Summary

At its meeting, the Greensville County Board of Supervisors approved a letter of support for Empower's broadband application and approved multiple engineering and service contracts, board appointments and a $30,000 interim county administrator pay increase.

The Greensville County Board of Supervisors took a series of votes on staffing, contracts, appointments and projects during its meeting.

Key outcomes (motions moved, seconded and approved during the meeting):

- Letter of support for Empower Broadband’s BEAD/BED application: Board approved a motion to submit a letter of support; county staff will prepare and send the letter the following day. (See Empower presentation for details.)

- Maymac North Wastewater Pump Station and Forcemain (engineering contract): Board approved a contract with Timmons Group for engineering of sewer expansion to the Maymac site. Contract amount in the agenda: $635,000; the agenda packet indicated the contract is 100% grant funded. (Motion approved by roll call; transcript did not record individual vote tallies.)

- Maymac elevated water storage tank (design contract): Board approved a design contract with Simmons Engineering for an elevated water storage tank to serve the Maymac site. Contract amount in the agenda: $825,000; agenda item indicated 100% grant funded. (Motion approved by roll call; transcript did not record individual vote tallies.)

- La Bella contracts: Board approved two contracts for La Bella — one for general engineering services (groundwater monitoring and related DEQ‑required reporting) and one for licensed waste‑management services to continue operations. (Motion approved by roll call; transcript did not record individual vote tallies.)

- Planning Commission appointment (District 2): Board appointed Dr. Adolf Flowers to the planning commission. (Motion approved by roll call.)

- GCWSA Fallen Run Water Treatment Plant project: Board recommended accepting the low bid from Atrium in the amount of $100,209.01; staff stated materials and installation would be handled by water and sewer staff and indicated a total project cost figure in the discussion, but a clear, final total was not specified in the transcript. (Motion approved by roll call.)

Several routine items were also approved earlier in the meeting, including the amended agenda and the consent agenda (minutes, budgetary matters and warrants). The transcript records 'aye' roll‑call confirmations for these routine approvals but does not provide a complete, named vote tally for every motion.

Where the public record in the transcript did not supply complete vote tallies or mover/second names, this summary notes the approvals and the contract amounts as presented in the board packet.
