Public Works advised commissioners of a DOT request that the county contribute $75,000 toward right-of-way acquisition and potential utility relocation for a bridge replacement project. Commissioners agreed to the contribution and to put the item on the consent agenda.

Danny Yates, director of public works, told the Board of Commissioners that the Georgia Department of Transportation (DOT) is proceeding with a bridge replacement in Carroll County and requested a county contribution of $75,000 toward right-of-way acquisition and any necessary utility relocation.
