What this means
The path-rule update is not yet a final ordinance; the advisory group will return with draft changes for council consideration. The hockey club may proceed toward an agreement that would allow practice time, subject to city requirements and scheduling. Council also agreed to revisit Ordinance 1218 in October and explore an ordinance banning the feeding of deer or other wildlife. A community survey found that 87% of 499 respondents rated Peachtree City’s quality of life positively, while 88% rated the community’s overall safety positively.
