New Polk DSS building behind scheduleMove-in date now planned for Octoberby Leah Justice

Construction on Polk Coun-ty’s new department of social services (DSS) building is about

a month behind schedule, ac-cording to Polk County Manager Ryan Whitson.

Whitson said there were some issues getting the roofers to com-plete the work, which caused a stop work order to be issued for

work inside the building. The roof was almost completed as of last week.

The new schedule is for the building to be completed the

Lake Adger reclassification goes to state after Henderson County gives no support Citizen group urges proactive measures by Samantha Hurst

Polk County Manager Ryan Whitson said he has confirmation that Henderson County has no interest in giving its approval for the reclassification of the Lake

Adger watershed. Whitson said he must now

notify the state and turn over ef-forts to move the classification of the watershed from Class C (for recreational use) to a Class III, which would allow Lake Adger to be used for drinking water.

“It’s definitely not easier to

go about it this way,” Whitson said. “If Henderson County had agreed to it I think it would have happened much faster…. Now I think it will be a much longer, drawn out process.”

Letter to the Editor

Response to annexation story

To the Editor: I have never before respond-

ed to misrepresentation of my comments in the Tryon Daily Bulletin and the reporting in the July 27 issue of TDB is certainly not among the more damaging.

I’m just feeling particu-larly tired of having words a t t r ibuted to me tha t a re most definitely not my own. In the above-mentioned article, Leah Justice reported on the request by Giardini Trattoria’s owners for annexation of their 5-acre property to permit in-creased revenue through sales of wine and beer on their premises.

Leah wrote, “But Columbus resident Kathleen Kent said she didn’t hear any of the people in support [of the annexation] say where they live.”

Quite the contrary, as the nine articulate Giardini patrons

spoke at the podium before I took my own turn, I was tak-ing notes including the name and area of residency of each. Therefore, I was well aware of the residence of Lake Lure councilwoman Linda Turner and her husband Woody, and that of the seven Polk County residents.

None of those who spoke in favor of the requested an-nexation may vote in Town o f C o l u m b u s e l e c t i o n s . Not one of the five Columbus residents who spoke at the hearing favored the requested annexation, but rather expressed concerns and raised questions.

Several council members acknowledged having heard from additional residents with concerns about the proposed annexation.

According to North Caro-lina General Statute 160A-58.2, “If the council then finds and determines that… the public health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the city and of the area proposed for annexation

will be best served by the an-nexation, the council may adopt an ordinance annexing the area described in the petition.”

Just as I trusted the represen-tatives of Foster Creek Preserve and Chocolate Drop to know their best interests would be served by the annexation they requested of Columbus Town Council, I trust the business acumen of Ann Lyth and Joseph Laudisio in determining their own best interest before request-ing annexation of their property.

Whether Columbus resi-dents’ “health, safety and wel-fare” will be “best served” by the requested annexation is not clear. The agenda for the coun-cil meeting of July 21, shows “Staff recommends adoption of ordinance” under each of five items including the requested annexation.

At the bottom of the annexa-tion ordinance included in the agenda packet a week preceding the meeting, we read, “(Ord. 2011-02, passed 07/21/2011).”

An apparent assumption. Some Columbus residents are cur-rently finding their health and welfare compromised by limited income.

Leah reported, “The tax rev-enue would be $600 per year, according to town manager Jonathan Kanipe.”

This is not, as one unabash-edly pro-annexation speaker averred, “free money.” Change in economy, zoning and councils is inevitable.

Elected officials are as hu-man as the rest of us. Even in small towns where everyone is a near neighbor, some council decisions have been based on friendships, desire for prestige, and/or extremely superficial knowledge of a matter rather than the genuine best interest of constituents.

We love you, Joe and Ann, but your request may not serve our best interests as well as it would serve yours.

Sincere best wishes. – Kathleen Kent

Adger in 2009 for $1.6 million with plans to one day utilize it as a source for drinking water.

In order to be in a position to use the lake as a drinkning water source, the county had to seek reclassification of the watershed. Polk originally wanted to see it changed to a class IV, which would have impacted land only in Polk County, but the state insisted the watershed be reclassified to a class III. This means the changes would also affect land in Hender-son County (see page 5 for a map showing the watershed area).

Henderson County denied the request in 2009, with commis-sioners voting three to two against approving the plan. Polk County officials had hoped to try again with new Henderson commission-ers, but Whitson said those efforts have also failed.

The state can still reclassify the watershed without Henderson County approval, but Whitson said there is very little precedence for going about reclassification in this manner. He said he believes it has been done before but he isn’t sure what that process will look like. Concerned citizen group forms

In the meantime, concerned lake resident Sky Conard said there are numerous environmental concerns that could be addressed without the reclassification being finalized.

Conard recently formed the Green River Watershed Alliance to begin raising community support

for proactive measures.“I just came to understand as

I studied the lake and its erosion issues that this is a real problem, but it’s something we can actually do something about – this is real work,” Conard said. “It has to do with the quality of our water and it has to do with how long our water is going to last.”

After a hefty rainstorm, Co-nard said she’s seen the water s u r r o u n d i n g her home turn a murky color reminiscent of chocolate milk.

Conard be-gan poring over research related to watersheds about a year and a half ago and believes county officials and con-cerned citizens must work together now to prepare for the lake to be-come a viable water source down the road.

The alliance held its first meet-ing with state and local officials back in early June.

Those taking part in the discus-sion included officials from the North Carolina Department of En-vironment and Natural Resources’ (DENR) Division of Water Quality (DWQ), the Polk County Soil and Water Conservation District, Polk County Agricultural Economic De-velopment, Polk County Planning and Zoning, Henderson County Soil and Water Conservation Dis-trict, Americorps, Altamont Envi-ronmental and local conservancy groups such as Save our Slopes, Carolina Mountain Land Conser-

• Reclassification(Continued from page 1)

vancy and Western N.C. Alliance.Conard and member Jaime

Davidson also spoke briefly June 30 at the Transition Polk show-ing of “Code Blue: Water in the Mountains.” “Code Blue” is a documentary by David Weintraub, director of the Environmental and Conservation Organization (ECO), headquartered in Hender-sonville.

During this meeting, Eliza-beth Kountis from the reclas-sifications unit of DWQ pre-sented a water-shed map and explained the reclassification of this water-

shed to Level III. “Reclassifications are set out to

protect water quality in its current state,” Kountis explained more re-cently. “It’s not designed to make things better, it’s just designed to protect things as is.”

Polk County Engineer David Odom said the state returned its technical analysis of the wa-tershed about two months ago. He said the response confirmed the current water quality was in “excellent condition for use as a water supply.”

Conard, however, remains con-cerned about what she said is an increase of sediment in the lake.

“The No. 1 pollutant of drink-ing water is sediment – if you can prevent the sediment from filling the water there are so many benefits,” Conard said. “Erosion problems could take years to mitigate, so it would be nice if we could get that started with funding from the state.”

Conard said she feels all that has been considered thus far is what the Nature Conservancy calls “gray infrastructure,” such as pipes, the dam and a water

treatment plant. What hasn’t been planned for, Conard said, is the “green infrastructure” of grasses and trees that could be planted be-tween the land and water to serve as natural filters and prevent sedi-ment from increasing in the waters.

County Manager Ryan Whit-son said the county has worked to alleviate some of those issues through restrictions within various ordinances, such as the county’s subdivision ordinance. He said he does know that the issue of sediment will have to be addressed but said doing so could be costly if the county cannot find someone interested in using the sand and taking it away for little or no cost.

“As far as the silt in the lake goes, that is something we will have to look at some day but I’m not sure when,” Whitson said.

There is a planning phase through the North Carolina Wa-tersource Protection Plan in which state officials will come out and assist in making an assessment of what potential problems could pop up, Conard said.

She said this would be prefer-able to “trying to deal with the issues after you’ve turned on the spigot and started drinking.”

Until further progress can be made related to an actual re-classification of the watershed, Conard said the alliance would help promote clean water and the sustainability of a valuable natural resource by providing educational materials to the community and speaking to local organizations.

She said residents and land-owners around the lake need to understand soil and erosion laws, as well as promoting the value of restoring falling banks and putting out rain barrels to catch water.

“There is absolutely no reason why you should not be proactive and begin an environmentally pro-tective watershed because it takes years to develop,” Conard said.

“If Henderson County had agreed to [reclassification]I think it would have happened much faster….”

Reduced: chaRming Stone homefirst of October. Whitson said he hopes the DSS office can be moved into the new building by the end of that month.

The good news, Whitson said, is construction is on bud-get. If anything, change orders have made the total budget less, he said.

Commissioners were sched-uled to vote on the furniture bid on Monday, Aug. 1, which was budgeted at $100,000. Whitson said the low bid came in lower than what the county budgeted.

In addition, because the building is for social services, the county will be reimbursed a percentage of the furniture costs, as well as receiving other state and federal reimburse-ments for the construction of the building and interest on the loan.

The new building, located off Wolverine Trail in Mill Spring, on the county’s recre-ation park and middle school property, will be LEED (Lead-ership in Energy and Environ-mental Design) certified.

Construction on the building began in January of this year.

The county approved a $1,590,755 bid from Able Con-structors late last year for the construction, with the total project estimated at $1,914,052.

The county has agreed to finance the building at up to $1.85 million, with state and federal reimbursements ex-pected over the next 45 years.

Polk County expects state and federal reimbursements of more than $95,000 for the building this fiscal year, based

on an estimated 61-percent reimbursement rate. The to-tal reimbursements over 45 years could result in the county spending about $750,000 for the building. DSS services are provided by state, federal and county tax dollars, depending on the service.

The county has worked for the past couple of years to get all offices out of the aged Jervey-Palmer building (the former St. Luke’s Hospital) on Carolina Drive in Tryon. Commissioners have said the old building is costly to main-tain and not suited for county services because much of the square footage is made up of hallways.

The Meeting Place Senior Center, which was previously located in the Jervey Palmer building, moved in late 2009 into renovated space in the for-mer Carolina Classical School off Skyuka Road near Colum-bus.

The county’s veteran’s ser-vices office, also formerly located in the Jervey-Palmer building, was moved to the new senior center building as well.

Mental health services are still located in the Jervey-Palm-er building. Commissioners decided this year to purchase a house currently used for offices on White Drive in Columbus to house the county’s mental health services, provided by Family Preservation Services. Family Preservation has agreed to renovate the building to house mental health. Whitson said renovations to the mental health building are scheduled to begin in the next couple of weeks.

Going Back To School!

A Special Thank You To All Our Sponsors!

It’s back to school time again! Every August and September in the United States, millions of kids return to their school studies. You may be a little nervous about the first day of school, but there is no need to worry! Just remember that everyone may be a little scared on the first day. If you need help finding your class, ask a teacher for help. After a few weeks you will fall into a routine with your teachers and classmates. Study hard and have a great school year! There are many different types of school programs beginning at this time, such as elementary school, middle school, and high school, and even col-leges and universities. People of all ages attend school to learn many dif-ferent things. Elementary school is for ages five to 10; middle school is for ages 11 to 13; and high school is for kids from 14 to 17 or 18, depending on their birthday.

The summer of 1958 was the first season that Little League baseball was played in Polk County. That spring , boys of eligible age participated in tryouts at Harmon Field. Youngsters from all over the area were there; Green Creek, Columbus, Sunny View, Mill Spring, Tryon and Lynn. This was the first time some of the boys had interacted socially with someone from another place in Polk County.

There were four teams that year; the Braves, Cardinals, Indians and Red Sox. Glenn Dedmont was picked for the Cardinals. To the right is his team picture.

Top row: Charles McEntire, Bobby Swann, Coach Bi l l McCullough, Enos Turner and Glenn Dedmondt. Middle row: Steve Wilson, Alan Leonard, Carleton Holzhouser, Manager Judy Tucker, Paul Stacy, Ed Fisher and Dudley McCraw. Bottom row: Bruce Weeks, Jerry Bradshaw, Don Tucker, Dennis Lowe and Jeff Bradshaw.

Our family’s bittersweet moveIt really is a necessary evil

at times. There are very few people

who may actually enjoy this sadistic ritual we put ourselves through. Although it can be very cleansing for some, for others it is a royal pain - the act of moving. Nothing else could be more bit-tersweet in my mind.

I really don’t like moving. I mean really, who does? All of the labor involved, the organizing, the planning, the hustle and bustle.

At this time o f y e a r , o f course, there is the profuse sweating involved. Moving things that you wonder why in the world you continue to hang onto. Shirts that haven’t been worn in years, books I’ve never read, kitchen utensils I for-got I had, kids’ paraphernalia that I wonder if they know the reason they have it. In other words: stuff, stuff and more stuff.

Less is more, right? How much do we really need?

I look at all the things I move and wonder how much of it is actually beneficial to my living. Refrigerator: Yes, I need that, keeps my food cold and pre-served for a moment.

Bed: Maybe. I could survive in a tent on the floor and a blowup

mattress.Clothes: All I need is enough

to get me through the week and a little extra to switch up to keep people guessing.

Beauty products: For me, the essentials (toothbrush and soap); for my wife, give her her own personal bathroom to contain all of her possessions and everyone is happy.

Shoes: Ladies, come on, re-ally? The mon-ey we would have if women chose not to wear shoes. We could cut the deficit in half right there!

You get the point. It is a very purging ritual, though, to move and go through the things you really don’t need anymore. It re-ally helps to keep the inventory to a minimum.

It also helps if you’re moving to an area that you are extremely excited about. We are currently moving to Tryon. We love the area. My kids are definitely ex-cited about the area also.

After a few days of running around and trying to get a grip on why you have so much “stuff” to move, one really tends to feel very, well, pooped. So, naturally I thought to myself, a nice iced coffee would hit the spot right about now.

Luckily for me, right down the street a new coffee shop opened up. Inside the new thrift store in Tryon called New For You, there just so happens to be one of those great little (organic) coffee ha-vens. I waltzed right in, ordered an iced coffee and had a nice chat with the owner who served me, and did a little shopping while I was at it. You know, because I need more stuff to move, that’s why. They were super friendly and the coffee was wonderful.

Re-juiced and ready to move another load, I walked out into the sweltering sauna outside to allow the iced coffee to ooze out of my pores as I worked up another sweat.

The bittersweetness of it all finally hit me. Yes, it is hard work, but it will all pay off when it’s over. I can’t be afraid of a little purification now and then. Cleansing our lives is healthy and helps us in the long run. It clears our lives of useless things we really don’t need, and clears our minds to focus on what we truly do need.

TROT calls for volunteers; training Aug. 20Therapeutic Riding of Tryon (TROT) volunteers work with a child and horse. (photo submitted)

TROT, the therapeutic horse-back riding program at FENCE, will hold a training class for new volunteers on Saturday, Aug. 20 at 9 a.m., in advance of the begin-ning of fall classes in September. The training is required for all those interested in assisting during lesson activities for TROT’s riders, and also serves as a refresher course for returning volunteers.

Potential volunteers should be at least 16 years old, in reasonably good health, able to walk and oc-

casionally jog over uneven ground and able to hold one arm at or above shoulder level for up to 30 minutes. Experience around horses, while valuable, is not required.

The training will include a brief classroom introduction to therapeu-tic riding followed by instruction at TROT’s Rosemary’s Barn in basic horse care and skills in working with riders with physical or devel-opmental difficulties. The training generally lasts between two and two-and-a-half hours.

TROT’s weekly classes are taught by instructors certified by the Professional Association for Therapeutic Riding (PATH), the new name adopted earlier this year by the former North American Riding for the Handicapped Association. TROT is recognized by PATH as one of its premier accredited teaching centers. Those interested in taking the train-ing for this fall’s session should email [email protected], or call 828-859-9021.
