Athens City Maintains Ban on Fireworks Despite Rain
Rain did not sway Athens mayor and council from refusing to revoke or modify the anti fireworks ordinance. The meeting upheld the ban prohibiting sales and discharge within city limits and did not grant a license or allow fireworks. A separate vote considered a $25,000 twelve month loan at five and a half percent, with negotiations to Atlanta banks. The hospital issue awaits a future meeting.
