In it's regular monthly meeting Tuesday night the Lyerly Council discussed the projects it would like to include on the ballot come March. Voters will vote on the measure this year, but the actual tax doesn't begin until 2014, when the current SPLOST ends. Mayor Josh Wyatt said he kept the language broad in case something comes up later in case the town comes up with more projects for the funds.

In other business the council discussed a project that would produce a sidewalk to the park. Wyatt said the town is eligible for almost $6,000 in L-MIG funds. L-MIG is the former DOT LARK Paving Grant. It is a local maintenance and improvement grant. The amount of funding received is based on the linear foot of street in the city limits. Wyatt said the amount is probably not enough to complete the project but he was told to get a cost estimate and preliminary drawing to the DOT.
