If deemed to have an elevated temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or greater, visitors will be encouraged to seek medical attention and contact the county’s website for information. Those with elevated temperatures as described will not be allowed to enter the building.
- Each county department will implement social distancing measures and asks everyone to adhere to the procedures accordantly.
The goal of the Fayette County Board of Commissioners is for all citizens to remain healthy and safe. We take these precautions to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 from person-to-person, and we encourage all to continue to practice proper hand washing protocols, social distancing, and cleaning and disinfecting surfaces.
We also ask our residents to continue to contact us via phone, email, or our website, as an alternate option. Contact information for staff is available on the website, when you navigate to the desired department on the left of the website or by calling 770-305-5400 or 770-305-5200.

TYRONE SECTION OF DOGWOOD TRAIL – PARTIAL ROAD OPEN
Fayette County, Georgia – November 21, 2019 – The Town of Tyrone’s section of Dogwood Trail is now OPEN to all traffic. This section of Dogwood Trail between SR 74 and Farr Road has been closed to thru-traffic since July 2019 for a 2017 SPLOST Stormwater Project.
Fayette County’s section of Dogwood Trail between Farr Road and Tyrone Road will remain CLOSED until Spring 2020. The County’s section of Dogwood Trail has been closed to thru-traffic since August 2019 for a 2017 SPLOST Stormwater Project at Flat Creek. This project consists of the demolition and removal of two failing 120-inch corrugated metal pipes and the construction of a 48-ft by 14-ft concrete bottomless arch culvert.
The location of a 6-inch gas main along Dogwood Trail remains in conflict with the County’s project. Atlanta Gas-Light-Southern Co. has been working on a design for a temporary gas line since September 11, 2019. Although the County’s contractor has been able to accomplish some work, the gas line conflict has caused more than a two month delay to date.
