Dawson County commissioners approve routine minutes and a $5,400 opioid-abatement grant, table COLA resolution
The Dawson County Board of Commissioners approved routine business and the consent agenda at its Dec. 4, 2025 voting session.

The board approved minutes from the Nov. 20 work session and Nov. 20 voting session on motions made by Commissioner Stowers (seconded by Commissioner Bruce and Commissioner Turquette as noted in the record). The consent agenda included ratification of a Georgia Opioid Crisis Abatement Trust grant award of $5,400 for treatment services with no county match; the consent agenda was approved and recorded as 4-0.

In unfinished business the board considered a resolution regarding cost-of-living adjustments and supplements for elected officials that had been tabled from Nov. 20. Commissioner Gaines moved to table the COLA resolution to the board’s next meeting on Dec. 18; Commissioner Bruce seconded and the motion to table carried 4-0.

The board then adjourned. Other items on the agenda included the zoning appeal VA-25-15 (reported separately) and routine procedural motions to approve the meeting agenda.
