Union County's Gem: The Community Center Made Possible by SPLOST

Welcome to a hidden gem in Union County, where luxury meets affordability and community spirit thrives. You might be surprised to learn that this isn't your typical upscale country club. Instead, it's a testament to the successful implementation of the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) in enhancing community facilities.

A Golf Course for Everyone

Imagine a golf course with a stunning view and top-notch amenities. You might envision an exclusive, high-priced club, but Union County's public golf course defies expectations. With an annual membership fee of just $600, the course offers affordability without compromising quality. Here, you're not just paying for a round of golf; you're investing in an experience. The greens fees and cart rentals are additional, but they grant you access to more than just a game – they open up a world of breathtaking scenery.

More Than Just Golf

The Union County Community Center, powered by SPLOST funds, isn't just about golf. It's a multifaceted facility that serves as a hub for various community activities. Hosting the Development Authority, Chamber Of Commerce, Pro Shop, and the View Grill, it's a beacon of local collaboration and growth.

Culinary Delights with a View

The View Grill, aptly named for its spectacular vistas, offers more than just a meal; it's a feast for the senses. Enjoy a drink at the bar, reputed to have the best view in town, or savor your lunch as you gaze out at the stunning landscape. This experience is not just about the food; it's about the ambiance and the community spirit that fills the air.

Versatile Event Spaces

From weddings to conferences, the Union County Community Center caters to various events. With three distinct meeting areas, including a large ballroom and a conference room, the center is equipped to host events of all sizes. The attention to detail is evident, with visitors often comparing the facilities to those of a five-star hotel.

The Role of SPLOST in Community Development

Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of this center is how it was funded. Avoiding the burden of increased property taxes on homeowners, the facility was built using SPLOST funds. This approach not only alleviated financial stress on residents but also fostered a sense of communal investment in public amenities.

Economic and Social Benefits

The Union County Community Center, funded through SPLOST, is more than a recreational facility. It's a driver of local economy, attracting visitors who contribute to the hotel and motel tax revenue. It's a symbol of what a community can achieve when it comes together to invest in its future.

Union County: A Fantastic Place to Live

In conclusion, the Union County Community Center is not just a luxurious destination; it's a reflection of the community's values and aspirations. It stands as a shining example of how SPLOST funds can be effectively used to enhance the quality of life for residents and visitors alike.
