Cobb commissioners on Tuesday approved spending nearly $275,000 to demolish 27 townhomes as part of the Windy Hill-Terrell Mill Connector project.
The low bid of $274,055 by Tucker Grading and Hauling was adopted by a 4-0 vote (chairman Mike Boyce was absent).
The demolition of 27 units at the Turnberry Lane Townhomes is part of a larger demolition project that also includes 12 units of the Terrell Ridge Condominiums, and six units at The Woods Condominiums.
In April the commissioners approved a contract for $289,109 to Tucker Grading and Hauling for asbestos removal of the Turnberry Lane and The Woods buildings.
Last month, another $70,800 was approved to tear town The Woods.
The three communities are at the northern end of the $33.5 million connector project, which will be four lanes wide and 0.8 miles long.
The county purchases those properties to keep the project on schedule.
Construction is slated to begin later this year and is expected to be finished by early 2022.
