Change at the top of Oconee Planning Commission

The gavel at Oconee Planning Commission is in new hands.  During its first 2016 meeting, the commissioners last night elected David Ownbey chairman in place of Gwen McPhail.  Ownbey and McPhail contested for the position, decided by a vote of the commission.  In a second vote, William Childress defeated McPhail for the position of vice chair.
