If you own, rent, or may inherit property locally, it’s worth checking these notices closely to see whether any affect your home, land, or legal rights.

Others arrested came from Centre, Piedmont, Huntsville and Georgia, while the county jail currently houses 83 inmates. All individuals are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court.

• Rice leads slate of SBC officers • Biblical Recorder (brnow.org) — A Gadsden-based ministry leader, Craig Carlisle of First Baptist and the Etowah Baptist Association, has been elected first vice president of the Southern Baptist Convention during this week’s national meeting in Orlando.
