Holmes was honored for assisting a hospital staff member who experienced a medical emergency while he was waiting to transfer a patient. He quickly provided critical support, including setting up an IV and EKG, during a busy time in the ED. Hospital leaders and Fire Chief Christopher Finch recognized Holmes for his timely actions, presenting him with a certificate during a leadership huddle. STORY 2: Braves Install New Garden Towers at Truist Park To celebrate Earth Day, the Atlanta Braves installed eight garden towers at Truist Park to grow plants for ballpark food items. Two towers are ready for harvest, producing lettuce and herbs, with a plan to yield 56 plants weekly. Excess produce will support the Braves' food donation program in partnership with Second Helpings Atlanta, aiding the community. Located near the Blue Moon Beer Garden, this rooftop urban garden is a collaboration with Delaware North and Truist Park’s Executive Chef Jaco Dreyer. For details, visit Braves.com/Sustainability. STORY 3: Data center project raises concerns about water, power usage The Social Circle Planning Commission faced strong opposition during a meeting on rezoning 338 acres for a data center between Ga. Highway 11 and Social Circle Road. Despite concerns over annexation legality and water usage, the commission voted 3-2 to recommend rezoning from Agricultural to Light Industrial but tabled the Special Use Permit until May 27. Key issues included the data center's 2.6 million gallons/day water demand, with no firm commitment from Newton County Water and Sewerage Authority, and unclear power commitments from Georgia Power. Newton County Commissioner LeAnne Long opposed the rezoning, warning it could lead to unchecked annexation and industrialization, urging Newton County to take control of development to preserve the area’s rural character.
