Is Fulton stepping on Johns Creek?

The folks in Johns Creek said they wanted to become a city because taxpayers were tired of being stepped on by the county.

Now they say the Fulton County school board has just stomped out plans to create their town center.

The board has announced it purchased a 42-acre tract for a new high school, effectively killing a plan among residents, developers, and the Fulton County Commission to make this area at State Bridge and Medlock Bridge roads a community hub.

The move also aborted a quiet plan being discussed to plant the new City Hall on the land. See related story

Should the board have waited to make this purchase, or should they have consulted with the organizers of the new city before buying the land?
