Commission members express support for Grey Brothers Cafeteria family and commend emergency planning exercise
Summary
Commissioners and staff commented on the pending closure of Grey Brothers Cafeteria and praised a county emergency planning exercise coordinated near Centerton Elementary, led by Emergency Planning Director Abby Worth.
Several commission members used the June 5 meeting to note community events: Miss Gregory urged the community to keep Grey Brothers Cafeteria and its family in mind as the longtime business faces closure after more than 80 years in operation.
Commissioner Cole and others echoed support for the family and the restaurant’s long presence in town. No formal action was taken; these remarks were delivered during general comment.
Separately, a commission member reported attending a county emergency-planning exercise that simulated a train striking two cars near Centerton Elementary. The member commended Abby Worth, Emergency Planning Director, for organizing the exercise and said the drill revealed issues that participating agencies will address.
Why it matters: the comments reflect local concern for a longstanding family business and highlight continuing interagency emergency-preparedness work affecting public safety near a school.
