Meeting of the Calhoun County Commission Highlights: Check the presentations support local foundations.

Calhoun County, Al – The Calhoun County Commission held its regular monthly session with a strong focus on support and commitment in the community on Thursday, May 8, 2025. The meeting was emphasized in two important review presentations, which reflects the district's commitment to the public service and the historical preservation.

The first presentation honored the Alabama Law Enforcement Appreciation Foundation (Aleaf) as part of the Law Enforcement Week. The Commission presented Ameaf a check to support their ongoing work in recognizing and raising law enforcement officers in the entire region. The funds will contribute to meals and recognition events for civil servants in Calhoun County.

“I would like to thank the Commission for their unshakable support,” said Henry Mullinax from ATEAF. “These efforts show our civil servants that the community is behind them and reminds them that they are valued and valued.”

The Choccolocco Heritage Foundation immediately received a check of 10,000 US dollars for the restoration of a historical school building in Old Choccolocco. Georgia Calhoun, who represents the foundation, shared the vision of reviving the building for community events and pedagogical use. The article marked a milestone in its donation campaigns, which exceeded its initial goal of $ 10,000.

“We want to preserve and honor our history,” said Georgia Calhoun, an important advocate of the project. “This building has housed generations of our community and has an immense historical meaning.”

Commissioner Danny Shears applauded both efforts and said: “It is about building a future and at the same time honoring our past. Investing in these projects means investing in the structure of our community.”

In addition to the presentations, the Commission moved efficiently through a number of agenda items. They unanimously accepted the agenda and the minutes of the previous meeting. As part of the old company, the Commission approved several disturbing detachments and layoffs for real estate in Anniston and Piedmont.
