  • Woodstock Police Looking for Man Last Seen in December
    2025/01/24
    CTL Script/ Top Stories of January 24th Publish Date: January 24th   Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast  Today is Friday, January 24th and Happy Birthday to Neil Diamond ***01.24.25 - BIRTHDAY – NEIL DIAMOND*** I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia.  Woodstock Police Looking for Man Last Seen in December Congress clears immigrant detention bill for Trump’s signature on his 3rd day in office Cherokee County School District Announces Spelling Bee Champ Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on raw milk We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Commercial: CU of GA (06.26.24 CU OF GA FREE CHECKING_REV_FINAL) STORY 1: Woodstock Police Looking For Man Last Seen in December The Woodstock Police Department is seeking public assistance in locating Christopher Moss, a 43-year-old man missing since last month. Moss is described as white, 5'10", and weighing 220 pounds. He is driving a grey Jeep Cherokee with Georgia license plate CIR3274 and may be headed to Alabama. Authorities advise anyone who sees him to contact local law enforcement and not to approach him. STORY 2: Congress clears immigrant detention bill for Trump’s signature on his 3rd day in office The U.S. House passed a bill expanding mandatory detention for immigrants charged with petty crimes, sending it to President Trump for approval. The bill, named after Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, passed with bipartisan support, reflecting Trump's immigration crackdown agenda. Critics argue it could lead to mass deportations, as it mandates detention without bond and lacks exceptions for children. The bill also allows state attorneys general to challenge federal immigration policies. Enforcing the law could cost $26.9 billion in its first year, far exceeding ICE's budget. Amendments further broaden detention requirements for assaulting officers and causing serious harm. STORY 3: Cherokee County School District Announces Spelling Bee Champ Seventh-grader Leah Childers from Creekland Middle School won the 2025 Cherokee County School District Spelling Bee by correctly spelling "ubiquity" and "debutante." Liberty Elementary's fifth-grader Royd Reyes took second place after a lengthy final round. Teagan Gray from Johnston Elementary and Sebastian Kasarhis from Carmel Elementary placed third and fourth, respectively. These top four spellers will advance to the Region Bee on February 22, with state winners moving on to the Scripps National Spelling Bee in June. The competition featured 30 students and lasted nearly two hours. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

The project includes variances for rural street sections, reduced front setbacks, and private streets, but not for side setbacks. The development, with a density of 0.75 units per acre, aligns with the area's suburban growth plan. Access will be via Burch Park Lane, with improvements coordinated with county staff.
