• Gondola debate continues ahead of planning commission vote (wdef.com) — Lookout Mountain’s planning commission will vote Wednesday evening on whether to recommend changing town ordinances so Rock City can build a new gondola station in its parking lot. Neighbors have organized a visible “red-out” opposition campaign, citing traffic, tourism growth, and quality-of-life concerns, while Rock City leaders argue the gondola would reduce car traffic and keep the attraction competitive.
