Commissioners adopt procedure for disposition of county-owned alleyways and unimproved roadways in St. George
Summary
Board adopted a resolution establishing a procedure for disposing of county-owned alleyways and unimproved roadways in St. George; advertisement is no longer required for alleyways per County Attorney guidance.
Charlton County commissioners unanimously adopted a resolution establishing a procedure for the disposition of county-owned alleyways and unimproved roadways in St. George on Thursday.
County Attorney John Adams reviewed the resolution and said it “looks good,” noting the new language removed some previous requirements. Adams told the board that the procedure does not require advertising for alleyways anymore, though advertising remains required for larger property sales. Commissioners discussed whether the resolution should apply to other county areas; Adams explained differences in St. George’s land structure compared with other parts of the county.
Why it matters: the resolution provides a formal process for handling county-owned alleyways and unimproved roadways in St. George, clarifying advertisement and disposition procedures.
Details: Commissioner Jesse Crews moved to adopt the resolution and Commissioner Luke Gowen seconded. The motion carried unanimously. Acting County Administrator Rebecca Harden asked about advertisement requirements; County Attorney Adams confirmed the change in advertisement practice for alleyways but not for larger properties. The resolution text was not appended to the meeting minutes in full during the June 19 session.
