Mayor says Madison done annexing for a while

by KATIE EUBANKS

Sun Staff  Writer

THE CITY OF MADISON is done growing in size for a while.

Mayor Mary Hawkins Butler said the city is not considering annexing any more land right now, though a proposed update of the city’s land-use map outlines a “study area” for potential annexation.

“We’re still trying to take care of what we’ve got after doubling the size of the city [in 2008],” Butler said.

By
Wyatt Emmerich

“I think It’s the worst we’ve ever faced in my lifetime. It’s out of control. You’ve got a president with a different set of values than everybody. Obama is the most liberal president we’ve ever had.”

Accidental pearls of wisdom in a bait shop

By
Robert Shows

Hi y’all!

Yockanookany Ned here.

Years ago I had the pleasure of knowing and becoming friends with Tom Collins. (An easy name to remember.) Tom was the owner and proprietor of ‘The Q and M Bait Shop’ located on Old Canton Road. In the early and mid-’70s, his business, a combination gas station/grocery/bait shop, was one of the few stores in Madison County near the Ross Barnett Reservoir. And, of special note, it was one of only two nearby places to buy beer.

Youngsters won't have these memories

By
Robert Brown

Several unrelated things this week caused me to reflect on events in my life that need to be shared. I’m not talking about personal events but rather national occurrences. Tuesday I was attending Grandparent’s Day at my great-grandson’s school and Thursday I was watching the memorial ceremony for Neil Armstrong’s passing.
