Camden County boards set hearings, purchases, and elections planning; commissioners to weigh parks agreement and base roof contract
Camden County's recent public meetings were scheduled but not yet finalized in published minutes, so the items below reflect what each board placed on its agenda — not confirmed outcomes. The most consequential business on the calendar is the Board of County Commissioners' July 21 agenda, which includes a roof-replacement contract at Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay and an intergovernmental parks-and-recreation agreement with the cities of St. Marys and Kingsland.
