The longest time, almost 16 minutes, was for Pregnancy Support Clinic of Valdosta at 2203 N. Oak St., followed at 14 minutes by REZ-2020-03 Wetherington Property, Val Del Road RA to PD, with 12 minutes for the Jon Nijem rezoning and Planned Development at 406 & 410 Baytree Road, in a relatively short February meeting of the Greater Lowndes Planning Commission.

The longest item of those I videoed (yes, I was late to this Work Session) was 6.f. Deannexation of Ganas Property by Lake Park, which apparently doesn’t cost the county anything. Directly, at least. Maybe even net positive, due to property taxes.
Here are the costs found in the agenda sheets for the items, from most expensive down, with links back into the agenda.
| Cost | What |
|---|---|
| $290,000.00 | 2020 Administrative Services Agreement with Allied Benefit Systems, Inc. |
| $50,433.00 | Bid for Repairs to Knights Academy Road; emergency repairs for Culvert Aprons |
| $43,245.50 | Approval of Clyattstone Rd.-Simpson Ln. ROW Purchases |
| $24,613.44 | Microsoft Server 2019 Data Center License |
| $11,535.00 | Approval of Clyattstone Rd.-Simpson Ln. ROW Acquisition |
| $419,826.94 | Total |
The actual cost for one item is larger; see below for Clyattstone Road and Simpson Lane ROW Purchases.

Neither of the two Valdosta cases at Monday evening’s Planning Commission Regular Session looks controversial, although you never know. Jon Nijem wants to rezone and then get approval for a Planned Development at 406 & 410 Baytree Road. And Pregnancy Support Clinic of Valdosta wants to rezone for office space at 2203 N. Oak St.
In Lowndes County, yet another Val Del Road subdivision, REZ-2020-03 Wetherington Property, is proposed diagonally northeast across the road from Nelson Hill, which makes even clearer why the county wants to pave Clyattstone Road, going from Val Del Road between those two west to Old US 41 North (see below).
