About Union County, GA

The Conservative Business Alliance presents an informational Town Hall meeting on the Transportation SPLOST issue scheduled for a vote on the July 2012 ballot. The meeting will be held in the Blairsville GA Civic Center on Monday January 23, 2012 at 6 PM and all Union County GA voters are urged to attend.

A panel of Union County GA Commissioner Lamar Paris, Blairsville Mayor Jim Conley and CBA spokesperson Patrick Malone will provide information on the Transportation Investment Act 2010 (the enabling legislation), the regional roundtable process to select the projects, the specific Union County GA projects that made the final list, the funding of these projects and the local road funding possible through this referendum.

After this short presentation the panel will be available to answer questions from the audience. Plan to attend to so that you can make a well informed decision when you cast your vote.
