Chatham County Board of Commissioner Chair Walter Petty expressed appreciation to both Store Manager Christopher Smith and Chris Ehrenfeld of Domicile Realty for their efforts in setting up the employment office.  “We are excited about the new jobs that this project will bring, and thank Christopher and Chris for getting the employment center up and running in a very short time frame,” Petty said.
