Senoia's residents head
to the polls Tuesday to decide the city's political future.
In the only contested race,
Senoia Mayor Dianne Cleveland faces off against City Councilman Robert
Hannah in the mayor's race.
"I think Senoia's
in great shape," said Cleveland at a political forum in October.
During the campaign, Cleveland
has emphasized the accomplishments of her administration, including getting
the sewer system started, and getting good employees to work for the city.
"The public works department
is excellent. They've always got a smile on their face," she
said.
Cleveland also deflected some
criticism of the city's move toward impact fees.
"We're looking at about
$78,000 in additional revenue each year," she said.
Hannah, who's served on
the City Council for six years, called Cleveland a "good friend,"
but said it was time for real leadership in the city.
"We have got to have personnel
in place that can handle the growth," he said.
Hannah said he was in favor
of the impact fees, but said it could have been done cheaper than the
$20,000 the city is spending on studies.
Both candidates have stated
their opposition to any future annexation efforts and said that bike paths
and walking trails would soon be coming to the city.
The city was also slated to
have a council race, but incumbent Councilman Pat Tunnell withdrew from
the race in October. The remaining two candidates, Anthony Miller and
Larry Owens will appear on the ballot and will be sworn into office in
January.
Polls are open from 7 a.m-7
p.m. Tuesday.
