Their last public meeting of 2017 on December 4th was one of their shortest – barely more than 20 minutes – but then the only business for members of the Blue Ridge School Board was to swear in new and re-elected members, then organize themselves and adopt a meeting calendar for the new year.  They won’t meet in public again until January 15, 2018.  Shortly thereafter they will begin looking at a new budget.

Multiple complaints from residents were addressed at the Thompson Township Supervisors meeting held on December 6th.  The first issue-disputing neighbors at Wrighter Lake, with one resident putting up a pergola, which was reported to the Township as a gazebo.  The Supervisors sent the resident a letter stating a structure was put up without a permit.  The resident who put up the pergola came to the meeting with pictures of the structure, and a map of her property.  She stated her neighbor claimed it was too close to her property, but she informed the Supervisors she owns a twenty-five foot right of way between the properties.  After Supervisors Rick Wademan, Alex Komar and Susan Jenkins reviewed the information the resident presented they determined a permit was not needed and it was an issue between the two neighbors to settle.
