Jekyll Island’s shoreline erosion would get money, and the prolonged shortage in education funding gets smaller but doesn’t disappear under a spending blueprint Gov. Nathan Deal recommended Thursday to the General Assembly.
He’s asking the legislature to set aside $4 million for the Jekyll Island State Park Authority to use for erosion mitigation.
Also in the spending plan is money for bigger starting pay in four agencies experiencing high employee turnover, the departments of corrections, public health, juvenile justice and behavioral health.
