Screven County approves $4,000 land purchase for dumpster site and possible fire station
Summary
The Board approved acquiring land on Hiltonia Perkins Road for $4,000 to site a dumpster location and a potential fire station; commissioners also amended the executive-session motion to include land acquisition.
Screven County commissioners voted unanimously on Feb. 11, 2020 to purchase a parcel on Hiltonia Perkins Road for $4,000 to be used for a county dumpster site and a potential fire station.
Commissioner Michael McBride moved to approve the acquisition; Commissioner Rosa Romeo seconded the motion and the board carried it by unanimous vote. Commissioner John O. Triplett later moved to amend the earlier executive-session motion so that land acquisition would be included in executive discussion; Commissioner J.C. Warren seconded and that amendment also carried unanimously.
The minutes record the motion and the dollar amount but do not provide parcel identifiers, seller information, or an implementation timeline. The acquisition was discussed in executive session before the board returned to regular session and approved the related minutes.
The board also discussed related dumpster-site planning during its reports, noting existing dumpster locations at Village Road and Hiltonia Perkins Road, which the county is reviewing for operations and public access.
