Building official: housing activity up; Enbridge pipeline work advancing through county
Summary
The building official reported many houses reaching final stages and described ongoing construction for the Enbridge East Tennessee pipeline — grading, site prep, compressor station work and pipe-laying along Highway 25 — warning residents to expect blasting and offering office contacts for concerns.
The building official reported increased housing activity in the county with many previously started houses now reaching final stages and being sold or occupied.
The official also updated the board on the Enbridge East Tennessee gas pipeline project, saying contractors have completed grading and site preparation in multiple locations, including work related to a compressor station and a solar array. "They are moving through the county now and going through that," the official said, adding that residents traveling on Highway 25 near the old racetrack will see large, long green pipe staged for installation. The official warned that residents may hear blasting noises during construction and offered office resources and contact information for people with concerns about project impacts.
No formal action on the pipeline was recorded during the meeting; the report was informational and board members were invited to consult the building official’s office for further details.
