Update 2025-03-23:

Packet: Utilities in Lowndes County Commission Annual Planning Meeting 2025-03-06.

Here is what we got in response to an open records request for the agenda and board packet for the Lowndes County, Georgia, three-day Annual Planning Meeting,
which you may recall

was held on Jekyll Island with one day’s notice to the public.

There are packet materials for many of the agenda items, including
Finance (in some detail), SPLOST VIII, VLPRA (in great detail), TIA I and II, Comprehensive Plan, and E-911.

Lowndes County Commission, Annual Retreat 2025-03-05-7, Agenda and Board Packet

I don’t seem to see materials for South Health DIstrict, Utilities, Public Works, or Lowndes County Fire Rescue.
If any of those are in here, somebody please point them out.

Not listed on the agenda there are long sections by the Engineering Department,
and lists of the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee staff.

The board packet, received in response to a LAKE open records request,

is on the LAKE website.
