Residents in Jackson and Clarke counties are teaming up to oppose a 701-acre industrial park. It’s planned for U.S. Highway 129 just south of Arcade. The project would provide about 7.5 million square feet of space making it one of Georgia's 10 largest industrial zones. Developers say it would provide 4,000 new jobs and 5-million in tax revenue. The regional development center recommended that Jackson County commissioners reject the project, citing its size, the amount of traffic it would generate and its clash with adjoining land use.

Former Arcade police chief cleared
A former Arcade, Georgia police chief has been cleared of accusations he fixed traffic tickets. The Jackson County district attorney has closed the book on the file of Dennis Bell. A six-month investigation by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation found no evidence to support the accusation that Bell destroyed original documents in a 2006 DUI case.
Bell resigned from his position as chief in November after the Arcade City Council got an anonymous letter from a former employee accusing Bell of fixing traffic tickets and falsifying his time cards. The council's internal investigation found that most of the
allegations were unfounded. But council members asked the GBI to look into an accusation that Bell disposed of citations in the DUI case.
