Look again... Tucker's Strongest Supporters May Not Even Live Here!

We understand that the city vote is over, but we still think the Tucker community deserves to know the truth about how we got where we are today ... a city voted for in a referendum and elections taking place in under a month (March 1), runoffs March 29. We got here based on a lot of involved people ... some of whom we are now finding out don't even live in Tucker at all.

On the home page of Tucker 2015, you will find this photo (below) which appears to feature the smiling, happy faces of the Tucker residents who fought to incorporate the small town community into a city, right? Well, look again... most, if not all, of them are not Tucker residents at all.

These are not the ONLY Tucker city supporters with residency issues! Stay tuned ...

Welcome to Smoke Rise, Soon to be Tucker, GA

This could be the change that residents will see if Tucker 2015 is successful in getting its referendum nto a ballot and voters approve it. The driving force behind the city of Tucker has been the leadership within the community known as "Smoke Rise, GA." Smoke Rise residents currently have addresses that say "Stone Mountain, GA" and many of them worked hard in order to create a separate identity for themselves, petitioning the U.S. Post Office to change their official name to "Smoke Rise." While the Post Office did not agree to change the official name, they did agree to allow "Smoke Rise" as a recognized alternative to "Stone Mountain" that could be used interchangeably as long as it accompanied their 30087 zip code. It is important to note that these residents did not ask the Post Office to recognize their use of "Tucker" as an acceptable alternative. They asked to be called "Smoke Rise." It appears t...

UPDATED: Szubski Lands Project Manager Position with JE Dunn Construction

It seems that congratulations are in order for two of Tucker's most "upwardly mobile" residents: Ben and Sonja Szubski, active promoters of the city of Tucker effort since it started. We wanted to make sure our readers were aware of how there is a real and very serious connection between the leadership driving this city effort, and the development groups seeking to tear down and destroy (so they can then buy cheap and rebuild) what we know and love about Tucker. First, here is the announcement from JE Dunn Construction: $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Ben Szubski Joins JE Dunn Construction as Project Manager Press release from the issuing company Monday, June 30th, 2014 Ben Szubski is extending his 18-year career in construction by joining JE Dunn Construction Company as a project manager, the company announced.

Just Like That Your Privacy Was Sold

Here is a helpful link to the way the US Senate voted today on allowing ISP (or Internet Service Providers) to collect data on every person in their database and now they can SELL that data to "advertisers." The only hope for stopping this bill is to ask the President to veto it. He is not a big fan of "wiretapping" which this is very similar to, but he also is a little busy right now. It should really tell you something,though. When Congress wants something, they find a way to get it done. http ://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=115&session=1&vote=00094#top
