The Peachtree City Council

will consider allowing 15-year-old golf cart drivers with their Georgia

learner's permit to drive their siblings around.

An amendment will be considered

at Thursday's council meeting that would allow up to three immediate family

members to ride along without requiring the driver to be supervised by

a parent or grandparent. Currently, those drivers are limited to one passenger

who must be at least 15 years old also.

At previous council meetings,

parents have urged they should be the ones to decide whether their 15-year-olds

are responsible enough to drive around their sisters and brothers.

Council is also expected to

consider allowing a new subdivision on the northern end of the city to

connect to a new subdivision in Tyrone planned by the same developer.

Also on the agenda for council

consideration is a new water resource protection ordinance and a possible

change to the city charter which would allow the city to separate its

city attorney and solicitor positions.
