SERVICE DELIVERY STRATEGY UPDATE

Spalding County and the City of Griffin renegotiated their Service Delivery Strategy (SDS) in 2022. The SDS outlines services the county and city provide local businesses and residents.

The Georgia Service Delivery Strategy Act of 1997 created the process that local governments within a county should follow when coming to an agreement about the distribution of services

The goal of the SDS update is to minimize inefficiencies in cost, manpower, and reach It also helps ensure we don't duplicate efforts or cause unnecessary competition Furthermore, it provides a way to resolve disputes when it comes to service delivery, funding equity, and land use
