Flowery Branch is looking to crank up what could be its biggest-ever road resurfacing program. City Council voted Thursday night to approve a Georgia Department of Transportation Local Maintenance Improvement Grant that, along with city money, will add up to $284,310 in downtown road improvements. City Planner James Riker told the council that, according to Johnny Thomas, the city’s public works director, the city has repaved a total of .2 miles in city streets using state assistance or on its own in Thomas’ two decades on the job.
