It could be a number of reasons why economic investment hasn't shined down on Powder Springs'…Read More downtown area. Some of the probably reasons for this is that powder springs residents are not seen walking downtown despite the proximity of residential dwellings. Also, a lack of areas to park one's car near downtown could also be a culprit. One oddity I found is that the City has access and developed some high quality trail systems promoting alternative modes of transportation, however you drive down Marietta street and you discover there are no bike racks what so ever. Very counterproductive, due to the fact that their continued trail system is intended to link downtown with the outlying neighborhoods.

A couple of years ago, I was looking for a place to locate my business, and looked at a few rental…Read More spaces on the Powder Springs square. I ended up renting an office in Hiram instead, simply because there was just more going on there and I felt the area had better local amenities. My business doesn't depend on retail-type drive-by traffic (I'm an enterprise IT security consultant), but the sheer desolation of the Powder Springs square made me look elsewhere. It's a vicious cycle, really - the Square is a ghost town, and businesses like mine don't want to locate in an area like that, so the square will remain desolate until something changes to make the square more attractive. The big problem is that I'm not sure the Powder Springs government has the ability to make any kind of change that would actually do so. You mention that you're thinking of running for Mayor - if you run and are elected, what would you do to attract businesses to the square?

The first thing I would do is to try and determine why businesses are leaving, and why potential…Read More businesses dont consider Powder Springs. I have already spoke to some who advised me the government here is next to impossible to deal with starting here, and if here already a pain to stay. What does that mean? I am digging deeper. If Powder Springs has useless regulations that are political, then that needs to change. Second I look to communities that have changed, and improved. Go see the Village Green in Smyrna. Smyrna was a joke and now the downtown is vibrant. Alive and inviting. No reason whatsoever Powder Springs cannot use that same business model and thrive. The company I work for is looking for office warehouse space. I found several nice buildings in Powder SPrings. My broker advised to not even consider Powder Springs. Very sad.

For example the one you quoted have many different interpretations and meanings, most of which do not even indirectly relate to homosexuality. On another note...you seem to be a student of the Bible and ancient texts, as well as someone who is versed in many subjects. We have small group discussions on some of these topics, sometimes at my home, other friends' homes, and sometimes at coffee shops or other public places. And I often seek out those whose opinions or understandings may be different than mine to participate--not to debate whose opinion is right (though certainly some of that takes place) but to learn from each other and try to find some commonalities. If you think you might like to participate sometime feel free to contact me directly at pilgrim1@mindspring.com (and this goes for other bloggers too).
