Tuesday Chairman Bill Slaughter did say
there will be a retreat Thursday and Friday this week, but he didn’t say where or what time of day.
Yesterday afternoon they finally put on their website that
it starts 8AM this morning at Quail Branch Lodge.
Here’s hoping Commissioner Joyce Evans is well enough to attend.
In a refreshing change of procedure, Continue reading
They vote 5:30 PM today. The longest item at yesterday morning’s Work Session was
6b. REZ-2017-02 Calles, Alexandria St, R-10 and CON to E-A, Well and Septic, 0213 acres,
which also got the longest discussion of any county case at the recent
Planning Commission meeting, where GLPC voted to recommend denial.
All parties want the other rezoning,
6a. REZ-2017-01 Cone/Malone, tabled.
The second longest item yesterday morning was 7c. Request for Relief for Tuscany Palms Utility Tax District, which had a long list of staff involved in it.
They did name the three three candidates for two VLMPO vacancies, but none of them were present. At least one wasn’t even aware he was actually a candidate.
Below are links to each Continue reading

CSX stock went up 29% in January on rumors of a corporate takeover.
The same CSX that let a plume of toxic chemicals leak below its
Rice Rail Yard in Waycross, including into the upper Suwannee River watershed.
It’s not clear a corporate takeover would do anything to stop that,
or other possible contamination in for example Valdosta.

He didn’t say anything about showing that list to the public.
See also the LAKE videos of last November’s Planning Commission meeting for those three rezonings.

Real discussion and revealing their opinions in public?

Did they see in advance
the VDT’s Sunlight on the horizon?
Yet the Chairman said nobody could ask the audience to stand up on REZ-2016-19 Turnberry at Thompson and while they were waiting for the room to clear before the next item could start, Continue reading
