The recovery zone listing would designate the county as an economically depressed area. The designation allows governments and businesses to access millions of dollars in low-interest bonds.

Eligibility depends on whether the state Department of Community Affairs reallocates Georgia's $533 million share of federal recovery bond money for local governments that did not get bonds in 2009.
