The items were discussed at a public work session on June 26, and Chairman Morgan said the work session materials are available on the county website.

Brown identified his “main concerns” as Pine Knoll Nursing Home, Carrollton Manor and Carrollton Rehab and Nursing and said published ratings showed low scores for those facilities. “Carrollton Manor is a 1 out of 5. Pinell nursing home is a 3 out of 5. And Carrollton rehab and nursing ... is a 3 out of 5,” Brown said, referencing ratings he had reviewed.

He also described a personal experience: he said his father, who had been at Carrollton Manor for a short-term rehab stay in January, was found on one visit “drowning in his own fluid” and later was placed on a ventilator and died at a hospital. Brown said he planned to provide additional information to the commission.

Chairman Michelle Morgan invited Brown to send the remainder of his comments by email so commissioners could receive the documentation. “Rodney, feel free to send the veil mail. The rest of your comments. If you'd like. It will make sure all the commissioners get it,” she said.

No county action or formal referral was taken during the meeting; the public comment period concluded with staff offering to disseminate materials to commissioners.","A Carroll County resident told commissioners during public comments about concerns at three local nursing homes and shared a personal account of his father's decline after a short stay; the board offered to accept further materials by email but took no formal action.",{"_33":99,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":100,"_41":101,"_43":102,"_45":103,"_47":104,"_49":105,"_51":106,"_53":107,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":108,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":109,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6177095,"Commissioners approve repairs and contracts for Carroll County recreation facilities",173,2532000,2705000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5341810-52703d2cb8a7ef66efe16d89fb85600c&start=2532&end=2705","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5341810-52703d2cb8a7ef66efe16d89fb85600c/thumbnail_2532000.jpg","/articles/6177095/Carroll-County/Georgia/Commissioners-approve-repairs-and-contracts-for-Carroll-County-recreation-facilities","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6177095-5fe9d9601a27481a54cf1da09dbffa0a/orig.mp4?Expires=1771115138&Signature=X3zuZiMTRr6Aq6-0IZUy78HqnuTypstS5FS~RL57VvxoqMmvQkoF6OXyrig7N7VrwJhk4nfYjAmQFXx7FTSUM2RQA5MeTlXoJ4VMYIcVHjj5~OcBmqMud6QukCMexUF3dHNGXYtW~1arXBQHgYoerCOvjmO7Xs4sGKRFlsq989gJTg5Jo~GpJZthAq8mX-w7aNrr8YWR9jcdnYcTSZP-xu0OAw5uixGYGJFY0kvFX6a4bdkTAFkmfS4zH8-s-Uv3~Dptcqn5M9RPx4RqtJHcutuiTEoUrHH7gpCBTG-O-bw~smbdRnCGID3AQAl7QMwLvbnImKrivrzrDyfFGykkrA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Carroll County commissioners on July 8 approved two recreation department contracts: a not-to-exceed $35,000 engagement to assess and repair sports-complex light poles and a contract to reroof two concession buildings with a total not-to-exceed payment of $25,000 if additional plywood is required.

Recreation Director Thad Ferguson told the board the county’s electrical consultant Southern A&E had recommended manufacturer StressCreek assess the poles after noting wear. “So we are asking to partner with Stress Creek, for roughly $35,000,” Ferguson said, describing the estimate to assess and repair any issues so future bidders can rely on pole condition.

After commissioners discussed the need for an amount “not to exceed” the estimate and confirmed chairman-level authority to handle modest overruns, the board approved a motion to proceed with the StressCreek assessment and repairs by a recorded unanimous vote, 7-0.

Ferguson also presented bids to replace roofs on two concession buildings that appear to be original to the late-1990s complex. The board approved RE Contracting as the low bidder at $21,150, with an authorization to cover additional plywood costs so the total does not exceed $25,000. Ferguson said the contract includes three sheets of OSB per building, a 10-year workmanship warranty and a 50-year GAF limited warranty.

Commissioners asked staff to confirm contractor insurance and workers’ compensation as standard contract requirements. The board approved the roofing contract by unanimous vote, 7-0.

The approvals authorize staff to execute the contracts and proceed with pole assessments, any needed repairs, and reroofing work; county staff will handle standard contracting checks including insurance verification and performance warranties.","The board approved a not-to-exceed $35,000 contract with StressCreek to assess and repair light poles and awarded a roofing contract for two concession buildings, with protections for insurance and warranties.",{"_33":111,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":112,"_41":113,"_43":114,"_45":115,"_47":116,"_49":117,"_51":118,"_53":119,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":120,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":121,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6177100,"Carroll County commissioners approve rezoning for Hooping Creek Road landscaping business",270,2186000,2456000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5341810-52703d2cb8a7ef66efe16d89fb85600c&start=2186&end=2456","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5341810-52703d2cb8a7ef66efe16d89fb85600c/thumbnail_2186000.jpg","/articles/6177100/Carroll-County/Georgia/Carroll-County-commissioners-approve-rezoning-for-Hooping-Creek-Road-landscaping-business","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6177100-8a77bb42164f222b43c33b7cb9cd9bfa/orig.mp4?Expires=1771115138&Signature=L9kEE-CRsLvfiOflb8TlVjSoK~wQNziJUgerGN0euK4nf~wUjxcyTR3eV5-2C5RJ1~9q9KdzvcRdB3mGbuPos8Z8XHzRWoxTidd9swcMlE79b-q5ICjsJhgldb7RKy56Qca8TIsdL9NNvUxBxSMY1IaYZfNF6Fe8u8HPy1eNarQtbXIXyxsWNn~uonk3PGZIqXcqCjxOUovFy7Jkli1XQgoKJvM9RNL8Dlf90fE1v1LGSvKAlMTLVMK-ykJ-AONBSUYE1f-ndjPXQM~X~ONZzqG4EXyhfHFm1HTaVErfO~IV4is7F-nTNOr6R1-9xViw9eMNY4SQyv51Pbg6w7JXsw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Carroll County Board of Commissioners on July 8 unanimously approved a rezoning request to change a parcel on Hooping Creek Road from R-1 (residential) to commercial so it can be combined with an adjacent property for a landscaping business.

Community Development Director Ben Skipper presented the application, identifying it as Z-25-06-01 and saying it was a rezoning request “for half acre from residential r 1 to commercial to combine with an adjacent property for a landscaping business at 224 Hoopin Creek.” He also told commissioners the planning and zoning commission had unanimously recommended approval and that there was no opposition at that planning meeting.

Applicant Sarah Papin told the board she is the owner of the parcel and that the business owner plans to add the lot to his existing operation. Buyer Casey Vance, who said he is purchasing the property contingent on the zoning, described the parcel as “a leftover piece of property” and said consolidating it with the adjacent commercial lot would make the site flow better.

Commissioners asked about nearby residences and potential lighting impacts; one commissioner noted the county ordinance requires fixtures be directed downward and said staff would enforce that standard if problems arise. Commissioners also reminded the applicant that commercial zoning does not automatically allow any future change of use without additional approvals.

After discussion the board voted to approve the rezoning. A motion to approve carried unanimously, recorded as a 7-0 vote.

The rezoning clears the way for the buyer to consolidate the parcel with adjacent commercial property and expand the landscaping business. The record on the parcel size contains inconsistent references in the meeting: the county presentation described the parcel as “half acre,” while the applicant said the owner seeks to add “0.6 acres.”","The Carroll County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a rezoning to allow an expansion of an existing landscaping business on Hooping Creek Road after a unanimous planning commission recommendation and no public opposition at the meeting.","actionData","errors"]
