"No

sewer, no way," was the message Fayette

County commissioners gave Larry Woolard when he

asked to have his county-line property sewered by

Clayton County.

But

commissioners hinted that if Woolard goes through

proper channels, they might consider allowing

Clayton to provide water to the property.

"I

have no problem with water," said

Commissioner Glen Gosa, chairman of the county

Water Committee. "But, he would have to run

it back through the Water Committee," said

county manager Billy Beckett.

Woolard

said he wants to develop his commercial property

at Ga. Highway 138 and Ga. Highway 314, and

Fayette provides neither water nor sewer in that

area.

"It

has been a long-standing policy not to allow

sewer service from another county to be extended

over into Fayette," said commission Chairman

Harold Bost. Commissioners fear that additional

customers will want to hook on, adding to the

density of development in general. The one

exception has been Our Lady of Mercy Catholic

School.
