Hogan considers noise ordinance after complaints

Community, Police & Government July 7, 2020 , by Susan Kirkland

Sole Commissioner Greg Hogan held a first reading on a noise ordinance at Tuesday’s monthly meeting. The second reading and approval will be held at the August meeting.

Murray County Sole Commissioner Greg Hogan held a first reading on a noise ordinance at Tuesday’s meeting. The ordinance will have a second reading and will be decided on at the August meeting.

“We’ve had some problems with people wanting to play loud music up late into the night and you can’t do that,” Hogan said.

The amendment is Amendment: to the Code of Murray County, Chapter 26, Article II, Section 26-26 and reads:

It shall be unlawful for any person to make, continue, or cause to be made or continued in the unincorporated areas of the county, any loud, unnecessary or unusual sound or noise which either annoys, disturbs, injures or endangers the comfort, repose, health, peace of safety of others in the county, and which is plainly audible to a person of normal hearing ability at a distance of 100 feet from the point of origin of hte sound or noise, or in the case of real property, beyond the property limits from which such sound or noise emanates, whichever is farthest.

This includes radios, phonographs and other machines or devices that produce or reproduce sound.

Tractor trailers on Mount Caramel Church Road

He also heard from a resident of Mount Caramel Church Road who was concerned about tractor trailers speeding down the road. He said he and his neighbors would like the speed limit changed from 45 miles per hour to 35 miles-per-hour.

Hogan said there was more involved than simply changing the signs.

“The road has to be engineered,” he said, adding that it may have already been engineered and the report could be part of the backlog at the Georgia Department of Transportation.

He also added that tractor trailers shouldn’t be using Mount Caramel Church Road.

“I can put up ‘no truck’ signs at each end,” he said.

In other Murray County news:

The county will host it’s annual fireworks show on Oct. 16, in conjunction with the Black Bear Festival. The show is normally held to celebrate July 4.
Hogan approved the Murray County Land Use and Development Planning Commission Meeting minutes.
Anita Thornton was re-appointed to the Murray County Board of Assessors.
Held a first reading to the Code of Murray County, Chapter 6, Article I, Section 6.1 Alcohol Ordinance.
The county purchased a mower/max tractor with a boom and rotary deck for $167,850, paid from the 2019 Special Local Option Sales Tax. This replaces the 20-year-old tractor with 20,000 hours on it.

Huali Floors to Create 315 Jobs, Invest More than $27 Million in Murray County

Business, Community May 27, 2020 , by Lauren Souther

Atlanta, GA – Governor Brian P. Kemp today announced that Huali Floors, a leading manufacturer of resilient flooring, will establish its first U.S. headquarters and manufacturing facility in Murray County. Huali Floors will create at least 315 new jobs and invest more than $27 million in an existing facility.

“We are excited to welcome Huali Floors to Murray County,” said Governor Kemp. “It’s a testament to Georgia’s logistics network and readily available workforce when an innovative company like Huali Floors chooses Georgia to establish their first U.S. manufacturing operation. I congratulate the hardworking Georgians in Murray County on this exciting news, and I am confident Huali will find success in the Peach State.”

Established in Taizhou, Jiangsu Province in 2002, Huali Floors is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of resilient flooring. Huali manufactures a variety of high-quality floor covering products, including luxury vinyl tiles, stone plastic composite, and wood plastic composite flooring.

“Our USA headquarters and manufacturing facility will further support our commitment in bringing world-class service and quality to our customers,” said Philip Yuan, president of Huali Group. “The strong flooring community that the Northwest Georgia area embodies was a determining factor in our commitment, and we want to be part of that spirit. We, Huali Floors, are very excited and proud to be able to call Murray County our USA home and become an active member, as we saw and felt the strength of the community through the project process. We look forward to growing here in Northwest Georgia and are committed to investing and supporting our new community.”

Huali Floors employs more than 2,000 full-time associates with revenues in excess of $360 million. Huali currently utilizes the Port of Savannah and plans to use the Appalachian Regional Port in Murray County. Jobs at the new facility will include administration, manufacturing, and research and development positions. Individuals interested in learning more about the project or employment opportunities can do so by visiting https://murraycountychamber.org/hfusa/.

“The experience of this project from day one has been exactly what a community wants,” said Steve Smith, chairman of the Murray County Industrial Development Authority. “The partnership between the state and our Industrial Development Authority Director, Illya Copeland, has been great. The people from Huali have the best people on the job to make this project a success. We are excited that they chose Murray County as their home in the United States.”

“The reason this project is successful is due to the partnership between our Industrial Development Authority and the Georgia Department of Economic Development,” said Greg Hogan, sole commissioner of Murray County. “From the first visit with Huali, there was a natural feel in the air that told me we would become home to their first U.S. facility. We welcome these wonderful people to our community and couldn’t be more proud of the work put in by the state and our local industrial development authority.”

Georgia was the No. 1 exporter among U.S. states for floor covering products in 2019, with a total export value of $485.4 million, and Northwest Georgia is home to a majority of the state’s floor covering industries. The new inland Appalachian Regional Port plays a key role in Georgia’s supply chain network.

“It speaks volumes that Huali Floors sees the benefit in the Port of Savannah and the connection to the Appalachian Regional Port, and plans to locate their very first U.S-based manufacturing facility 9.5 miles away from the terminal,” said Wesley Barrell, Georgia Ports Authority regional manager of strategic operations. “Huali’s projected volume will be handled with efficiency and precision, we look forward to a long-standing relationship both at the Appalachian Regional Port and the Port of Savannah.

Georgia Department of Economic Development (GDEcD) Regional Project Manager Taylor Kielty and Project Manager Sandra Yang represented the Global Commerce division in partnership with Georgia Quick Start, the Murray County Industrial Development Authority, Georgia EMC, Georgia Ports Authority, and Georgia Power.

“We are thrilled to hear that Huali Floors will be calling Georgia its U.S. home. By locating here, the company will not only benefit from our logistics infrastructure, including the Appalachian Regional Port, but also from becoming a part of our business community,” said GDEcD Commissioner Pat Wilson. “Winning this competitive project will have a big impact in Murray County and the state as Huali will continue to do business with industry leaders and attract new suppliers to the region. We want to thank all of our business development partners for bringing this investment to Northwest Georgia.”

How it spreads

There is currently no vaccine to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus.
The virus is thought to spread mainly from person-to-person.
- Between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet).
- Through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes.

These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs.

Clean your hands often

- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
- If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

Avoid close contact

Avoid close contact with people who are sick
Put distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community. This is especially important for people who are at higher risk of getting very sick.

Contact COVID-19 hotline

The State of Georgia has a new COVID-19 hotline. If you believe that you are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 or have been exposed to the novel coronavirus, please contact your primary care doctor or an urgent care clinic. Please do not show up unannounced at an emergency room or health care facility.

Hotline:

(844) 442-2681
