Update 2025-01-14<\/strong>:\r\nVideos: 3 presentations, Appointment Board of Health, correct Tax Assessor, Qualifying Fees, grants, road widening and paving, Lakes Blvd Water Meter Relocation @ LCC Work 2026-01-12<\/a>.\r\n

\r\nBoth Work Session and Regular Session are today, Monday, January 12, 2026,\r\nfor the Lowndes County Commission.\r\nI don’t know why.\r\n

\r\nThey didn’t do the appointment right in December for Felicia Williams as a Tax Assessor, so do-over today.\r\n

\r\nFrances Brown wants to be reappointed to the Lowndes County Board of Health.\r\n

\r\nAs required by state law, they’re setting the qualifying fee to run for County Commissioner: it’s $450.\r\n

\r\nThree grant application or acceptance items are on the agenda, for Juvenile Justice and Victims of Crime Act (VOCA).\r\n

\r\nTwo Acceptance of Infrastructure, for Knights Landing Phase IV Section I,\r\nand for Colbie Place Subdivision on River Road.\r\n

\r\nFour road widening items, and one Abandonment of Grice Road.\r\n

\r\nFinally, \r\n$63,801.00\r\nfrom SPLOST \r\nfor\r\n10. Lakes Blvd Water Meter Relocation<\/a>\r\n“to meet commercial development needs in the area.”\r\nAt least it’s in Lake Park, so it’s not sprawl.\r\n

\r\nIt’s interesting that they count that SPLOST expenditure as “BUDGET IMPACT”\r\nbut for\r\n\r\n9.h.\r\nFY 2026 Local Maintenance & Improvement Grant (LMIG) Application<\/a>\r\n
\r\nthe agenda sheet says “BUDGET IMPACT: N\/A; 10% match allocated in SPLOST VIII” for Lake Alapaha Boulevard and other roads.\r\n

\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\nHere is the\r\nagenda<\/a>.\r\n

\r\nThe board packet, received in response to a LAKE open records request, is\r\n\r\non the LAKE website<\/a>.\r\n

\r\nIf they put it on their own website, lowndescounty.com,\r\nunder \r\nAgenda Center<\/a>,\r\nnobody would have to file an open records request and county staff\r\nwouldn’t have to spend time sending out packets.\r\n
