Daniel Owens Contracting to restore Landrum Depot

by Samantha Hurst

Daniel Owens Contracting received approval from Landrum City Council members Tuesday, July 10 to take on restoration of the Landrum Depot despite concerns regarding the project’s increasing costs.

“Were you at all surprised by the bids that came in?” Councilman Jon Matheis asked architect John Walters.

Walters said he would have liked to see the bids come in lower but knew costs of historic renovations could be unpredictable.

Owens provided the lowest bid for the project at $415,667, while two other contractors Larry Sossamon Construction out of Gaffney and Karaman Properties of Landrum supplied bids at $443,410 and $472,734, (Continued on page 4)

St. Luke’s presentation on rotator cuff injuries July 17 Monte Palmer, occupational therapist with St. Luke’s Outpatient Rehabilitation, will present “The Rotator Cuff: Preventing Injury as We Age” on Tuesday, July 17 at 3 p.m. in the hospital library.

A rotator cuff tear is a common cause of pain and disability among adults. Each year, close to 2 million people in the United States visit a doctor because of a rotator cuff problem. A torn rotator cuff will weaken

your shoulder. This means that many daily activities, like combing your hair or getting dressed, may become painful and difficult to do.

You can learn more about rotator cuff injuries and how to prevent them by attending Palmer’s presentation. Call 828-894-2408 to reserve your spot. Light refreshments will be served.

Cannon to review the changes.

The county held a public hearing Monday on the amendment with no comments being made.

Cannon said Columbus Town Manager Jonathan Kanipe told DOT the town wanted the Peniel Road resurfacing project to include curb and drainage so the town can install sidewalks at a later date.

The amendment will take funds from the Collinsville Road widening project, estimated at approximately $520,000, in order to include the improvements to Peniel Road and Walker Street in Columbus, estimated at $250,000. Cannon said the Collinsville Road project would be moved to the 2013 schedule.

With the leftover funding, the state will pave Adam Millis and Dalton roads, both of which are currently unpaved.

Hidden Hill Road resident Howard Greene has requested the paving of Adam Millis Road for decades. Greene told DOT representatives last year that he has been trying to get Adam Millis Road paved for 60 years. He said he has repeatedly attended the state’s secondary road public hearings since the 1950s asking that the gravel road connecting Horseshoe Curve and Hidden Hill Roads be paved.

The Adam Millis project is expected to cost $40,000 and includes grading, drainage, base and paving the unpaved road.

The Dalton Road project is projected to cost $220,000 and also includes grading, drainage, base and paving the unpaved road.

The Peniel Road improvements are planned between the Columbus city limits and Hwy. 108, particularly between the Holly Hills subdivision and the Walker Street/Peniel Road

intersection.

Columbus Mayor Eric McIntyre sent commissioners a letter urging the board to approve the amendment.

“The town regularly receives complaints regarding drainage, walkability and safety for this section of road,” states McIntyre in his letter. “Drainage improvements will improve safety, as any issues with water running over the road could be addressed during this time. Furthermore, these improvements are a necessary precursor for any sidewalk installation along this road.”

McIntyre said Holly Hills has approximately 52 homes and several other homes could also connect to downtown through a potential sidewalk.

Other projects in the DOT’s 2012 plan include improvements to Thermal View Drive in Lynn and Wilderness Drive in Tryon Township.

The state’s 2012 plan is budgeted at $674,000, including the

road improvements and other spot stabilizations, surveys and safety signage throughout the county.

Commissioner Ted Owens also asked Cannon when paving can be done along Hwy. 9 in Mill Spring. Cannon said the state has ranked Hwy. 9 improvements and they are three to four years out.

Commissioners agreed to draft a resolution requesting the state put Hwy. 9 improvements higher on the priority list. Commissioners plan to adopt the resolution at their next meeting in August.

Commissioner Ray Gasperson also asked Cannon about double striping being done along Hwy. 108 in Lynn. Cannon said he has been assured the section Gasperson referred to will be double striped by the end of this fiscal year.

The DOT holds a public hearing annually to get feedback from Polk residents regarding the county’s secondary road needs.

A quick look at an online dictionary or Wikipedia can give us a start. A community is 1) a cluster of mutually supportive organisms which coexist for a common benefit (for example, a jellyfish, a herd of wildebeests); 2) a group of mutually supportive individuals voluntarily gathered for a unified purpose (for example, a monastic community, a church, a civic club); 3) a population of individuals sharing a mutually supportive government, economy, and culture with reciprocal advantages (for example, villages, towns, cities); 4) an association of populations acting in a mutually supportive manner for the common good of all

(for example, states, nations).

Please note that the key phrase here is “mutually supportive.”

By that reasoning a community can form around almost anything. We often see it happen in sports and clubs of all kinds, but that sharing of a single specific purpose makes being mutually supportive comparatively easy.

However, when the purpose becomes more general and the participants are more diverse in their needs and interests, maintaining a viable sense of community becomes much more difficult to achieve. Very often personal concerns, greed for wealth or power or avarice

Therefore, being a successful and vibrant community cannot be posited on the individual gratification of its members. A sports team is genuinely successful only when the members work and act together for the success of the whole. For any community of any kind to prosper and be viable every member must surrender personal gain, privilege and power for the sake of being mutually supportive of the whole. Out of that spirit and practice of self-sacrifice for the sake of the whole will grow a truly and “American Cuisinepositive with a Twist” Corner of Peak St. & community.

Marc Yaxley Trio to perform at Rogers Park July 13 The Marc Yaxley Trio takes the stage at Rogers Park in Tryon, July 13 at 7 p.m. This third show in 2012 Summer Tracks Concert Series is sponsored by TD Bank.

The Marc Yaxley Trio brings together the talents of three musicians with impressive careers in their own right. Jazz-blues guitar master Marc Yaxley has opened for jazz great Ramsey Lewis, trumpeter Maynard Ferguson and blues rocker Warren Haynes. Since moving to Western North Carolina in 1993, Yaxley has recorded six CDs and performed as a soloist at numerous local venues, including the Grove Park Inn Jazz Festival. Yaxley serves on the music faculty at the University of North Carolina-Asheville.

Yaxley is joined in the trio by Bill Berg on drums and Cameron Austin on bass.

Berg is best known as the drummer for the 1980s1990s contemporary jazz band Flim & the BBs. Berg has recorded with folk-music greats Bob Dylan, Cat Stevens and Leo Kottke.

Austin was a mainstay bassist and producer for both live and studio productions during the thriving acoustic rock decade in Atlanta, Ga. He also serves as an assistant professor in the business and organizational leadership department at Brevard College.

WCCR presents suspense play, Eddie Condon July 16 The Western Carolina Classic Radio Club will meet Monday, July 16 at 2 p.m. in the Polk County Library. Please note the change of location to the library, which is located across the parking lot of the ICC-Polk campus.

The old-time radio show will be a suspense play, “Death Has a Shadow,” starring Bob Hope in a role completely different from

his comedy persona.

Suspense, “radio’s outstanding theater of thrills,” aired on the radio from 1940 - 1962, with “another tale well calculated to keep you in suspense.”

Prof. Hoyt will keep everyone guessing with his trivia quiz.

The radio/TV presentation will be a club comedy special with laughs galore.

The summer jazz series continues about 3:05 p.m., spotlighting the immortal Eddie Condon, who was the moving force behind some of the greatest jazz records ever produced.

All are welcome and it is free.

French cuisine potluck at Slow Food Foothills July 15 Slow Food Foothills (SFF) offers residents an opportunity to showcase their French-cooking masterpieces or more simple renditions. The group’s monthly potluck community gathering will be held Sunday, July 15 at the 1906 Pine Crest Inn from 4:30 - 6:30 p.m. and is always open to anyone interested in attending.

Beef Bourguignon? Steak au Poivre? Pot-au-feu? Or the custardy egg quiche, a Pommes de Terre à la Boulangere, a blueberry Millefeuille?

All are welcome to get into the French convivial spirit and

share a French-themed potluck dish along with community spirit.

The group will choose winners in French-themed categories for foods brought in, and door prizes will be awarded.

Categories include the following dishes: Facile d’été - Simple Summer Fare - five or fewer ingredients Cuisine Classique - Traditional French dish Legumes Seul - Only vegetables Fusion françaises - American classic with a French flair Bon Bons Fantastique –

French-inspired desserts Biologique et Locale - Organic and local Another treat will include an inside glimpse of the 1906 Pine Crest Inn, which is under new operational management.

The SFF night’s agenda will include the outcome of the first SFF spring fundraiser at Overmountain Winery on May 20, which drew almost 300 people made more than $4,000 in profit.

You can also learn how to join a number of slow food community projects in the area.

Unlike some SFF potlucks,

this is not a BYOB dinner. Rather, select wines by the bottle or glass and a wide selection of beers and spirits will be on offer for purchase. Mark Parsons, operations manager of Pine Crest Inn, is creating a special Bastille Day Wine Spritzer that will be sold by the glass. All are asked to bring their own place settings to reduce waste.

For more information, contact Carol Lynn at caroljackson@tds. net or Mindy Wiener at mindywiener@gmail.com.

The award was presented by past president Don Lyons, who noted Sutherland’s many contributions to the club’s projects and activities, as well as his service and volunteer work with the House of Flags, Steps to Hope and the Columbus Fire Department.
