❤️Protect Pickens. 
 ❤️ Stop annexation tied to high-density development. 
 ❤️Stop Urban Sprawl.
👉 Your Voice Matters. 

 We thrive in the charm of our small town and the tranquility of the surrounding community. This could be disrupted by the proposed annexation of parcel 4180-00-46-1109 and the development of 140 or more high density housing units located at Mauldin Lake and Wolf Creek School Roads. Unwanted development threatens not only the aesthetics of our community but the kind of life we've chosen for ourselves and our children. 

Like many small towns across America, we face the risk of rapid urban encroachment, but we strongly believe that development must not compromise our rural roots and lifestyle.  

We affirm our need to preserve our local identity, to maintain the charm that drew us to this place and made it our home. We're calling on the City of Pickens Mayor and Council to halt the annexation and consider the broader impact this action could have on our community. Please, join us in enabling our town and surrounding community to retain its character by signing this petition.
