         Information as of December 31, 1998 about each of the Directors and
Officers of the Company is set forth in the table beginning on page 3.

         George G. Andrews and Kaneta R. Lott are the only executive officers of
Capitol City Bancshares and were previously reported as nominees for election as
directors.

         J. Al Cochran serves as a director of Independence State Bank of Powder
Springs, Georgia, a company with a class of securities registered pursuant to
Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or subject to the requirement
of Section 15(d) of such Act or any company registered as an investment company
under the Investment Company of 1940.

         Other than Mr. Cochran, no other director, executive officer, or
nominee for such positions held directorships in any reporting company other
than the Company during 1998.

         There are no family relationships among directors, executive officers,
or persons nominated or chosen by the Company to become directors or executive
officers. The Company and the Bank do not separately compensate their directors.
The directors are not compensated for attending the monthly board meetings of
the Bank and various other committee meetings.

                MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

         Our Board of Directors conducts regular meetings, generally on a
monthly basis and also conducts some of its business through the committees
described below. Our Board of Directors met 12 times during the year, and each
director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the full Board and of the
committees on which he or she serves, except Keith Evans attended 50% of the
board meetings. Sarah Sistrunk attended 25% of the board meetings and was on a
leave of absence for the balance of the board meetings.

         The Board of Directors has established a number of committees to assist
it in the discharge of its duties. The executive committee makes and reviews
policies and decisions in connection with personnel, compensation, nominations
of directors and strategic matters. It also entertains shareholder nominees for
directors.

                                      -5-
<PAGE>
 
         The audit committee recommends the engagement of the Bank's independent
certified auditors, serves as liaison with those independent auditors on behalf
of the Bank, and is responsible for reviewing the audit reports of the Bank's
independent auditors.

         The loan committee exercises primary responsibility for the monitoring
of the Bank's lending functions and must approve any loan in excess of the
lending officer's designated lending limits.

         The assets/liability committee manages the purchase, pricing and timing
of the Bank's assets and liabilities.

                              DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

         Directors of the Company received no compensation in 1998.

Executive Employment Agreements.


         The Company is not aware of any compensatory plan or arrangement with
respect to any individual named in the summary compensation table for the latest
fiscal year which will result from the resignation, retirement or other
termination of such individual's employment with the Company or from a change in
control of the Company or a change in the individual's responsibilities
following a change in control.

         No individual during 1998 for whom compensation information is
disclosed in the above summary compensation table received any option or stock
appreciation rights, exercised any option or stock appreciation rights, had
outstanding as of December 31, 1998 

                                      -8-

any unexercised options or stock appreciation rights, or received any award
under a long term incentive plan.

                      OTHER COMPENSATION AND BENEFIT PLANS

         The Company provides a 401(k) plan for qualified employees to defer a
portion of their salary with matching contributions from the Company made at the
discretion of the Board of Directors.


                          TRANSACTIONS WITH THE COMPANY

         The Company's directors and executive officers, and certain business
organizations and individuals associated therewith, have been customers of and
have had banking transactions with the Company and are expected to continue such
relationships in the future. Pursuant to such transactions, the Bank's directors
and executive officers from time to time have borrowed funds from the Bank for
various business and personal reasons. Extensions of credit made by the Bank to
its directors and executive officers have been made in the ordinary course of
business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and
collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with
other persons and do not involve more than a normal risk of collectibility or
present other unfavorable features.

                                LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         There are no "material" pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary
routine litigation incidental to the business of the Company, to which the
Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any of their property
is subject. Material proceedings are defined as claims for damages where the
amount involved, exclusive of interest and cost, exceeds ten percent of the
current assets of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

         During the previous five years, no director or executive officer was
the subject of a legal proceeding (as defined below) that is material to an
evaluation of the ability or integrity of any director or executive officer. A
"legal proceeding" includes: (a) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any
business of which such person was a general partner or executive prior to that
time; (b) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or subject to a pending
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (c)
any order, judgment, or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, or any
Federal or State authority permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring,
suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of commodities
business, securities or banking activities; and (d) any finding by a court of
competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Securities and Exchange
Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission of a violation of a

                                      -9-
<PAGE>
 
federal or state securities or commodities law (such finding having not been
reversed, suspended or vacated).

                  COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE 1934 ACT

         Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and regulations of
the SEC require our executive officers and directors and persons who
beneficially own more than ten percent of any class of our equity securities, as
well as certain affiliates of such persons to file initial reports of ownership
of any equity securities of Capitol City Bancshares, Inc. and subsequent reports
of changes in ownership of such securities with the SEC. Such persons also are
required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a)
reports they file. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments
thereto furnished to the Company under Rule 16a-3(d) during 1998 and Form 5 and
amendments thereto furnished to the Company during 1998, no person who, at any
time during 1998, was a director, officer or beneficial owner of more than 10%
of any class of equity securities of the Company failed to file on a timely
basis any reports required by Section 16(a) during the 1998 fiscal year or
previously.

                         INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

         The firm of Mauldin & Jenkins, LLC, Albany, Georgia, has served as our
independent accountants each year since 1994, and we consider them to be well
qualified. Our Board of Directors has selected Mauldin & Jenkins, LLC to serve
as our independent accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1999.
Representatives of that firm will be present at the Annual Meeting and will have
the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so. They will be
available to answer your questions at that time.

                     SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2000 MEETING

         Shareholder proposals that are intended to be presented at our 2000
Meeting of Shareholders must be received by us no later than February 1, 2000,
in order to be included in our proxy statement and related proxy materials for
that meeting. Any such proposal must comply with the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

             OTHER MATTERS WHICH MAY COME BEFORE THE ANNUAL MEETING

         Our Board of Directors knows of no matters other than those referred to
in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders which may properly

         Upon receipt of a written request, we will furnish, without charge, any
owner of common stock of the company a copy of its annual report to the
Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K (the "10-K") for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1998, including financial statements and the schedules
thereto. Copies of exhibits to the 10-K are also available upon specific request
and payment of a reasonable charge for reproduction. Such requests should be
