At a public nuisance hearing on Nov. 26, Charles Darren Ross addressed complaints about inoperative vehicles and rubbish at 1188 A Trickenbridge Road and told the planning commission he had begun cleaning the property.

Ross said he had only recently received the county's notice, explained a longstanding mail mix‑up with a neighboring parcel and described steps he had taken to cover and move inoperable vehicles. "I cleaned it all up beforehand because I... just got this letter," Ross said, and added that several vehicles were under car covers and some were operable. He described two vehicles — a 1973 Ford Maverick and a 1982 Chevy C10 — as long‑term restoration projects.

Commissioners reminded Ross of noise restrictions for weekend work and advised him to keep activity low near older neighbors; staff noted the health‑department review for a separate septic issue on a nearby parcel during an earlier agenda item but took complaints about accumulation and inoperative vehicles as the basis for the hearing.

Next steps: commissioners requested Ross monitor noise and property maintenance; the hearing record was left open for the county's enforcement process to proceed according to ordinance.
