300 Sign Petition to Bring Mexican Restaurant to City

Take a look at what's happening in local business:

300 Want Taqueria in Town

Stone Mountain city councilwoman Nan Nash tells Patch that she has gathered at least 300 signatures on a petition she started to try getting a Mexican restaurant to the city.

Nash said she had no idea that there would be so many people interested in seeing Taqueria Los Hermanos  in Stone Mountain Village. She said she's still accepting signatures (come by Stone Mountain Old Post Office Emporium, at 5379 E. Mountain St. to sign) before she contacts the owner about all the local folks eager for their restaurant to set up in town. Stay tuned.
