County reports new playground installed, SPLOST receipts above estimates and ribbon-cutting at public works facility
Summary
During project updates March 18 county staff presented photos of a newly installed playground, reported SPLOST receipts have exceeded estimates and shared a ribbon-cutting photo for the Mike Brown public works facility.
County staff provided multiple project updates at the March 18 meeting, including photographic confirmation that playground equipment had been installed at a county park, updated Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) collection figures that exceeded earlier estimates for the 2019 SPLOST program and a ribbon-cutting photo for the new Mike Brown Public Works Facility.
A staff member said the playground installation was completed and that crews planned to finish mulching the area after the pictured work was taken. The staff presentation noted the county has surpassed estimates on 2019 SPLOST collections with one month remaining in the reporting period, and that T-SPLOST and single-family permitting figures were moving within expected ranges. A county finance note said Georgia Fund 1 monthly yields averaged 4.84% for the year-to-date period shown.
Staff also said they had framed a ribbon-cutting photo to give to the widow of Mike Brown, the public works employee for whom the facility is named. No formal votes were taken on the project updates; the items were informational.
The project updates were presented as part of the regular agenda and did not generate motions or recorded votes in the available transcript.
