The county’s
response to the weekend storms (straight-line event, not tornado)
was less confused than its proposed board appointments.
They vote Tuesday evening at 5:30 PM, including on the
budget.
Likely return of Ray Devery to the
Library Board as Chairman,
and reappointment of Barry Barr.
Sheila Wakeley for the
South Georgia Community Service Board,
but even the Commissioners had no bio for her.
John Sineath for
Valdosta-Lowndes County Construction Board of Adjustments and Appeals,
even though Valdosta’s web page says he’s a city appointee.
None of the applicants spoke.
A
grant for help getting a grant,
re-evaluation of
all rural agricultural tax assessments,
the annual
mosquito testing contract with VSU,
and the
landfill public hearing clarification item
apparently is about the hearing of the
public notice already posted for 17 July 2014.
Here’s
the agenda, with some notes, and links to the videos.

The Chairman refusing to publish a draft of the budget before the hearings
didn’t get any more people to show up.
Only a handful of people where there who didn’t work for the county,
and
no citizens spoke.
I still don’t see the budget on the county’s website, two weeks later.
I guess you can look at the LAKE video of
Finance Director Stephanie Black’s presentation
and hope it has the parts you want to see.
