FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — The Forsyth County Board of Voter Registrations and Elections unanimously today (Aug. 5) approved a resolution calling for a November 8, 2022 referendum to submit to the voters a question of whether to impose a Transportation Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (TSPLOST).
The original resolution that was to have been approved included the project lists for both the city and county. However, an amendment approved by the Board of Commissioners yesterday, eliminated the need to include the lists, which are already a matter of public record.
County Manager Kevin Tanner attended today’s meeting and stated “The number one issue on our citizens’ minds is transportation. “One of the challenges we have as a county is Post Road. Just to do that one road is $100 million. This will give us continuing funding for transportation.”
Tanner also noted the county is on track to be debt free by 2031.”I don’t know there is another county in the state of Georgia the size of Forsyth County that will be able to say they are debt free. We don’t want to take on additional debt as a county.”
