Tift County advances Red Oak Road paving plan; condemnation options reviewed

Tift County Board of Commissioners · March 1, 2026

Summary

Public Works Director Jason Jordan briefed commissioners on two options for condemning property needed to complete paving of a 1.5‑mile portion of Red Oak Road; the board indicated it would place the item on the Sept. 11 agenda for formal action.

Public Works Director Jason Jordan reminded commissioners that the county previously approved preliminary engineering (Sept. 2019) and construction (May 2020) for about 1.5 miles of Red Oak Road from Whiddon Mill Road to Cromer Road. He outlined two condemnation options to acquire property needed to complete paving.

The board did not take formal action at the workshop but instructed staff to place the condemnation item on the Sept. 11 regular meeting agenda for further consideration and potential formal action. Jordan’s presentation indicates the project has progressed through design and that right‑of‑way acquisition remains the outstanding issue.
