STORY 1:   Cherokee County a Step Closer to Renovating Former Arts Center

Renovations on the former Cherokee Arts Center building in Canton are set to begin in early 2025, following the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners' approval of a $472,524.80 agreement with Hogan Construction Group. The project aims to support the Cherokee County Justice Center's needs, including indigent defense and accountability courts. Renovations will include new lighting, HVAC, and updated interiors, with the former sanctuary space used for meetings and court graduations. Funded by the American Rescue Plan Act and local sales tax, the project is estimated at $5.7 million, with completion expected by early 2026. 

STORY 2:  Raffensperger signs off on presidential election results

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger certified the presidential election results, confirming Donald Trump's victory over Kamala Harris in the state. This followed a hand count of over 700,000 ballots, which showed minor discrepancies but no changes to the outcome. Trump gained 11 votes, while Harris lost six compared to the machine count. Raffensperger declared it the most secure election in Georgia's history. With certification complete, Georgia's electors will meet on December 17 to finalize the results for Congress, where Trump secured 312 electoral votes, surpassing the 270 needed for the presidency. 

STORY 3:  Woodstock OKs Extension for New Restaurant Buildout

Woodstock City Council granted Connolly Realty LLC a 12-month extension to complete a new restaurant on Towne Lake Parkway, initially approved in June 2023. The restaurant will be part of the Town Lake Plaza shopping center, which includes tenants like The Blue Ghost Arcade and Gyro Aegean Grill. Adjacent to this site, Connolly Realty plans a shopping center with a grocery store and five commercial buildings. The extension allows the developer to submit a site plan in early 2025, with construction starting in summer or fall. Further extensions may be requested if substantial progress is made.

STORY 4:   Trump Expected to Tap Loeffler as Agriculture Secretary

President-elect Donald Trump plans to nominate former U.S. Senator Kelly Loeffler from Georgia as the Secretary of Agriculture. Loeffler, appointed to the Senate in 2020 by Governor Brian Kemp, lost her seat to Democrat Raphael Warnock in 2021. A wealthy businesswoman, Loeffler has been a strong Trump supporter, backing his 2020 election challenges. Despite her business background not being in agriculture, she grew up on a farm in Illinois. Her nomination requires Senate confirmation. Loeffler also co-chairs Trump's inauguration committee and founded Greater Georgia to support Republican candidates. 



STORY 5: Sequoyah Beats Woodward, Equals Furthest Postseason Run

The Sequoyah football team secured a spot in the Class AAAAA quarterfinals with a 35-20 victory over Woodward Academy, tying their single-season wins record and matching their deepest postseason runs from 2004 and 2018. Coach James Teter celebrated his 96th win, just one shy of the program's all-time record. Ean Marria scored three touchdowns, while Will Rajecki added two more with 195 rushing yards. Sequoyah's defense made crucial stops, including a key interception by Marria. The Chiefs will face Coffee next, aiming to make postseason history.
