City Upgrades C00)mpu
By Bryan Geter
The Hogansville City Council voted Monday
night to upgrade their computer programs at
city hall. City Manager David Aldrich said the
city needed the upgrade because "we are
absolutely out of space (capacity).
He said the city could upgrade what was
already in place, but the new software will not
go on these computers. He told the council, The
state said we must go to a new system on uni-
form charted accounts."
The council went with Aldrich's recommen-
dation of going with C-PAK at a cost of $61,155.66.
"I recomrdend C-PAK," he said. "They know our
operation and system and what we do."
The city can purchase the extended three
year warranty which would cover software main-
tenance and computer support, for an extra
$22,200.
TBS submitted a bid of $47,040 but didn't
equalled to about the same price. He added,
companies are good and they
equipment.
In other business, the council set two
hearings for home occupations for
2000.
The public hearing for C.I.
Events is set for 6:45 p.m. The owner,
Isom said the principle occupation will be
dinating meetings.
At 6:30 p.m., the same evening,
ing was set for "Cap Daniels Masion" which
operate weddings and receptions and other D
events. The business located at 602 East
Street will be owned by Vickie and Roger ]
The council granted Van Lowery a
variance at the corner of Industrial Drive
East Boyd Road to set a building he will use
a hardware, feed and seed store.

variance.

City Planning, Zoning Board
Gets Optimistic Predictions
By Bryan Geter
The Hogansville Planning and Zoning committee met
with Chattahoochee Flint's Earl Raymond last Thursday to
discuss the Economic Development of Comprehensive
Planning for the City of Hogansville.
Chairman of the planning committee Wesley Duffey said
this committee wants to see things happen.
Raymond told the committee in 1990, forty percea of
the city's population depended on manufacturing and said
Westex, Botex and Carter's are three of the largest manu-
facturers in the city today.
He said Hogansville, today, has 23 retail businesses not
including restaurants and stated developments in the down-
town area have slowed up and are moving to the outskirts
of town. He said he expects restaurants and retail to increase
in the city in the future.
He also said tourism is expected to increase in Hogansville
with West Point Lake nearby. "This will have an effect on
everybody in Hogansville," Raymond added. "They will buy
gas, beer, Cokes, and ice and will stop at the fast food restau-
rants and convenience stores."
More and more people will be stopping in downtown to
shop the antique stores and visit the historic sites since
Hogansville has much historical significance.
"The Lake (West Point) plays a big part in tourism in
Hogansville," Raymond said. "There are many prospects
for new industry to come here."
"I'd rather see new homes than industry in Hogansville,
" City Manager David Aldrich said, "We like to see new
industry, but we would like to be able to choose."
"We won't shut the door on anybody (industry)," Mayor
Wilson St. Clair said. "We aren't set up for high tech indus-
try, but we will listen to anybody."
