Cobb approves third Wal-Mart store

Cobb Commissioners unanimously approved a zoning change Tuesday that would allow for a Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market in east Cobb.

Wal-Mart plans to renovate a building in the Olde Mill shopping center close to Roswell and Old Canton Roads. The store will employ between75 and 100 people, and will be the third store set to open in the county next year.

A few residents concerned about noise and crime opposed the store at a zoning meeting earlier this month.
