Urge City Ten Hasten Forsyth Street Work
A storm of protest by South Forsyth Street property owners and citizens grows as regrading and paving lag. A delegation plans to urge the street committee to speed completion, warning extended closures threaten Whitehall and connected avenues. Officials cite bad weather and complex detail work delaying grading, railroad possession, water mains, and service connections for small lots. County crews stayed on task to finish retaining nails and minor work while bids for materials are sought, with completion hoped in a few weeks.
