Videos: Lost Maps, New Vice, Lake Park R-P, Lowndes County C-G, Valdosta R-M @ GLPC 2014-11-24

Complete agenda? Maps? Election process? Calendar? But few people were there to notice these things missing.



At the Work Session we had all maps and things to show you,
but between then and now the digital copies have vanished
off of both laptops.
And we are sort of
at a loss as to where they went but they’re gone.
So if you’ll use the
maps that are in your packet and perhaps some memory from the Work Session discussion….

That’s right, staff lost the digital copies of an agenda item,

CU-2014-11 Normal Life of Georgia.
Board packets on the county’s website would serve as a backup
for copies on planners’ laptops.

Gretchen, who was there, reports further below, including
a note about that charming young white man recently appointed
to the Planning Commission. -jsq

LAKE in the VDT @ LCC 2014-11-21


300x169 VDT videographer, Gretchen with the LAKE camera, Chairman Slaughter, County Clerk, in Open Government Symposium, by John S. Quarterman, 21 November 2014
First time ever the VDT mentioned LAKE, so far as I can recall.
And we’ll see if the new VDT editor’s honeyed approach works this
time with the Lowndes County Commission.

Joe Adgie, VDT, 23 November 2014,

Watchdogs use open government laws to the fullest,

Not everyone at the

Open Government Symposium on Friday were
affiliated with a government.



Some of them, like John and Gretchen Quarterman, serve as watchdogs
for the government. These watchdogs attend the open, public meetings
held by governing bodies, acquire the documents and records of these
meetings and other governmental affairs, and serve to make sure our
local governments behave like they should.

The Quartermans run the Lowndes Area Knowledge Exchange (LAKE), a

300x388 Page 1: Lake Park R-P, Lowndes County C-G, Valdosta R-M, in Agenda, by John S. Quarterman, 24 November 2014

Thanks to the City of Valdosta for the
agenda for tonight’s Planning Commission meeting.
It’s all small cases, but how would you know whether one of them
might affect you, since Lowndes County still doesn’t post Planning Commission
agendas or minutes or board packets?
And is there a second page?
If the county did post these agendas regularly on their own website,
this sort of omission would be less likely to occur.

Last seen at ZBOA 2013-03-05 about a sign,
Macedonia First Baptist Church

now wants to expand in a residential neighborhood.
One applicant wants to rezone

from R-10 to Estate Agriculture.
All that and more two weeks ago at the Planning Commission.

Videos: Discussion, GLPC, abandonment, septic, pump, and VOCA @ LCC 2014-10-14



Some actual discussion!
20 minutes of it, on

6.b. REZ-2014-16 Bailey, Madison Hwy/Williams School Ln,
at the 14 October 2014 Regular Session of the Lowndes County Commission.
With no discussion, they approved

a single-sourced pump replacement
and

the DA’s VOCA grant application.
They

abandoned Water Oak Trail (not Water Oaks Drive),
and they

reappointed Jody Hall to the Planning Commission
with no discussion and no presentation by him.
The county now has a

twitter account,
but the new website still isn’t ready, after how many months?
