MOULTRIE, Ga. — The Colquitt County Board of Commissioners approved several expenditures Tuesday night, including the purchase of an aerial photography program to assist the Board of Assessors, but it held off on a reduced project to digitize records at the Colquitt County Clerk of Court’s office.
Deed records at the clerk of court’s office are already digitized and indexed back to 1990, according to a presentation from Court Clerk Lynn Purvis at the commission’s July 20 work session. She presented a proposal at that meeting to digitize the records back to 1960 at a cost of $50,890, but that cost would not include indexing the material. The reason 1960 was chosen was because an attorney working to clarify the title of land that’s being sold has to go back 60 years under state law.  ....

MOULTRIE, Ga. — The Colquitt County Board of Commissioners quietly approved a $23.24 million budget at its Tuesday work session.
The vote came after more than a month of budget hearings in which each department head presented the case for his requested budget.
The budget, which will take effect July 1, is $441,199 more than the current fiscal year’s budget, an increase of about 1.8%. County Administrator Chas Cannon said most of the difference is capital equipment, including a truck for the Tax Assessors Office, another for the county Extension agent, a planned upgrade to internet bandwidth, and service agreements for the ambulance service that cover the next six years.  ....
