There was so much discussion at the Work Session this morning that the meeting was 30 minutes long. They spent ten minutes on the ULDC Text Amendments; the ones that remove pine trees from being protected species. Even the UPS replacement got discussion.

Regarding the purchase of VSU South Campus, Commissioner Mark Wisenbaker wondered how this could so easily move forward when the proposed animal shelter is taking so long. There was a little discussion.

They vote at 5:30 PM this evening.

Most of the almost $2.5 million being contemplated is for the purchase of the VS U South Campus.

Cost What
$2,156,000.00Purchase of VSU South Campus Property
$111,223.17LMIG Supplemental Local Road Assistance (LRA) 2024 Restriping Bids
$85,097.4.00Bid for 60 SCBA Cylinders for the Fire Department
$72,103.12UPS Replacement at the Valdosta and Clyattville Public Safety Radio System Tower Sites
$2,424,423.69Total

Here is the quite long agenda.

We don’t have the board packet, because I forgot to send in the open records request. However, the packet materials for the rezonings will probably be much like the ones from the preceding GLPC meeting, and the ULDC amendments should be somewhat similar to those the Lowndes County Commission previously tabled.
