 'Brake Day' fatality



A deadly turn


No alcohol can be sold
within 1,000 feet
of churches, schools.

 FORT WHITE The first
supermarket in Fort White
should open for business in
time for Thanksgiving 2006,
but a drive-through conven-
ience store proposed for the
town will not be built because
its location is too -close to a
church to allow for beer sales,
according to an existing town
ordinance.
 The Fort White Town
Council addressed the issues
during its regular monthly
meeting Monday night.
 Fort White Mayor Truett
George told council members
he received a letter proposing a
drive-through convenience
store for the "old B.P. station.
now painted yellow."
 The location is the north-
west corner of U.S. 27 and S.R.
47 and currently houses
Joanne's Tubes Rental.


However, adjacent to that prop-
erty and just around the corner
on U.S. 47 is the First Baptist
Church of Fort White.
 George said the town has an
ordinance that prohibits the
 sale of beer
 or wine with-
 in 1,000 feet
 of a church
 or school and
 First Baptist
 is within that
Parnell distance.
 "I think
there will be threats of law-
suits," George said.
 He told the council he felt
the town was on solid ground
not to consider the request
because of the town ordi-
nances.
 Another major itern on the
agenda Monday night was the
annexation of the Deese prop-
erty so plans to build on part of
the property can proceed. The
annexation process should
take about (30 days, Geo-ge
said.
