NICE WEATHER WEEKEND...
NICE TODAY...HIGH OF 88.

THE COUNTY ATTORNEY WAS DIRECTED BY THE SUPERVISORS TODAY TO FILE A CIVIL INFRACTION SUIT AGAINST FRANK RANDALL FOR NOT GETTING HIS PROPERTY ON ROCKDALE ROAD CLEANED UP. RANDALL ASKED FOR 90 MORE DAYS TODAY,BUT THE BOARD SAID NO AND DIRECTED THE ATTORNEY TO START LEGAL PROCEEDINGS IN MAGISTRATE COURT. RANDALL REPORTED THAT THIS AMOUNT OF CLEANUP HAS BEEN DONE: IN THE LAST YEAR, HE HAS REMOVED MORE THAN 65 AUTOS....40 LOADS OF METALS....350 TIRES AND RIMS....20 LOADS OF APPLIANCES AND MORE THAN 20 LOADS TO THE LANDFILL. WOW.

AND AT THEIR HIGHWAY 61 LOCATION, THEY ARE REMOVING
A LARGE PILE OF DIRT AND WILL PAVE THE ENTIRE AREA AROUND THEIR BUILDING OUT THERE AND THEN FENCE IN THE AREA THAT IS USED TO STORE PROGRAM CARS.
FOR FUTURE SALE. THEY WOULD LIKE TO BUY THE OLD TRUCK STOP BUILDING, BUT AFTER ABOUT 10 YEARS OF CLEANING UP THE SOIL AROUND IT, THE SUPERVISORS FOR SOME REASON, DON'T WANT TO SELL THE PROPERTY....A BIG MYSTERY TO MANY CITIZENS.
