Mayor Knox Ross
Makeover includes new logo
Pelahatchie's muscadine-laced logo is now embedded in the pavement of the town's main intersection, part of a $1.5 million makeover changing the face of the eastern Rankin County town.
The stamped concrete, located at Brooks and Second streets, features the logo the town developed about three years ago.
"What we're trying to do is use that logo consistently in everything we do," Pelahatchie Mayor Knox
Pelahatchie is 1 of only a few communities in Mississippi certified by the National Weather service as a StormReady community.
StormReady communities are better
prepared to save lives from the onslaught of severe weather through better planning, education, and awareness.
No community is storm proof, but StormReady communities
can help save lives through proper planning and education. Rankin County’s StormReady status was recently recertified through 2010.
