Mayor
Joe Johnson is presenting the Key to the City to former County Commissioner,
Robert Lane, for his assistance in helping the city of Eufaula with many of its
growing projects, while saving the city many thousands of dollars. Robert
played a lead role in helping Eufaula in many ways. In particular, he helped to
extend Front Street, connecting it to Lakeshore Drive (behind Braum’s), thus opening
that area up for development. Not only did this construction allow that area to
develop, but it alleviated the traffic congestion on Main Street, as well. For
Mr. Lane’s assistance, Johnson got the city to name the stretch after the Commissioner,
himself. It is now called Robert’s Lane.
