The May Meeting began at 1:30pm.Therewere22members present and all recited the Pledge of Allegiance.
Sandy read two humorous stories. Marshall County Commissioner Chris Duroy, our County Commissioner was the guest speaker In February and March, the paving cost for McDuffee and Alberta Creek Roads was $700,000. Grant money was used to pay the total amount. The road account stays at about $250,000 and the county uses grants to make the differences.
Currently, Duroy is trying to get everything mowed for the holiday weekend. The report on Point Vista and the Hardrock Café is that it will be built just past the Rooster Creek bridge.
The state owns the bridge and the airstrip. Both will be removed.
The Chickasaws are replacing the bridge. The road from Alberta Creek to the Hardrock is currently being purchased for right-of-way for road work. Homeowners are being offered $85K to $90K per acre for their land to be used for the right of way.
