Lynn presented a resolution to award RFP 26-37 for construction of North Mount Carmel Park playground site improvements and a new restroom building and recommended awarding the contract to UJAMAA Construction of Morrow, Georgia.

"I am here to present to you a resolution awarding RFP 26Dash37 for the construction of North Mount Carmel Park playground site improvements and a new restroom building to UJAMAA construction in the amount of $1,632,848.59, utilizing SPLOST 6 funds," Lynn said. She explained the county received four proposals, evaluated them, interviewed the top two, and selected UJAMAA as the highest-rated proposer; funding was cited from SPLOST 6 project account SP6007.
