STORY 1:Townhomes and Single-Family Homes Proposed For SW Cherokee

A public hearing is scheduled for December 17 regarding Lynwood Development LLC's proposal to rezone 14.34 acres in southwest Cherokee County for a mix of townhomes and single-family homes. Initially, the plan was for 95 townhomes, but after the Cherokee County Planning Commission recommended denial, the developer revised the plan to include both townhomes and single-family homes. This change aims to address residents' concerns, with townhomes near commercial areas and single-family homes around existing residences. The hearing will be held at the Cherokee County Conference Center in Canton.

STORY 2:Goshen's Family Resource Center Supports Canton Families

Six months after opening, the Goshen Valley Foundation's Family Resource Center in Canton is actively supporting the community with counseling, family support, crisis assistance, and mental health services. Located at 230 Marietta Highway, the 6,500-square-foot facility offers various therapies, a food pantry, and a playground. The center served about 340 people in 2023, collaborating with nonprofits, schools, and churches. With a staff of 20 and additional contractors, it addresses issues like mental health, domestic violence, and housing. Supported by a Georgia Department of Human Services grant, the center also provides bilingual services and operates Monday to Friday.

STORY 3:Cherokee County Firefighters Earn Promotions

Thirteen members of Cherokee County Fire and Emergency Services were promoted during a ceremony on November 7 at the Canton Theatre. The event celebrated their dedication to community safety, with family, friends, and colleagues in attendance. Promotions included Bonn Ellerbee, Matthew Perry, Evan Groet, and Austin Wyatt to sergeant; Ethan Garner and Brady Reed to lieutenant; James Lussier, Nathanial Croft, Jon Villalobos, and Phillip Shrout to captain; and Alexander Adams, Jason Williams, and Nathan Baum to battalion chief. Fire Chief Eddie Robinson praised their commitment and leadership, emphasizing their role in mentoring future firefighters.

STORY 4:Woodstock Senior Center Honors Military Veterans

The William G. Long Senior Center in Woodstock hosted its first Veterans Appreciation Social Event on November 8 to honor Veterans Day. The event featured a photo shoot for attending veterans, with their photos and service information displayed for peers. Attendees also watched appreciation videos for each military branch while enjoying food, drinks, and raffle prizes. The center plans to make this social event an annual tradition to continue honoring veterans in the community.

STORY 5: Bohannon Out as KSU Football Coach, Disputes AD's Statement

Brian Bohannon is no longer the head football coach at Kennesaw State, with conflicting reports about whether he resigned or was fired. Athletic Director Milton Overton stated Bohannon resigned, but Bohannon and his sons disputed this, claiming he was informed of a leadership change. Bohannon, who led the program since its inception, leaves with a 72-38 record and multiple championships. The team struggled in its transition to the FBS, currently holding a 1-8 record. Chandler Burks will serve as interim head coach for the final games, with a national search for a new coach underway.

STORY 4:CCSD Teachers and Leaders Recognized as Microsoft Innovative Educator Experts

Forty-three educators from the Cherokee County School District have been recognized as Microsoft Innovative Educator Experts, the highest number in any Georgia district. This title honors educators who excel in using technology to enhance learning. Among them, Merry Hofmeister, an Instructional Technology Specialist, has also been named a Microsoft Innovative Educator Fellow for the sixth year, one of only 26 in the U.S. The honorees will be recognized at the school board meeting on November 21. This recognition provides access to new resources and a global network for sharing best practices.

Woodstock Arts is presenting "The Many Disguises of Robin Hood" as part of its "Season of Wonder," featuring third to eighth graders.

STORY 6: Biden urges Americans to 'bring down temperature' after Trump win

In a conciliatory address, President Joe Biden urged Americans to lower political tensions following Donald Trump's election victory over Kamala Harris. Biden emphasized the integrity of the U.S. election system and assured a peaceful transition of power. He congratulated Trump and invited him to the White House, marking their first meeting since Biden's debate exit. Despite concerns over Trump's "America First" policies, world leaders pledged cooperation. Trump's victory, making him the first convicted felon elected president, signals potential reversals of Biden's policies, including military aid to Ukraine and climate initiatives.

STORY 7:Marria Voted Week 12 POW

Ean Marria of Sequoyah was named Cherokee County's Week 12 Player of the Week after a standout performance in a 21-14 win over Creekview, securing the No. 2 seed in Region 6AAAAA.

He totaled 104 yards in the game and was a key player throughout the season, with 406 rushing yards, 190 receiving yards, and leading the team with seven sacks. Sequoyah finished the regular season 9-1, with playoffs starting November 15-16 after a delay due to Hurricane Helene.

STORY 1:Cherokee County Woman Convicted of Husband's Murder

A Cherokee County jury convicted Melody Farris, 64, of the 2018 murder of her husband, Gary Farris. She was found guilty of malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, and other charges. Gary's remains were discovered on a burn pile on their property, with evidence including a bullet in his rib and blood in the home. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation confirmed his DNA on a spent bullet. Prosecutors argued Melody killed Gary for financial gain, as she was the beneficiary of his estate and life insurance. The defense claimed insufficient evidence and suggested their son might be involved. Sentencing is set for December, with a minimum life sentence expected.

STORY 2:Cherokee County Seeking Input on Safe Streets for All Action Plan

Cherokee County is conducting a final round of public engagement for the Safe Streets for All Safety Action Plan, aimed at reducing traffic fatalities. The plan, funded by a U.S. Department of Transportation grant, addresses factors contributing to traffic crashes. From 2018 to 2022, the county saw 87 fatalities and 436 serious injuries. Citizens can provide feedback through a virtual meeting on Nov. 6 and in-person sessions at local libraries from Nov. 8. The plan is being developed by Pond and Company, with public input helping shape future roadway safety improvements.

STORY 3:Man to Serve 10 Years for Stealing Over $1M From Elderly Mother

Thomas Glenn North III, 64, pleaded guilty to stealing $1.35 million from his elderly mother in Woodstock, resulting in a 40-year sentence, with 10 years in prison and the rest on probation. North, who was his mother's power of attorney, neglected her care and exploited her finances, leading to her eviction from an assisted living facility. Over three years, he depleted her bank account and trust fund. The court ordered him to repay the stolen amount at $50,000 annually and prohibited contact with the victim or her family. The case highlights the issue of elder abuse within families.

STORY 4:Former Woodstock PD Crime Analyst Charged with Computer Trespass

Brittany Duncan Page, a former crime analyst for the Woodstock Police Department, has been arrested and charged with computer trespass and violating the Georgia Computer Systems Protection Act. After her resignation on April 16, it was discovered that department records linked to her role had been deleted. Page, who also served as the department's public information officer, worked there for 17 years. She was arrested and later released on a $4,875 bond. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is conducting an ongoing investigation, with findings to be submitted to the Cherokee County District Attorney's Office.

STORY 5: Cherokee County Shines at Sectionals

At the Class AAAAAA state sectionals at Allatoona Creek Park, the Etowah boys and girls teams, along with the Cherokee girls, qualified for the state meet with top-12 finishes. This year, state meet qualifiers are determined by sectional competitions. Etowah's boys placed sixth, while Cherokee's boys narrowly missed qualifying, finishing 13th. In the girls' race, Etowah and Cherokee secured 11th and 12th places, respectively. Etowah's Bo Colpaert was the top local finisher in the boys' race, and Cherokee's Callie Cornelius led the local girls. In Class AAAAA, Creekview's teams, along with Woodstock boys and River Ridge girls, also qualified for the state meet. Creekview's Malachi Burnett won the boys' race.
