Demorest Council Takes Up Request for Public Hearing From Baker and Smith
Demorest City Council placed a request from Alan Baker and Philip Smith for a public hearing on its May 5, 2026 agenda, marking the first documented step in bringing the matter before the council. The request appeared under the agenda’s consideration section, meaning council members were asked to take it up at that meeting; the agenda itself does not say what action, if any, followed.

The next concrete public development would be a subsequent City Council action or meeting record showing whether the request was approved, denied, deferred or placed on a future agenda. Until such a record identifies a decision or sets a date, Demorest residents do not know whether a public hearing will occur or what opportunity they may have to participate.
This matter rests on a single official record so far. It stays compact until a later record adds to it.
