Greetings...

On behalf of our entire administrative staff and the Board of Commissioners; welcome to the online office of Upson County, Georgia.  I’d like to take just a moment to tell you how excited we are to have you on Team Upson. 

 

Upson County is a great place to be firmly rooted.  Whether you are starting a family or establishing a business; residents will tell you it is West Central Georgia’s place to live, work and play.  Upson has a population of approximately 28,000 and a total area of 326 square miles. The county has a continually growing, first-class infrastructure with more than 600 miles of roads.

The Board of Commissioners and I are working diligently alongside the various elected officials and department heads planning for Upson County's bright future.  We’re using the Comprehensive Plan as a roadmap for the County's growth over the coming years. Improving quality of life for our residents and development of an environment that fosters business growth and advancement are paramount for the Commissioners.

In recent years, the members of the Commission have demonstrated a commitment to economic development by providing funding for numerous projects around the county in addition to the work being conducted on projects from the multi-million dollar, six-year, SPLOST.

The Upson County Board of Commissioners meets every second and fourth Tuesday of the month at 7 p.m. in the Thomaston-Upson Government Complex.  Citizens are encouraged to attend meetings.  Upson County Departments are committed to customer service and transparency in government; and you can reach them anytime from 8:00 until 5:00 Monday through Friday. 

We pride ourselves in maintaining a responsive and professional government; providing a full range of county-run municipal services to our citizens and a host of national and international visitors.  Please let us know if we can be of assistance in any way.

Thank You for visiting with our site.

 

 Mr. Kyle Hood, MPA
