• Bowdon to create historic districts, prompting concern (times-georgian.com) — Bowdon officials are moving toward creating several local historic districts that could restrict exterior changes to many homes over 50 years old, while offering potential tax credits and higher resale values. Residents packed a public hearing to debate property rights, neighborhood preservation, and noise from new development, and the city plans further updates and hearings as the proposal advances.
