No opposition is expected Thursday

night, when the Peachtree City Council will be asked to approve the names

of five residents nominated to fill the vacancies on the city's Development

Authority.

Just Tuesday, a fifth vacancy

was created on the seven-seat board when chairman Bob Brooks resigned.

That left just two members, Scott Formel and Bill Bexley, from the original

board that managed the Frederick Brown Jr. Amphitheater and Peachtree

City Tennis Center through Nov. 30.

With those tasks now firmly

in the hands of the new Peachtree City Tourism Association, the mostly

freshman board will return to its original mission: Economic development.

The names nominated by a committee

are Steve Fraas, Todd Strickland, David Miller, Stephen Savage and Tyler

Duffy. None have served on the panel before, although Strickland has been

nominated but withdrew his name last year amid controversy on the council

about the makeup of the DAPC board.

They will serve scattered terms

ranging from one year to four years.
