One victim of last week's wind and rain was the historic Drennon Christian Church.

One corner of the church's roof was peeled back in the storm.

Despite the damage, the church did not cancel its Sunday services.

Workers draped a tarp across the hole that tore into the church's aluminum roof. The storm caused more than $17,000 in damages to insulation, rafters and dry walling, according to initial estimates from Homes Plus Construction, the contractor handling repairs.

In a split vote, the Henry County Planning and Zoning Commission's Board of Adjustments temporarily suspended a conditional use permit, effectively shutting down a local business for 60 days.

The move came at the end of a two-hour meeting in which Board of Adjustment members reviewed the entire conditional use permit — originally granted in June of last year — as well as a list of complaints and violations.
