Phase two of the project includes the project includes new signage, sports lighting, modifying existing parking areas and applying new striping, resurfacing the tennis court and renovating the existing concession and restroom building. 

The commission will also consider a resolution to reduce the commission fee charged to the Cherokee County Board of Education to collect its taxes and an agreement with Garden Godfather, Inc.

The agreement would entail the company referring to the county potential operators who may be interested in purchasing, leasing or agreeing to a lease-purchase of the Ball Ground Recycling facility.
