Glynn County commissioners accepted a $385,000 2026 LRA Supplemental Award from the Georgia Department of Transportation for the Old Jesup Road portion of the 2026 LMIG Project at their Oct. 15 meeting.
The project’s total cost is $550,000. The county’s $165,000 match equals 30% of that cost and will be funded through the SPLOST 2022 Tier 1 Road Resurfacing Project.
Meeting minutes show commissioners approved the consent agenda, including the Old Jesup Road award item, by a 5-0 vote.
A separate $146,108 HEAT grant from the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety is for the Glynn County Police Department’s Traffic Enforcement Unit HEAT Team, not the Old Jesup Road project.
The Oct. 15 meeting began at 6 p.m. at the Historic Glynn County Courthouse, 701 “G” Street, second-floor Commissioners’ Meeting Chambers.
