IN RE: REPORTS AND INQUIRIES OF BOARD MEMBERS
Supervisor Radford stated he has one item for staff to consider. He had a
citizen call him in regards to a code violation was written by one of our compliance
inspectors last week and it was in regard to where we have the code about inoperable
vehicles and that we don't them in front of the home or in the yard on the property being
unattended. This inspector was on another call looking at something else and he
happened to go by this house and noticed the expire inspection sticker that was about a
month and % old. Today, after COVID, there are less inspectors and it takes longer to
get a car inspected. This constituent stated he just had not had time to do it. He has an
active family, doing a lot of things, just like he does, we get busy with life. We want to
make sure we don't have inoperable vehicles, but we certainly don't want to go around
harassing our citizens, when we have a completely operable vehicle and an expired
State inspection. He does not feel like we have to police that. There has to be some
type of adjustment. He has spoken to Mr. Blount about this and he has spoken to Mr.
Lubeck and hopefully we can get something that is a little easier to digest with County
citizens.
Supervisor Hooker thanked everyone for indulging her with the time it took
to acknowledge all of the student athletes and she felt it was worth it. She added she
had a good meeting Wednesday with 25-20 citizens at Catawba Valley Watch meeting
and appreciate the update from Jess Ahorn. There are some exciting things going on
there in extending broadband.
