Forsyth County Ga joined the Atlanta Regional commission in 2021.

Everytime it's mentioned a bunch of locals inevitablly start claiming the ARC will turn Forsyth into "Atlanta" and the ARC is taking over and how we should leave it.

It's the same baffling logic behind refused the medicaid expansion.

Leaving the ARC or refusing to join it doesn't make it go away. It just removes our seat at the table. It won't change the economic geography of the county either.

Something really odd happened at the Sharon Forks Library in Forsyth County yesterday. It was apparently very busy (story time) when it had to be evacuated due to "suspicious activity".

Whatever it was, it generated a multi agency response 4+ police agencies and 3 (Forsyth, Hall, and Gwinnett) fire agencies.

They haven't given any details of the suspicious activity yet.

All I can think is a swatting or bomb threat.

Forsyth County is really the epitome of a suburban/rural county where they people make it hard for small developers to do small less intense development, so most of the development that gets through is big intense development by huge developers with lots of money.
