Here's latest entry in the Communities in Transition series for @thestate. I took a look at Rosewood, the Columbia neighborhood that is working to retain its charm amid broader growth and change across the city and region. @StatephotoTracy shot pics.

Months ago, I received documents showing the city had spent $17,000 with a PR firm on "media relations & FOIA assistance." A FOIA request revealed that number was actually closer to $27,000 and detailed how city officials communicated after receiving a public records request.
The city of Cayce paid a communications firm more than $26,000 for a campaign to promote its police department after a reporter’s public records request ignited concerns from city officials about a negative news story from those documents.

James Brown had a dream to leave his fortune to provide scholarships for children.
18 years after his death, none have been given out.
For @thestate, I investigated how the theft of millions and 2 decades of legal battles have held up his estate. thestate.com/news/local/crim…
