Commission approves Trembling Earth complex master plan including pickleball; amount unclear in record

Ware County commissioners voted to approve the Trembling Earth complex master plan, which includes new pickleball facilities.

During discussion a figure was read aloud that various speakers rendered differently. One speaker initially said “$1,212,650,” while another immediately contradicted or clarified the figure as “$12,650.” The transcript contains both numbers and does not include a definitive clerical confirmation in the meeting record; the commission nevertheless moved and approved the plan.

Commissioner 3 moved “that we approve this proposal for the Trembling Earth complex master plan and the pickleball included,” the motion was seconded and passed on a voice vote. The meeting did not record a formal amendment to the plan or a breakdown of spending in the audio excerpt.

What happens next: staff will include the master plan in project files and, if necessary, clarify the project budget and scope for future procurement or presentation to the commission.
