Commission approves Sain Lane closure after complaints of dumping and trespass
Summary
The commission approved a request to close Sain Lane and convert it to a private entrance after the highway board recommended closure following reports of trespassing and illegal dumping; the minutes record inconsistent mover/seconder details.
Hardeman County commissioners approved closing Sain Lane and converting it into a private entrance after the highway board recommended the action and the property owner cited repeated trespassing and illegal dumping, including couches, trash and debris.
Mr. Swift of the Highway Department presented the request and said the county will remove the public road sign after the closure. The minutes record a motion to approve the closure made by Hon. Jackie Sain and seconded by Hon. Johnny Lanier; that motion was carried by acclamation. The minutes also include a second entry that records a motion to approve the same road closure by Hon. Brad Grantham and seconded by Hon. Mark Gilliam; the duplicate entries create an inconsistency in which individuals were recorded as mover and seconder.
No formal vote tally was recorded beyond "carried by acclamation." The county did not state a timeline for the sign removal or provide a follow-up assignment in the minutes.
