Dawsonville City Council work session scheduled Monday

News

The Dawsonville City Council will meet for a work session Monday (Oct. 21) at 5:30 p.m. in the G.L. Gilleland Council Chambers, 415 Hwy. 53.

Financial Administrator Hayden Wiggins has requested that council reneDaw an annual software maintenance agreement with Edmunds GovTech in the amount of $10,345. The city has utilized the company since 2015 and the agreement will expire on Dec. 31.

Council will hold the first reading of a request by Sachinkumar Patel to annex five acres of land located at 60 Hwy. 136 East into the city. It is currently in Dawson County and zoned Residential Agricultural. Patel would like the city to rezone the property Highway Business.

The city’s legal representation, however, has recommended denial based on the fact the applicant is requesting that the annexation would be a portion of the parcel and not the whole parcel as required by law. A second reading is scheduled for Nov. 4.

Council will consider a change order in the amount of $42,361 to TriScapes for sod and irrigation alternates at Main Street Park. The funds will be paid out of SPLOST VI funds if available. The city approved a landscape agreement with TriScapes in July in the amount of $125,775.

Public Works Director will ask council to consider approval of a Local Maintenance Improvement Grant (LMIG) for milling, paving and striping 4,150 feet of Perimeter Road. The city would be responsible for a 30 percent match in the amount of $9,381.91.

Mayor Mike Eason will ask council to consider the appointment of Clint Harper and Laura Barr to the city’s Design Guideline Committee.
