Fayette County searching for new public works directorTue, 04/17/2007 - 4:28pm
By: John Thompson
After more than a decade of service to Fayette County, Public Works Director Lee Hearn feels it’s time to move on to the next challenge in his career. “I’ve got an opportunity to work for Henry County and help deal with all the growth that’s going on over there,” Hearn said Monday. On Monday, he formally submitted his letter of resignation to the county. He’ll be starting his new job as assistant public works director in Henry County in six weeks and hopes to tie up any loose ends in Fayette before he departs. Hearn has been at his post for more than 10 years, and said it was a great job that gave him an opportunity to interact with many of the residents. “If I’ve got a regret about leaving, it’s that I won’t see many of the SPLOST projects to their end,” he said. He dismissed reports that there was “bad blood” between him and the county administration, and said he would still be willing to answer questions after he assumes his new post in Henry County. “I’ve got no axe to grind against anybody. I think this is just the right opportunity for me.” login to post comments![]() |
