FSS is

planning a major fund-raising effort this year for a new

service center, and costs for its services to Fayette's

senior population continue to increase, said Andy Carden,

director.

The city

provided $12,500 last year, but part of it was in a

special hiring program. Since that program is no longer

needed, the city neglected to include that funding this

year.

But Carden

said the nonprofit organization needs the money for other

purposes.

Council

will meet at 7 p.m. Monday at City Hall.

Also on the

agenda will be reversion of a rezoning on Ga. Highway 54.

Through lawyer Geoff Slade, owners of the Landrum

property near Ace Hardware are asking that council delay

its planned reversal of their earlier rezoning of the

property until a case against them is heard in court.

The owners

are accused of using the property improperly as a parking

lot for dump trucks in violation of its

office-insittutional zoning. A court hearing is scheduled

for March 23.

The Fayette County

legislative delegation will host a town hall meeting

Wednesday at 7 p.m. at Starr's Mill High School

auditorium to discuss Gov. Roy Barnes' education bill,

House Bill 1187.

Sen. Rick

Price, Sen. Greg Hecht, Rep. Lynn Westmoreland and Rep.

Kathy Cox will participate in the open meeting.

The

delegation is asking parents, student teachers

administrators, civic leaders and community residents to

attend and share their thoughts and opinions.
