Leaders in Chiefland, Bronson and Levy County reflected on 2007 and looked forward to 2008 when they were approached to do so by the newspaper.
Chiefland City Manager Grady Hartzog Sr. said annexation and development in Chiefland in 2007 is a noteworthy accomplishment. The city's growth in acreage combined with potential business interests coming into Chiefland are positive aspects of the past year, he said.
The purchase of land for wellhead protection is another constructive accomplishment by city leaders this year, Hartzog said. There is excellent water in the area north of Chiefland and south of Fanning Springs, he said, and this will meet future needs.
Another current necessity, which is being met by an upcoming event, Hartzog said, is the proposed construction of Tri-County Hospital. It is scheduled to break ground by October of 2008.
The city manager is happy with the civic spirit of city leaders.
"I'm excited about the positive attitude of our elected officials," Hartzog said. "They are planning for the future of Chiefland, and they are involved with businesses and schools."
