WATERSHED RESPONSIBILITIES - TOWNS OF LOVE VALLEY AND HARMONY: The Honorable Sharron Kreiger, Mayor Pro -tem of Love Valley and Mayor John Ray Campbell, Mayor of Harmony, came before the board to request that the County assume the responsibilities for the watershed requirements by the state government. She presented a letter from the State office saying if the County would assume this responsibility for the Town, the State would give approval. Following her request, Mayor Campbell made a similar request from Harmony. Mr. Lundy said the County will be preparing an ordinance for watershed implementation for the rest of the county outside of the corporate city limits. Both Harmony and Love Valley would need to sign an agreement for the County to perform this service for them, Lundy said. The cost could be handled through fees borne by the individual seeking this service or to bill --- the town on a monthly basis. It is not now known how many requests for service they will have.
