Resident asks Screven County to extend paving on Old River Road; commissioners agree to investigate
Summary
At the April 9 meeting, resident Subrena Kittles asked the Screven County Board of Commissioners to extend paving on Old River Road to reach a church less than a mile from current pavement; Vice-Chairman J.C. Warren told her the board will look into the matter.
Subrena Kittles told the Screven County Board of Commissioners on April 9 that residents have "difficulties getting to the church when there has been extremely bad weather" and asked that the county consider extending paving on Old River Road by approximately less than one mile to reach the church property.
Vice-Chairman J.C. Warren responded that the board would investigate the request, noting the unpaved portion is less than a mile long. The meeting minutes do not record a specific funding source, project timeline or any commitment to a paving schedule; the board simply agreed to "look into this matter." County Manager Lori Burke and Road Superintendent James Woods were present at the meeting and may be assigned follow-up tasks, but the transcript does not specify whether the county will include the project in the April 23 workshop or any upcoming road work plan.
The transcript indicates the paved portion of Old River Road ends just past the AMI Kids facility; Kittles asked that pavement be extended at least to the church’s property. No motion, funding approval or specific timeline was recorded during the session. The matter remains in the inquiry stage pending staff review and any future agenda action.
