Lunch and Learn —Joe Pritchard @ LCC 26 July 2011

New program for the public to learn about Lowndes County government.

In his County Manager report, Joe Pritchard announced the first first lunch and learn, which will be a discussion of general government, noon 'til 1PM, 11 August 2011, second floor of administrative complex.

“The lunch and learn program will take various topics, and allow the public to meet for an hour, ask questions, interact on those particular topics.”

County Clerk Paige Dukes will be conducting this first meeting.

Commissioner Crawford Powell asked

how many people would be in the room. Paige Dukes said 30 people. Powell asked for that information to be posted to the county's website. She said she would. He asked for a larger room, if necessary, such as council chambers. She said one goal was to keep it small so as to encourage interaction.

If she's put it on the county website, I can't find it, not on the front page, not on the County Clerk's page, and not in the calendar.

Pritchard also recognized intern James Pogue. (That's my guess at the spelling; nothing written was displayed.)

“He's assisted both planning, engineering — almost every department in some way.”

Finally, Pritchard said the county had received some estimates for resurfacing on Snake Nation Road, but he needed some time to organize funding before presenting details.
