Regular meeting of the Black Mountain Board of Alderman from Sept. 10, 2018. To view the agenda, or future meeting agendas, please visit townofblackmountain.org.
A
A
B
I'm
gonna
pray
this
evening
over
the
town,
but
could
I
ask
that
we
just
pray
for
those
in
the
wake
of
this
hurricane
and
they're
coming
through.
We
do
that
now,
Heavenly
Father
as
I
begin
this
prayer.
It
is
my
heart's
desires
long
as
well
with
these
citizens
here
tonight
that
we
just
pray
your
protection
upon
those
that
lie
in
the
wake
of
the
hurricane.
B
That's
coming
in
father,
we
ask
that
you
just
be
with
the
evacuations
and
the
emergency
services
that
will
respond,
and
we
just
ask
you
Lord
that
you'll
just
shower
your
grace
and
mercy
upon
that
situation
as
vacuous
may
make
their
way
to
Black
Mountain.
May
we
be
a
town
of
refuge
of
love
and
hospitality,
Lord
that
you
will
just
continue
to
watch
over
that
situation.
I
pray,
father
for
the
town
of
Black
Mountain.
B
As
we
begin
tonight's
meeting
Lord
I
want
to
invoke
your
blessings
that
you
would
continue
to
bless
the
citizens
and
the
life
here,
Lord
that
you
will
just
continue
to
lead
and
guide
this
Board
of
Aldermen
our
mayor
Lord.
You
provide
wisdom
and
father
I
pray
and
ask
your
protection
upon
our
own
emergency
services
and
Lord
that,
as
we
continue
to
carry
out
daily
life
here,
my
lord
that
you
will
continue
to
shine
and
show
your
love
here
in
brilliant
ways
that
we
might
know
that
you
have
placed
your
favor
on
this
place.
Lord.
B
A
C
Mr.
mayor,
at
our
last
meeting,
I
gave
you
all
a
synopsis
of
the
work
going
on
in
the
planning
department
and
briefly
outlined
some
of
the
current
projects.
This
board
can
expect
to
see
in
the
upcoming
months,
including
rewriting
the
stormwater,
ordinance
and
flood
related
ordinances.
I've
made
some
progress
on
this
front
and
will
continue
working
with
our
staff.
Colleagues
at
the
state,
a
consulting
engineer
and
the
community
in
order
to
draft
have
a
draft
of
that
to
you
in
the
near
future.
C
A
few
of
the
improvements
we
are
researching
and
considering
include
higher
design
standards
in
which
will
require
stormwater
infrastructure,
that
is
on
site,
such
as
a
retention
pond
to
hold
a
greater
volume
of
water.
We
will
also
be
interested
in
requiring
developers
to
meet
with
staff
for
a
consultation
before
they
submit
their
stormwater
permits
for
review.
We're
also
interested
in
decreasing
the
size
of
projects
required
to
get
a
stormwater
permit,
therefore,
requiring
additional
permits
than
we
do
now.
Increasing
oversight.
C
We're
also
curious
about
what
it
would
look
like
if
single-family
projects
were
required
to
submit
a
stormwater
solution
sheet
along
with
their
building
permit.
In
order
to
make
sure
that
their
storm
water
is
not
negatively
impacting
their
neighbors
inadvertently,
in
addition
to
these
ordinances,
I
look
forward
to
working
with
the
community
and
our
partnering
agencies
to
implement
programs
and
outreach
efforts
designed
to
better
control,
stormwater
conditions
and
o'the
that
ultimately
protect
life
and
property
and
improve
and
protect
the
conditions
of
the
rivers
that
we
all
enjoy
in
this
part
of
the
state.
C
C
That
is
a
map
of
where
our
greatest
storm
water
needs
are
from
our
Public.
Services
Department
I
have
the
base
layers
of
a
map
with
all
of
our
existing
storm
water
infrastructure,
and
here
I,
have
forms
and
my
business
card
for
everyone
here
in
the
community
to
submit
and
their
document
storm
water
problems
that
you
were
having
so
I
have
a
consistent
way
of
tracking
their
location
and
mapping
them.
On
top
of
our
infrastructure,
to
see
where
the
gaps
are.
C
So
we
can
begin
prioritizing
areas
to
look
for
funding
and
creating
projects
in
relationship
to
those
areas.
I
know
that
this
is
not
an
easy
solution
and
it's
not
a
fast
fix,
but
it's
a
step
in
the
right
direction
and
we
cannot
make
great
decisions
unless
we
have
great
data,
so
I'm
going
to
have
these
out
by
the
door.
C
D
The
beginning,
October
1st,
the
trash
and
recycle
schedule
will
change.
Tuesday
pickups
will
be
picked
up
Thursday
if
you're
serviced
on
Wednesdays.
Currently
that
will
be
moved
to
Friday
waste
Pro
advised
us
that
they
will
be
no
longer
servicing
another
location
in
the
county
and
that
will
provide
more
trucks
and
manpower
for
them
to
dedicate
to
Black
Mountain.
In
the
event
mechanical
problems,
or
you
know,
staffing
issues
they'll
be
able
to
provide
better
customer
service
for
Black
Mountain,
so
October
1st.
If
you're
Tuesday,
you
will
be
picked
up,
Thursday
and
Wednesday
will
move
to
Friday.

Whereas
bill
Hamby
has
developed
the
wood
yard
ministry
to
help
provide
firewood
for
the
clients
at
Solano,
Valley
Christian
ministry,
who
rely
on
this
fuel
source
to
keep
their
families
warm
and
whereas
bill
Hamby.
Who
is
what
a
loving
father,
husband
friend,
who
carries
out
strong
faith
in
Christ
by
using
his
gifts
to
serve
others?
Now,
therefore,
hi
Don
Collins,
the
mayor
of
town,
black
mountain
on
behalf
of
the
Board
of
Aldermen
and
the
citizens
of
Black
Mountain,
wish
to
honor
and
do
hereby
proclaim.
September
10
2018
as
William
C
hammy.
E
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
and
members
of
the
board
I
very
much
appreciate
this.
I
would
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
actually
thank
the
board
I've
known
most
of
you
in
one
way
or
another,
either
through
family
relationships.
Larry's.
My
brother-in-law
sister
brother
to
Nancy
here
grew
up
somewhat,
with
Rick
Don's
go
ahead
and
graduated
high
school
there
with
Ron
and
family
friends
and
associates
with
Maggie
and
the
course
team
here
through
school
relationships.
E
As
far
as
our
permits
were
concerned,
and
then
during
the
course
of
the
initial
stage
of
the
project,
the
former
mayor,
Mike
Sobel,
said
you
probably
ought
to
get
in
touch
with
the
town's
representative
MSD
board
and
then
at
the
time
was
done
since
I
called
him.
He
got
right
on
board
and
through
his
efforts
and
the
administration
Matt.
So
my
writing.
The
and
identifying
our
project
as
a
affordable
housing
project
that
ended
up
saving
the
the
Swan
Nevada
Christian
ministries
in
the
process,
almost
twenty
two
thousand
dollars.
E
G
E
A
Just
she
had
a
light
on
this
important
issue
and
encourage
involvement
and
efforts
to
end
hunger
in
this
community.
Now,
therefore,
dawn
Collins,
mayor
of
town
Black
Mountain,
do
hereby
proclaim
the
month
of
September
2018
to
be
the
hunger
action
month
in
our
town
and
encourage
all
citizens
to
take
the
time
during
this
month.
We
call
this
observance
to
the
attention
of
our
citizens,
missus
on
September,
10,
2008
teen,
and
we
had
someone
from
bounty
and
soul
would
like
to
make.
We
discuss
them
was
born
our
lives.
H
Good
evening,
everyone,
my
name,
is
carla
gardner
and
I'm
the
director
of
community
engagement
for
bounty
and
soul.
I
want
to
thank
everyone
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
this
evening.
I'll.
Keep
it
brief.
Hunger
action
month
is
a
nationwide
initiative
that
was
started
by
feeding
America
and
so
through
partners
like
manna
Food
Bank,
there
are
hunger
relief
organizations
throughout
the
country
that
are
getting
involved
locally,
so
this
month
is
all
about
raising
funds,
food
and
awareness
to
help
combat
hunger
here
in
the
valley.
H
So
we
are
encouraging
people
to
get
involved
as
individuals
with
community
groups
and
with
their
businesses,
and
so
many
of
you
have
this
one
pager
here.
This
is
available
on
valiant
source
website,
as
well
with
some
local
ways
to
get
involved.
So
there's
also
going
to
be
a
weekly
column
in
the
Black
Mountain
news.
H
I
know
we
just
had
our
first
article
featured
last
week,
which
was
all
about
what
food
insecurity
looks
like
in
Western,
North
Carolina,
why
access
to
nourishing
foods
and
education
is
key
and
how
you
guys
can
be
a
part
of
the
solution
so
visit
our
neighbors
at
Native
kitchen
dynamite.
The
triple
later
trailhead,
Mele,
Max
and
more
go
orange
day
is
Thursday
September
13th.
H
So
we
encourage
all
of
you
to
send
pictures
of
you
in
your
orange
as
just
an
added
awareness
component
and
just
update
everybody
on
what
we've
been
up
to
family
and
soul,
Serbs,
roughly
700
families
and
individuals.
Each
week
we
operate
five
weekly
free,
fresh
produce
markets.
We
offer
nutrition
education
for
all
ages
and
we're
all
about
creating
and
making
healthy
food
accessible
for
everyone.
So
keep
an
eye
out
for
these
posters.
Many
businesses
are
doing
pledge
cards
for
us
and
please
reach
out
if
you're
interested
in
getting
involved.
H
I
Thank
You
mayor
I'm,
Kenan
Hyde.
We
live
at
my
14
South
open
eg
and
we
bought
our
house
in
2007
and
for
the
first
several
years
we
live
there.
We
had
no
water
in
our
basement.
We
were
told
when
we
bought
the
house.
There
ahead
meant
water
in
the
basement.
There's
been
a
hurricane
that
came
through
I,
just
say
that
word
today,
but
there
had
been
water
in
the
basement
previously,
but
before
tuna
crop
went
in,
we
had
had
water
twice
both
times.
I
We
were
able
to
mop
it
up
by
the
time
we
went
to
bed
that
night.
Our
basement
was
it's
well.
It
was
still
damp
that
it
was
basically
dry
and
we
could
go
to
sleep
not
worried.
After
a
tutor
cop
went
in
a
very
interesting
thing,
happened:
it
changed
from
water
to
mud
and
we've
had
two
floods,
one
last
October
and
then
one
in
May,
where
it
was
solid,
mud
I've
got
pictures
here.
If
he
bites
interested
in
seeing
them,
we
had
four
and
a
half
inches
of
mud
throughout
our
entire
basement.
I
I
We
had
several
people
that
came
to
our
living
room
and
talked
about
the
situation
with
Tudor
prompt
and
at
the
time
they
had
this
big,
very
impressive
plan
that
to
profit
parently
had
paid
a
engineering
firm
or
something
to
come
up
with,
and
it
included
a
42
inch
pipe
through
our
property.
We
were
very
cooperative,
we
were,
we
didn't
care
what
they
did.
We
had
to
stop
the
mud
coming
in
the
basement.
We
had
agreed
to
it
and
our
only
thing
was
when
it's
just
gonna
get
put
in.
I
They
said
we're
working
on
it,
we're
working
on
it,
we're
going
to
get
that
for
you.
We've
got
to
get
paid
Fox
to
sign,
and
once
we
got
all
the
signatures,
then
we
can
start
and
I
must
say
everybody
here
at
the
town
of
like
them.
Elvis
has
been
very
sympathetic,
cooperative,
Don
to
come
to
our
house
just
to
check
and
see
how
is
going,
but
the
problem
is
after
the
second
flood.
When
I
talk
to
people
here
at
the
table
on
this
tote,
it
stood
across
fault.
I
When
I
went
up
to
talk
to
wait
a
little
a
tutor
prompt.
He
told
me
two
things.
He
said
it's
like
men's
fault
and
he
said
it
was
an
act
of
God
I
thought.
Well,
why
is
God
mad
at
us?
You
know
it
used
to
just
be
water.
Why
did
God
turn
it
into
mud?
You
know
just
in
the
last
since
last
October,
but
we're
gonna
part
with
both.
It
sounds
insane.
It's
due
to
computer
craftiness,
it's
ham,
and
what
are
we
gonna
do
judo
prof.
I
told
me
they
are
not
going
to
do
this
plan,
even
though
the
way
understood
that
they
were
gonna
pay
for
it
to
go
through
the
personal
property,
and
then
the
city
would
pay
for
the
rest,
but
they
are
not
gonna
do
it.
They
said
there
are
too
many
liability
issues.
So
that's
our
situation.
I
have
two
questions.
When
is
this,
gonna
be
addressed?
What
can
be
done
about.
J
Good
evening,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
I
have
to
apologize
for
looking
like
I
look
and
coming
to
this
meeting,
but
I
was
asked
about
5:15
to
support
the
my
neighbor
Harshal
street,
who
had
just
talked
to
you.
Bush
I,
I'm
bill
Jenkins
and
I
have
a
house
at
five
miles
south
of
Kenichi
I've
had
it
for
about
12
years
now,
shortly
after
I
bought
the
house,
I
bought
the
adjacent
lot
at
5:11,
so
to
adichie
it
was
ruined
by
growing
up
and
underbrush.
J
So
you
really
couldn't
see
your
way
around
and
I
didn't
care,
because
I
bought
a
lot
primarily
to
keep
somebody
else
from
building
right.
Next
to
my
property
coming
to
find
out
when
I
get
back
in
the
back
of
my
property,
a
little
bit
I
find
at
the
back
from
the
adjoining
street.
There's
a
drain
pipe
about
this
big
around
that
feeds
from
Hiawassee.
Haven't
you
and
a
lot
of
water
come
off
a
Hiawassee
comes
through
that
pipe
it
dumps
onto
that
lot
and
then
comes
onto
my
lawn
in
previous
years.
J
Somebody
else
besides
me
had
put
a
diverter
in
to
keep
it
from
going
on
them
on
the
adjacent
lot,
but
what
it
did
was
create
a
river
right
across
my
lawn,
so
I'm
left
holding
a
lot
that
I
can't
use
and
couldn't
sell,
which
I
don't
want
to
do
anyhow,
because
I'm
I
want
to
stay
there,
but
I've
been
talking
about
to
the
city.
People
for
at
least
five
years,
probably
longer
Jamie's
been
out
there.
J
J
She
is
making
the
problem
much
much
more
important,
though
every
time
we
get
a
little
rain
like
we
had
a
half-page
in
the
middle
of
the
week,
we
get
an
orange
river
coming
to
cross
my
Lots
going
into
the
drain
pipe
eddo,
eddo,
Kenichi
and
then
on
to
the
golf
course
and
in
the
leaf
tunnel
hole.
We've
also
you've
all
seen
our
our
orange
leak.
Now
I
guess
we
could
I
guess
we
could
rename
it
just
rename
it
orange
lake
and
let
it
go.
But
I
don't
want
to
do
that.
K
The
water
comes
down
from
9th
Street
Monterey
Road,
4th,
Street
3rd
Street
and
then
is
diverted
all
of
us
diverted
to
our
next-door
neighbor's
house,
and
then
it
comes
to
us
and
then
it
goes
into
flat.
Creek
we
do
have
seen
lots
of
lots
of
silt
and
the
water
is
started
out.
I
guess
relatively
cloudy.
With
some
trash
we
found
some
needles
and
all
sorts
of
nasty
things
that
you
don't
want.
Obviously,
children
to
come
across
and
then
also
prophylactics
and
that
kind
of
thing
to
wash
down.
K
So
it's
not
not
clean
water
coming
into
our
yard
and
by
any
means
and
over
time
it's
just
become
red.
With
silk,
we've
started
an
initiative
and
we've
talked
to
Jessica
and
length
and
she's
done
some
some
she's.
Given
us
some
great
suggestions
and
we
look
forward
to
her
taking
on
that
project.
But
I
would
like
to
offer
maybe
a
forum
where
people
can
come
and
we
can
talk
to
Jessica
and
air
out
these
problems
before
it
becomes
a
big,
bigger
problem
and
becomes
almost
hysteria.
K
L
L
If
I
can
two
issues
I'd
like
to
talk
about
first,
this
seems
very
petty.
This
trash
management
or
garbage
management
I
have
probably
picked
up
neighbors
trash
in
the
woods
that
down
below
my
house
15
to
20
times,
maybe
more
in
the
years
that
I
have
lived
at
14
green
briar
bears
have
taken
up.
It
seems
a
permanent
residence
there's.
A
long
and
two
Cubs
yearlings
in
her
neighborhood
and
I
have
talked
to
my
neighbors,
sometimes
forthrightly,
that
doesn't
engender
good
neighborly
feeling,
but
I
have
grown
weary
of
picking
up
Pampers
and
miscellaneous
debris.
L
That
I
did
not
create
so
now,
I
simply
go
over
and
say:
would
you
mind
taking
care
of,
but
this
problem
is
not
just
my
problem.
I've
seen
it
I'll
pass
around
here's
a
picture.
I
took
don't
look
at
that
own
access.
Road
access
is
just
below
my
house
and
there's
trash
bags.
Walk
down
just
happened
to
go,
look
and
see
how
the
advent
plan
was
coming.
There
were
three
trash
bags
when
you
see
trash
bags
that
are
up
in
the
woods
not
at
the
can.
L
I
can
assure
you
those
are
bears,
and
that
is
a
seems
like
a
petty
issue,
but
it
causes
this
not
good
for
the
Bears.
It
causes
them
to
lose
their
fear
of
humans
and
it
is
a
littering
sanitation
issue.
Those
pictures
I'm
passing
around
I,
went
by
there
yesterday,
you
see,
if
had
been
picked
up.
There
were
three
bags,
so
it
took
them
two
of
them
gone.
L
One
of
them
is
still
exactly
where
it
was
on
August,
27
now,
I
know
the
town
has
some
ordinances
and
says
do
not
put
out
your
trash
until
the
morning
of
I
would
request
at
the
board
direct
the
Planning
Department
to
investigate
research
and
create
an
ordinance
that
requires
people
to
keep
trash
and
bear-proof
containers
or
indoors
until
trash
day.
This
end
to
put
teeth
with
it
so
that
they're
actually
enforceable
ordinances
that
have
penalty
that
go
with
them
item
2.
L
A
very
different
thing:
I
had
requested
sidewalks
along
an
access
road,
I
called
d-o-t
about
that
they're
going
to
improve
access
road
soon
and
person
I
spoke
to
said
no.
We
haven't
had
any
conversation
with
the
town
about
sidewalks
on
access,
I'm
disappointed
because
I
often
walk
down
to
access
and
do
a
little
dogleg
to
the
recreation
park.
So,
while
I'm
disappointed
I
think
his
name
is
Michael
Clark
with
d-o-t
said.
M
L
Would
look
at
at
least
trying
to
make
the
shoulder
walkable,
so
I
would
like
to
be
able
to
walk
continue
to
walk
from
my
little
residence,
my
neighborhood
down
to
the
recreational
park?
And
finally,
along
that
note
I
know
there
is
a
public
meeting
coming
up
according
to
mr.
Clark,
pretty
soon
about
the
I-40,
interchange
and
I
would
simply
ask.
N
You
think
I
talk
a
lot
mr.
mayor
board,
I'm
Bev,
Meharry
and
I.
Look
at
1:05
ends
up
her
Street
mr.
Trump
and
I
moved
in
the
same
day.
So
it'll
be
two
years
that
this
January
that
I
moved
there.
My
house
was
built
in
1935
has
a
dirt
basement
and
it
also
has
a
sump
pump
and
the
furnace
down
there
and
I
thought
it
very
strange
that
the
furnace
would
being
six
feet
up
on
the
wall
and
it's
this
way
where
our
normal
furnace
it's
this
way.
Well
now,
I
understand
why?
N
Because
of
the
water
coming
in,
that
sump
pump
goes
constantly
and
actually
tonight,
when
I
was
driving
here,
my
backyard
was
already
starting
to
flood,
and
my
neighbor,
who
lives
catty-corner
to
me,
has
just
put
in
a
French
drain
on
my
property
to
protect
his
rental
property.
That's
right
next
door
to
me
and
the
rental
property
hit
one
time
had
been
a
flower
shop,
so
it's
been
there
a
long
time
and
the
French
strain
is
doing
nothing.
N
The
the
drain
pipe
is
about
this
big
and
in
five
minutes
that
drain
pipe
is
filled
up
and
it's
going
in
my
backyard.
So
the
French
strain
that
he
put
in
is
doing
absolutely
no
good.
Now
he
wants
to
put
in
a
retaining
wall
and
I'm
not
going
to
go
there
with
that.
But
when
I
came
here
tonight,
my
property
is
on
a
pee
and
supper
and
Hamlet
Street
and
it's
perfectly
flat,
which
is
unusual
for
this
down.
N
But
it's
all
going
in
my
yard
and
when
I
came
to
night
South
cotton,
which
goes
down
to
Black
Creek.
The
water
was
already
coming
over
the
drainpipe
on
the
road
and
we
had
to
maybe
bad
rainstorms
from
4:30
until
5:30
tonight
lives
on
the
road
and
then
coming
down
Montreat
Road.
It
was
also
flooded,
so
it
just
seems
to
be
getting
progressively
worse.
As
I've
lived
here.
N
I
was
on
the
garden
tour
this
June
and
had
to
replant
a
whole
bunch
of
stuff
with
the
May
one
that
came
fortunately
about
a
million
smelly
max,
oh
hell,
but
it's
just
progressively
each
rain.
We
have
getting
worse,
so
I
would
appreciate
it.
If
we
got
bigger
drains,
I
don't
know,
but
something
has
to
be
done
because
the
house
has
been
there
since
the
1935.
It's
not
going
anywhere
I
hope,
nor
do
I
hope
my
furnace
is
going
anywhere,
but
that
sump
pump
works
continuously
doing
stuff
like
this.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
O
Alright
mayor
Collins
board,
thanks
for
having
me
up
tonight,
I'm
gonna,
give
you
a
brief
update
on
the
1718
fiscal
year
at
the
golf
course
Brett
Miller
Operations
Manager.
The
golf
course
for
those
of
you
who
don't
know
me
so
have
we
improved
Black
Mountain
this
year?
Well,
I've
talked
about
this
topic
in
the
past.
I
produced
control
gives
to
the
Kennedys
have
been
a
real
problem
for
us
over
the
years
they
tear
up
the
turf,
create
a
lot
of
waste.
O
It
makes
it
really
unhealthy
dirty
player
playing
environment
for
our
golfers,
so
we've
tried
a
lot
of
different
methods.
Over
the
years
we've
tried
drones,
we
tried
lasers,
we
tried
fireworks
and
tried
decoy
cavities
and
all
that
work
a
little
bit,
but
eventually
they
just
come
right
back.
So
if
you
can
see
the
the
dog
there
in
the
kayak,
that's
Calvin
Calvin
is
our
new
border.
Collie
we
got
Calvin
back
in
the
spring,
Calvin
was
trained
by
a
company
called
Flyway
geese
they're,
a
company
based
out
of
Charlotte.
We
got
him
in
his
year
old.
O
He
was
trained
from
the
time
that
he
was
8
weeks
old.
Until
we
got
him
and
Calvin's
been
awesome
for
the
golf
course,
there
were
times
last
year
when
we
had
160
yeess
on
the
course
at
one
time.
So
you
can
imagine
the
amount
of
waste
being
left
behind
now.
Most
of
the
time
there's
maybe
10
geese
on
the
course.
A
lot
of
times
we'll
go
to
three
days
and
not
see
a
single
one.
O
So
the
waste
is
completely
gone.
I
think
it's
helping
down
at
Lake
tomahawk.
It
might
not
be
completely
gone
down
there,
but
that's
what
we're
working
towards
one.
You
want
to
clean
that
area
up
as
well.
So
I
hope
that
that
people
can
appreciate.
What's
going
on
cabins,
not
out
there
to
harm
the
geese,
he
has
no
desire
to
catch
one
I,
don't
think
you
would
know
what
to
do
with
it
if
he
did
catch
one.
So,
just
if.
O
O
O
So
I
went
ahead
and
stripped
it
down
when
I
saw
that
we're
gonna
have
about
a
week
of
you
know
no
play
changed,
all
the
light.
Light
fixtures
and
the
switches
outlets
painted
everything
take
out
all
the
old
display
fixtures
and
built
new
ones
put
them
in
put
up
a
new
information
board
so
that
we
can
kind
of
keep
people
current.
O
That
was
just
in
disarray
from
years
of
abuse,
so
I
stripped
it
off
and
just
took
basically
took
white
pine
boards
and
trimmed
them
out
and
four
bar
top
epoxy
on
top
of
it,
and
it
created
a
really
nice
countertop
people
can
appreciate
coming
in
and
seeing
a
clean
place
that
we're.
You
know,
you
I
think
they
can
tell
we're
trying
to
improve
and
do
better
with.
So
that's
inside
how
we're
doing
outside
here
you
can
see
a
picture.
This
probably
gives
a
lot
into
what
some
of
you
folks
have
been
talking
about.
Tonight.
O
That's
water
runoff
on
our
18th
and
10th
fairway.
As
we
all
know,
we've
seen
incredible
amount
of
rain.
This
year
we
started
out
cold
with
a
you
know:
very
cold
January
of
March
moved
on
to
May
and
had
a
record-setting
year
all-time
record
setting
year.
Twenty
four
point:
seven
inches
of
rain
moisture
continued
through
July,
reaching
21
inches
above
our
yearly
average
rainfall
total.
O
So
you
know
when
you,
when
you're
getting
that
you're
getting
a
lot
of
strong
storms,
means
down
trees,
I
mean
standing
water
in
the
fairways
and
it
means
fighting
a
lot
of
disease
because
we
mow
the
grass
so
short
when
you
get
a
lot
of
stained.
Water
and
humidity
comes
up,
you
get
disease.
So
how
do
we
fight
these
challenges?
Well,
we
decided
that
we
wanted
to
aerate
early
this
year,
so
aerated
early
March
normally
wait
till
April,
but
because
we
were
falling
behind,
we
wanted
to
try
to
be
in
our
best
shape.
O
You
know
as
a
start
of
April,
so
to
do
that
we
have
to
expose
the
roots
in
the
greens,
meaning
we
arrive,
pull
out
a
plug
and
that
exposes
the
roots.
What
you
have
cold,
you
know
cold
weather,
getting
on
those
roots.
It'll
kill
the
turf
so
this
year,
instead
of
putting
52
tons
of
top
dressing
down,
we
put
down
78
tons
of
top
dressing
and
it
created
an
extra
inch
layer
on
top
of
the
green
surface.
By
doing
that,
you
actually
whether
this
is
the
plant
or
not.
O
It
actually
created
a
much
thinner,
thatch
layer,
which
is
the
top
layer
of
the
turf,
and
if
the
greens
have
held
up
so
much
better
this
year
and
I
know
some
of
the
board
members
play
golf
they've
been
in
great
shape
all
year.
Long
and
I
think
that
it's
really
helping
you
know
drive
around
when
we
do
have
good
weather
to
play,
having
drainage
where
it's
feasible
right
now,
we
can't
do
a
lot
of
drainage
work
with
this
haul.
O
We're
going
to
be
working
on
that
when
play
slows
down
the
ground
firms
up
a
little
bit,
and
hopefully
we
get
some
dry
weather
where
we
can,
we
can
actually
do
that.
We
also
had
to
increase
our
spraying
cycle
to
let
the
disease
normally
spray
every
six
weeks,
but
we've
had
to
switch
that
to
about
every
two
to
three
weeks
because
of
things
like
Pythium
and
wet
weather
will
and
Browns
a
dollar
spot
brown
patch.
O
O
Last
year
we
had
a
really
mild
winter
and
we
got
pretty
good
revenue
there
board
you've
all
got
a
sheet
that
you
can
follow
along
with
it
that
compares
each
one
of
these
sections,
so
we
were
down
in
all
our
main
categories
this
year
and
you
know
mainly
because
we
had
so
many
days
of
being
closed.
This
is
cold
weather,
its
and
snow,
which
we
didn't
have
the
year
before.
So
we
needed
to
improve
bounce
back
a
little
bit
here
in
April,
and
we
did
you
know
we
got
the
golf
course
looking
good.
O
We
were
up
in
every
single
category
except
for
Pro
Shop,
so
where
we
stayed
pretty
much
equal
of
what
we
did
the
year
before
I
would
attribute
some
of
that
to
the
fact
that
we
did
go
up
on
the
rates
a
little
bit.
We
voted
on
that
back
last
last
spring
I
think
that's
helped
we're
trying
to
get
more
in
line
with
where
our
competitors
are
doing,
but
also
the
courses
and
good
shapes
that
makes
people
want
to
come
out
and
employ
May
June
July
we
kept
up.
Despite
unbelievable
rainfall
totals
greens.
O
You
know,
I.
Think
these
this
chart
would
look
completely
different
before
yeah.
It
has
six
days
that
we
were
closed
or
choosing
six
Saturdays
that
very
close
from
my
month's
May
through
July.
We
averaged
about
$3,000
every
Saturday
and
we
lost
six
of
those.
That's
time
you
can't
make
up,
you
don't
get
an
extra
Saturday
somewhere,
so
you
know
I
think
we
did
pretty
well
considering
what
we've
what
we've
been
through
annual
cash
play
versus
daily
pass
play.
Now.
O
We've
got
77
Annual
Pass
holders
we're
up
to
962
per
pass
holders
from
860
this
householder
last
year.
That's
because
we
did
do
a
increase
in
our
rates.
The
members
that
we
lost
a
lot
of
them
switched
over
to
the
new
players
pass.
We
introduced
this
year
and
then
a
lot
of
senior
players
who
just
switched
to
our
senior
daily
right.
It's
very
competitive
and
I
just
think
that's
more
feasible
for
them.
O
O
They
kept
playing
during
the
prime
time,
which
is
811
Monday
through
Friday
and
they're,
just
paying
$5
trophy
they've
moved
to
11
o'clock,
so
they
don't
have
to
pay
the
$5
trophy
and
that's
opened
up
more
tee
times
for
daily
P
play
or
they're
paying
a
nine-hole
cart
through
they're,
actually
riding
nine
holes
instead
of
walking
all
18,
which
is
an
extra
nine
dollars
per
player
revenue
that
we
that
we
see
that
we
weren't
given
before
so
daily
play.
Obviously,
towns
growing
we're
seeing
a
lot
of
new
faces
that
we've
never
seen
before
each
day.
O
Somebody
comes
in
that's
moved
to
town
that
I've
never
seen
play
golf
there
before
that's
good.
More
players
will
hopefully
equate
to
more
revenue.
I
mean
our
benefit.
Tournaments
have
grown
this
year.
We
had
two
really
really
big
tournaments.
We
did
a
brick
knowledge,
er
tournament,
the
on
tree
coach
at
124
players.
O
In
that
event,
that's
the
biggest
event
we've
had
in
ten
years,
and
we
did
his
new
City
Christian
school
with
master
Bruce
go
forth,
puts
on
it
was
122
players,
so
we
haven't
seen
in
Vince
that
size
in
a
long
time,
I
hope
that's
a
sign,
but
things
are
improving
as
far
as
that
goes
and
then
lastly,
I
do
want
to
give
a
tap-in
girl
promotion.
Terri
Frizzell
runs,
are
tapping
grill
at
the
golf
course
he's
got
a
great
brisket
I
got
this
burger.
It's
called
the
big
out
burger.
O
P
Did
you
mention
that
Calvin
is
on
vacation?
That's
why
Calvin's
not
here
tonight
he's
with
his
family
that
care
taking
him
they're
going
across
country,
so
he's
traveling
across
country
with
them
for
a
couple
weeks,
he'll
be
back!
So
if
you
see
a
few
extra
geese,
don't
worry,
he
will
be
happy
to
see
them
when
he
gets
back.
P
F
O
Well,
so,
between
the
holes,
three
four
and
five
we've
got
a
stream
bed
that
was
really
eroding.
It
was
breaking
off
sending
water
or
silt
down
the
lake
tomahawk,
and
it
was
just
grating
a
lot
of
problems.
So
engineering
company
came
in
last
year.
I
guess
last
was
that
spring
head
in
all
the
creek
banks
put
it
in
a
buffer
on
either
side
and
that's
why
you
see
the
the
creek
banks
aren't
maintained
like
they
were.
The
point
of
that
is
to
keep
the
vegetation
on
the
banks
so
that
they
stay
stabilized.
O
If
you
spray
everything
out,
we'd
eat
it
down.
That's
what
happened
before
the
creek
banks
destabilize
when
you're
sending
silt
downstream.
So
that's
what
we're
trying
to
avoid
the
air
and
that
that
is
going
to
happen
on
all
the
legs
at
the
golf
course,
I
think
the
next
section
is
going
to
be
from
the
18th
tee
box
to
the
18th
green.
That's
another
is
that.
Does
that
sound
all
right,
yeah,
so
I,
don't
know
exactly.
A
Q
Q
So
one
thing
I
would
like
to
know
more
about
are
ways
to
maybe
try
to
keep
some
of
the
water
on
my
property
things
like
rain
gardens
or
something
like
that.
If
there
could
be
an
information
session
for
people
who
are
interested
in
what
are
ways
that
you
can
safely
capture
water
and
not
dump
it
out
onto
the
roads,
I
think
that
would
be
really
helpful.
I
have
no
idea
if
I
can
afford
it,
but
at
least
I
would
feel
better
having
that
as
a
consideration.
Thank
you.
Thank.
R
I,
don't
with
the
adoption
of
minutes.
From
the
past
several
weeks
we
had
various
meetings.
I
was
listed.
There
was
an
August
ninth
closed
session
in
August
night
agenda
session
in
August
13th
closed
the
session,
the
August
13th
regular
monthly
session
August
17th
closed
session,
the
August
9th
closed
session,
the
August
23rd
closed
session,
the
August
24th
closed
session
and
the
August
30th
closed
session.
R
There's
a
budget
amendment
will
transfer
130
thousand
five
hundred
and
thirty
dollars
from
various
funds.
The
general
fund
and
appropriated
balance
to
end
the
fiscal
year
on
an
even
number
number
see.
That's
a
budget
amendment
for
several
matters,
repairs
that
we
had
to
do
or
replacement
of
equipment.
The
Lakeview
Air
Conditioning
needed
upgraded,
the
one
there
was
not
adequate
with
you
received
complaints
from
people
who
rented
it
for
like
weddings
or
other
things,
and
then
some
of
the
folks
who
were
doing
activities
there.
So
we
needed
to
buy
one
new.
R
You
know
for
their
Gray
Eagle
needed
for
units
replaced.
As
you
know,
that's
a
big
facility
and
apparently
all
of
those
units
were
antiquated
and
it's
kind
of
thing.
He
probably
could
not
even
find
parts
to
to
try
to
repair
anything.
They
were
sold.
Additionally,
as
part
of
that
budget
amendment
we're
having
to
do
repairs
to
Lakeview
both
upstairs
and
downstairs.
We
knew
there
was
substantial
water
damage
to
the
floor
and
the
basement
part
of
it.
There
was
also
some
damage
that
we
could
see
in
the
kitchen
as
we
got
into
the
kitchen.
R
R
That's
the
type
of
thing
would
give
you
information
about
some
traffic
slowdown
and
occurrence
ahead
as
you're
driving
down
the
interstate
McDowell
County
has
already
adopted
a
resolution
of
support
and
the
Ltd
would
ask
that
we
also
do
the
same
so
that
would
be
resolution.
18
8
e
would
be
a
call
for
a
public
hearing
to
close
a
platted
portion
of
Wolf
Creek
Drive,
and
that
would
be
asking
for
a
public
hearing
had
a
with
Monday
October,
8,
2000
18
meeting
or
soon
thereafter
as
possible
in
the
board
room
here
at
Town.
R
Hall
F
would
be
a
call
for
public
hearing
for
text,
amendments
to
replace
privilege,
license
and
sexiest
section
with
business
registration.
Basically,
the
state
of
North
Carolina
did
away
with
the
old
what
was
known
as
a
privileged
license,
and
basically
they
were
being
replaced
with
business
license,
so
we're
just
trying
to
codify
our
statute
with
what's
been
the
common
practice
and
I
think
it's
to
fall
falling
under
fees
here
for
just
a
codified,
as
as
what
is
a
business
registration
and
the
idea
there.
R
You
know
what
business
are
in
town,
you
can
regulate
a
little
bit
and
see
you
know
who's
doing
business
in
your
town
or
their
rep
or
whatever.
So,
if
somebody
comes
in
outside
wants
to
set
up
a
business,
they
have
to
make
application
and
get
a
license
with
regard
to
gee.
That's
and
that's
also,
a
public
hearing
for
October
to
date
to
be
held
in
the
G
is
a
call
for
public
hearing
for
text
amendments
trying
to
find
the
difference
between
vacant
lot
and
undeveloped.
Lot.
R
Again,
that's
a
call
for
public
hearing
on
October
2
2018
in
all
of
these,
or
some
of
these
will
go
in
front
of
the
Planning
Commission
for
input.
Jessica
has
a
regular
scheduled
video
with
them
sometime
between
now
and
October
8.
So
hopefully
that
will
have
input
and
we'll
come
back
with
language
if,
for
some
reason
they
don't
finish
their
work
on
these
and
it
would
be
continued
to
the
following
month.
M
S
S
The
difference
that
that
would
make
is
that
you
have
so
many
more
elections,
things
that
you
vote
for
and
like
this
upcoming
year,
so
this
if
this
were
to
be
enacted,
approved
and
then
taken
to
the
state
legislature
to
make
it
a
law,
because
Asheville
was
required
was
that
it
was
legislated
that
Asheville's
voting
districts
be
changed
and
that
their
elections
be
moved
into
the
even
number
years.
Now
there
are
some
election
expenses
that
are
shared
among
municipalities
and
I'd.
S
So
you
have
an
incredible
amount
that
people
have
to
tend
to
focus
on
and
even
consider,
I
think
that
people
can
make
an
incredible
difference
at
the
local
level
voting
and
in
otherwise
that
they
can't
make
quite
as
much
on
a
much
higher
level
state
or
national.
So
these
elections
are
really
important.
S
Local
level
things
impact
people
in
their
day-to-day
lives.
Much
more
so
so.
I
am
asking
that
the
town
not
consider
switching
to
the
even
number
years,
letting
the
attention
to
town
matters
to
get
the
priority
that
they
need
by
keeping
those
elections
on
the
odd
number
of
years,
and
we
also
have
had
an
influx
of
such
people.
The
numbers
are
really
changing
and
who
can
vote?
We
already
have
231
new
registrations
since
from
July
24th
from
July
of
for
march
of
twenty
six
2017
to
July
of
2018.
F
R
Our
current
water
system.
We
produce
half
a
million
gallons
a
day
from
the
wells
there
and
had
been
dug
and
used
for
many
years
here
in
town
and
from
the
city
of
Asheville,
we
reserve
two
hundred
thousand
gallons
a
day
and
the
way
the
city
of
Asheville
works.
They
have
a
capacity
of
close
to
40
million
I,
think
it
is,
they
will
sell
you
water,
but
in
order
for
them
to
sell
tea,
you
have
to
first
reserve
it.
R
So
they
charge
you
a
set
amount
to
reserve,
a
hundred
thousand
gallons
or
two
hundred
thousand
whatever
it
would
be,
and
in
our
case
we
we
reserve
two
hundred
thousand
gallons
and
pay
them
a
monthly
fee.
Three
thousand
six
hundred
eighty
dollars.
They
also
have
what
they
call
a
capital
improvement
fund.
It
doesn't
matter
how
much
you
you
reserve.
They
charge
you
a
monthly
fee
of
eleven
hundred
and
sixty-five
dollars.
Then
they
charge
you
according
to
how
much
you
use
so
much
per
gallon.
If
you
use
the
whole
200
thousand
gallons,
it
would
be.
R
Ninety
six
hundred
dollars
a
month
so
basically,
if
you
reserve
and
use
two
hundred
thousand
gallons
of
water
per
day,
the
total
monthly
fee
for
that
would
be
fourteen
thousand
four
hundred
and
forty-five
dollars.
Now,
we've
averaged
over
the
last
12
months,
one
hundred
fifty
three
gallons,
the
high
has
been
one
hundred
ninety
four,
so
we're
trying
to
nail
down
what
our
average
would
be.
We
don't
know
if
there's
some,
we
had
a
leak
here
or
there,
but
sometimes
you
have
leaks
in
a
system
you
catch
sooner
rather
than
later.
R
Sometimes
they
leak
a
little
more,
but
whether
we've
had
new
customers
come
in
we're.
Looking
at
all
of
that,
and
the
big
thing
going
forward
is
we
need
to
plan
for
the
things
that
are
coming
and
then
two
big
events
are
coming.
One
is
that
the
city
of
Asheville
is
going
to
turn
over
600
customers
to
us.
R
The
plan
has
been
three
hundred
at
a
time
and
those
customers
live
inside
the
city
limits
of
Black
Mountain
and
they
will
turn
over
the
water
pipes
if
you
will,
as
well
as
the
customers
to
be
Black,
Mountain
customers
and
what
we
have
to
do
to
get
ready
for
that
or
two
things
one.
We
are
in
the
process
of
having
constructed
a
750
thousand
gallon
per
day
pump.
The
bids
are
going
out
for
it,
I
think
anytime.
Now
we
got
to
granted
to
help
us
with
that,
and
we
have
to
get
that
online.
F
R
Again,
there's,
as
I
said,
it
was
two
parts
of
this
one's
the
Asheville
water
customers
and
each
300
customers.
We
estimate
will
use
approximately
thirty,
seven
thousand
five
hundred
gallons
a
day,
so
phase
one
of
three
hundred
second
phase,
so
a
total
of
75
thousand
gallons
a
day
that
we're
going
to
need
to
service
those
customers.
The
bottom
project
has
indicated
to
us:
initially
they
will
use
twenty
five
thousand
gallons
a
day
and
may
increase
as
they
go
on,
but
that's
what
we're
working
with
now.
R
So
basically,
those
two
sets
of
customers
and
the
new
plant
will
require
a
hundred
thousand
gallons
a
day.
So
one
we
need
to
be
able
to
pump
that
water,
hence
the
grant
that
we
refer
to
in
a
pump
we're
building.
And,
secondly,
we
need
to
plan
going
forward
buying
the
right
to
buy
water
from
Asheville
number
one,
the
hundred
thousand
gallons
and
number
two
looking
forward.
What
type
of
expansion
and
additional
war
customers
we
will.
We
will
get
in
the
future,
especially
if
a
bottom
comes.
R
It's
pretty
certain
that
other
businesses
probably
will
come,
build
it.
They
will
come
and
then,
whatever
other
development.
We
have
on
that
side
of
town,
especially
where
you
have
some
areas
that
folks
may
look
at
building.
So
that's
the
idea
of
trying
to
figure
out
how
much
water
we
need
and
then
how
much
we
should
reserve
for
going
forward.
F
R
We
rob
always
is
two
things.
Of
course:
we've
got
an
agreement
in
principle
with
Asheville
is
just
a
question
of
when
we
want
to
try
to
expand
it
and
then,
more
importantly,
looking
at
the
time
if,
when
the
pump
comes
on,
which
will
trigger
the
600
customers
and
also
when
the
plant
is
going
to
be
finished,
so
they're
ready
to
go
online,
so
we're
watching
those
those
dates
also
and.
F
I
think,
but
on
the
bottom
project,
the
time
frame
is
still
late,
not
late
2019,
that's
still
what
they're
looking
at
is
completing
they
they
meet
and
look
and
talk
with
all
the
all
the
different
people
involved,
primarily
they're,
developing
folks,
but
they've
got
you
know
with
with
that.
They
have
to
get
a
wet
water
sort
of
like
a
national
wet
water
permit,
because
there's
a
little
depth
is
involved,
and
that
takes
some
time.
Isn't
it'll
get
done.
It's
not
that
not
that
it's
II
doubt
that
it
will
happen,
but
it
takes
some
time.
F
Then
our
engineer
is
just
bargain
will
start
the
water
probably
start
bids
soon,
probably
next
month,
but
that
his
his
portion
that
what
when
I
said
he's
not
just
his
portion,
but
the
water
and
sewer
is
about
a
year.
So
it's
kind
of
completing
soon
and
has
already
been
mentioned.
The
access
road
is
do
T
is
what
the
contract
and
they're
working
on
that
they
won't
do,
the
final,
paving
and
so
forth
until
the
construction
is
done,
but
but
the
curbing
and
everything
else
will
this
is
going
in.
A
F
Think
and
again,
I
want
to
ask
for
that
to
be
put
on
the
agenda
so
that
we
can
communicate
with
our
part
of
the
part
of
the
thought
process
is
if
Weaverville
and
would
fin
and
Biltmore
Forest
if
they're,
if
it's
their
intention
to
move,
we
do
want
to
know
about
that
to
make
the
same
decision
as
Marilyn
mentioned
earlier
in
her
this.
The
whole
thing
is
instigated
because
the
city
of
Asheville
has
been
moved.
F
That's
already
happened
our
cost
according
to
treat
a
Parker
in
a
recent
communication
with
the
other
municipalities
in
town,
which
was
just
polling
really
to
see
where
they
were
in
the
process.
What
their
thoughts
were
our
cost
is
about
twelve
thousand
dollars,
for
you
know
Parker
for
the
election
that
we
would
bear.
F
So
that's
our
thought.
It's
just
it's
it's
frankly,
it's
a
it's
just
a
cost
that,
arguably
you
know
it's
a
cost.
We
could
defer.
So
that's
part
of
the
process.
That's
really
the
the
thought
behind
it.
We
want
to
see
what
the
other
municipalities
are
doing.
Biltmore
Forest
has
indicated
that
they
are
positively
doing
that,
and
the
process
is
that
we
passed
a
resolution
and
it
goes
to
the
General
Assembly
senator
de
band
on
is
has
expressed
a
great
deal
of
interest
in
ER,
supporting
that,
as
has
representative
John
Avery.
F
T
I
think
this
issue
needs
much
greater
public
input
before
we're
ready
to,
but
I,
don't
think
Maryland.
You
know,
since
this
has
come
up.
I've
spent
a
fair
number
of
hours,
thinking
about
the
pros
and
cons
of
both
these
even
in
audio
elections
and
certainly
Marilyn.
You
expressed
that
very
well,
but
I'll.
Tell
you
the
my
biggest
issue
with
it
at
this
point.
Is
that
I,
don't
I,
don't
feel
that
this
board
should
act
without
having
significant
public
comment?
T
T
Certainly
I
think
that's
a
decision.
Let's.
Let
should
be
left
to
the
voters
hands
not
to
a
boards
hands
to
extend
its
terms
one
year.
So
these
are
things
that
we
need
to
think
about.
Certainly,
there's
a
cost
argument
to
it,
but
regardless
we
have
to
have
elections,
that's
what
our
our
democracy,
our
Republic,
is
founded
on.
These
having
these
elections
so
I'm
a
much
more
in
favor
of
us
having
greater
dialogue
on
this
and
not
acting
quickly.
F
What
has
what
we
have
found
out
is
the
water
line,
the
walk
back
to
the
bronze
comment
about
the
water
agreement.
Then
we
already
have
with
the
city
of
Asheville
to
that
they'll
turn
over
these
600
customers
to
the
town
of
Black
Mountain.
Some
of
those
600
customers
live
on
Blue
Ridge
assembly
Road.
That
goes
up
toward
the
assembly
and
it
has
come
to
the
town's
attention
and
Jamie's
been
out
there
a
good
bit.
It
has
come
to
the
town's
attention
and
the
city
of
Asheville
is
attention
as
well.
F
The
line
is
is
not
adequate
and
it's
currently
a
city
of
Asheville
on,
but
it's
currently
scheduled
to
be
turned
over
to
the
town
of
Black.
Mountain
I
think
it's
in
the
first
wave
of
turnovers
yeah.
So
so
it's
going
to
be
turned
over
soon,
but
the
line
is
at
and
we
could
make
the
line
more
adequate
like
by
bringing
it
down
and
tapping
in
to
one
of
our
existing
lines.
It's
a
10
inch
line
on
Blue
Ridge
Road,
but
it's
not
our
line,
so
that
presents
a
problem
in
doing
that.
F
So
what
what
I'm
interested
in
is
is
seeing.
If
we
can
accelerate
the
transitional
turnover
of
that
line,
Jamie
could
speak
to
it,
but
I
don't
know
that
we
need
to
it's
just
it's.
If
if
the
fire
occurred,
there's
there's
the
city
of
Asheville
says:
there's
sufficient
water
for
for
fire
protection,
but
they
also
said
it
would
suck
all
the
water
out
of
everybody's
house,
which
is
not
a
good
thing.
So
it's
a
it's
a
fairly.
F
You
know
significant
situation
and
so
that
that's
what
that's,
what
I
know
about
that
and
that's
what
we're
trying
to
pursue
is
having
that
line
turned
over
at
amounts
to
a
few
roughly
a
year
earlier
than
it
would
be
otherwise,
so
I
think
it
would
if
we
could
get
their
attention
I
think
we
could
make
that
happen,
but
that's
kind
of
where
we
always
trying
to
get
their
attention.
You
have
anything
to
add
to
that
wrong
when.
M
You
initially
brought
this
up
before
it
was
any
direction.
Take
action
I've
reached
out
to
Kelly
Whitlock.
The
attorney
I
was
dealing
with
on
that.
Well,
whether
or
not
that
can
be
chopped
out
in
a
dress
for
the
city,
I
got
an
email
back
from
her
said
she
was
on
a
two-week
vacation.
She
had
a
new
last
name,
so
she
should
be
back
this
week.
Perhaps
we
can
move
forward
the
sports
that
correct
Thanks
just.
A
Another
addition
to
that
what
Larry
is
talking
about
is,
if
we
tap
into
our
ten
inch
line
on
Blue
Ridge
Road,
that
ups,
the
pressure
for
the
fire
hydrants
for
the
citizens
and
and
that's
that's
done
by
just
making
a
little
few
joint
from
the
our
10
inch
to
their
six
inch
and
then,
if
they,
which
they're
playing
only
given
us
already
like
Larry,
said
so.
It's
a
little
simple
maneuver,
which
raises
the
the
pressures
significantly.
A
F
A
R
We're
required
to
have
somebody
with
the
proper
license
to
monitor
our
water
to
file
reports
to
treat
it
when,
when
necessary,
Charlie
has
worked
for
the
town
for
many
years.
However,
he
is
going
out
and
has
his
own
business.
That's
going
to
be
working
and
is
no
longer
working
for
the
town
as
of
last
week,
and
he
has
made
a
proposal
to
the
town
and
he
and
I've
negotiated
it,
and
he
will
continue
to
do
all
the
things
that
the
town
needs
on
a
contract
basis.
R
As
opposed
to
be
a
salaried
employee
with
benefits,
he
will
draw
a
monthly
stipend
and
we'll
monitor
our
skater
24
hours
a
day,
seven
days
a
week
because
he's
done
while
he
was
working
for
us,
they
will
additionally
file
all
the
reports.
We
need
do
all
the
treatments
we
need
and
so
on
and
so
forth,
some
of
the
$3,000
per
month
and.
R
We've
seen
no
benefits
as
far
as
pointers
abruptly
and
passed.
These
workforce
as
I
said,
worked
overtime
at
times.
I
think
this
would
benefit
to
the
town.
At
this
point.
Those
are
the
expense
because
we
have
to
have
someone
who
can
be
fine,
that
you
don't
have
to
look
who
was
on
undoing
I.
Think
Jamie's
got
a
plan
long
term
to
get
some
money.
R
You
know
on
staff
who
can
take
over
that
role,
but
right
now,
I
think
this
is
in
the
best
interest
of
town,
and
it
asks
the
town
to
adopt
this
agreement
with
gross
enterprises,
industrial
services
Charlie
gross
and
make
it
retroactive
to
last
Thursday.
Last
Wednesday
was
his
last
day
as
a
town,
employee.
T
A
R
So,
hopefully
those
dates
will
hold
and
we'll
be
back
in
there.
In
short
order.
In
the
interim,
we
had
moved
most
of
our
activities
to
Carver
the
daily
feeding
of
the
elderly.
Folks,
we
move
that
over
into
the
new
building
which
I'll
segue
into
that
the
new
building,
the
former
foam
and
fabric
building
and
we're
still
waiting
for
the
some
suggestion
that
will
grab
us
that
we
need
to
name
that
building.
R
We
are
have
moved
in
there
a
lot
of
our
stuff,
the
last
couple
of
weeks,
Jamie
and
then
Tasha
and
those
folks
now
have
their
offices
up
and
running.
Tasha
moved
out
of
this
building.
So
if
you
now
want
anything
from
from
maintenance,
you
need
to
go
over
and
find
her
in
the
new
building
the
rec
department
is
moving,
has
moved
into
the
new
building.
Has
their
administrative
offices
there,
which
will
segue
into
we
have
some
new
rec
employees
that
are
here
tonight,
I'd
like
to
introduce
them?
If
I
could.
R
First,
our
new
director
is
Josh.
Henderson
Josh
human
minds
stand
up
as
the
city's
our
new
director.
He
comes
to
us
from
the
parks
and
recs
department
and
gastonia,
where
he's
worked
for
many
years
and
as
a
native
of
Gastonia
and
I
was
actually
interviewing
for
one
of
the
other
positions
when
I
met
Josh,
and
he
impressed
me
so
much
that
I
said
we're
going
to
open
up
the
director
position
and
he
hired
him
for
that
job.
He's
a
very
impressive
young
man.
R
Very
sharp
got
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
good
ideas
and
we're
glad
to
have
you
with
us
Josh.
Thank
you.
Next
melinda
polite
ease
melinda
comes
to
us
from
the
Asheville
Parks
and
Rec,
where
she
was
for
the
last
five
years
has
worked
with
seniors
and
she
will
she
is
now
she
started
this
week.
Josh
started
last
week.
She
will
be
the
supervisor
of
the
Senior
Center
over
at
Lakeview.
R
With
regard
to
a
lot
of
our
outdoor
activities,
I
think
he's
involved
with
flag
football.
Now
get
that
up
and
going,
and
then
we
have
a
false
soccer
program
and
he's
been
with
us.
A
couple
weeks,
although
the
first
week
or
so
is
he
was
here
he
got
the
job
of
helping
Jamie
his
folks
move,
desk
and
other
heavy
items.
So
we
we
appreciate
him
being
here
with
us
and
look
forward
to
a
lot
of
hard
work
for
him.
Thank
you
and
we
have.
We
have
another
position
in
the
rec
department.
R
We've
been
handing
that
and
asking
them
to
tell
their
neighbors.
So
we
we
think
we'll
have
pretty
good
coverage
of
the
populace,
but
if
you
forgot
you
go
out
and
put
your
garbage
out
and
choose
to
your
Wednesday
and
then
get
picked
up.
Hopefully
starting
October.
1St
is
because
you
put
it
out
on
the
wrong
day,
not
because
it
was
a
truck
break
down.
So
that's
what
I
have.
A
U
I
had
three
things:
first,
someone
before
calm
area
I
wanted
to
ask
this
board
to
issue
a
happy
birthday.
Although
she
and
her
business
or
not
Black
Mountain,
proper
city
limits,
they
are
out
on
highway,
70,
Sadie,
berries,
miss
berries,
turned
100
years
old
and
miss
berry
is
still
in
business.
She
still
goes
to
office
every
day.
She
works
five
days
a
week,
a
hundred
years
old
and
I.
Think
that's
marvelous
and
I.
Think
anybody
who
goes
by
there
need
to
go
by
there
and
see
Erin
tell
a
happy
birthday.
U
Second
thing:
I
like
that
is,
is
that
we've
had
a
lot
of
turnover
in
Parks
and
Rec
we've
had.
Basically,
the
entire
department
is
being
rebuilt,
redone
and
I
think
it
behooves
everyone
in
this
town
to
give
these
folks
to
support
and
the
confidence
that
they
need
to
make
sure
that
they
get
their
job
done,
and
we
we
extend
behind
in
100
percent.
U
Since
things
have
happened
in
that
department,
we
have
maybe
missed
out
on
one
or
two
programs
or
any
type
services
that
that
program
has
offered
I.
Think
that's
amazing
for
what
has
happened
in
that
department.
So
for
Josh
and
Jerrod
and
I'm
sorry
I
forgot
her
name.
Just
a
quick
run.
Melinda
I
heard
you
an
Alabama
native
and
I
am
too
good,
but
I
think
these
folks
need
all
the
encouragement
and
support
that
we
can
give
them
and,
like
I,
told
Josh
before
this
meeting,
if
I
can
help
out
in
any
way.
U
V
U
You,
but
anyway
Mary's
here,
if
you
get
off
at
exit
64
on
I-40,
if
you're
looking
straight
ahead
of
you,
see
that
great
sign
that
was
marrying
her
folks
did
15
20
years
ago,
but
when
I
drove
back
the
other
day,
I
made
a
mention
to
my
wife
about
that
sign
is
showing
a
lot
wear
and
tear
I.
Think
that
sense,
probably
giving
his
life
for
the
time
or
black
for
the
town
of
Black
Mountain
and
this
time
for
it
to
move
on
to
greener
pastures.
U
V
The
sign
down
by
I-40
is
not
a
sandblasted
sign,
it's
a
flat
sign
and
it
has
been
there
for
over
15
years
and
I
tell
people
if
you
bought
a
brand
new
car
and
you've
set
it
out
beside
the
road
for
15
years,
and
you
say
gosh,
you
know
the
paint's
not
holding
up
very
well.
That
sign
has
been
out
there
in
summer
and
winter
in
rain
and
snow,
and
it
has.
It
has
done
its
job
for
15
years
or
more
so.
V
V
S
V
R
R
Matthews
and
I
just
forgot
it,
but
when
I
got
here
in
the
middle
of
June,
one
of
the
first
people
I
met
was
Jamie
and
he
impressed
me
with
his
work
ethic
and
the
department
that
he
has
under
him
and
what
a
group
of
hard-working
individuals
they
are.
So
I
named
him,
the
interim
director
of
the
rec
department
and
for
the
last
over
two
and
a
half
months
that
he
has
occupied
that
position.
R
In
addition
to
supervising
the
15
or
so
employees
of
the
maintenance
department,
all
the
duties
they
do
on
any
given
day,
and
he
deserves
to
be
commended
for
hard
work.
He's
done
and
all
the
extra
time
he's
put
in
with
that
and
helped
hold
that
program
together
and
appreciate
you,
Jamie
and
and
I
hope.
The
citizens
of
this
town
understand
what
a
jewel
you
are
in
terms
of
how
much
you
get
done
for
them
on
a
daily
basis.
U
U
A
A
The
only
other
thing
that
that
I've
got
right,
quick,
please
Ronnie
stole
the
Thunder
I
wanted
to
talk
about
Jamie
and
his
his
commitment
to
the
last
few
months.
It's
been
incredible,
he's
been
having
to
run
his
job
plus
work
extra
hours
to
do
the
try
to
keep
the
the
strings
connected
in
the
Recreation
Department
and
it's
been
difficult,
I
know
but
Jamie
on
behalf
of
the
board.
We
appreciate
it
buddy,
thanks
for
being
somebody
with
the
count
on
best
to
take
on
this
this
this
extra
and
you
did
it
and
you
did
it
well.
