Commission votes to end Fort Benning stray-facility contract

Commission of the Unified Government of Cusseta-Chattahoochee County, Georgia · November 4, 2025

Summary

The Cusseta–Chattahoochee County Commission voted unanimously Nov. 4 to terminate its contract with the Fort Benning stray facility, saying the vendor could not meet the agreement's requirements and that the county will proceed through formal notice.

The Commission of the Unified Government of Cusseta–Chattahoochee County voted unanimously on Nov. 4 to end its intergovernmental services agreement with the Fort Benning stray facility. Commissioner Gerald Douglas moved to terminate the contract and Commissioner Jason Frost seconded; the minutes record the vote as unanimous.

Commissioner Gerald Douglas said the Fort Benning facility "cannot meet the requirements" set out in the agreement and that the county would work with the vendor through the notice process to effect termination. The minutes note that other intergovernmental service agreements are proceeding without similar problems, and that the Fort Benning arrangement was the only one the county identified as failing to meet requirements.

The motion does not list a replacement provider or a timetable beyond proceeding through contract notice. County officials did not identify any immediate fiscal exposure or a date for the termination to take effect in the public minutes. The commission took no additional formal action during reconvened session other than recording compliance with the Open Meetings Act.
