Long County approves 2021-2022 budget in 4-1 vote
Summary
The Long County Board of Commissioners approved the 2021-2022 budget July 6, 2021, on a 4-1 vote after a motion by Commissioner John Reddish; Commissioner Florence Baggs voted against the budget. The approved budget amount was not specified in the transcript.
The Long County Board of Commissioners approved the county’s 2021-2022 budget during its July 6, 2021, meeting in Ludowici, passing the measure 4-1.
Commissioner John Reddish moved to approve the 2021-2022 budget, and Vice Chairman Gerald Blocker seconded. Commissioner Florence Baggs opposed the motion; the board recorded the motion as passing 4-1. Finance Director Bernice Johnson was present at the meeting, but the transcript does not record the approved dollar total or line-item details.
The vote followed routine business including approval of the agenda, minutes and authorization to pay county bills. The transcript records no public comment related to the budget and no amendments were offered on the floor.
Because the transcript does not include the budget’s dollar amounts, the article does not report a total; the size and specific allocations of the 2021-2022 budget were not specified in the meeting record. The board gave no further procedural direction in the transcript regarding implementation or effective dates for budget items.
The board then proceeded to take other business on the agenda, including a rezoning item and ordinance readings.
