Colquitt County is actively investigating legal options about
the methane pipeline Spectra Energy wants to gouge through here.
Other county attorneys could be as active.

County commission meetings to focus on Sabal Trail pipeline,
Colquitt County Commission will receive updates Monday and Tuesday
on a proposed natural gas pipeline that could pass through the
county.
County Attorney Lester Castellow, who reently met with his
counterparts from Brooks, Doughterty and Lowndes counties, is
scheduled to address commissioners about the project during a Monday
afternoon commission work session.
And representatives of Sabal Trail, the company that is building an
Alabama-to-Florida gas pipeline will address commissoiners at
Tuesday night’s commission meeting.
“Basically we’re going to be discussing what a local
govermnent can and cannot do relative to the planning and
construction of an interstate gas pipeline,” Castellow said
during a Friday telephone interview.
It’s on the agenda for the
12 noon Monday 10 February 2014 Work Session:
3. Lester Castellow, County Attorney – Potential Options for Sabal Trail Natural Gas Pipeline
That’s at Room 261-C, Courthouse Annex, 101 East Central Avenue, Moultrie, GA 31768.
Colquitt County’s
calendar doesn’t say when the Tuesday 11 February
Regular Session will be, but
the previous one was at 7PM.
Presumably the Regular Session will have an agenda
similar to the Work Session.
