At their Monday meeting, Dougherty County Commissioners were presented a proposal from Cell Tower Solutions outlining ways to bring more revenue into the county. 

The company told commissioners  that it would conduct an audit and evaluate cell phone towers throughout the county to ensure that the county is being paid all the money it is due. 

These evaluations are mandatory, but the Tax Assessor Board Chairman say they don't have the means to do these evaluations on their own. 

We're working on this story and will have more information tonight on WALB.
