The 3,500-square-foot shop will feature an expanded menu, including specialty cocktails, alongside its signature coffee and food offerings. Founded by Sabrina Kaylor in 2020, Bizarre Coffee started as a farmer’s market favorite before opening locations in Canton and Woodstock. The Roswell shop aims to be a community hub with space for gatherings and events. For more details, visit www.bizarrecoffee.com. STORY 2: Woodstock Joins Support for Creating Cherokee County Land Bank Woodstock leaders have joined Canton, Cherokee County, and Holly Springs in supporting the creation of the Cherokee Regional Land Bank Authority. On April 28, the Woodstock City Council unanimously approved a resolution expressing interest in developing a proposal for the land bank, which aims to redevelop blighted and delinquent properties. The Cherokee County Board of Commissioners and other cities approved similar resolutions earlier this year. The land bank would be a public entity governed by a board of directors from participating jurisdictions, requiring collaboration between the county and at least one municipality to move forward. STORY 3: Debra Shigley to Run for Georgia Senate Debra Shigley, a Democrat from Milton, has announced her candidacy for Georgia’s Senate District 21 seat, soon to be vacated by Sen. Brandon Beach. Shigley, a mom of five, small business owner, and former employment attorney, aims to prioritize affordability, public safety, and strong education. Backed by the Senate Democratic Caucus, she joins a race with seven Republican candidates, including Cherokee County’s Jason Dickerson, Brice Futch, and Steve West. Shigley previously ran a record-breaking campaign for Georgia House and has been active in local governance and voter advocacy. Her formal announcement is set for Thursday in Canton.

Enrollment has dropped from over 60% to 55%, with around 70,000 children currently enrolled, down from 80,000. A new report by the National Institute for Early Education Research gave Georgia an 8/10 for quality, citing large class sizes as a drawback. However, $97 million in new funding this year aims to improve teacher pay, reduce class sizes, and boost quality, potentially restoring Georgia's leadership in preschool excellence. Challenges remain in addressing enrollment disparities and capacity shortages across the state. STORY 5: Woodstock Leaders Approve New Voting Precinct Location Woodstock has approved a new polling precinct, Arnold Mill, located at Arnold Mill Elementary School, bringing the city’s total to 11 precincts. The City Council voted unanimously on April 28 to adopt the resolution, with Councilmember David Potts absent. Residents of the new Vista Ridge subdivision will vote at this location. The full list of Woodstock polling locations is available, and voters can confirm their precinct on Georgia’s My Voter Page website.

  • Cherokee County Approves 3.5 Miles of Resurfacing in Canton

    Cherokee County Approves 3.5 Miles of Resurfacing in Canton
    Apr 18 2025
    CTL Script/ Top Stories of April 18th Publish Date: April 18th   Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast  Today is Friday, April 18th and Happy Birthday to Melissa Joan Hart ***04.18.25 - BIRTHDAY – MELISSA JOAN HART*** I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cherokee County Approves 3.5 Miles of Resurfacing in Canton Nelson Buys 4 Acres From Cherokee for Public Works Building Judge says Trump officials likely in contempt over deportations Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on Celiac Disease We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Commercial: MILL ON ETOWAH REV GENERIC_FINAL STORY 1: Cherokee County Approves 3.5 Miles of Resurfacing in Canton Residents of Great Sky and Laurel Canyon neighborhoods in Canton will soon see road resurfacing, following an agreement between Cherokee County and the city of Canton. The project covers 3.595 miles of roads, costing $941,199.89, with an additional 0.405 miles possible if funds allow. Funded by Local Maintenance and Improvement Grants and SPLOST, work includes Great Sky Parkway, Fountain Oak Way, and Laurel Canyon Parkway. Cherokee County also approved a $3.36 million contract for resurfacing 17 miles countywide, including Towne Lake Hills East. Projects are set to finish by September, avoiding school traffic disruptions. STORY 2: Nelson Buys 4 Acres From Cherokee for Public Works Building The city of Nelson will build a new public works facility on a four-acre parcel purchased from Cherokee County for $120,000. Approved by the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners on April 15, the sale proceeds will go to the county fire department’s 2024 SPLOST budget. Nelson plans to use the site for housing sanitation trucks and equipment. The remaining six acres of the property will host a future fire station, replacing the unstaffed Fire Station 26, to better serve northern Cherokee County. STORY 3: Judge says Trump officials likely in contempt over deportations A federal judge, James Boasberg, found sufficient evidence to hold the Trump administration in criminal contempt for deporting accused Venezuelan gang members to El Salvador on March 15, defying his verbal order to halt the flights. Boasberg cited "willful disregard" and "bad faith" by officials but has not yet named individuals for prosecution, giving the administration a chance to comply by allowing detainees to seek U.S. judicial review. The deportations, tied to Trump invoking the Alien Enemies Act, sparked legal battles over presidential authority and due process, with the Supreme Court later overturning Boasberg’s order pausing the removals.

The Woodstock City Council approved the plan to improve parking turnover and reduce congestion, benefiting local businesses. Paid zones include Chambers, Elm, Main, and East Main Streets, with enforcement from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. Most parking, including a 600-space deck, remains free. Managed by Pivot Parking, the program aims to create 1,000 additional daily parking opportunities, with revenues funding enforcement and future parking improvements. STORY 5: Cherokee County Historic Store Transforming Into Coffee Shop The Cherokee County Board of Commissioners approved a legacy use for We2Friends Coffeehouse to transform the historic J.B. Mathis General Store on Union Hill Road into a coffeehouse and gift shop. Built in 1950, the store is a cherished piece of local history. The legacy use allows the business to open without rezoning, preserving the building while adapting it for modern community needs. The coffeehouse will feature locally roasted coffee, gifts, and a welcoming space for social interaction. Commissioners hope this project inspires others to restore historic buildings in the area.
