In a recent government meeting, officials provided updates on several ongoing projects, including infrastructure improvements and environmental initiatives.
Mister Campbell reported that the third part of a proposal is still pending, with hopes for its presentation by the next meeting. He also shared progress on the stabilization work at site 38, noting that upper stabilization and wall drainage work is complete. The lower wall is approximately 50% finished, with final excavation and material removal ongoing. The completion of stabilization is expected by late summer, followed by road restructuring and paving.
Attention then shifted to bridge work on Route 145, where progress is being made on the north abutment inlet wing, with completion anticipated in the coming weeks. The south outlet wing will follow, along with a small pour for the north outlet wing.
Mister Parrish highlighted the Tennessee Valley Authority's (TVA) plans to deploy a third harvester at the local park to manage invasive species, specifically Milfoil and hill grass. This initiative is seen as a positive development for the community, coinciding with Parrish's recent involvement in the organization.
Commissioners expressed their commitment to serving the county's best interests, balancing district needs with broader community goals. They acknowledged the importance of transparency and collaboration in decision-making processes.
The meeting concluded with a note of appreciation for the efforts of the commissioners and a birthday acknowledgment for one of the members, emphasizing the camaraderie within the group.
