Henry County Board of Commissioners ask county staff to limit dollar stores

McDONOUGH – The Henry County Board of Commissioners has directed county staff to produce an ordinance that would put a limit of some sort on “small-box ‘discount’ stores” in the county.

The stores, defined by the county as dollar stores, “not as large as a Wamart or a Target,” that have popped up around the county and have occasionally popped up close together and have, in the words of some commissioners, “inundated” the county.
