Expected to be completed by the end of May, Bulloch County’s new government annex building will provide improved services to the public and more room for county employees.Located adjacent to the current county annex building on North Main Street, the new structure is 13,437 square feet in size and will house the voter registrar/elections offices, as well as the offices of the county’s tax commissioner and tax assessor, said Bulloch County Manager Tom Couch.The project’s final cost is forecast to be about $2.4 million, Couch said. Lavender and Associates, the firm handling the construction project, issued the county a “guaranteed maximum price” of $2.4 million, and the end expense will be close to that, he said.A contingency fund of $120,000, for unforeseen expenses, still has about $90,000 left, he said. An additional $160,000 was set aside for other expenses as well, and Couch said those funds will likely be spent on furnishings, landscaping and other needs.“It will be right on budget,” he said.The monies funding the construction came from SPLOST (Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax) revenue from the 1997, 2007 and 2013 SPLOST, he said.
