Resident tells Laurens County Council construction debris from Cannon Brook Farms is drifting into pastures
Summary
A resident reported ongoing construction trash from the Cannon Brook Farms development — including plastics, nails and saw blades — landing in private pastures and tree lines, and said repeated contacts with the builder and sheriff’s department had not solved the problem.
During the council’s quarterly public input session on Dec. 22, 2025, an unnamed resident reported that construction debris from the Cannon Brook Farms development has repeatedly blown onto nearby pastures and into tree lines.
The resident told the council the trash problem has been ongoing, that they have called the sheriff’s department and contacted the homebuilder (identified in the transcript as Ryan Homes) without a lasting remedy, and that they personally spent “probably 30 minutes the other day picking up just huge pieces of plastic and everything out of our pastures.” The resident also said they found construction nails and saw blades near their driveway and returned some material to the builder.
The speaker urged the council to continue its review of a related ordinance and to consider broader measures the council may be examining. No council action or formal staff direction was recorded at the meeting; council members thanked the speaker for raising the issue.
The meeting transcript identifies the development by name (Cannon Brook Farms) but does not record any county staff response, timeline for remediation, or enforcement action on the record. Residents concerned about similar debris should consult county code enforcement or public works staff for guidance and to request follow‑up.
