Hi Ronda:
Due to previous dealings with Mr. Long, Debra asked that a letter be sent that is nicely worded and includes ALL permits that he will be required to get for his proposed transmission
tower, plus our erosion control permit. I’m going to get with Armin and see what all his division will need and then create a letter. I’ll give it to Debra to look at and then she’ll
let Tom Lundy know so he’ll be prepared for the inevitable phone call. It may take a day or two to get it done to everyone’s satisfaction… One thing to note after talking with Jacky
and Debra: there are right-of-way issues with Baker’s Mountain Road (SR 1122) so Mr. Long may indeed “own” the road, or he may not. Planning is looking into it more closely but I wanted
you to know in case you get any questions, you can refer them to Planning.
Also, I had a gentleman come in to complain about his neighbor building up a berm that is now rutting Mauldin Road (off Welding Shop Road). Mr. Nelson Howard (828-324-6827) would like
someone to go look at it and see what can be done, if you call him he’ll meet you out there tomorrow after 3:30. It’s not a State maintained street (more like a goat path) so DOT isn’t
going to do anything. See if you can tell if the damage is done by some sort of construction. I already warned him that there may not be anything we can do. If you can’t catch Mr.
Howard, then please call Steven Mauldin at 828-324-7674 to meet you there.
Nothing like vocal people to make our lives a little more exciting!
Thanks.
