    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Both of the Bulloch County Fire Department’s two ladder trucks, useful for reaching upper floors of the relatively few tallish buildings out in the county, are out of service this week, as county commissioners heard during their Tuesday meeting. Neither of the trucks is exactly new. With an eye in part to protecting industries in the Bruce Yawn Commerce Park at the I-16 interchange and at other industrial parks and sites, the county government in September 2024 ordered a used 100-foot ladder tru

    Statesboro officials cite split with county on fire service as reason for city tax hike (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    First, the Bulloch County government’s moratorium, previously extended to Dec. 31, against a data center locating anywhere in the county unincorporated area remains in effect.

    Construction of Blue Mile Streetscape Phase 2 still more than 1 year away (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Phase 2 of the Blue Mile streetscape project, estimated to cost roughly $10 million, will continue up South Main Street from in front of Renasant Bank north of the Fair Road intersection to Grady Street at Statesboro-Bulloch County Library. But don’t expect actual construction to begin now – or in the next 12 months. Officials and engineers say the city will probably need that year just to acquire the necessary right of way. Like Phase 1 of the project, Phase 2 will include sidewalks with brick
