Glennville approves FLOST intergovernmental agreement; referendum to appear on May ballot
Summary
Council approved an intergovernmental agreement that, if accepted by the county, will put a Floating Local Option Sales Tax (FLOST) referendum on the May 2026 ballot for voters to decide.
The Glennville City Council voted Feb. 3 to approve an intergovernmental agreement to allow the county to place a Floating Local Option Sales Tax (FLOST) referendum on the May 2026 ballot.
Mayor Weaver explained that approval of the agreement authorizes the city to participate in a countywide referendum process; if the agreement remains in force, the county will place the FLOST measure on the May ballot for citizen consideration. Councilmember Marcus H. Nobles moved to approve the agreement; Councilmember Tammy Waters seconded and the motion passed by voice vote.
The minutes do not include details about proposed uses of any FLOST revenues or the length/rate of the proposed tax; those matters would be subject to county-level materials and the referendum language presented to voters.
