Baldwin weighs grant strategy for proposed solids-handling upgrade

Baldwin officials on Aug. 5, 2025, discussed proposed agreements with the Georgia Mountains Regional Commission to administer grant applications connected to a planned solids-handling building and new screw press for the city’s utility system. The item came before the City Council at a work session, where staff described the agreements as part of pursuing Appalachian Regional Commission and Economic Development Administration funding; the minutes do not show that either agreement was approved.
