\r\nThe board packet adds the agreements to \r\n\r\nthe agenda<\/a>\r\nfor this evening’s Lowndes County Commission Regular Session, 5:30 PM, Tuesday, October 22, 2024.\r\n

\r\nOne agreement details the $3,500 a month for renting for hurricane debris removal\r\nthe failed subdivision the county\r\n\r\nbought for $568,971 in February 2022<\/a>,\r\non GA 122 between Walker’s Crossing and Banks Lake.\r\n

\r\nThe other agreement specifies what the county is buying from VSU for $2,156,000.\r\nIt says they’re renting part of it back to VSU at least through December,\r\nwith options for following months through June 2025, for $1 (one dollar) a month.\r\n
