Part three, opinion: Let’s better protect taxpayers
My wife, Susan, and I bought our house in Edgar in 1987 for $39,500. The home, built in 1917, was originally a farmhouse located on the outskirts of town which featured a small red wooden barn. The house suffered a top floor fire in the mid-1930s. People told us they could see the house fire flames all the way from downtown Edgar.

The SCS Athens site at 713 Caroline St. plans for six multi-family buildings and three building styles that feature 64 market rate apartment homes with 14 floor plans. Each apartment home has a private entrance, an attached or detached garage, private laundry and patio or balcony.
