Grants and bids, Law, Transportation, Water, and Roof Cleaning @ LCC 2019-11-11

In a session of house-cleaning (including literally),
Lowndes County is updating its Revision of the County Occupation Tax Ordinance,

with detailed definitions and tax classifications for every occupation in the county.

The mysterious
Joint Ordinance the
Planning Commission keeps cryptically alluding to
turns out to be about revising the charter of the Planning Commission
to add Remerton, to note Lowndes County now handles GLPC’s budget, and other updates.

The county is applying for a
Georgia Department of Transportation Local Maintenance & Improvement Grant (LMIG) for resurfacing roads, many of them in subdivisions.

And a GDOT grant for
the MIDS on-call bus system.

The county is approving
Approval of the Submittal Resolution for the CDBG-EIP Grant Application for Street Paving and Drainage Improvements to Support the Arglass Project,
with
$750,000 to come from CDBG-EIP funds, and the remainder of $325,591 from the Valdosta-Lowndes Development Authority.
The county also has
A Resolution to Support Eliminating Through Tractor Trailer Truck Traffic Downtown Valdosta.
And it is fixing a misfiling of the deed for Chitty Park by

transfering it to VLPRA for VLPRA to then transfer back to Lowndes County.

Sewage will be aided by a new
Hart Road Lift Station Pump,
and safety by
Bids for a New Generator for 911.
