County staff told commissioners that County Manager Mike Fallon could not attend and asked staff to present the recommendation for ratification. \"Mister Fallon could not be here today, so he asked me to bring this before you for ratification,\" a staff member said. The presenter said the county conducted internal interviews and selected Smith from qualified internal candidates.

A motion to ratify the county manager’s selection was made and approved by the board by voice vote; the chairman announced the vote as 6-0. Dan Smith addressed the board and said, \"I am grateful for this opportunity. I'm humbled by the confidence that you have in me,\" expressing appreciation and stating he looked forward to serving Glynn County.

The board later convened an executive session to discuss personnel and pending litigation. After returning from executive session, the board moved to approve the county manager’s recommendation of a salary at 8% over the midpoint for the selected assistant county manager, effective June 29, 2025; that motion passed unanimously.

The meeting transcript indicates the selection was an internal hire from the Department of Public Works, and staff said the county conducted interviews; no details on the salary midpoint amount or long-term reporting changes were provided in the meeting record.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","BOC Special Called Meeting 5/29/2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Glynn County Board of Commissioners ratified the county manager's selection of Dan Smith as assistant county manager and approved a salary set at 8% over the midpoint effective June 29, 2025; the board also met in executive session to discuss personnel and pending litigation.","taxTitle","Glynn County, Georgia","taxId",28533,"location","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6220487,"Glynn County commissioners approve hotel-motel tax increase for unincorporated areas",116,353000,469000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3617368-f4dc14fdcf13e173574aea2cd0bcaae4&start=353&end=469","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3617368-f4dc14fdcf13e173574aea2cd0bcaae4/thumbnail_353000.jpg","/articles/6220487/Glynn-County/Georgia/Glynn-County-commissioners-approve-hotel-motel-tax-increase-for-unincorporated-areas","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6220487-56755ec88f777c16172f0794e1125b4a/orig.mp4?Expires=1771164616&Signature=U5K87gOPEQns60w2FCPsJR-Md-IO5RMRWGG3bo0Ev3V8DjU0J1GmEhhJ0Y3OBdsmjggnlTG1XXwvheEjfVXW7dbt66mwwgs9-m-8S-hGNgtluwyO3rZX-t24AnBVxZOs2ogQScsImFv6tnkWlYI-Gqz7yNF2jRQXq8vR5uxB8vicgjorO0OJj2n4wgSkApbSkajsbZlKywefHuorsOHYVVFUstHxI8Av5L2doar86f9vYJR3ncy1DqlASpij0G5pRPctjCCjNKNxy1W0oGFEyR~29GLOcUQlIflhyqTSNonVmvKaaQ~HPv92FPM9zszJ3mJvLOA9ZivwGIQpMMXXCA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Glynn County Board of Commissioners voted 6-0 on May 29, 2025, to adopt an amendment to the county code raising the hotel-motel occupancy tax in unincorporated Glynn County from 5% to 7%, effective July 1, 2025.

County staff framed the vote as the final step in a three-part process that began with the county delegation securing state approval. \"What you have before you this afternoon is the final step in a 3 step process to increase your...tax from 5 to 7%,\" said Mr. Mofer, a county staff member, explaining that the state legislature had authorized the increase and the county ordinance change completes the local implementation.

Commissioners asked for clarification that the change applies only to unincorporated Glynn County. \"This is just unincorporated Glynn County, not including the city,\" Mofer said. A motion to adopt the amendment was made and seconded; the board voted by show of hands. Commissioner Sweat was on vacation and absent for the vote. The chairman announced, \"That passes 6 0.\"

The ordinance amendment amends section 24-2-14-21 of the Glynn County Code of Ordinances and becomes effective July 1, 2025. The transcript and staff presentation did not specify expected revenue totals or how the additional revenue will be allocated.

The action completes the county-level step required to collect the higher occupancy tax in unincorporated areas; the county will begin applying the 7% rate on the effective date.

","The Glynn County Board of Commissioners voted 6-0 on May 29, 2025, to amend the county code and raise the hotel-motel occupancy tax in unincorporated Glynn County from 5% to 7%, effective July 1, 2025; the increase does not apply to city jurisdictions.","actionData","errors"]
