Update 2024-01-23<\/strong>:\r\nVideos: Appoint another Tax Assessor, Special Assessment Rate, VOCA, federal consultant @ LCC Work 2024-01-22<\/a>.\r\n

\r\nThe Lowndes County Commission will try again to appoint a Tax Assessor to succeed James Puckett for a three-year term.\r\nThe board packet does not mention that they did this two weeks ago,\r\nbut Gene Felts resigned after being sworn in but before his first Tax Assessors meeting.\r\nMaybe somebody should tell the appointees that substantial hours of training are required after being appointed.\r\n

\r\nAnd we the taxpayers and voters still do not get to see the applications,\r\nwhich are not in this board packet, either.\r\n
