The November 6th Referendum Vote is creating quite a stir here in Fannin County, GA!  Blue Ridge area residents must decide whether to allow distilled spirits to be sold by the glass in area restaurants. 

Many are afraid of the changes this will bring to our beautiful area.  I am hoping that it will bring welcome changes, such as tax dollars to keep our schools, roads, emergency services, etc. growing.  Growth is not an evil thing if it is managed in a proper way. 

The ordinance that the county commissioners are creating will impose strict management on the restaurants that are allowed licenses to serve. These rules will include the quantity of food sold by the establishment as well as the size of the establishment.  It will also strictly monitor all licensed establishments. 

Our beautiful area will continue to stay beautiful because of the tax dollars and jobs created from the tourist trade.  I can't believe any residents here would want to see Blue Ridge turn into an area of poverty..please think about it.
