Commission Chairman Travis Turner stressed the document is just a draft and not a finished product. He also outlined their goal of the public meetings, saying, "The goal of these input sessions is, (A) not to cram anything down the citizens' throat, our desire is to - and I think I speak for everyone here - we want to hear pros, cons and indifference of anything we can do better in presenting a plan to the community. We want to do this in a correct manner."

A second meeting will be held from 6:30-7:30 p.m. Thursday Aug. 22, at the Sautee-Nacoochee Community Center.
