Another week, and we’ve published still more stories you can’t find anywhere else but East Cobb News:
- A busy East Cobb grocery store will close for renovations for several months;
- Softball parents are upset over plans to renovate Shaw Park that they worry could squeeze fields for their girls;
- Crime stories about a clubhouse burglary and a doctor charged with Medicaid fraud.
There’s no Extra! Extra! Read All About It! here—this is what we do at East Cobb News, along with our ongoing coverage of of county government and schools, traffic and road construction, zoning and development, local business news, restaurants and real estate, calendar listings, recognitions and awards, and more.
