DISCUSSION OP PROCEDURES INVOLVING MOBILE SOME UNDERPINNING
AND OCCUPANCY: This matter was also recently tabled. Lynn
Niblock, Inspections Director, said he had reviewed this procedure
and determined that his office could allow thirty days temporary
power and occupancy when it was not possible to install masonry
underpinning on mobile homes due to severe weather conditions. An
owner would sign a statement stipulating they understand that they
had 30 days to complete the masonry underpinning. When the work is
completed the inspections dept. will be notified for an inspection.
Failure to comply will result in power being removed from the
mobile home. A $40 nonrefundable fee for temporary power, to cover
additional work required by the inspections department, will be
charged.
Commissioner Johnson asked if the $40 would cover the
inspection department's costs. Niblock said this amount ($40) is
already implemented in the list of costs for temporary power.
In reference to another matter, Commissioner Boone asked about
a recent complaint pertaining to some abandoned trailers on Shady
Lane. Niblock said he would check on this situation.
REQUEST TO RECEIVE BIDS FOR GEO-TECNNICAL STUDY FOR BLUEFIELD
PARE PROPERTY: Kim Gallyon briefed the group on this request. She
mentioned she had various price estimates for the study. They
range anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000.
Commissioner Johnson said he still had concerns about the "lay
of the land." Johnson said his understanding was that Crescent
Land & Timber had some studies of the area. He mentioned that if
the bids came in close to $10,000 he might have some reservations
about the site.
Chairman Haire,mentioned that a few years ago this property
had been presented as an "ideal" area.
Commissioner Madison asked if anyone had talked to Crescent to
see if the County could look at their soil borings. The county
manager said he didn't think there were any soil borings. Gallyon
mentioned that Larry Hendrix of the Soil Conservation Office had
looked at the area, but he can't go too far into the ground.
The county manager advised that it was never intended for the
County to build four parks. He mentioned that Bill Benfield, past
chairman of the Recreation Advisory Board stated a few years ago
that some property in Mooresville might be donated for a park.
Commissioner Madison said that once a price is known for a
park, then the community needs to raise the money to establish it.
The county manager mentioned that he thought the County should
survey the property and then turn it over to the community.
Madison said a basic design needs to be developed and then
tell the community how much it will cost.
Jerry Lundy said the property lines are already marked. The
county manager asked if it was surveyed. Lundy said yes -- that a
private company did it for Crescent.
