Fayette County Commission Chairman Greg Dunn was surprised last week when

Peachtree City Mayor Steve Brown issued a clarion call for district voting

in the county commission races.

"I don't know what he's thinking, but I don't think

you can assume you can't represent people unless you look like them," Dunn

said.

Brown said last week that going to district-wide voting would allow all

residents of the county to be more fairly represented. The mayor contends

that some areas of the county are being ignored by the commission.

But Dunn thinks Brown needs to take a look at his own backyard before telling

the county how to conduct its voting.

"All of the Peachtree City Council members are elected at large. Why

isn't he concerned about that?" Dunn said.

Brown also favors having the county commission chairman elected separately.

But Dunn says he believes that the current election system is the best for

all county residents.

"The current system allows each commissioner to be concerned about

every member of the county instead of just the people in the [the commissioner's

own] district," he said.

In a separate issue, Dunn said he is just feeling fine these days. Dunn

went to the hospital recently and had an angioplasty done. He returned home

after the procedure and has picked up his busy schedule.

"I've got two golf tournaments scheduled and I don't plan

to miss those," he said.
