In a statement released by the City of Augusta, feedback that’s collected from the survey will provide a citizen perspective on city services, funding priorities, infrastructure needs and community concerns.

“This effort supports Augusta, Georgia Government’s commitment to transparency, community
engagement, and responsible planning,” said City Administrator Tameka Allen. “We encourage
residents to share their feedback and be part of the conversation as we begin planning for the
2027 budget process.”

Members of the Augusta-area community are mourning the loss of Bryce Adair, who died following a car accident Wednesday in Ohio to work at the Memorial Golf Tournament as a CBS production assistant.

Who was Bryce Adair?

Adair was from Martinez, graduating from Lakeside High School where he played basketball. According to a CBS obituary, he went on to study communications at Valdosta State University and work there as an intramural supervisor. Two of his other career highlights include Augusta National merchandiser and Augusta GreenJackets audio operator.

CBS said Adair contributed to live sports production and broadcasting operations, ensuring coverage at major sporting events ran smoothly and production standards were maintained at a high level. The company said he was known for having a consistently positive energy, reliability, and willingness to support his team.

Here were some of the memorial social media posts made by Adair’s family and friends:

• “Your smile’s the embodiment of the sun; a warmth we shall always remember.”
• “Bryce’s talent was undeniable, and the world is a little dimmer without him in it. He will be missed but never forgotten.”
• “This really broke my heart. I remember hiring him as an employee at the Family Y Prime Time. Such a kind, gentle soul. Praying for the family.”
