Yesterday during a Special Called meeting, the Glynn County Commission approved a resolution to hold an election for a three year, one percent SPLOST to be held March 16.
The SPLOST is expected to generate $68.5 million with $35.3 million going toward Glynn County projects, $13.2 million for Brunswick projects, $15 million for the Joint Water and Sewer commission, $2.5 million for Development Authority projects, and $2.5 million for Jekyll Island.
About half of the county’s funds are designated for road projects; the development authority portion will go for site development; $3.5 million of the JWSC’s share will go toward the Arco area water service extension; Jekyll Island will repair the Clam Creek pier and pave more bike paths. $8.3 million of the city’s share will go toward infrastructure including paving and storm drainage improvements.
