Woodward Uses Clemency Again

Ducktown claims resolution in Georgia House debate
The Georgia House spent most of Friday session hearing Senator Hake Smith and Cobb Representative Moss. Moss opposed Representative Barry Wright’s resolution to form a joint commission with the governor to adjust Ducktown area copper plant damage claims, which passed 103 to 15. The aim is to settle farm land damage before the Supreme Court order expires in October. A crowd listened as Moss acknowledged a separate measure he plans, but said it wasn’t to advance this resolution. A request to dispense with aye and nay votes faced initial objection but moved forward to avoid delaying Benator Smith’s address. New bills were introduced including changes to charter provisions and a commission to manage various local issues.
