Paulding County authorizes capital purchases and accepts airport contract costs
Summary
The Board authorized use of grant funding for a transit bus purchase and approved a GDOT-funded airport access-road contract and an automatic weather system purchase with county match funds.
Paulding County commissioners approved several capital actions funded by federal and state grants and county matching funds.
The board authorized the chairman to sign paperwork related to an FTA 5311 FY2022 large-capital project for a new transit bus (recorded in the minutes with the vehicle number T0007169). The transcript’s stated dollar amount for the bus was unclear in the audio record and is not specified in this article because the amount was not clearly read into the transcript excerpt.
Commissioners adopted Resolution 2025-10 to accept the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) contract and associated costs for a terminal-area expansion access road (Module 1) at the Paulding Northwest Atlanta Airport in Dallas, Georgia; the motion passed on voice vote. The board also approved Resolution 2025-11 authorizing the purchase of an automatic weather observation system (AWOS) for $157,519, with funding from a GDOT grant plus a 25% Paulding County match.
All three items were presented as part of capital-project funding and were approved by board motions. The AWOS purchase included a named dollar amount and funding split noted on the record; the transit bus amount as read on the audio excerpt was not clear and therefore is recorded here as not specified in the transcript excerpt.
