Resident tells commissioners her historic house is sinking, faults county engineer

A resident used the public comment period to tell the commissioners her historic home is "getting destroyed" and said site work and a missing spring in prior reports have left her property at risk. The resident described "a 21 foot slope with an 18 foot drop to my home," saying the condition has persisted and that she believes county engineer Cliff Clark did not follow required steps or contact the conservation department.

The chair acknowledged the speaker's frustration and said staff had reviewed photos and discussed the matter with Cliff Clark. The chair provided information about the complaint process and suggested the resident document a timeline and file a complaint with DEP if appropriate. "If you want to file a complaint, though, you have to do your homework on your part of it," the chair said, and staff offered the conservation contact information and guidance on the documentation the resident should collect. The commissioners did not take any immediate formal action at the meeting beyond advising next steps and offering documentation assistance.
