County leadership told the August 15 meeting that planned blacktop and roadwork will push the county's use of road flex funds above the statutory or administrative 65% threshold for the fiscal period. The Judge asked for authority to sign a letter to the Department for Local Government (DLG) seeking an exemption so projects can continue.
A magistrate moved to authorize the Judge to sign the DLG exemption request and the motion carried with no recorded opposition. Court members emphasized the work this fall would require the higher spending level and characterized the request as a technical, short-term waiver to permit necessary pavement work.
