What this means now
The story
In April 2025, the Habersham County Parks and Recreation Advisory Board considered creating a board secretary position and electing officers. Members voted to delay choosing a volunteer secretary until the following meeting.
The matter resurfaced in January 2026 as a broader review of the board's bylaws. The board voted 5-0 to review the bylaws and bring suggestions to its next meeting.
In February 2026, the board again tabled the bylaws review until a later meeting.
