Debate over designating the McGhees Mile Track as a historic landmark continues as Aiken City Council prepares for a final public hearing. Owners Bruce and Janis McGhee oppose the move while resident Kiki Blalock leads the petition. The council plans to review language for an ordinance after discussions with both sides.

The Historic and Planning Commissions previously split in their recommendations. Council meets Monday at 7:30 p.m. with a 6:45 p.m. work session at the Aiken Municipal Complex.
