Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Scotland County public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
S&K Farms Major Subdivision
A public hearing was scheduled on a major subdivision application from S&K Farms, LLC. The proposal could bring new lots and homes to the county, with implications for roads, water and neighboring property.
Highway 79 rezoning and 17-lot subdivision
A rezoning and major subdivision for about 17 lots at Highway 79 and Elmore Road drew opposition from neighbor Ed Tatum, who cited past trailer park sewage failures, crime from vacant properties, and dangerous roads. Hearings were tabled to August 3 so more neighbors can attend.
Southeastern Community College Annex Property
Southeastern wants the county to give it the old annex building (asbestos inside) with the county paying nothing toward demolition; commissioners want Dr. Whitaker to present plans and possibly a clawback before March.
