Summary

County and contractor work at the Blairsville Airport Regional Industrial Park continues: silt fence is installed, AIS is building silt ponds and rock is being hauled. The board was told a required agreement letter has not yet been returned signed and staff was asked to follow up.

Brett Owenby, an ex‑officio board member, updated the Development Authority Jan. 12 on work at the Blairsville Airport Regional Industrial Park: "The county has the silt fence installed and complete. AIS has started the silt ponds with one being complete. They are now hauling in rock," he said.

Chairman Rick Davenport asked whether the agreement letter for the project had been returned signed; County Clerk Jennifer Mahan replied it had not and was asked to follow up on its status. The update described initial erosion‑control and grading work rather than any completed vertical construction.

The briefing was informational; board members penciled the site progress into the broader discussion about infrastructure and future business recruitment but took no formal action specific to the airport park during the meeting.

Officials said further updates and documentation (including the signed agreement) will be reported back to the Authority when available.
