A 96.3/WGOG NEWS clarification

Our story Wednesday about an appropriation of $500 thousand for Walhalla’s Streetscape budget failed to make clear that the money was approved by the county’s state “C” Fund Committee, chaired by Sam Dickson. Our story made it sound as if the money were granted by the transportation committee of Oconee County Council, chaired by Joel Thrift. The $500 thousand came from state monies allocated to the state’s “C” Fund Committee in Oconee County, which uses such monies for road purposes and the like. We are happy to make this clarification.
