County leaders to discuss potential SPLOST projects
Placeholder Image
Though yet to reach a collective agreement to allow citizens vote for an early extension of the existing Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST), Bulloch County Commissioners and city officials will assemble today to confer about future SPLOST-funded projects. County Commissioners will meet with representatives from Brooklet, Portal, Register and Statesboro in the North Main Annex’s Community Room at 11:45 a.m. to review preliminary lists of projects to be paid for with tax revenue during a six-year period beginning in 2013. The conference is set to occur one week after the group of local leaders discussed a proposal that would have residents vote November 8, 2011, instead of 2012, to extend the county tax — the current SPLOST will expire in November 2013.
