The Hall County Government will be holding several Transportation Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (TSPLOST) public information sessions this month before the ballot question on Nov. 5.
“The TSPLOST ballot question will be very generic and provide little detail,” Hall County Administrator Zach Propes said. “We want to ensure voters are informed before they reach the polls, and attending one of our informational sessions is one of the easiest ways voters can learn about the program.”
All presentations will be free and open to the public.
Sessions to be held include:
-
Oct. 7 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the Hall County Government Center, 2nd floor training room, 2875 Browns Bridge Rd., Gainesville
-
Oct. 7 at 6 p.m. there will be a presentation at the Lula Train Depot, 5911 Wall St., Lula
-
Oct. 8 at 3 p.m. at the Smithgall Arts Center on 331 Spring Street SW, Gainesville
-
Oct. 10 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. there will be a drop-in event at the Mulberry Creek Community Center in the Half Community Room on 4491 JM Turk Rd., Flowery Branch
-
Oct. 14 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. there will be another drop-in event at the Downtown Library’s 2nd floor meeting room at 127 Main St. NW, Gainesville
-
Oct. 15 at 6:30 p.m. there will be a presentation at the Clermont Chattahoochee Center on 639 Main St., Clermont
-
And on Oct. 21 at 6 p.m. there will be another presentation at Oakwood City Hall on 4035 Walnut Circle, Oakwood.
“We cover the projects that would be completed using TSPLOST dollars, the breakdown of how funds would be allocated and, most importantly, we offer an opportunity for citizens to ask any questions they may have about the proposed program,” Propes said.
There is also an information page on the 2024 TSPLOST that can be found here.
