ritage Grant Approved for Royal Theatre
Flint Regional
ment Historic Preservation
Lynn Miller, announced to
officials late last week that
would receive the
2000 grant for the restora-
the Royal Theater that doubles
Hall. "The official letter has to
.its way through channels, so we
don't know exactly how much we got.
But we asked for sixty plus thousand
and should get slightly less because so
many projects were funded."
Miller said that in the local area,
Grantville and West Point also received
grants.
Miller cited the good work of the
Hogansville Charitable Trust as instru-
mental in procuring the grant. "The
planning that the trust and its archi-
tect did made the project a winner. The
attention to detail of John Kennedy,
Joan DeMarrais and Susanne Cook was
very commendable. The detailed plan-
ning put the project over the top."
The trust spent $4500 for architec-
tural plans raised from last year's
Hummingbird Festival, Hogansville's
yearly fund-raiser.
"I couldn't be more delighted," said
trust board member John Hardy Jones.
This is great news for Hogansville and
the trust. And it underscores the impor-
tance of this year's Hummingbird
Festival and Old Time Country Fair."
The festival will be the main vehi-
cle for raising the approximately
$35,000 needed for matching funds for
the grant.
"It's great that the grant was
announced just before the festival,"
said trust board member Jack Leidner.
"It's the perfect time to launch the
'Fixin' to Fix the Royal' campaign to
raise the matching funds."

The council decided to hold a
public hearing on November 20
at 6:50 p.m. To consider rezon-
.hag Huntcliff from CD to R-I.
Arnold said he didn't think you
could change zoning in the mid-
dle of the stream. "We have
already spent a million dollars on
the project," he said.
It is ridiculous to have to
spend money on legal fees for the
rezoning, Arnold said in a phone
interview Tuesday morning. He
added, "We are not going to stand
for the city to do this to us."
Arnold's lawyers said at this
point, they were not saying any-
thing about the matter.
