\r\nThe rezoning request for AB Motorsports has been withdrawn by the applicant,\r\nand the rezoning is still live for the Wild Adventures Safari Campground, for RVs, cabins, and glamping,\r\nat the Greater Lowndes Planning Commission (GLPC) meeting tonight.\r\n

\r\nWe know this because,\r\na day late and a dollar short,\r\nLowndes County late yesterday supplied most of the board packet.\r\n

Maps, rezonings @ GLPC 2023-04-24<\/a>\r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nJust after I posted the agenda<\/a>\r\nand sent them email reminding that it had been four working days sent\r\nLAKE sent the open records request and that the Georgia Open Records Act (GORA)\r\nrequires a response in three days, as\r\n\r\ntheir own County Clerk web page<\/a> says:\r\n“Once a request is received, Lowndes County will notify the requesting party\r\nwithin 3 days regarding the availability of the information”;\r\na few minutes later the county sent the agenda packet materials for the two rezonings.\r\n

\r\nBut once again they did not satisfy this part of the request:\r\n“Including the minutes of the previous GLPC meeting (those are NOT on the lowndescounty.com website).”\r\n

\r\nConsidering that the planners for Dasher, Lake Park, Hahira, and Valdosta\r\nresponded the same day as the request (saying they had no items),\r\nI really do not see what is so difficult for Lowndes County to respond\r\nin a timely manner according to state law.\r\nThey have to have the same materials already available for GLPC,\r\nso all they need to do is email a few PDFs.\r\n

\r\nEven better, why can’t Lowndes County put board packet materials on their own website,\r\nas many counties smaller and larger in Georgia and Florida have been doing for years?\r\nWhy do you, the taxpayers and voters and other interested parties,\r\nhave to depend on a third party to find out what an elected government is doing?\r\n

\r\nThe materials thus far received from Lowndes County for tonight are\r\n\r\non the LAKE website<\/a>.\r\n

Investigative reporting costs money, for open records requests, copying, web hosting, gasoline, and cameras, and with sufficient funds we can pay students to do further research. You can donate to LAKE today<\/a>!\r\n
