Update 2020-06-05: Lowndes County video has appeared, revealing several things not in the minutes.

LAKE did not video the May 12, 2020, Regular Session of the Lowndes County Commission, due to pandemic.
There was no telephone dial-in and no facebook live.
The last Lowndes County Commission video of its own meeting was February 25, 2020.
So the only record will be the Minutes, which we may or may not see before their next meeting, which is this Tuesday.

We get a location map but no indication of future county tax-paid costs of upkeep for the
infrastructure for Two Oaks at Bemiss.

Location Map

Yet we get evaluations by three different people of three proposals for the
Lowndes County Hazard Mitigation RFP; winning bid $20,000.

the actual Resolution is missing. Continue reading →

There are no videos.

The lightest agenda for Tuesday’s Lowndes County Commission Regular Session that I’ve seen in a while will be voted on Tuesday

Presumably the County will be videoing and putting that on YouTube,
as they usually do with Regular Sessions.
There is no Work Session.

Also less expensive than most Commission meetings:

Even on the least expensive item this time,
Lowndes County Hazard Mitigation Request for Proposal,
“Lowndes County recently requested pricing proposals from qualified contractors…”
The RFP is on the county’s website.

Unlike the more expensive stream monitoring project of last month’s meeting, for which there was no RFP and no bids.

This item has no cost cited, but will cost the taxpayers for road maintenance in the future:
Adopt Resolution accepting Infrastructure for Two Oaks at Bemiss.

All the

agenda sheet says for where is “located on Case Point, off Old Pine Road.”
