# Georgetown County Council Meeting - November 10, 2026

Georgetown County Council’s November 10, 2026 meeting included two procurement items on the consent agenda: Procurement No. 26094 for two Dodge Ram 1500 Tradesman crew-cab trucks, and an emergency procurement for non-engineered repairs to Peters Creek Bridge through Greenwave Contracting for $231,500. The transcript does not record a separate vote on these items. Council also approved Resolution 26-33, certifying the November 3 local-option sales-tax referendum results, by a 6–1 vote. Officials said collections are scheduled to begin May 1, 2027; estimates discussed included roughly $12 million in annual revenue, with the statutory 71%/29% distribution and municipalities’ discretion over their shares.

Council approved two economic-development incentive ordinances: Ordinance 26-40 for Agro America’s Project Flare, involving about $5.5 million in infrastructure improvements, including a 6,700-foot industrial rail spur, and an estimated $8.24 million in net fee revenue over the agreement term; and Ordinance 26-41 for Project Grit at an existing manufacturing facility, involving about $8.95 million in capital investment and a fee-in-lieu-of-taxes agreement with special-source revenue credits. In council discussion, a member proposed drafting an ordinance requiring developers to fund needed road improvements alongside new development and before homebuilding permits; no action was taken on that proposal. Residents raised concerns about development-related traffic, drainage, emergency-service capacity, and infrastructure costs.
