The Fayette County Commission during its April 27 meeting voted to not pay nearly $50,000 in disputed fees that the Northwest Alabama Economic Development Authority (C3) says the commission owes. All commissioners were present for the meeting. Commissioner Barry Corkren said that he has seen very little actual benefit from the C3 organization during the past few years in the Fayette County area. He made a motion to not pay the amount asked for by C3, and the motion was seconded by Commissioner Billy Joe Rogers.
