COVIF-19 is a coronavirus outbreak first identified in Wuhan China that was named COVID-19 by the Wolrd Health Organization on February 11, 2020. 

There are many types of human coronaviruses including some that commonly cause mild upper-respiratory tract illnesses. COVID-19 is a new disease, caused be a novel (or new) coronavirus that has not previously been seen in humans.

2. What are the symptoms of COVID-19?

People with COVID-19 have had a wide range of symptoms reported – ranging from mild symptoms to severe illness. Symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus. People with these symptoms may have COVID-19:

• Fever or chills

• Congestion or runny nose
• Nausea or vomiting
• Diarrhea

This list does not include all possible symptoms. CDC will continue to update this list as we learn more about COVID-19.

3. How does COVID-19 spread?

The virus that causes COVID-19 is thought to spread mainly from person to person, mainly through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs. Spread is more likely when people are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet).

COVID-19 seems to be spreading easily and sustainably in the community (“community spread”) in many affected geographic areas. Community spread means people have been infected with the virus in an area, including some who are not sure how or where they became infected.

4. Who is at a higher risk from COVID-19?

COVID-19 is a new disease and there is limited information regarding risk factors for severe disease. Based on currently available information and clinical expertise, older adults and people with underlying medical conditions are at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19.

5. How can I protect myself?

Clean your hands often

• Wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
• If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitize that contains at least 60 percent alcohol.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.

Avoid close contact

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick
• Put distance of at least six feet between yourself and other people.

6. When can you be released from isolation from COVID-19?

Current CDC guidance for when it is OK to release someone from isolation is made on a case by case basis and includes meeting all of the following requirements:

• The patient is free from fever without the use of fever-reducing medications.
• The patient is no longer showing symptoms, including cough.
• The patient has tested negative on at least two consecutive respiratory specimens collected at least 24 hours apart.

Someone who has been released from isolation is not considered to pose a risk of infection to others.

7. What to do if you have contact with someone with COVID-19?

Contact your healthcare provider right away and monitor your symptoms for fever, cough, shortness of breath.

8. Should I be tested for COVID-19?

COVID-19 is a new disease and there is limited information regarding risk factors for severe disease. Based on currently available information and clinical expertise, older adults and people with underlying medical conditions are at higher risk for severe illness from COVID-19.

9. Is there a treatment for COVID-19?

There is no treatment at this time.

10. Can my pets get COVID-19?

According to the CDC there is no evidence that the virus that causes COVID-19 can spread to people from skin or fur of pets. There has been no reports of pets or other animals becoming sick with COVID-19.

1. How do I find my property line?

Surveying Stakes

There should be surveying stakes or pins on your property, which will help locate your properties boundaries. Surveying pins are usually located at the corners of your property. In recent years, they typically are 1/2 inch diameter pipe, sometimes buried into the ground so you may not find them on the surface. Subdivision and / or individual property plats show the shape and dimensions of your lot and where the survey pins should be placed. 

Subdivision & Individual Property Plats

Most subdivision plats are available for review or purchase in the Department of Development Services in the Newton County Administration Building:
1113 Usher Street
Suite 204
Covington, Georgia 30014

Subdivision and / or individual property plats are available for review or purchase in the Clerk of Superior Courts office (Records and Deeds) located on the 3^rd floor of the Newton County Judicial Center:
1132 Usher Street
3rd Floor
Covington, Georgia 30014

After reviewing the following information if you still have questions, you may contact the Department of Development Services at 678-625-1659.

Please call  (770) 784-2035 or visit  https://www.alcovycircuit.com/clerk-of-courts/55-clerk-of-courts/newton-clerk-of-courts/142-real-estate-division.html

 

2. Will the County locate my property stakes for me?

The County does not locate property boundaries in the field for residents. If you cannot locate the original survey pins, the only accurate way to find or replace them is to hire a land surveyor. Land surveyors are listed in the Yellow Pages or you may check with the Newton County Chamber of Commerce.

Fences, Power Poles & Public Walks

Remember, while fences, power poles and public walks may give you a general idea of where your property lines are, they are not always accurate indicators. But they are a good place to start looking for markers. Fences are sometimes located on property lines, but the previous owner may have erected the fence well inside the line. Also, lots are not always uniform in size, so it should not be assumed that your property lines will line up with the lot lines of your neighbors.

Contact Us

After reviewing the following information if you still have questions, you may contact the Department of Development Services at 678-625-1659.

3. Why is it important to know your property line?

When buying a property, part of the process involves receiving survey information about the boundary lines of the property. However, over time, changes to the landscape often can present less clear visions of property lines. Properties that border park, conservation green space, transitional buffers or government lands can also present situations that are not correctly interpreted by landowners. Some landowners assume that since the adjacent parkland will not be developed, it is okay to extend fences, or erect sheds, on that land. This assumption could lead to serious consequences for landowners.

• Knowing the boundary lines of your property could help you avoid:
• Being forced to alter or remove structures that extend over the property line
• Being forced to remove or move landscaping that encroach or extend over the property line
• Fines
• Lawsuits
• Neighbor disputes

Examples

Examples of situations when it is important to know property line locations

• If you disagree with your neighbor on the property line location
• If you plan to build a new structure or add onto an existing structure
• If you plan to erect a fence, pool or deck
• If you plan to plant, trim or remove a tree or bush near your property line

Impact Fee

Show All Answers

1. What are impact fees?

An impact fee is a charge or assessment imposed for a proportionate share of the cost of capital improvements or facility expansion required by the new growth to maintain adequate service levels throughout the county. For more in depth information on impact fees visit the Georgia Department of Community Affairs.

2. When are impact fees paid?

Impact fees are to be paid in full at the time a building permit or business license is issued. For more in depth information on impact fees visit the Georgia Department of Community Affairs.

3. How are impact fees assessed?

Impact fees are assessed based on the type of use and the size of the development. For more in depth information on impact fees visit the Georgia Department of Community Affairs.

4. What if my particular development type is not listed on the fee schedule?

If a development does not fall within a specific category on a fee schedule, the Impact Fee Coordinator shall use the fee applicable to the closest type of use. If the Impact Fee Coordinator concludes that there is no closely related activity on the schedule, the Impact Fee Coordinator shall determine the fee by using traffic generation statistics (ITE Trip Generation). For more in depth information on impact fees visit the Georgia Department of Community Affairs.

5. I have a mobile home on my property. I am planning to replace it with another mobile home. Will I owe an impact fee?

No. The replacement of a mobile home on a lot/site where one previously existed (legally) is not subject to impact fees even if the new mobile home is larger than the original one. For more in depth information on impact fees visit the Georgia Department of Community Affairs.

6. How will the money from the fees be used?

The fees will be allotted to libraries, parks, and roads based on the impact fee schedule. Only money in the library account can be used on libraries, only money in the parks account can be used on parks, and only money in the roads account can be used on roads. For more in depth information on impact fees visit the Georgia Department of Community Affairs.

7. I am applying for a business license in an existing location. Why do I need to worry about impact fees?

When a new business moves into a location that was previously occupied by another business, the impact on the surrounding area may be affected. If a small restaurant moves into a building that was previously home to a gift shop the traffic will increase. This causes more growth and impact to the area than before. The new business would only be charged for change of impact. For more in depth information on impact fees visit the Georgia Department of Community Affairs.

9. How much detail is needed on the ballot in describing proposed SPLOST projects?

The Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) law requires that the purpose or purposes for which the SPLOST revenues will be used be specified on the ballot. The degree of specificity required is not addressed in the law. However, the Attorney General of Georgia has concluded that:

No. A separate Education Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) for school construction is available to boards of education.

11. Can SPLOST funds be used to construct projects for local charities or other nonprofit organizations?

No. The gratuities clause of the Georgia Constitution bars local governments from using Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) revenues or any other public funds to fund the capital outlay projects for non-public entities. This restriction applies to for-profit organizations as well as not-for-profit organizations, including charitable organizations.

12. After the SPLOST referendum has passed, may a county use other available revenue to begin the construction on the SPLOST-approved projects and to reimburse itself once the revenues start to come in?

Yes. Counties may issue debt or borrow form their general fund to get projects underway promptly.

The approved projects could be scaled back, but not abandoned. A local government must make up any shortfall from their general fund or other funding sources.

Yes.

Time frames for individual projects should reflect the priority.

17. If a municipality has completed its projects and has SPLOST revenue remaining, can it give this revenue to another municipality that needs additional revenues to complete its approve projects?

No. Any funds remaining after a municipality has completed all of its approved projects can become “excess proceeds”.

There is nothing in the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) law that prevents conversion to a different use.

Yes. The law allows counties and municipalities to use Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) revenues to fund capital outlay projects supporting enterprise operations, such as water or sewer system improvements.

Yes. Several types of regional facilities may be financed through Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST), including development authorities, regional jails, regional correctional institutions and other detention facilities, regional solid waste handling facilities and regional recovered material processing facilities. Where a proper intergovernmental agreement is entered into, SPLOST revenues may be used to finance a county’s portion of a project owned or operated by a regional authority.

24. Can SPLOST funds be used to reduce property taxes?

Although counties cannot directly include a property tax rollback as an eligible expenditure on the referendum, counties can use Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) funds to pay for capital outlay projects that would otherwise be funded through property tax revenues. Also, if excess proceeds remain after SPLOST projects have been completed and there is no county debt, the excess proceeds must go to the general fund of the county to reduce county property taxes.

25. Can SPLOST proceeds be used to pay off revenue bonds that are outstanding at the time of SPLOST referendum?

No. While Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) proceeds can be used to retire existing general obligation debt, the proceeds cannot be used to pay off existing revenue bonds. However, counties may issue revenue bonds after the referendum is approved to provide funds to get projects initiated before all revenues are collected.

26. Can SPLOST be borrowed to pay for other county services or projects and paid back later form the general fund?

No. Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) funds my only be used or capital outlay projects approved by the voters in a SPLOST referendum.

The county is responsible for estimating the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) revenues expected to be collected over the life of the SPLOST, as well as the costs of all projects to be financed. The county should also ensure that the sum of all projects costs, including those submitted by municipalities, equals the estimated revenues.
