The Athens-Clarke County Commission met last night in its new and temporary meeting space, gathering at the Clarke County School District’s central office on Prince Avenue while City Hall gets new security upgrades. Commissioners will continue to meet at School Board headquarters until returning to City Hall, likely in August.
There is an afternoon meeting of the Athens-Clarke County Hearings Board, 3 o’clock at the Government Building on Dougherty Street.
Oconee County Commissioners voted last night to allocate $87 thousand to help meet staffing shortfalls in the Western Circuit District Attorney’s office.

Oconee County Commissioners held last night the first of two hearings on the Oconee County budget. A second public hearing is scheduled for May 21, with Commissioners scheduled to vote on the new County spending plan on June 4.
