Senoia's Main

Street will soon be sporting a new look.

Coweta County

Commissioner Vernon "Mutt" Hunter asked the County Commission

Tuesday to let county workers build the new planters in the town's downtown

area.

The city's

Downtown Development Authority received a grant to replace the planters

that are currently built of crossties.

The new planters

will be brick and be more in tune with the city's historic flavor, officials

say. Hunter asked the board to let authority member Jimmy Hutchinson oversee

the work.

In other news,

the commission:

Approved a

resolution condemning last Tuesday's terroristic attacks in New York City

and Washington.

Reported the

open house at the new fairgrounds facility on Pine Road was a rousing

success. The fair opened this week, and the board has heard nothing but

favorable comments from residents.

Agreed to

let the American Legion display MIA and POW flags at the Coweta County

Courthouse today. The group is staging a special ceremony to rally the

troops after last week's attacks.

Approved a

$20,000 change order for the new water tank in the Canongate community.

Assistant administrator Eddie Whitlock said the engineering firm of Palmer

and Stevenson had evaluated the site and determined there was no rock

in the area.

But when construction

started, the crew ran into a heavy bed of rock and needed the extra $20,000

to eliminate it.

Commissioner

Hunter wondered if sounding equipment had been used to look for rock and

asked Whitlock to investigate the situation further.
