Metro Atlanta-- Chippers, chainsaws and the hum of air conditioning units-the sounds of recovery around the metro as storm cleanup continues. Thursday night's storms left nearly 200,000 people without power, a number that dwindled going into the weekend. Crews worked through the night to clear roads and restore power. Saturday morning thousands of homes were back online.

"I have an appreciation for the AC, it's comfortable and nice to have," laughed Mary Goodman of Dunwoody.

In the Bishop Lake community of East Cobb, the Gustafsons are having to live in their RV after their house was destroyed by a falling tree.

"We've been here 21 years, we bought this house and it was a wreck, we totally rebuilt it, rebuilt the property over the years and now it's gone," said Ron Gustafson.

He plans to rebuild right on the same spot.

ATLANTA -- As Fulton County breaks ground on the first of eight new libraries planned, there is still no decision on where an estimated $8 million a year will come to staff them.

In 2005, voters approved borrowing $275 million to build and renovate libraries.

It is a two phase project.  Phase one includes constructing eight new libraries and two major renovations.  Phase two covers 23 renovations and the building of a brand new central library downtown.

County Commissioner Rob Pitts calls the library issue his "baby" and said he has no doubts about finding the money for staff and maintenance.

"This is not new. We knew we'd need to find roughly $8 million a year for staffing from day one. It's just that we're at the point now where we need to have serious conversations," said Pitts.

Keep in mind Pitts and other commissioners already have to cut an estimated $100 million from the 2014 budget.
