Just to give ya'll some advice from a a/c repairman, now is the time to change that filter and now is the time to have the a/c checked if it's not acting right.

How come PTC and Fayette Co Fire department do not merge to make one great one. I bet it can save PTC tax payers some mo

Our shameless Congressman, Lynn "3 Commandments" Westmoreland, made the national press yet AGAIN with his latest stupidity.

There is more yap on here about tree cutting from people who don't really know what they are talking about.
Yes, we have cut too many forests down in this country and have poorly replaced them, especially since one can never replace the fauna and flora and watersheds that went with them.

Bill proposed in Georgia that would allow billboard owners to clear-cut trees on the roadsides to make it easier for drivers to see their signs

Hollywood returned to Coweta County Saturday morning. During a day-long shoot at Riverwood Studios in Senoia, film crews shot footage for a movie trailer. The movie is a family film and centers around the search for Confederate gold. If a studio picks up the movie, more filming would occur in Senoia. The video shows one of the scenes being staged.

On November 15, Minter Elementary assistant principal Michael Smith was going through his normal workout at the World Gym in Fayetteville. Suddenly, Smith was stricken with a heart attack and collapsed at the gym. Gym workers and other people at the gym used the automatic defibrillator to administer immediate care until the Fayette County EMS showed up at the scene. On Thursday night, the Fayette County Commission honored the EMS staff, World Gym staff and residents for saving Smith's life. In the video, Smith offers his thanks.

Specialist soldier, Pat Tillman. who was killed in the present war, then promoted to corporal, was a former football player who gave up a large football salary to fight in the war.

Peachtree City and Fayetteville have been listed as among the safest cities in our country. I feel this is due to a citizenry that cares - and outstanding law enforcement practices. I shuddered the other day when I saw on the news a lady being robbed in a public parking lot while patrons appeared to calmly walk by. (They may not have realized what was happening.) Today a friend and I were talking in a parking lot in Fayette County. We may have looked distressed since one of us was on the cell phone trying to contact another friend. A gentleman looked over and politely asked if everything was all right. We smiled and answered in the affirmative. We were so impressed that he even was concerned!

I just got a call from a company hired by Columbia Properties - they told me about this website:

You all know that Hackmeister is a reluctant warrior. You know, the "war is a last resort" deal. Well, if today's reports are accurate, we are there with Iran! If we don't join with our Brits in kicking Tehran's teeth in over the kidnapping of 15 British sailors, we will have failed our most faithful international partner.

GLOBABL WARMING VIDEO THE REAL TRUTH

I know a cop who has worked with the County S.O. for two years and now he is with Fayetteville P.D. and he doesn't have a college degree.

I read Steve Brown's comments about Joel Cowan with great interest.

"Joel Cowan was well aware of what the developer wanted to do with his land. He was also well aware of the overwhelming public sentiment against “big box” type development from the local citizenry or his neighbors. He had even expressed to me some years ago that he opposed the local big boxes. I guess this is one of those actions versus words dilemmas."

(1) They are not spending their own money. They are spending someone else’s money. (Ditto for many large corporations.)

It is IMPORTANT to remember several things when considering the future vote the PTC Council has on the south 74 retail (Lowe's) project.

We're talking about big, big boxes here folks. Stop already. I'm referring to development projects. Share your thoughts on the Big Box Link

Can someone explain why they are paving 74 when they are just going to repave it once the other side is done?

The Chiefs defeated the sixth ranked Harrison Hoyas on Wednesday night. Watch the goals and hear Coach Mike Meutzel talk about the win.

I remember reading an article either here or in the print edition a good while back. According to the article, Fayetteville was spending at least $250,000 for fiber optics to synchronize all the red lights in town thereby cutting traffic tremendously.

The best thing you can do is get your neighbors and your friends to FLOOD council's e-mail in-boxes. It's got to come from a TON of different e-mail addresses and make sure to tell them what subdivision you live in etc...

How dare the owner of the land at 74 and Rockaway try and sell his land!!! We must stop him. He needs to sit on his hands and keep his land so we don't have to endure convenient access to a decent home improvement store!

Just for something different, I thought I'd open up a debate on a new topic today.

What do you think about condoms and high school students? Should condoms be made freely available at school clinics? (side thought: do they even HAVE 'school clinics' anymore?)

Hello Citizen readers,

This post is to inform you that the Drama and Chorus Departments of Sandy Creek High School are putting on "West Side Story" this Thursday through Saturday, March 22-24, at 7 p.m.

As soon as the asphalt was dry on the new path on Redwine along the edge of Lakemont and Lakeside subdivisions, I had my bike out to test it. Very nice! Having spent the last 20 years in Maryland, I've been spoiled by the paved paths that go seem to everywhere. We saw these paths in action when we were originally looking at houses to buy in PTC. While it was cute to see the golf carts, we decided to settle in Fayetteville instead. The announcement of the new paths in Fayetteville was a pleasant surprise for our family. But even as I rode my bike I began to think about how things would change if people start getting more golf carts in our area. The paths are not that wide so I wonder how sharing the path with motorized vehicles will play out. How is it working out in Peachtree City. Do carts in PTC share paths well with runners, skaters and bikers?

but I never know the names of streets! Can someone please give me a landmark and tell me where Timberlake Shores is located?

Mayor Harold Logsdon needs to get off his can and stop putting off his duties as mayor. All the talk about financial accountability was nice during the campaign, but it’s time to back it up!

I have read all I could about why a bus from out of town would plow right up an exit, thinking he was still on the diamond lane.
