Commission Meeting

The Houston County Commission held an administrative meeting on July 9, 2026, to prepare agenda items for the upcoming Monday meeting. Key procurement-related discussions included a request to adopt a resolution for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) to fund street improvements in the Cottonwood area, with a project cost of approximately $781,515 and a grant portion of $500,000. The commission also discussed entering into a lease agreement with Crab and Corner LLC for a property used by the sheriff's office, with a lease amount not to exceed $3,000 per month. Additionally, two road resurfacing projects were reviewed, both federally funded with county matching funds, totaling over $1 million combined. The commission also planned to approve the sale of various county vehicles and office equipment through GV Deals. All these items were set to be placed on the Monday meeting agenda with no objections noted.
