With no prior notice to the public, and no invitation for people to apply, the Lowndes County Commission will appoint members to three boards:
- Ms. Kelly Saxon reappointment to the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities
- Mr. Gary Wisenbaker appointment to the Valdosta-Lowndes Metropolitan Planning Organization (VLMPO)
- Mrs. Creacy Sermons appointment to the Valdosta-Lowndes County Conference Center and Tourism Authority
Valdosta Daily Times: Sermons named Soror of the Year for 2016.
As usual, the county did not publish the applications the applicants turned in, nor any information about them. You could file an open records request for those, but three days from when the agenda is posted on Friday is after they vote on Tuesday.
You do still have time to turn in your own application if you want to be on one of these boards.
There’s also a Beer, Wine, and Liquor License for a new restaurant and Updated Section 5311 Rural Transportation Program Drug and Alcohol Testing Policy.
So the Monday morning Work Session will probably last less than ten minutes.

PROPOSED AGENDA
WORK SESSION, MONDAY, APRIL 22, 2019, 8:30 a.m.
REGULAR SESSION, TUESDAY, APRIL 23, 2019, 5:30 p.m.
327 N. Ashley Street – 2nd Floor
Another issue here is that there will be no public hearing on this issue
unless someone ASKS for it. Without a hearing, it just goes forward
with no other public information about being presented. Anyone may ask
for a hearing, but I would especially think that there are people who
really need a functional system that is not just focused on people
who have access to Medicaid as a payment source due to illness or
disability. Requesting such a hearing before January 24 would give the
opportunity to have all this information presented and for questions to
be asked and answered.
