Dawson County OKs intergovernmental agreement with Dawsonville for Shoal Creek Road improvements
Summary
The board approved an intergovernmental agreement with the City of Dawsonville to improve Shoal Creek Road; the city-side contribution is capped at $450,000 in the agreement, and a city representative said the low bid came in "significantly less than 450,000."
The Dawson County Board of Commissioners approved an intergovernmental agreement with the City of Dawsonville for improvements to Shoal Creek Road, adopting the agreement language that includes a city-side cap of not more than $450,000.
A city representative who addressed the board confirmed the contract language and told commissioners that bids opened after the draft was prepared and the actual low bid came in "significantly less than 450,000," though no final bid amount was read into the record. The chair asked for the board’s direction and a motion to approve the agreement (recorded in the transcript as moved by Commissioner Stowers and seconded by Commissioner Gaines) carried with a recorded vote of 4–0.
The transcript notes the agreement’s not-to-exceed figure and a lower actual bid but does not specify the final contract amount, how costs will be split precisely between the city and county, or a project timeline. The board did not request additional funding details on the record during the discussion.
