The Lowndes County Commission continues to pretend that accepting streets for a subdivision won’t cost taxpayers anything in future maintenance, nor previously in running water and sewer there. Back in October 2019, when the county accepted infrastructure for Phase V, County Engineer Mike Fletcher said that was “the last phase of Grove Pointe”. Yet here we are with Adopt Resolution Accepting Infrastructure for Grove Pointe Phase V Section 2.

Beer and Streets

Connecting Grove Pointe to Val Del Road by the Nelson Hill subdivision was planned since at least 2006, and that’s why Simpson Lane and Clyattstone Road got paved. Despite all that, today’s Grove Pointe agenda item is marked “BUDGET IMPACT: N/A”.

Also on the agenda for this morning’s Work Session are appointments to three boards (mostly re-appointments), and a beer, wine, and liquor license.

Here is the agenda. The board packet, received in response to a LAKE open records request is on the LAKE website. See also numerous previous appearances by Grove Point[e], with or without the final letter e. That subdivision on Old US 41 N near Valwood School goes back at least to 2006.
