During the Sept. 3 meeting the board approved several operational items: a memorandum of understanding with the City of Warner Robins for the 2024 SPLOST project to construct a new animal control shelter; the purchase of one round bale processor (hay blower) from Lasseter Tractor Company for $49,350 to be paid from Solid Waste Capital Funds; and payment of bills totaling $4,712,788.65.

Ms. Robinson presented the MOU with Warner Robins and the hay-blower procurement; motions to approve each item carried unanimously. The minutes record the hay blower purchase price ($49,350) and the funding source (Solid Waste Capital Funds). During public comments Margaret "Meg" Mehserle spoke about election integrity and a local newspaper article; no further public-comment items were recorded.

These routine procurement and intergovernmental actions set the project relationship for the animal shelter, replenish solid-waste equipment, and process county obligations recorded as bills for the period.
