DeKalb County, one of only two in the state with a penny homestead option sales tax, recently agreed to tackle more road projects this year now that it has completed its planned yearly project list.
That $907,000 includes an additional $560,000 that will be sent to DeKalb's cities for their share of the HOST money, which is to be used for capital improvements such as roadways or sidewalks.
The county plans to use most of its share to match grant awards for projects such as a traffic study for I-85.
