Decaturish reports that word from Monday’s City Commission meeting is that new sidewalks, lighting and trees should finally be added to the Oakhurst Business District in Spring or Early Summer next year, according to Deputy City Manager Hugh Saxon.

Federal funding approvals have held up this process for the past seven years or so.

Decaturish reports that Terra Mater Salon is moving after 24 years on West Ponce…

After 24 years in one spot, Terra Mater Salon is moving down the street.

The hair salon will reopen early next year at 224 East Ponce de Leon Ave., near Get Cigars, Terra Mater owner Elizabeth Rosel said.

I’m a bit suspicious of any Terra Mater news ever since Decatur CD had me buy into an April Fools joke that they were taking over the space and opening a brew pub/CD store a few years back!
