Commissioners bless plan to move vital records processing to Health Department
Summary
Commissioner Allison Willis proposed moving vital records processing from the Probate Judge to the Health Department so revenue returns to the county and to increase Health Department foot traffic; Public Health Manager Tiffany Rollins is reported to support the plan and the board authorized Willis to proceed.
Commissioner Allison Willis proposed moving vital records processing to the Screven County Health Department during the June 13 meeting, saying the change would cause fees currently collected for vital records to come back to the county rather than to the Probate Judge.
Willis told the board she had spoken with Tiffany Rollins, Public Health Manager, who "is in agreeance with this move in hopes of increasing the foot traffic for the Health Department." The Board gave Willis their blessing to move forward with the process.
No funding breakdown or implementation timeline was specified in the meeting transcript; the board’s direction was procedural: to pursue the transfer and report back as details are developed.
