Legislators see forward thinking as a key to development

Now more than ever, a community’s economic development takes some innovative thinking.

That was the view of Georgia House member John Corbett at last month’s annual Waycross-Ware County Chamber of Commerce Legislative Luncheon. Corbett, who represents Dist. 174, joined Dist. 176 colleague James Burchett at the forum of business and governmental leaders as well as citizens at the REA Building in the Historic Railway Depot.

The Republican legislators represent parts of Ware County along with all or parts of other counties in South Georgia. They fielded a variety of questions touching on numerous subjects during the hour-long session.
