Bulloch County Commissioners did not reject the idea of partially funding a multi-purpose park in Downtown Statesboro when presented with the notion during their scheduled meeting Tuesday. Though, they didn’t pledge the county’s assistance either. County leaders, who listened to proponents of the open-area facility speak about its potential economic impact and need within the community, voiced a sentiment of support for the Main Street Farmers Market — which would be provided a permanent home by the park — but resisted requests to allocate $600,000 of potential Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) funds to help pay for the project.
