A third Lowndes County Case in west Valdosta near James Road,
REZ-2016-15, was pulled from the agenda until next month
to be sure it will be ready for review (but not withdrawn).
One Valdosta case,
CU-2016-02, was announced as withdrawn
at the beginning of the meeting.
The
stormwater LDR changes apparently were mostly to
remove description of very old previous material and various housekeeping
including reflecting a rate increase the Valdosta City Council already approved
back in June after a series of public hearings.
Expect the Comprehensive Plan back next month: they didn’t examine it this time because
the agenda was already very long. Continue reading

Videos: 3 Hahira rezonings + annexation, Valdosta PD + LDR @ GLPC 2016-05-31
Here are LAKE videos of
the controversial Hahira rezonings and annexation
at the Planning Commission May 31st 2016.
The longest GLPC discussion was actually on the
Valdosta sign ordinance changes.
County Manager Joe Pritchard acknowledged receipt of a letter from Hahira at the Lowndes County Commission Work Session 2016-05-23 and the next day the County Commission voted they had no objections. After nobody from the audience spoke for or against, the Planning Commission on 2016-05-31 recommended anexation, chaired by vice-chair Jody Hall of Hahira. Probably the Hahira City Council discussed this item at the Hahira City Council Work Session the same day as the County Commission Work Session, and proceeded with the annexation at the Hahira Regular Session of June 2nd, but the last Hahira minutes online are from February 2016.

Videos: Abandoned Voting @ LCC 2016-05-24
Record low attendance, not record but very short session time,
even with a full agenda;
at least you can see last month’s last Lowndes County Commission Regular Session in these LAKE videos.
They meet again 8:30 AM this morning.
See also the LAKE videos of the May 23rd Work Session. In the May 24th Regular Session, there were still no questions yesterday from Commissioners about that $55,979.00 in two no-bid items.
Commissioner Demarcus Marshall did ask Continue reading

REGULAR MONTHLY MEETING
AGENDA
Lowndes County South Health District Administrative Office
325 West Savannah Avenue
Tuesday, May 31, 2016 * 5:30 P.M. * Public Hearing
Videos: Abandon Beaver Lane, Aging Development Appointments, Kinderlou Lift Station Pump @ LCC 2016-05-23
Will they take longer to vote this evening at 5:30 PM than the
8 1/2 minutes for yesterday morning’s Work Session with
a full agenda?
No questions yesterday from Commissioners about that $55,979.00 in two no-bid items, although the County Manager did say “quotes” about the . lift station pump. The County Manager’s Report did say he’d received an annexation request from Hahira for the W. Main St. property and he indicated no grounds for the county to protest.
The only question from a Commissioner was about which one of them might be picked to serve with “Ms. Andrea Schuijer” on the South Regional Joint Development Authority. Answer: maybe Clay Griner. Nobody asked why the county’s web page on that Joint Authority says Andrea Schruijer is already on it. Is this a reappointment? And which slots are vacant? Also, what does this Joint Authority do?
For the Southern Georgia Area Agency on Aging, yes it’s Commissioner Joyce Evans for reappointment.County Engineer Mike Fletcher said the Beaver Lane closing previously came up in 2002 and was denied, but now some of the opponents from then are for it. Tonight is not the public hearing: merely a determination on scheduling a public hearing. Continue reading
No agenda for Planning Commission Work Session @ GLPC 2016-05-23
On
Lowndes County’s website
there’s no agenda for tonight’s Planning Commission Work Session,
even though
the City of Valdosta’s calendar
lists that Work Session for 5:30 PM Monday May 23rd 2016
at South Health District Administrative Office (former Lowndes County Administration Building),
325 W Savannah Ave, Valdosta, GA 31601.
Presumably the
Hahira rezonings and annexation will be discussed.
And will County Manager Joe Pritchard say this morning at 8:30 AM
at the Lowndes County Work Session that he has received an annexation letter from Hahira?
Neither of these Monday meetings are public hearings: the public can attend, but can not speak. See previous post for when the public hearings are.

Abandon Beaver Lane, Aging Development Appointments, Kinderlou Lift Station Pump @ LCC 2016-05-23
This morning’s 8:30 AM $45,600.00 for new grounds for four radio towers: was it in the budget, or is this another emergency no-bid item? Ditto the $10,379.00 for the Kinderlou Lift Station Pump? Each item names only one company quoting.
After
abandoning Beaver Lane, will the county vote to fix it as a private road,
like they did with
Carter Way?
And from whom did the county receive the abandonment request?
Will the
County Manager’s Report
include
the Hahira W. Main St. annexation?
Also on the Lowndes County Commission agenda for discussion Monday morning and vote Tuesday evening, appointing “Ms. Andrea Schuijer and a Commissioner” to the Continue reading
Hahira rezoning and annexation, W. Park St @ GLPC 2016-05-31
Update 2016-04-23: Fixed date of Hahira City Council Work Session to May 31st per comment from Barbara Stratton.
Josh Thomason wants to combine three parcels and annex one of them into Hahira.
Some people are rightly concerned about whether Hahira’s sewer system can handle it.
Apparently Hahira Mayor and Council have already discussed these three related cases,
and they come up for two Planning Commission meetings and a Hahira vote
in the next few weeks, plus the annexation goes past the Lowndes County Commission.
Oh, and Valdosta is indirectly involved.
