Incidentally, the entire council is up for election in November, including whoever wins the special election will have to run again in November if they want to stay on the council.
In that and other business, it is quite interesting watching this city council interact rather informally with citizens, yet taking some care
to ensure that nobody monopolizes the conversation. Other local city councils might want to watch and take notes.Here are two playlists for the council meeting in which this and other things were decided. Camera 1 is the same camera LAKE has been using for most Lowndes County Commission and Valdosta City Council meetings for years.
