Welcome aboard! This is a list of public meetings and agendas to help you follow the work of officials you’ve elected.

Turn down the lights?

Glynn County might soon join the coastal communities that curtail light pollution to keep beaches safely dark for nesting sea turtles. 

Residents packed two meetings about proposed zoning updates and they talked turtles, reports The Current GA’s Jabari Gibbs. Lights above the new Brunswick Buc-ee’s may misorient turtles on beaches miles away, The Current first reported last year.

New rules might require lights point away from the beach or use amber, red or other color bulbs that are less disruptive to turtles’ vision. The proposed outdoor lighting rules are a small part of a very large zoning update.

Your community might be planning ordinances too, on anything from cemetery regulations to tree protection to fees for developers. See what’s on your local government’s schedule for the next two weeks using our calendar and agenda links below.  Let us know how we’re doing at staff@thecurrentga.org.

This list starts with an automated collection that does not involve AI. It is checked and edited by a human. But agencies may announce new meetings, change meeting times or cancel them, sometimes without any online notice. Some publish calendars in more than one place with different information.  Some rely on Facebook posts which may require a login to read and cannot be collected automatically. 

You may want to call ahead and verify the meeting time and place, especially for smaller agencies.
