Public hearings to be held in Cumming ahead of alcohol vote

CUMMING - Forsyth County commissioners have scheduled two public hearings in advance of a vote on the Sunday retail sale of alcohol in the county.

The referendum vote will take place on March 6. The two hearings have been set for this Thursday, February 2 and for Thursday, March 1. Both will be held at 5:00 p.m. ahead of regular county commission meetings. The meeting site is at the Forsyth County Administration Building (Suite 220), located at 110 E. Main Street in Cumming.
