Former Brunswick commissioner Plyman dies of cancer

BRUNSWICK - Ken Plyman, a former Brunswick city commissioner and longtime critic of City Hall, has died of cancer at the Southeast Georgia Regional Medical Center. He was 61. <br> <br> Plyman died Wednesday after being hospitalized for several weeks. <br> <br> He became a city commisioner in 1993, but resigned the following year to run for mayor and lost. <br> <br> Plyman died a day after the Georgia Supreme Court heard his appeal of a lawsuit he filed against Glynn County to halt the collection of a special 1-cent sales tax designed to fund various infrastructure improvements. <br> <br> Plyman owned the Leaning Tower of Pizza restaurant and invented equipment for his former heavy tow truck business. But some of his ventures, although successful, raised eyebrows. He opened the Red Carpet Lounge, a topless bar that he sold years ago, and J&#39;s Newstand, an adult bookstore. <br> <br> Services will be at 2 p.m. Saturday at Chapman Funeral Home.
