Columbus water/sewer rates to rise to pay for $2.75M in sewer plant upgradesTown receives state loan for workby Leah Justice

Columbus water and sewer customers will likely see rate increases as soon as next fiscal year in order for the town to com-plete $2,750,000 worth of needed

upgrades to its aged wastewater treatment plant (WWTP).

Columbus made progress last week toward getting the plant up to date by directing the town manager, attorney and engineer to draft a contract to design renovations.

The town was notified April 4

that it was awarded a loan with an interest rate of 2.455 percent from the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Re-sources (NCDENR) Construction Grant and Loans Section Clean Water State Revolving Fund

Calculating a win: PCHS Science Olympiad teamTeam goes to state competition April 30by Samantha Hurst

Polk County High School’s Science Olympiad team recently calculated its way into a ninth return to the state competition.

Team members brought home top honors from the Western Regional Science Olympiad Com-petition held March 19 at UNC at Asheville. The team will travel to the state competition at North Carolina State University on April 30.

Coaches Jennifer Allsbrook and Greg Robinson were proud of what they said is a young team with only one senior member. Robinson gives the credit to the kids and Allsbrook.

“She and the kids had that ‘don’t give up’ attitude,” Robinson said. “They didn’t give up and that’s what made the difference. Polk County students have that stick to it and get it done mindset.”

The day of the regional compe-tition Allsbrook had two students drop out, leaving her scrambling to make sure all 24 events were covered. She had already lost 10 seniors after graduation last year. But the team got it done.

“That’s part of what science is all about – problem solving,” Allsbrook said.

Students captured medals in 16 of the 24 events they competed in during the event.

Sophomore Julia Murray was one of several students who had to fill a role at the last minute. She and teammate David Carr placed third in tower building.

“We learn from experience,” Murray said. “We watch as a tower breaks and pay attention to its weak points. The great thing about our team is that everybody is willing to help each other.”

Allsbrook said she’ll be proud of her students regardless of where they place at state. Last year they placed 16 out of 45 teams, many of which came from schools sur-rounded by more technological resources, Allsbrook said.

“We’re rural Polk County, we aren’t in the middle of the research hub,” Allsbrook said. “So the success we’ve had speaks to our children and their preparation.”

Much of that preparation, the willingness to spend hours outside of the classroom training for their various competitions, has also had a profound affect on several students.

Junior Cole Pellatt has changed his mind about the potential ca-reer path he might follow once in college.

“I thought I wanted to go into English but now I’m really consid-ering engineering because of the things I’ve learned,” Pellatt said.

Pellatt won gold medals in chemistry lab and bottle rockets at regionals.

Jacob Hrobak finds himself af-fected by his experiences as well. He once thought surgery was his dream but now after spending some time examining DNA, fibers and fingerprints, he said a job in forensics has piqued his interest.

Students earning medals in-cluded:

One of the features of the con-cert will be the Spring Chicken String Band, a newly formed instrumental group. The band is made up of Janet Joens on Celtic harp, Clifford Joens on guitar, Linda Lee Reynolds on string bass, Alan Dillman on fiddle and Craig Kinney on claw banjo.

What makes this group unique beyond their individual and col-lective talents is that each is also a participating singing member of the Community Chorus itself.

Another instrumentalist will be showcased on the group’s

performance of “Cindy.”

D r. C h r i s Davis, profes-sor of applied percussion and director of the North Green-ville University Percussion En-semble and the NGU Marching Band, will add xylophone to the four-hand piano, drums, string bass and acoustic guitar also included in this dynamic version of the folk song.

• Columbus(Continued from page 1)

Program. The town was one of 18 water and sewer providers to be awarded the loan, out of 51 applicants. There is a possibility the town could be awarded a portion of the loan at no interest.

Columbus Town Council met Thursday, April 21 with Brian Tripp of W. K. Dickson Engineers.

Engineer estimates are that water and sewer rates will need to rise approximately 20 percent to pay back the 20-year loan. Council will have to decide whether to implement the in-creases all at once or in smaller increments over the next few years. Actual construction will likely not begin until January 2013, with payments for the loan not due until 2014, so the town has some time to implement smaller increases gradually.

Tripp said the town’s original project included upgrades to

the WWTP, putting a new well online and upgrades to the St. Luke’s Hospital pump station, but the state looked more favor-ably on the town’s application if it was specific to the WWTP upgrades.

Tripp said the town can seek other available grants and loans later to complete the smaller projects.

Some council members said they want to phase out payments to the engineers for needed documents such as the prelimi-nary engineering report (PER), the environmental assessment

(EA), engineering report (ER) and the design.

Council was comfortable going forward with engineers completing the PER, EA and ER, but expressed concern over the design phase, which is estimated to cost $170,000. The town has already paid W. K. Dickson $10,000 toward the PER, which is almost complete. The town owes W.K. Dickson between $25,000 and $30,000 to finish the PER, EA and ER.

Council approved directing staff to draft a contract with the engineers for the complete project and moving forward with the reporting phase of the project. Council will approve going forward with each step throughout the process.

Councilwoman Margaret Metcalf said council members visited the wastewater treatment plant and know what kind of condition it is in.

“We have been told that we need it pretty bad,” Metcalf said. “I think with that being, we need to figure out the best way cost-wise to do it and how we’re going to do it, not if we’re going to do it. If this breaks down, I think our citizens are going to be more upset with us than if we go ahead and take care of it now.”

The town’s plant is 40 years old and has well surpassed its expected life, officials said.

“Current issues with the wastewater system include an aging WWTP that is in a state of decline,” Tripp said in a report. “The WWTP, with a capacity of 800,000 gallons per day, has be-come deteriorated due to its age

and does not comply with cur-rent design criteria. The WWTP was originally constructed in 1968 with the most recent partial plant improvements in 1987.”

Since June of 1997, the town has received seven letters of violation and/or administrative orders/penalties associated with its WWTP plant, according to Tripp.

“The WWTP upgrade project will benefit the town because it will upgrade the WWTP to cur-rent design criteria, provide a second, redundant clarifier, pro-vide permanent back up power, upgrade and automate their disinfection system, improve headworks screening and im-prove solids handling capabili-ties,” Tripp’s report said.

Tripp also provided data on what increases will be necessary to pay back the loan. The town this fiscal year implemented a five percent water and sewer in-crease, which is not yet included in Tripp’s figures.

For town limit customers using approximately 6,600 gallons of water, rates would need to rise from the previous $24.17 per month to $28.52 for water. For sewer, rates would rise from the previ-ous $32.19 to $37.90, or a total of slightly more than $10 per month.

For customers using 3,000 gallons per month, rates would need to rise from the previous $15.85 to $18.70 for water and $20.86 to $24.61 for sewer, or a total of $6.60 increase per month, according to Tripp’s figures. The increases would be higher for outside town limit customers and commercial cus-tomers.

Tripp said he will later pres-ent updated figures that include the recent rate increases.

Council will consider an engineering contract during its May meeting, which will be held on May 17 at 5:30 p.m. The May meeting time has been changed from its regular third Thursday of the month because of sched-uling conflicts.

“We have been told that we need [wastewater treatment plant repairs] pretty bad. … We need to figure out the best way cost-wise to do it and how we’re going to do it, not if we’re going to do it. If this breaks down, I think our citizens are going to be more upset with us than if we go ahead and take care of it now.”

Columbus reviews peddler, loitering ordinance draftsby Leah Justice

The Town of Columbus is one step closer to strengthening its peddler/vendor ordinance and cre-ating new ordinances for loitering and temporary living facilities or camping on public property.

Town council met Thursday, April 21 and reviewed recom-mended drafts of the new ordi-nance from staff.

Columbus Police Chief Chris Beddingfield told the town last month his officers have no way of dealing with recent loitering prob-lems as well as instances where homeless or other people camp out on public property. Council has also expressed concern recently over peddlers selling products in town, which they feel hurts local businesses that pay taxes.

Council has decided it wants to prohibit any door-to-door commercial sales. The town will still allow fundraising projects door-to-door, such as for youth and civic groups.

Council discussed last week whether to prohibit religious enti-ties and political candidates from going door-to-door, but decided not to prohibit those door-to-door encounters. The town may instead require political candidates to re-ceive a card from town hall once they file for elections to prove to residents they are legitimate and allow door-to-door contacts only for a couple of months during election time.

“I wouldn’t be here [on the council] if I didn’t go door-to-door,” said councilman Michael Gage.

Others mentioned former councilwoman Becky Rome, who was said to have gone to every resident’s house in the town during one of her elections.

Gage and councilwoman Ernie Kan said they met a lot of people by going door-to-door.

“I don’t care who comes and

knocks on my door and don’t see why we should prohibit them,” said councilman Richard Hall. “Are we making our citizens afraid to go knock on their neigh-bor’s door?”

The town is considering how to strengthen its current peddler/vendor ordinance. Some of the changes under consideration in-clude whether to require a peddler to obtain a permit one week prior to selling products and whether to require peddlers to state if they have been convicted of a crime.

The town is also considering whether to subject peddlers to the town’s privilege license tax, which current merchants are re-quired to pay. Non-profit organi-zations, vendors for festivals and gatherings such as the farmer’s market are proposed to be exempt from the ordinance.

The town is also consider-ing creating new ordinances for loitering and temporary living facilities.

The loitering ordinance draft states that it shall be unlawful for any person to stand alone or congregate with other persons on any street or sidewalk or public place within the town limits with the intent to obstruct any public street, highway, sidewalk or other public place or building or obstruct the entrance of any business. The ordinance will al-low the police to order the person or persons to move. Persons who fail to obey police orders will be guilty of a misdemeanor criminal violation. The ordinance will not prohibit free speech.

The temporary living facility draft ordinance prohibits camping on public property. The draft ex-empts gatherings such as festivals or other events for which the town has granted permission.

Town council plans to con-sider the new and amended ordi-nances next month.

I once saw the face of god while in a fishing boat. When i was 5 years old my dad started taking me fishing on the holston River in eastern Tennessee. his favorite stretch of the river was the two miles downstream of the John Sevier Steam Plant in hawkins County where striped bass were large and numerous. Sometimes we would fish from the bank at place he called “The Island.” There it

was possible to wade the shallow river to a sand bar and cast out into the main channel where the 20 pounders lurked. Standing there by his side i not only learned to bait a hook, cast a lure and tweak a jig, i learned patience and a sense of peace that comes from being alone with someone you love. i could not begin to count how many times I was carried over to the island in the morning squirming and

eager, and back to the car in the evening exhausted and sound asleep. I still have my first Zebco rod and reel. one day dad launched his old wooden Jon boat, attached his little three horsepower motor to it and we headed upstream from the island to the warm water below the steam plant. the fishing that day was fantastic and we became so caught up in it that dad failed to notice the approaching storm. the wind came up, the sky grew dark and before dad could pull the anchor the rain started pouring down. it was about one half mile downstream to the car, but the strong wind was against us and the little outboard motor could not push hard enough to keep the bow of

the Jon boat down in the water. i remember dad saying, “Son, go get on the front seat!” in order to add weight to the bow. in my bright orange life vest i clambered over tackle, fish and paddles to the front seat, grabbed the painter and hung on for dear life. I can still recall my terror as the wind blew against us, the lightening flashed and the thunder crashed. I was so frightened I started to climb back to the safety of dad’s lap, but when i saw his face he was laughing and waving at me saying, “We’re having a big ole time now, ain’t we?” he was drenched, holding onto the tiller with one hand while grasping the rail of the fragile old boat with the other, and to my eyes

completely in charge of the situation. at that moment my fear passed and I saw god in my dad’s face. obviously we soon made it to the bank, into his old nash and then on home. he never said anything about that day even though I would often tell the story as one of the harrowing adventures of my youth. one of the last times he and i went fishing together we took my four year old son Isaac. When I recalled that stormy day, dad said, “oh, i remember! i was terrified, but i didn’t want you to be.” in that fishing boat i saw the face of god in my dad’s face, loving me and laughing to calm my fears, taking my terror on himself – God’s love, the love that passes all understanding.

Carolina Camera Club meets Jan. 11The next meeting of the Caro-

lina Camera Club will be on Tuesday, Jan. 11 at 6:30 p.m. at the Isothermal Community Col-lege in Columbus.

Join the club for a presentation titled “Digital After Dark” pre-sented by Kevin Adams. Adams has been teaching and leading photo tours in North Carolina since the early 1990s and has produced several books that have become valuable tools to many local photographers and outdoor enthusiasts.

Today’s digital cameras give us the ability to make images that we could not have dreamed of back in the film days. Nowhere is this truer than with night pho-

tography. Now we can literally shoot for the stars.

For those who associate night photography only with subjects like fireworks, cityscapes, and street scenes, you’re in for a surprise. In this eye-opening presentation, Kevin will share his techniques for photographing a variety of nighttime subjects, from the ordinary to the “Wow, I never would have thought of that!”

Attendees are advised to use caution before attending this presentation, however. Once you see all the exciting things you can do with your camera at night, you might be losing a lot of sleep from then on.

On Friday, April 29 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. “celebrity cookers” will cook hot dogs and hamburg-ers to raise money for two White Oak of Tryon nurses who are undergoing cancer treatment.

A plate lunch will include a hamburger, cheeseburger or hot dog with or without chili, coleslaw, baked beans and chips. There will also be a selection of homemade cakes and pies for sale.

White Oak Administrator Mary Lance said, “The White Oak staff has really pulled to-gether for this. Staff members and families of residents have donated everything except the hot dogs and the hamburgers. We have 15 really great raffle items, and because we have had so many requests for our one-of-a-kind breast cancer T-shirts, they will also be available.”

A gift card to Tryon House, dinner for two at Elmo’s, a gift certificate to Durand’s Auto Detail, a gift card to the Hospice Thrift Barn as well as massages, hair services and a few other surprises are a few of the items to be raffled.

Georgia Pack, rehab coordi-nator and organizing committee member said, “Sometimes we forget how lucky we are to live in an area that really works together when ‘our own’ need help.

“Things get donated, people come by to buy plate lunches, some people even write checks without getting lunch, just be-cause they want to help. It really makes all of us at White Oak very proud to be part of this community.”

Businesses have donated raf-fle items and three well-known cookers are donating their time to cook the lunch. Tryon Town Manager Justin Hembree, Tryon Fire Chief Joey Davis and Tryon Police Chief Jeff Arrowood will be on hand cooking hamburgers and hot dogs.

The junior varsity game was decided in the first half as Polk jumped out to an early 3-0 lead and never looked back, winning handily 3-1.

The varsity game was a very low scoring affair – only one goal was scored in the entire game. Polk kept the ball inside North Hendersonville territory

for most of the game, getting countless chances to score, but those efforts always seemed to end inches wide of the goal. After a very physical first half the game was tied 0-0.

In the second half, Polk’s strikers, Richelle Scuiva and Brittany Phipps, had chances to score, but they just couldn’t find

Polk varsity, JV soccer teams win over N. Henderson the back of the net until midway through the half when the Wol-verines finally broke through.

Kari Malkki made a great pass to Scuiva for the lone goal, giving Polk the lead and the win 1-0.

Polk travels to face longtime rival Hendersonville on Thurs-day, April 28.

The Tryon Concert Asso-ciation will bring to a close its 2010-2011 season with the male vocal ensemble Chanticleer Tuesday, May 3 at 8 p.m. at the Tryon Fine Arts Center.

This highly acclaimed a cap-pella choir of 12 male voices was formed in San Francisco in 1978.

Wanting to present music seldom heard at that time, their initial repertoire consisted of music from the medieval and renaissance periods.

Today they perform a wide range of music including jazz, gospel and other new music. The group has actively com-missioned works by many late

Chanticleer in TCA season’s final concert20th-century composers.

The ensemble works with more than 5,000 young people annually in extensive education programs including in-school clinics and workshops, the Chanticleer Youth Choral Festi-vals in the Bay area and around the country and master classes for university students across the nation.

Chanticleer tours widely in the states and abroad. Among its many honors, it was the first vocal group to be inducted into the American Classical Music Hall of Fame and, in 2008, was honored as Musical America’s Ensemble of the year.

The group’s recordings are

found on the Chanticleer Re-cords label and Teldec Classics International.

After hearing the group in concert in 1980 the highly re-spected choral conductor, Rob-ert Shaw, proclaimed it, “one of the most beautiful musical experiences of my life.”

The concert on May 3 will feature music ranging from the 16th to the 21st century.

The concert series is by sub-scription. For information call 828-859-6065 or write Tryon Concert Association, P.O. Box 32, Tryon, NC 28782.

Landrum Presbyterian Church will host an exercise program using Tai Ch’i. For those not familiar with Tai Ch’i, it is an ancient Chinese exercise con-sisting of slow and gentle body moves while breathing deeply.The gentle moves promote relax-ation and relief from stress.

Studies have shown it may help maintain bone health, pro-vide beneficial relief from the symptoms of fibromyalgia and knee osteoarthritis, improve sleep quality, promote cardiopulmo-

nary fitness through deep breath-ing and improve balance. This exercise is for all age groups. The only requirements are that you must be able to stand and do very gentle stretching.

An eight-week session will begin May 5, and continue each Thursday through June. In order to accommodate both retirees and those working, two classes will be held: 10 – 11 a.m. and 7 – 8 p.m.

Ed Kan of Isothermal Com-munity College will be the in-

structor. Each session is limited to 12 participants. This allows Kan to give ‘one-on-one’ in-struction.

Landrum Presbyterian Church is located at 404 Rutherford Street, across from the post of-fice. You will find fliers, with registration forms attached, in many restaurants/stores or you may register by calling 864-457-2761. Leave your name and number and any questions you may have regarding the program.
