Despite having been stripped of their voting power by the City Council, four members of the Planning Commission and an alternate gave the equivalent of a no-confidence no-vote Monday night to a 20-acre rezoning request.

The proposal by property owner Mike Hyde included a first-phase $80 million construction of 308 apartments and a 2-acre central park on a portion of a 20-acre site in south Peachtree City. Later phases would bring an upscale restaurant, some mixed-use retail residential and possible commercial and office units.

From classroom activities to creative videos and everything in between, hundreds of students from Fayette County Public Schools are celebrating Black History Month and paying tribute to influential African Americans throughout history.
Students at North Fayette Elementary are participating in superhero themed black history research projects where they are researching an African American who made a contribution to society, writing an essay, and creating a Google presentation to present to their class.
Crabapple Lane Elementary is coming together to create a museum that honors Black History Month. With a space filled from corner to corner, students will take a walking field trip through the museum, looking at poster boards full of information about influential African Americans in music, sports, literature, math, science, and dance as well as important dates in history.
