Summary
The Clayton County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously April 28 to enter a 99-year lease with reversion provisions for Parcel #14-25-428-001 to allow the Littleport Fire Department to site a new station; the department said it will pursue elevation and floodplain removal before construction proceeds.
The Clayton County Board of Supervisors voted April 28 to enter a 99-year lease, with reversion provisions, for Parcel #14-25-428-001 to allow the Littleport Fire Department to build a new fire station.
Brad Herman of the Littleport Fire Department told the board the parcel lies in a floodplain and said the department intends to pursue elevating the site and seeking removal of the floodplain designation through the proper channels before moving forward with construction. Supervisor Steve Doeppke moved the lease authorization; Supervisor Doug Reimer seconded, and the vote was recorded as aye from Doeppke, Ray Peterson and Reimer.
The motion approved entering into the lease agreement; the board’s action does not record construction approvals or removal of the floodplain designation. The lease includes reversion provisions, and any elevation work or floodplain requests remain subject to applicable regulatory review and approvals. The board did not record further financial terms in the transcript. The meeting record shows the authorization to proceed with the lease but not subsequent permitting or construction timelines.
