Craft Beer tasting on the Green

A vote cast last night at Walhalla City Hall divided the mayor and the council practically down the middle. Sister station WGOG reports that by a margin of one vote, the council agreed to allow the Walhalla Chamber of Commerce to stage a craft beer tasting event on the downtown green during Oktoberfest weekend. The vote was three in favor, two against, and one abstention. Council members Jennifer Crawford, Tjay Bagwell, and Danny Woodward voted yes, while David Underwood and Mayor Danny Edwards voted no. Josh Holliday, a member of the Sertoma Club, which operates a beer sales tent on the grounds of Oktoberfest, abstained, citing a conflict.
