The TDK Extension Many people,

including me, can share in the blame for the traffic situation on Ga.

Highway 54 West. One man can take the blame for not getting it fixed as

soon as humanly possible. That man is Mayor Brown.

The Fayette County Commission,

the Coweta County Commission, the Fayette Chamber of Commerce, the Fayette

County and Peachtree City Development authorities, all the businesses

in the industrial park, and the Peachtree City Council have all been in

favor of and worked mightily to make this road a reality. One man is stopping

it Mayor Brown.

He says we have no money. We

did, in fact, have it set aside for this purpose but Mayor Brown squandered

almost $1 million buying a small piece of land at the entrance to the

Wynnmeade subdivision on Hwy. 54 for reasons unknown to most of us.

If that money had not been

wasted and if Mayor Brown was doing his job, TDK Boulevard would be opening

in 2003 and much of the pressure would be off Hwy. 54 while it is being

widened. The next time you're sitting in traffic there, going nowhere,

call the mayor and ask him about his sense of priorities.

I could continue on other topics

but this letter is long enough. Just keep in mind when reading Mr. Brown's

letters that our mayor is self-delusional on a cosmic scale and, that

while he's not very good at the job of mayor, he is truly an artist when

it comes to self-aggrandizement and personal PR. He is, as the saying

goes, a legend in his own mind.
