Lee Consolidation Unlikely
Press release from the issuing company
Monday, November 22nd, 2010
During the recently ended summer of political discontent and into this fall of uncertainty, a number of Leesburg residents have registered complaints that focus on “what we’re getting for the extra 6 mills of taxes we’re paying.”
Followed, inevitably, by a word that’s as frightening to some officials as it is intriguing to others: consolidation.
And while that one word still stirs passions in many Dougherty Countians, given the million-dollar-plus taxpayer-funded study that they still haven’t had an opportunity to vote on, it’s generated only sporadic interest in one of Georgia’s fastest growing communities.
