FRANKLIN NC REAL ESTATE The County and City Leadership in Franklin NC & Macon County is GREAT
You've got to love Franklin NC, and Macon County! Sure I could go on and on about the beauty and friendliness of the area, but then, we all know that! What some of us don't know is what goes on behind the scenes of local government. Recently, in the Franklin Press there was an article published that addressed the issue of Rabun County, Georgia and a draft-permit public hearing on a wastewater treatment facility that could impact the Little Tennessee River which flows north to Macon County from Georgia. Rabun County's commissioners have applied for a NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) permit that would allow them to discharge 2 million gallons per day of treated sewage into the Little Tennessee River at the site of the former Fruit of the Loom (FOTL) plant in Rabun Gap, Ga.

Macon County was well represented at the public hearing. The ENTIRE five-member Macon board of commissioners attended the meeting, along with county manager Jack Horton, soil and erosion control officer Matt Mason, Director of Permitting, Planning and Development Jack Morgan and county planner Derek Roland. Franklin alderman Bob Scott represented the Town of Franklin and outlined their concerns.

Residents and prospective new residents have to love our Town of Franklin and the Macon County Commissioners tenacity to roll up their sleeves and get in the ring to defend our property rights and values against an out of state entity. I know a few of these men personally and I can tell you that it is their hearts to preserve our land and family values here in Franklin. It is the work of men like these that will afford us the opportunity to pass Franklin NC on to our heirs in better condition then when we received it.
