Paradise Valley Campground Bulletins
AUGUST 20, 2011, 10:00 AM:
This
morning an information only Meeting was held by
the Board in the Pavilion to announce that
following the resignations of Buck Tidwell &
Skip Walton from the Board, Tom Grice and Joe Cuce
have been appointed to fill these Board vacancies.
By Laws specify that these appointments are until
the next Board election. Both Board Members
that resigned would have completed their elected
terms this election cycle, so our next election will
be for four Board seats, normal on this rotation.
Clyde Camp has become the new
President. Nick Coman continues as Vice President.
Committee duties were not announced at this
Meeting. Buck was chair of Grounds and Skip, Water
& Sewer. We wish the reconstituted Board
every success.

MOTE PERMIT RESCINDED, then,
JUDGE REVERSES RULING:
In
a technical ruling, a Georgia State Administrative
Hearing Judge found that Chris Mote's changing the
Applicant, from a Corporation to an LLC, during
the Permit Application period, requires, as a
matter of law, that the Issued Permit be
"reversed". An LLC may not hold such a
Permit. The Petitioners, appearing without legal
representation, included a number of Mote's
neighbors. It is unknown if Mote will pursue
further action in the matter. The ruling was
unrelated to the operation Mote proposed to run
under the Permit, but rather addressed what type
of entity might hold such a permit in the first
place. An Administrative Hearing is a first
step in a legal process that could next move to
Court ? Finding Filed June
7, 2010, read detail here.
The
July 8, White County News reports that Judge John
Gatto, who issued the ruling above, reversed his
ruling on June 30, after testimony from EPD
Director Allen Barnes revealed that there were
many EPD permits issued and in effect for years,
that had been granted to LLC's, without legal
challenge. This renders the technical argument
against Mote moot.
In
further developments, the several pending legal
actions against Mote were consolidated and the merits
of the various claims therein, will be heard in
future. Petitioners pin hopes of stopping Mote on
pollution claims.
It
seems this (legal) battle is far from
over.....
US MAIL:
The United States Post Office has directed that we no longer use a postal address that includes
our campground box numbers. An example of an old address : 1000 Paradise Valley Road #97. We are
now to use our actual street addresses or 911 addresses. An example of a new address : 96 Big Rock Road. In many ways
this simplifies mailing since your lot location and mail address are now the same just as if you were located on a
typical residential street. The mail carrier will translate your
present campground box number so you will continue to receive
your mail in your campground mail box as in the past.
Contact the carrier or leave a note in your
campground box if you have not received your
written notification.
If you do not know your correct
911 address see a campground directory, refer to
the maps
page of this web site for orientation or contact the
911 mapping
office in Cleveland.
