Guin Voters Decide Wet

As most of you know by now, voters decided by a margin of 617 - 388 to sell alcohol within the city limits of Guin. Now that we've completed this part of the process, the real work begins. Your mayor and city council have worked very hard to develop an ordinance which is designed to protect our community and maintain the quality of life we know now. We'll continue to review the ordinance and make changes as needed to provide our community the very best protection possible.

As we move forward from this very divisive vote, we need to remember what makes our community great. And that's the love we have for each other and for our community. Over the last several weeks, I've watched as friendships were strained, faiths were tested, and good names were dragged through the mud. That's not what I came to love about this great city we live in. I hope and pray this community will ultimately heal from the wounds of a very emotional and divisive process and work together to move our community forward.
