Solutions To Space Needs Not Discussed By Oconee County Commissioners At Meeting Called For That Purpose

Presentations were made on current and future space needs, but there was no discussion of what could be done to meet those needs.

Anyone who turned out at the called meeting of the Oconee County Board of Commissioners Tuesday night expecting a discussion of how the county is going to address future space needs would have been disappointed.

What the small group in attendance heard instead was presentations by an elected official and by representatives of eight county departments of what their current space use is and what they think they will need in 2035.

Almost all said they are making do with their current space in the Courthouse or the Courthouse Annex across the street from the Courthouse.

Almost all said they would need additional space in the future.

The meeting ended without any discussion of what the county should do in response.

For details of the meeting, go to Oconee County Observations.
