Camden County Votes to Dissolve Spaceport Authority

At the March 5, 2024, regular meeting, the Camden County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a resolution to dissolve the Camden County Spaceport Authority.

In February 2019, the Camden County Board of Commissioners sought to establish an authority for
the creation, management, and operation of Spaceport Camden. Local legislators introduced House
Bill 682, and it was passed by both the Georgia House and Georgia Senate before it was signed into
law on May 6, 2019.

Following the guidelines set in the Camden County Spaceport Authority Act, the Camden County
Board of Commissioners appointed members to the Spaceport Authority in March 2022. However,
the Camden County Spaceport Authority held no meetings.

“The Camden County Spaceport Authority existed on paper, never met, and took no action,” said
Chairman Ben Casey. “The resolution begins the process to dissolve the authority which is
anticipated to be finalized by the Georgia General Assembly.”
