LOCAL HISTORY
Continuing with this issue, past newspaper front pages will highlight local news and history from Winder and Barrow County. This front page is from
the Dec. 28,1966 issue of The Winder News.
Station continued from 1A
Arrest continued from 1A
Off Systems’ permit was
out of the office and did
not respond to a call to his
cell phone.
A property owner in the
park, Robert Wall, who
owns Cable East, a fiber
optic company, told coun
cil at its December work
session and regular meet
ing that he appreciates its
latest stance on the issue.
He also said he has
retained an attorney to
represent him.
Wall said the zoning of
M-l for the industrial park
does not allow a transfer
station in the park. He
also raised the question of
covenants for the park.
Roll-Off Systems said
in its application that it
has spent $295,000 on
the project "in substantial
reliance on assurance by
local officials.”
The company bought
the property, which is
more than seven acres.
The city council voted
in March “unbeknownst
to the applicant” to
“amend the Statham City
Code to remove ‘transfer
station’ use as a permitted
use from the zoning ordi
nance."
The application for the
grading permit includes a
timeline of events from
the company’s view.
The first listing is for
April-May 2015 and says,
“Prior to the applicants’
purchase of the proper
ty, the applicant met
with Mayor Bridges and
Mr. (Randy) Gordon on
several occasions to dis
cuss using the property
as a transfer station. The
mayor and Mr. Gordon
were supportive of the
use.”
The timeline also refers
in several dates to con
tacts with the Georgia
Environmental Protection
Division and with the
Federal Environmental
Management Agency.
The beginning of the
amended application says
the company is respond
ing to comments the city
made on Nov. 22. One
comment is that “all ref
erence to the transfer sta
tion in verbiage and/or
design must be removed
from plans before permit
is issued.”
The company respond
ed that it has “a vested
right to use its property
for a transfer station.
It added, "Although the
Statham zoning code has
changed, the applicant has
acquired a vested right
under Georgia law to use
its property for a transfer
station and therefore the
site development permit
necessary to prepare the
land for such lawful pur
pose must be issued.”
may speak at them. Speaking is limited to the rules and
procedures of the council, he said.
Pickens was arrested after she was escorted from city
hail. She argued with city police in front of the city hall.
Pickens was taken to the Barrow County jail, but was
later released.
The reasoning for her release was different from her and
Statham Police Chief Allan Johnston.
Johnston said she was cited because if the police depart
ment had sought warrants Pickens would have been in jail
overnight.
“I wasn’t going to leave her in jail overnight,” Johnston
said.
Pickens had a different version.
“I got arrested for saying, ‘goddamn,’ to Officer Wood.
He was trying to tell me that it wasn’t their fault what was
happening in Statham and I simply pointed out that if they
were allowing it to happen then it was too their ... fault.
Legally protected free speech anywhere else but Statham.”
She also said she would have been held in the county
jail except an officer there “told me he was getting me out
right then.”
She said, “Wood tried to put a 72-hour hold on me.”
