"We just got together at a dining room table and decided we needed to start a city!" That's all it took. Plus, a few years, dozens of maps, multiple name changes, tens of thousands of dollars and land grabbing from our neighbors to satisfy our own political agendas, and wa la! Look at us now! It's official. We're LaVista (The View). Hills, That is. And, if you don't like us; we don't care! For details, see today's AJC: HERE or Decaturish story: HERE
This is a blog about the small town of Tucker, Georgia, which is located just outside the major metropolitan area of Atlanta, Georgia. On March 13, 2013, the residents of Tucker learned that a small group of politically motivated individuals who lived nearby wanted to incorporate using Tucker's commercial areas and leaving many of the long-time residents on the outskirts of the new city. This is the story of how the residents have fought back to preserve history and their own community.
