Lowndes County supervisors approve consent items, personnel moves and contracts in unanimous votes
Summary
At its July 15 meeting the Lowndes County Board of Supervisors approved a broad consent package — adopting the agenda, approving minutes, county claims and financials, declaring surplus property and authorizing multiple personnel hires and purchases; every recorded motion passed 5-0.
The Lowndes County Board of Supervisors adopted its amended agenda and approved minutes for June 30 and July 6, 2026, in unanimous 5-0 votes, setting the framework for the July 15 meeting. Supervisor Leroy Brooks moved to adopt the agenda "as amended with changes," and the motion carried after a second by Supervisor Jeff Smith.
The board spread a series of routine items on the minutes, including the County Claims Docket for the period ending July 15, 2026, June 2026 financials and a surplus property list that included a retired officer’s weapon. Several personnel actions were approved: new hires for the Justice Court and E911 dispatcher positions (rates and effective dates were specified), and a Family and Medical Leave Act request for an employee in the Recreation Department for up to twelve weeks starting July 9, 2026. All these motions were recorded as passed, 5-0.
