Cobb commissioners will receive an update during its Tuesday meeting on an early retirement program offered to county employees in January. Overall 226 employees took advantage of the program, including the county's police chief, along with the public services and finance directors.
Commissioners will also discuss authorizing the county's Development Authority to issue $70 million in low-interest revenue bonds to help Kennesaw State University pay for and build athletic fields and facilities and a stadium. KSU will guarantee the debt. Cobb County would not be liable for the money if the university's foundation defaults, said Michael Hughes, Cobb's economic development director.
The commission meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. June 22.
