The meeting addressed several significant items, including proposals for historical indexing and imaging of Real Estate Deeds, with consideration of using ARPA Funds. A resolution concerning 11 properties partially located in Lanier County was tabled pending further legal counsel review, and a discussion took place regarding the necessity of surveying and platting roads for Mr. Tommy Baber.
