It’s a pretty light agenda for the Lowndes County Commission Work Session Monday morning, April 21, with voting the Regular Session Tuesday evening, April 22.
Two posts are open with only one applicant for appointment to the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD).
There is a regular court grant renewal and an application for another.
Lightning caused the Emergency Purchase – Naylor Tower Top Amp Replacement.
And there are road resurfacing projects using state and SPLOST funds.

Of those projects, two are mostly or completely reimbursed from funds outside the county. So it is hard to add them up in a simple table like this.
Cost | What |
---|---|
$-36,776.00 | Emergency Purchase – Naylor Tower Top Amp Replacement (Capital funding) |
$-342,493.00 | FY2026 Juvenile Justice Incentive Grant Application (reimbursed by CICC) |
$-1,478,673.94 | 2025 Local Maintenance and Improvement Grant (LMIG) Resurfacing Bids (Funding: SPLOST/LMIG) |
$-1,857,942.94 | Total |
Here is the agenda.
The board packet, received in response to a LAKE open records request, is on the LAKE website.
