It's just a preliminary engineering report, but the Hamilton County Commission agenda for Wednesday's meeting has a potentially game changing resolution for frustrated, traffic-wracked Ooltewah residents.

Whatever Michele Reneau was peddling in last week's Republican state House primary, District 27 voters were buying.

A $260 million bond issue to be voted on next week by the Hamilton County Commission mentions six specific schools that will benefit from the proposal, but the total amount associated with the schools most assuredly will not come close to building them.

Three years ago this month, we wrote of Chattanooga's collaboration with the National Recreation and Park Association and other partners to revitalize a park in what was once called "the most promising residential tract ever opened" in the city.

We don't think Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee will lose sleep over the remark. After all, he's got a state where people want to move, a state in decent financial shape, a family company he helped grow and expand, and a wife who has made a successful recovery from cancer.

Moses Freeman, who went from protesting city actions 50 years ago to Chattanooga city councilman, has died.

He made the announcement at 9 p.m. on Aug. 8, 1974, 50 years ago this week.
