They tabled the Loch Winn Farms subdivision until it could be heard by the Planning Commission.
But they passed the Pine Grove Road Townhouses, without any Planning Commission review.
I guess the Planning Commission doesn’t matter if it’s in the Lowndes County Commission’s preferred development corridor in what staff call Central Lowndes County. Also, nobody spoke against, and Jack Langdale spoke for.

Commissioner Demarcus Marshall asked for a timeline for 6.a. Orr Road Extension, P.I. 0016273 TIA Project Agreement. Answer from County Engineering Services Director Chad McLeod: late 2025 bid process.
One citizen spoke: William Cary, about plastic recycling, saying Waste Management will no longer pick up plastic.

7. Reports – County Manager

William Carey – 4038 Liska Circle – topic plastic recycling
Mr Carey reports that Advanced Disposal no longer accepts plastic at their recycling location. He would like the county to provide a plastic recycling option.
Oddly, I thought that plastic, metal and paper were required by the sanitation ordinance. I guess that I will need to re-read that.
