The city leaders
of Senoia will retreat to the Freeman Sasser building in the city's park
later this month to determine the city's goals and projects for the upcoming
year.
The retreat
is set for Feb.28 and runs from noon until 5 p.m. Mayor Joan Trammell
said a similar retreat held by the city two years ago was an all-day event,
but she believes the Council can get the issues discussed in five hours
this year.
In a significant
move, Trammell issued an invitation to County Commissioner Vernon "Mutt"
Hunter to attend the retreat.
"I think
that will give him a better idea of what we're facing down here,"
she said.
Trammell and
Hunter have not been on the best terms for the last year. Trammell, along
with Senoia City Councilman Dianne Cleveland, backed Hunter's opponent
in last November's election.
Trammell also
expressed dismay that the county's recent contribution of $10,000 to the
city's library was made payable to the library board and not the city.
"I asked
the county to make the check out to the city, but they said they could
not do that," she said.
This is the
first mini-squabble between city officials and Coweta County since the
election and Trammell is hopeful Hunter will take her up on her offer
and attend the retreat.
