📰 News we're reading

• Why Perry hit pause on new liquor store approvals (41nbc.com) — Perry residents and would‑be shop owners should know the city council has placed a six‑month moratorium on approving new liquor store licenses while it reviews local rules and state regulations. Officials say they want to stay pro‑business but better control where liquor stores are located and avoid clusters, even as nearby Warner Robins weighs its own tighter rules.
   

• County speaks on upcoming new Bonaire water tower (hhjonline.com) — Houston County is finishing a massive new water tower on Old Perry Road in Bonaire that will boost storage by 1.5 million gallons and improve reliability during summer peaks. County leaders note Bonaire’s population now rivals Perry’s pre-boom size, and say this project is part of a long-term plan for more storage, mains, and treatment capacity.
