Darrell Overstreet presides over first Chamber meeting of 2006 Judge Vaughan gives state-of-the-county address; Mayor Bell delivers state-of-the city account to first Columbia-Adair County Chamber of Commerce meeting of 2006 By Linda Waggener linda@columbiamagazine.com Darrell Overstreet welcomed members and guests to the first meeting of the Chamber of commerce in the new year, and the first meeting under his leadership as new President. A large crowd was in attendance considering the heavy rains on Tuesday, January 17, 2006, at Cranmer Dining Center on the campus of Lindsey Wilson College. He recognized the "awesome job of past president Richard Phelps" and said that he wants to see the organization build on the foundation. At the recent board meeting, the following ideas were among goals embraced for 2006:
Judge Vaughan reports highlights, shares secrets Judge Jerry Vaughan reviewed many of the items as have been highlighted in Fiscal Court reports as 2005 came to a close, and said, "We are blessed with physical and mental ability to be here another January. My secret for success in New Year. I'm free to share secrets with you since I'm not seeking re-election: set aside 8 hours a day for work and 8 hours a day for sleep, and be sure those hours don't overlap." Judge Vaughan noted that the Renaissance grant working now. The historic courthouse is being renovated. Judge Vaughan said ideas from community are needed now as to how the building will generate income to sustain itself after the new justice center takes its income to the new location. Some ideas being tossed around are whether it will become a tourism enhancing center or possibly an arts and crafts center? Mayor Pat Bell commends builders of the community He said, "I am very proud to have worked as a team with everyone on the council and staff as well as with the county officials, to accomplish all we have this far." The Mayor said the future looks bright, with new roads, the new elementary school, the new Adair County Justice Center, Majestic House Boats new building and many other projects underway. "I'd like to commend builders like Don Franklin, Mike Stevens, Tommy Grider, Terry Harvey, Richard Walker, Joe Pyles -- there might be some of those you don't care much for, but I'll tell you one thing: everything they've put in this town and county has been a plus, so I like 'em good and I'll continue to support them," the Mayor said.
