After discussion Monday morning, on Tuesday evening the Lowndes County Commission will approve spending $2 million tax dollars, mostly in $1.6 million on Lake Park Bellville Road, including relocating water and sewer lines. There’s another $90,000 on Hightower Road and Cooper Road NE, Right of Way Purchases.
| Cost | What |
|---|---|
| $1,655,975.00 | Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) Contract Item Agreement/Memorandum of Understanding Lake Park Bellville Road |
| $280,193.75 | FY 2020 Hazard Mitigation Assistance Grant Application |
| $90,670.31 | Approval of Hightower Road and Cooper Road NE, Right of Way Purchases |
| $29,400.00 | Cybersecurity Maturity Tier 1 |
| $12,500.00 | Agreement with SGRC to Develop 2021 Lowndes County Comprehensive Plan Update |
| $20,000.00 | FY 2020 Juvenile Justice Delinquency Prevention Grant (to be fully reimbursed) |
| $2,068,739.06 | Total |
REZ-2020-20 Ballyntyne 6712 Clyattstone Road is back yet again, this time probably to be improved. The agenda sheet says no cost for that rezoning, but remember last time we added up more than $3 million the county has already spent on Clyattstone Road and water and sewer infrastructure.
The least expensive item with dollars listed is FY 2020 Juvenile Justice Delinquency Prevention Grant, because it will be fully reimbursed.
Also inexpensive and probably cost-effective is Agreement with SGRC to Develop 2021 Lowndes County Comprehensive Plan Update.
