A resolution to apply for funding through the Atlanta Regional Commission’s Transportation Improvement Plan did not pass because the vote among the Henry County Board of Commissioners ended in a 3-3 tie.

County staff officials urged the board to come up with something that can be approved at the Oct. 1 meeting so the funding request can move forward.
