The Board of Commissioners took the next step in planning for future upgrades to the Dawson County Library during their April 7 meetings. Board members voted 4-0 for the county to commit to the 10 percent portion of a “90-10” capital outlay grant, a critical step in the library’s process for securing state funding.
Chestatee Regional Library System Director Leslie Clark shared a preliminary estimate of $671,000 for renovation and construction costs, of which the county’s obligations would be about $67,100. Once the library system gets a commitment letter from the county, they can work toward getting on the capital projects list, which is updated during each state legislative session, Clark said.
