Echols County workshop rejects internet for concession stand, explores ticket booth with school system
Summary
At an Aug. 20 workshop the Echols County Board of Commissioners agreed internet service is unnecessary for the concession stand and directed County Manager Alan Levesque to meet with the Echols County Board of Education about sharing construction costs for a proposed ballfield ticket booth.
The Echols County Board of Commissioners discussed internet access and a new ticket booth for the county ballfield at a workshop on Aug. 20, 2026. Commissioners concluded that providing internet service to the concession stand is not necessary at this time and did not move to implement service.
County Manager Alan Levesque said the county will pursue a cost-share conversation with the Echols County Board of Education about building a ticket booth at the ballfield. The board asked Levesque to report back on the school board's willingness to share construction costs before any formal decision or funding is brought to a regular meeting.
Why it matters: a shared-ticketing structure could reduce county expense for stadium infrastructure and create clearer operations at events. The item was discussed in workshop form only; no votes were taken and any funding decision will appear on a future regular meeting agenda.
