From the Henssler Financial Studios this is your news minute on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast presented by Engineered Solutions of Georgia. Today is Monday July 24th, and I'm Brian Giffin .
The city of Smyrna has a new contract with Acworth, Powder Springs, Sandy Springs, and Marietta to house inmates at $75 per day, a 50% increase from previous arrangements with those cities.
The intergovernmental agreement has standardized booking and bonding procedures, applied at different times for each city.
The Smyrna City Council plans to allocate over $625,000 for purchases, repairs, and property enhancements, such as landscaping the town square and pavilion entrance. Key expenses include replacing a water main line and sewer in Ward 5.
The Council will also consider funding improvements in various city locations and review a zoning request for six single-family homes on Madison Street. The public's input will be sought regarding maintaining the current millage rate of 8.99, unchanged since 2008. Read more about this story at mdjonline.com.
