Commission delays Emerson Park paving until drainage study is completed
Summary
The Ware County Board voted to postpone paving remaining short streets in Emerson Park until a drainage study is completed, saying funds would be better spent after evaluating drainage needs.
The Ware County Board of Commissioners voted Jan. 12 to delay paving the remaining short streets in Emerson Park until a drainage study can be completed and the project can be moved to another area of the county if appropriate. Commissioner Barry Cox made the motion; Commissioner Leonard Burse seconded and the board approved it by roll-call vote with Commissioner Jon Tindall absent.
Commissioners said the county’s money would be better spent after a drainage study identifies whether current drainage would be adequate once paving is completed. The minutes record no public comment on the item and do not specify a timeline or budget for the drainage study; follow-up tasks assigned to Public Works were noted in the minutes as planned steps.
The decision pauses immediate paving work in Emerson Park and directs staff to study drainage conditions before allocating paving funds.
