Special Called Meeting, 9AM Monday 2024-08-12, No agenda, but about Opioids Settlements, Lowndes County Commission<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

\nThere’s no agenda<\/a> on that website.<\/p>\n

\nApparently if you signed up to get notices of meetings, the email you get says this meeting is about the Opioids Settlement.<\/p>\n

\nWhat could be so urgent that the Commissioners can’t wait until the Regular Session the next day is not clear.<\/p>\n

\nMaybe there’s a deadline?
\nNot clear why staff could not predict such a deadline and schedule earlier.<\/p>\n

\nThere’s nothing in the main page on the Georgia Attorney General’s website about any 2024 deadlines:
\n
\nNational Opioids Settlements \u2013 Information for Georgia Cities and Counties<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\nMaybe the county will tell us Monday at 9AM what’s going on and why it’s so urgent.<\/p>\n
