Screven County commissioners approve capacity agreement, leases and project lists; adopt continuing resolution
Summary
At its June 11 meeting, the Screven County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a FY25 capacity agreement to house state prisoners, amended the DOC housing agreement for FY24, adopted a continuing resolution pending the 2025 budget, approved multiple LMIG project lists and authorized a vehicle purchase.
The Screven County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a slate of routine agreements and project lists at its June 11 meeting, including a FY 2025 Capacity Agreement to house state prisoners, an amendment to the Department of Corrections (DOC) housing agreement for FY 2024, an annual lease with the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) for the OTC building, and several Local Maintenance & Improvement Grant (LMIG) project lists.
Commissioner J.C. Warren moved to approve the FY 2025 Capacity Agreement to house state prisoners; Commissioner Rosa Romeo seconded and the motion carried by unanimous vote. The minutes list the same two commissioners as mover and seconder for other corrections-related items: Commissioner Rosa Romeo moved to approve the DOC agreement amendment for FY 2024 and Commissioner J.C. Warren seconded; that motion also carried unanimously.
The board also adopted a Resolution Continuing Operation of Screven County Pending Adoption of the 2025 Fiscal Year Budget. Commissioner J.C. Warren moved adoption; Commissioner Ben Thompson seconded and the resolution carried by unanimous vote. The minutes reference a copy of the resolution in the county minute book (page not specified).
Other approvals included: the annual lease agreement with TCSG for the OTC building (moved by Commissioner J.C. Warren, seconded by Commissioner Edwin Lovett); approval of the project list for the 2024 LMIG LRA and a revised LMIG SAP stripping project list; and authorization to purchase a warden’s vehicle from Sylvania Ford using Telephone Account funds at the prison (moved by Commissioner J.C. Warren, seconded by Commissioner Edwin Lovett). All motions are recorded as carrying by unanimous vote.
The minutes do not include vote-by-name roll call for each motion, but they record that the motions "carried by unanimous vote." Six commissioners were listed as in attendance at the start of the meeting and one commissioner was absent; the record does not indicate any recusals or abstentions.
Commissioner Rosa Romeo used the commission comments portion of the meeting to thank the Sylvania Times for coverage of a bridge dedication and to thank the road department for signage; County Manager Lori Burke noted a request from the Sylvania Junior Woman’s Club to use the courthouse for a political forum and reminded commissioners of district recreation tournaments and an upcoming June 25 meeting. Lagina Evans provided an update on the hospital; the minutes do not supply details of that update.
Chairman Will Boyd adjourned the meeting at 6:26 p.m.
