Revisions in Athens Criminal Code Adopted by Council
The Athens City Council unanimously adopted revisions to the city criminal code after a year and a half of work. The action updated laws to align with state changes and court decisions, added new provisions on obstructing sidewalks and stop and frisk, and repealed two ordinances while updating others including alcohol in vehicles and trespassing. The meeting also approved sewage plant improvements, discussed a traffic light at Routes 56 and 682, and considered an easement for a high power line.
