Walgreens buys 1 acre near Wal-Mart for $2.5 million By Noah Chandler The Cullman Times Cullman County Revenue Commissioner Kay Williams Smith announced Walgreens recently purchased a one-acre lot adjacent from Wal-Mart for $2.5 million at Saturday morning’s Democratic Breakfast.
Williams said land in Cullman is becoming scarce so naturally property values are increasing. She said the area around Wal-Mart and property at Smith Lake are the highest priced in the county. Williams also announced her intent to run for reelection next year. Party members were also informed of a temporary resignation from treasurer James Fields. Tim Culpepper made the announcement, explaining to members the resignation was temporary and should last until after the election on Nov. 13. Taking Fields’ place is party member and secretary Jo Burrow. Members in attendance agreed on the switch and the motion was carried. Later, District 12 candidates were given time to address the party. First to speak was Sheila Kretzschmar, who assured Democrats of her capabilities. “I am a hard worker and dedicated. I think I am capable of leading residents of Cullman,” Kretzschmar said. “I can go to Montgomery and work for you.” Next to speak was Ed Flaig. “I don’t want to be the person that wears a three piece suit. I am going to be the mouthpiece for the little people,” Flaig said. “When I go to Montgomery I will represent everyone. I will ask what you want.” The last candidate to speak was James Fields. “We are in this race for a reason –– to give you the best leadership possible,” Fields said. “I need your vote and your help. I only have as much strength as you.”
