The story
Royston City Council's July 14, 2026 agenda included a resolution to authorize an intergovernmental agreement with Hart County and the county's municipalities to call for a TSPLOST referendum.
At that meeting, on a motion by Councilman Fields, the council approved the resolution authorizing the intergovernmental agreement, 6-0. The agreement also addresses how referendum proceeds would be allocated, with amounts listed including a $30,000,000 total and shares such as $22,837,800, $6,000,000, $716,200, $716,800, $371,200 and $74,200.
