Citizens Comments
Roger Reedy, a property owner in Town, addressed the Council with
a complaint over the wording on the sewer cut-off notice he recently
received. Mr. Reedy claimed there was an invalid statement
about the W.C.S.A. reconnection fee. Also, he is personally offended
by the part of the notice that informs recipients that if their
water supply gets terminated (due to lack of payment), and they
tamper with it in an attempt to turn it back on themselves, they
are subject to prosecution. Mr. Reedy stated that he took
offense this statement and felt it was an inference of dishonesty;
asking the Council to consider rewording the cut-off notices in
a less offensive manner.

the Town’s pool repairs.

Mr. Hayes also commented that monies collected from the 2010 Trail Days
will probably have to help with the expenses that will be incurred for
repairing the pool.
Planning Commission:
Mr. Sizemore had nothing to report.
Police:
Chief Nunley submitted to the Council a detailed monthly report, as follows:
The Damascus Police Department has
had a busy agenda for the month of January, with no serious incidents with
the last snow storm. Numerous training days have been completed and meetings
attended throughout the month. There has been a high call volume this month
primarily due to weather related incidents.
The Neighborhood Watch conducted
there meeting on January 28th, 2010 where several topics were discussed.
First, they would like to have the opportunity to plant flowers again this
year, by doing so they will need to know how much money will be allotted
to them, if any by the Town to complete this task. The group has planned
to start a fund raiser in the very near future, this fundraiser will be
a raffle for an antique shotgun that has been donated by one of the members
of the Neighborhood Watch. We hope that this goes well and the drawing
will be conducted at the completion of Trail Days.
The Neighborhood Watch also would
like to provide the opportunity for Businesses and individuals in the community
to donate a small amount to the Neighborhood Watch program and in return
a sign with the individuals name or business name will be placed in one
of the flower barrels along town. The Neighborhood watch group would like
to hear the thought of the council in reference to this. Also the Neighborhood
Watch program would like to reserve the Town Park on Columbus Day October
11th, 2010 to have a Town Yard Sale and Craft Sale. The Neighborhood Watch
group will have a small charge for each booth or table that is set up in
the park and all monies received goes to the Neighborhood Watch program.
The Police Department has received
several complaints reference the tree that is located on the South end
of the Town Park. This tree has been struck by several vehicles in the
past few months. The tree does not appear to be in good condition and sets
very close to the edge of the road. Upon speaking with these concerned
individuals, I advised them that I would bring this to the councils attention
during the next Council meeting. Another concern brought to my attention
is trees on the Creeper Trail just past the Town Pool, traveling into town,
that are leaning in the path of riders on the trail.
The Damascus Explorer program is
running well. These young individual now are training for a regional competition
that will be hosted in the summer. They meet four times a month, two of
those being on weekends, preparing for the event. If you know anyone between
the ages of fourteen and twenty one that would like to participate with
this program, please have them contact the Police Department for further
information.
The Police Department has been
working hard with other law enforcement agencies to become one of the top
agencies in providing additional training for all the departments in the
area. For example, the Damascus Police Department will be hosting several
classes in the upcoming months that will be available to all law enforcement
agencies like Fire Investigator Certification starting July 12th, this
will be a three week class and will be conducted at the Bingo Hall on South
Shady Avenue. Other classes being made available are Bicycle safety training
for the public and Police Bicycle certification.
The Police Department
is well under budget for the year and have been fortunate to receive numerous
grants over the last few months. The department has applied for several
other grants but the awards letters have not been received as of this date.
New portable radios for the officers and new automatic external defibrillators
are scheduled to arrive any day. These expensive items were the result
of a Rescue Squad Grant that was made available after receiving our First
Responder licensure. The Police Department in the near future will start
conducting road checks in different areas of the town. This being part
of the Highway Safety Grant. Also the purchase of another digital in-car
camera and radar unit will be placed during the month of February, this
being a part of the same grant. Upon speaking with the State, they assure
that reimbursement time will be much quicker due to changes that have been
made in the last six months.

Mr. Upchurch reported that the underground tank has been removed
and a new above ground tank has been installed; and the generator

received the certification required for water testing, etc…
Mr. Greer asked if there is a way to adjust sewer bills for
residents who have had a water line break between the meter and
the house, and could prove that there was a break and it has
been fixed. In this situation the water would be passing
through the meter (causing the bill to increase), but not actually
going into the home, or being used.
Mayor Jones answered that the sewer bills are based solely on
the water readings (from the meters) sent to the Town by the
W.C.S.A., and there is no other method of billing in place.
The Council had a discussion on the topic and decided to turn
it over to the Sewer Committee for discussion at their next scheduled
meeting.

The month of February has
been busy for the Police Department, primarily due to weather
related incidents causing an increase for calls for service.

as well as some of the training events scheduled for the Explorer
Post.
The 1997 Chevrolet Astro
Van now parked in the rear lot was confiscated in November 2009
during a narcotic arrest in town. The vehicle has 118,000 miles
and appears to be in good running condition. This vehicle has
been awarded to the Town of Damascus by the courts. This judgment
will be final on April 30th, 2010 after the completion of the
Circuit Court ruling. The Town of Damascus will own this vehicle
until the decision is made to sell. When the vehicle is sold,
the Town of Damascus will receive 33 and one third percent of
the amount received. The Commonwealth Attorneys Office and Department
of Criminal Justice Services will receive the same.

Police Department has not been able to participate in the Click
it or Ticket, or any of the other highway safety campaigns, but

additional saturation patrols and road checks. The portable radar
sign that was used during April and May of 2009 is scheduled
to be back in town during the month of April, if not earlier.
If you have a particular location that you would like this radar
sign placed, feel free to contact me at the office or send an
e-mail to bnunley400@yahoo.com.
