The Times is reporting a huge leak in government today. Secret meetings have been held to discuss a proposed move of some Hall County Government offices. Most of the offices are in downtown Gainesville. The downtown benefits from the county employees spending money for lunch, breakfast, and gas. Maybe. If the offices do move, small businesses might get hurt.

And … all the discussions were in Executive sessions. So who leaked the news? Or it that why did they leak the news?

Any way, it’s out in public. Maybe it should have been from the beginning. The county is trying to buy the old Liberty Mutual building with 38 acres.

If they don’t buy it, who the Hell will in this real estate market? But it cheap or let it rot.
