 MDJ Script/ Top Stories for September 24th Publish Date:  September 24th    Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, September 24th and Happy Birthday to Jim Henson I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Mableton chemical plant applies for air quality permit for new process areaCobb to consider extending student housing moratoriumMan arrested for shooting at victim’s car in Mableton payment dispute All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 3 STORY 1: Mableton chemical plant applies for air quality permit for new process area  A Mableton chemical plant, Compass Chemical International, wants to expand. They’ve filed for an air quality permit with Georgia’s Environmental Protection Division to add a new process area at their Buckner Road site. The plan? To produce a proprietary lubricant additive—an alkyl phosphite blend (with or without dispersants, if you’re into the details). Mayor Michael Owens struck a balance: “We welcome businesses that invest in Mableton, but safety and clean air come first.” Councilwoman Patricia Auch added, “Permits like this are routine. If they meet the standards, it’s not necessarily harmful.” The permit’s under review. Public comments? Due by Oct. 17. STORY 2: Cobb to consider extending student housing moratorium  The Cobb County Board of Commissioners is gearing up to vote on extending a moratorium on student housing applications—again. If approved, it’ll be another 180 days of “pause” on new developments, pushing the freeze into spring 2026. This isn’t the first time. The ban started in October 2024, got extended in March, and now, here we are. Why? Kennesaw State’s booming enrollment has outpaced housing, and zoning battles have made things messy. Chair Lisa Cupid recently admitted students are struggling. Commissioner Keli Gambrill? Not a fan. “KSU needs to handle this,” she said bluntly. STORY 3: Man arrested for shooting at victim’s car in Mableton payment dispute Cesar Alexis Velazquez, 23, from Douglasville, is facing some serious charges after a heated argument over a cell phone repair turned dangerous. On Aug. 21, around 11:30 p.m., Velazquez allegedly fired two shots at a red 2011 Kia Optima outside a home on Joseph Club Drive in Mableton. The victim, who owns a phone repair business, had run back inside for safety. The dispute? Velazquez refused to pay for fixing a water-damaged phone but still left with it—gun in hand, according to police. He’s now charged with aggravated assault and theft of services. Arrested Sept. 9, he’s being held without bond. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 3 STORY 4: KSU student named Newman Civic Fellow  Kennesaw State senior Deja Boney has a knack for making a difference—and now, she’s a 2025 Newman Civic Fellow. It’s a big deal, a national recognition for students who lead with heart and hustle in their communities. Deja, an information systems major with an IT minor, has been everywhere—organizing cleanups, mentoring through Black Women Empowered, and tackling poverty with Circles Cobb. “It’s humbling,” she said, “to know the work I’m doing is seen beyond campus.” Her journey started with an OwlsServe Day, and now she’s a three-term KSU Service Fellow. Next stop? Chicago in October, connecting with other changemakers. STORY 5: Tickets for An Evening with David Sedaris on sale Oct. 17 Mark your calendars: David Sedaris—yes, the David Sedaris—is coming to Atlanta for one night only. The bestselling author and NPR favorite will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. on May 19 at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center (2800 Cobb Galleria Parkway). Fresh off the release of A Carnival of Snackery and Pretty Ugly, Sedaris will share new stories, sharp observations, and probably a few laugh-out-loud moments. There’s also a Q&A and book signing. Tickets drop Oct. 17 at 10 a.m. Don’t wait. This one’s gonna sell out fast. Break: STORY 6: Pageant highlights opening night of North Georgia State Fair  Glitter, gowns, and big smiles lit up the stage at the Miss North Georgia State Fair Pageant, kicking off opening night at Jim Miller Park. Over 40 young ladies, from toddlers to college students, took their turn in the spotlight, each sparkling in their favorite dresses. Six winners were crowned, earning tiaras, banners, flowers, and fair passes—and the chance to serve as community ambassadors, riding in parades throughout the year. The big title, Miss NGSF, went to 19-...
