In his request to have the 1.86-acre property rezoned from Office Institutional (OI) to Duplex Residential, developer Steve McWilliams told council members he planned to construct one upscale duplex on the undeveloped property.

The first library in the City of Fayetteville was back in the year 1929. There were six concerned moms who felt a library was a necessary addition to their town.
They started with 100 books in a schoolroom, which later burned, then operated out of their living rooms until another school room could be obtained.
By selling various items such as jams and jellies, homemade aprons etc., on the courthouse lawn, they finally raised enough funds in 1946 to build the edifice now home to the Fayette County Historical Society.

Nearly all power outages in Coweta and Fayette counties had been restored by Sunday morning.
A Sunday morning check of the storm maps for Coweta-Fayette EMC and Georgia Power showed there were 7 remaining power outages in Coweta and 23 in Fayette for EMC customers and none for Georgia Power customers.
That constituted a dramatic shift in outages, particularly for EMC, since 4,000 of its customers were still without power Friday morning. It was during that period when EMC had 2,200 customers in Coweta and 1,800 in Fayette without electricity.

To live everyday full of romance, endless love, and laughter are ingredients of days only found in fairytales.
Experiencing the same unconditional love of a sleeping infant in a mother’s arms or the joy received from the whole-body hugs from a child just doesn’t exist for us adults.
But what if it did? What if everyday could be a fairytale romance like Valentine’s Day?
