Johnson of Railroad Street. (Requested by Commissioner Boyles)
1
Mr. Boyles: Mrs. Johnson has a problem in front of her home as shown in these
pictures I have. It is both an eyesore and a safety hazard and I wonder if there is
something we could do.
I
Mr. Chairman: That has been an ongoing problem and those barriers are there to
keep someone from running off the road.
Mr. Cheek: That has been discussed but I believe it has been on hold due to some
funding issues.
Mr. Thompson: We need additional funds to get this project constructed and we
also have a right of way issue with the Norfolk Southern Railroad. We need to access
their property to make the repairs on the slope which involves some coordination with the
activities on the yard.
Mr. Boyles: I make the motion that we report back in two weeks at our next
meeting.
Ms. Sims: Second.
Mr. Cheek: Ifwe could information on percent of design complete, total cost of
the project, funded amount and anticipated construction time.
Motion adopted unanimously.
I
ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
