\r\n\r\n<\/a>\r\nMultiple attorneys (ka-ching!) were needed\r\n\r\nto negotiate access for the county to fix private Carter Way<\/a>,\r\nwhich the Lowndes County Commission approved unanimously at its 10 May 2016\r\nRegular Session.\r\nThis is the same Commission that signed an easement with Sabal Trail<\/a>\r\nbecause they didn’t want to spend attorney fees to defend a lawsuit.\r\nThe same Sabal Trail that wants to put its three-foot pipe only three feet deep\r\n\r\njust downhill from where Carter Way washed out<\/a>.\r\n\r\n

\r\nCounty Planner Jason Davenport showed an updated site plan for\r\n\r\n6.a. REZ-2016-10 Freedom Heights, 4301 Bemiss Rd, C-H to P-D<\/a>,\r\nbut as usual it’s not posted on the county’s website, and you had no way\r\nof seeing it before the meeting unless you filed an open records request\r\nthree days before.\r\n

\r\nCommissioner Clay Griner remembered flooding, fence, and forgot the third thing\r\na constituent asked him for about\r\n\r\n6.b. REZ-2016-11 Creekside West Subdivision, 7551 GA Hwy 122 W<\/a>.\r\nDeveloper Young Tillman said the changes were because\r\n\r\n of the previous\r\nconversion of water from local wells to county E-1, which he said the\r\ncounty was familiar with so he wouldn’t discuss it further.\r\nIf you’re not familiar with that, I guess you can go back and search the Commission’s minutes.\r\nEventually he said his time was up, but he kept talking.\r\nJason Bellflowers also spoke for, mostly about\r\n\r\nthe condition proposed by the Planning Commission 25 April 2016<\/a>\r\nfor the subdivision lake to be public.\r\nI’m all in favor of commons at subdivisions, but trying to impose\r\nsuch a condition after people already bought lots expecting to have\r\nprivate access to the lake, that horse already got out of the barn.\r\nThe Commission approved the rezoning without that condition.\r\n

\r\nThey reappointed Shamb Purohit to the \r\n\r\nSouth Georgia Community Service Board<\/a> by acclamation,\r\nand about appointing an elected official “we will keep that under consideration\r\nand move forward at a later date”.\r\n

\r\nHere are LAKE videos of the 10 May 2016 Regular Session, followed by a video playlist.\r\nSee also\r\n\r\nthe LAKE videos of the previous morning’s Work Session<\/a>,\r\nthe agenda<\/a> and\r\nthe \r\nLAKE videos of the 25 April Greater Lowndes Planning Commission meeting<\/a> at which\r\nthe two rezoning cases were discussed.\r\n<\/p>\r\n
