Videos: Valdosta annexation and manufacturing; Lowndes County commercial and subdivision rezonings @ GLPC 2024-11-25

The Greater Lowndes Planning Commission recommended approval of a Valdosta annexation and rezoning on Old Statenville Road for the Development Authority, a commerciaal rezoning on Inner Perimeter Road for U-Haul, and a subdivision on Thunderbowl Road.

They voted 7:0 against recommending approval for a commercial rezoning on Old US 41 N.

The VLDA case was already decided Thursday by the Valdosta City Council: they approved it.

The other cases are before the Lowndes County Commission Monday morning to be voted on Tuesday evening.

Packet: Insurance cancellation, annexation and rezoning for Development Authority, final bond resolution for water and wastewater, and $679,832.40 for tasers @ VCC 2024-12-05

The board packet has a couple of pages on why city staff want to cancel the insurance broker contract, while the broker is posting his version on his ValdostaFirst facebook group.

Valdosta Police Department wants $679,832.40 for Conducted Electrical Weapons (CEW), which say taser on the side.

I’m told this is the final resolution required before issuing the $67 million bonds for water and wastewater projects.
