Spring Hill - It doesn't happen very often in Tennessee, and when we do get a little now, the city is usually shut down. But this time the snow storm was on March 1st, and it was a Sunday. Thankfully the traffic was light, and my trip to the airport at 08:00 a.m. was just a little slower than usual, not really dangerous.

THis is not normal Tennessee weather, especially in March.

Franklin Tennessee was the site of the site of the Battle of Franklin, one of the worse disasters of the Civil War. The confrontation claimed 8,587 lives.

Dear Mayor Leverette, Alderman Mitchell, and Alderman Duda,

On the evening of October 6, 2008 I attended a work session in which a plan for the Wades Grove swimming pool was discussed. Several Wades Grove home owners were in attendance, my husband and myself included, to support John Maher and the pool project. You probably witnessed an exodus after the topic was closed, and yes, that was Wades Grove residents there to support John Maher.

During the discussion a comment was made that emails had been sent both for and against the swimming pool. I feel John Maher has been more then considerate in accommodating the residents wishes, however as we all know you cannot make everyone happy. He has changed his master plan and is giving up 3 lots to accommodate the wishes of a 90% majority Wades Grove residents vote in favor of having a pool as soon as possible. All this has been at his expense. The residents will only incur an additional $20.00 a month HOA fee. I fully support the swimming pool project and hope you will share my same enthusiasm. I understand there are some who do not share my same enthusiasm, but to use a colloquialism let's not "let the tail wag the dog." The residents favorable majority vote of 90% speaks volumes.

Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Sincerely, Elizabeth Payne-Brewer
