Cornelia Put Its 2022 Budget Before the Public, but the Final Action Is Unclear

Cornelia’s commission agenda for Dec. 6, 2021 placed a public hearing regarding the city’s 2022 budget before the public. That scheduled hearing was the formal step identified for residents to hear about and weigh in on the spending plan. But the agenda itself stops at the scheduled item: it does not say whether the hearing was held, whether anyone spoke, or whether commissioners acted afterward.
