At a glance
What this means now
The story
In December 2024, the Habersham County Board of Commissioners approved an intent resolution authorizing county staff, the county's financial advisor and legal counsel to proceed with installment sale financing of up to $6,850,000 for the Animal Control Facility project.
At a February 2025 planning retreat, the board received a status update on the SPLOST-funded Animal Control Facility project from the county's Capital Projects Manager.
On March 17, 2025, the board held a public hearing on financing the facility through a tax-exempt installment sale agreement. The county's financial advisor recommended accepting a 3.64% bid from PNC Bank to finance the project, an interest rate the advisor said amounted to about $600,000 in savings compared to the initial estimate. No vote was taken on the item at that point in the meeting.
Later in the same March 17 meeting, commissioners voted 3-0 to approve Resolution #2025-03-002 authorizing the Chairman to execute all documents related to the financing, and separately voted 3-0 to award the bid for the financing of the acquisition, construction and installation of the new animal control facility through the Series 2025 tax-exempt installment sale agreement to PNC Bank.
