BOC funds Development Authority for remainder of year
County projects, road detours also discussed
Hwy. 9 and Dawson Forest Roundabout
A plan for the double roundabout at Hwy. 9 and Dawson Forest Road, which the Georgia Department of Transportation has “fast tracked” according to Dawson County Public Works Director David McKee.
The Dawson County Board of Commissioners voted last Thursday to allocate $135,000 to the Development Authority of Dawson County so that it can continue to operate throughout 2018 in partnership with the chamber of commerce. The partnership includes moving the authority under the same roof as the chamber and hiring a new economic development director to work under the supervision of chamber President Christie Haynes. District 2 Commissioner Chris Gaines motioned to give the authority the funds.
