MAZ again, Lake Alapaha, Emergency Management and Liability, but no Sabal Trail @ LCC 2015-07-27

While

Dougherty County, Albany, and their state and federal reps



plan a joint opposition meeting to the Sabal Trail fracked methane pipeline invader, there’s nothing about that pipeline
on
Monday’s
8:30 AM

agenda
of the Lowndes County Commission.
Three items on

emergency response,


emergency planning
,
and
911 operations,
plus one on
liability,
but nothing about the
invading pipeline soft target.

The highly controversial

Moody Activity Zoning Districts (MAZ)

are back, despite massive opposition.
The Planning Commission will hear MAZ again Monday evening,
and because there’s only one day from then until the County Commission
can vote on MAZ Tuesday, the County Planner says:

I do not expect the full versions of the ULDC to be ready in time for the July 28th LCBOC meeting.

So how can Commissioners make an informed decision?

Also requiring a public hearing Tuesday evening is a
Beer, Wine and Liquor License – Lake Park Pub – 4991 US Hwy. 41 S., plus another without a hearing, for
Lake Park Pub – 4991 US Hwy. 41 S.

And Lowndes County Commissioners are ready to
sign an agreement
about the
$16,915 to upgrade a water main to subsidize a developer

they agreed on last month
.
This was after

the Zoning Board of Appeals in February

refused a variance for the same developer not to connect to county water.
And that developer subsidy is more than

the $15,957 the county declined to provide to study public transportation and truck routing
,
even though the City of Valdosta, the state of Georgia, and the federal
government already approved the vast majority of the funding.

They plan to reappoint Jim Scruggs to the Construction Board Of Adjustments And Appeals.
And there are two

LOWNDES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
