Is It a New Jail or a Sex Offender Resort?


A recent blog concerning Colbert County Commissioner Charles Hovater refusing to support the county's animal shelter has garnered a pithy comment concerning the good commissioner:

The Tuscumbia Camp William A. Johnston #898 respectfully asked Mr. Hovater if we could place a military monument on the court house lawn with other military monuments, he assured us there would be no problem with it. When we arrived he and his fellow members turned against us and used 48 News as their way of twisting this into their way of being re-elected. Now ask them what is coming on Woodward Avenue very soon?

This raises two points. First, no matter how anyone feels about the proposed monument, if Hovater lied to the Sons of Confederate Veterans about the acceptance of the monument, he needs to face severe censure. We would love to hear more about Hovater's role in any miscommunication concerning the monument.

Second, what is coming to Woodward Avenue? Is it the new jail? Or could it be the once defeated sex offender halfway house?

Colbert County, do you know what your commissioners are doing?
