Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors Holding Special Candidate Meeting for Banister District Seat

GRETNA, Va. — Robert Locust Sr. passed away January 2020, but his memory will forever live on as the Grenta High School gym was dedicated to him on Saturday.

GRETNA, Va. — At their last council meeting, Gretna Town Council agreed to support a name change from E. Watts Street to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive, thanks to a suggestion made by Kell Stone at their February meeting. While the council had no issue with making the change, they wanted to reach out to others in the community to see especially if the street might have been named for a family.  Since that meeting, town officials have been working to make sure no one has objections to this by sending letters out to adjacent property owners, all of which did not reply. 

The Town of Gretna could soon see the renaming of one of their streets after a famed Civil Rights leader.
