There’ll be a Georgia ver sion of creme brulee some days, but she still plans to have traditional favorites was wide enough for fire trucks and school buses. She also noted the subdivi sion also drains through her property in two places. “I believe this issue deserves further consideration and due deliberation,” she said. “Perry was unconcerned since we were not constitu ents,” she added. County Director of Administration Steve Engle said the county’s objections were sent to the city and the one annexation request came back and received approval as PUD by the commission ers.

When asked by Commissioner Larry Thomson about the silt fence and detention pond and grassing of the pond, McDannald said the site had not been maintained. She had a solution she said has been enacted by other counties, in Virginia and in neighboring Pulaski County. “On agricultural land, there is only one house per five acres,” she said. “If someone wants a family compound, there can be three houses but the remaining 10 acres must be greenspace.
