Car business back on tableby Leah Justice

New commercial businesses in some areas of Tryon could see new regulations shortly after the new year.

The board of planning and adjustment met Thursday, Dec. 16 and proposed adding a new zoning district in town, referred to as the transitional business

district (TBD). The new district is being proposed down South Trade Street, from the railroad tracks to the Carolina Drive area and on the other side of downtown from near town hall, encompassing small portions of U.S. 176 and Hwy. 108.

The new district would have more similarities and uses of the downtown Central Business District (CBD) than the areas’ current General Business Dis-trict (GBD) zoning. The TBD

would also have setback and parking requirements, which the CBD does not need due to public parking and buildings being on the street.

The board was also updated last week that business owner Bob Payne, who previously withdrew an interest to pur-chase a lot adjacent to Chest-nut Street where the former Prass Company was located,

Columbus City Council hon-ored Fire Chief Geoff Tennant and Police Chief Clyde “Butch” Kennedy for their years of ser-vice to the community during the Thursday, Dec. 16 council meeting.

The two men both plan to re-tire by the beginning of 2011.

Tennant began battling blaz-es 35 years ago, joining the Co-lumbus department in 1975. He was appointed fire chief seven years later and has remained in that position for 28 years.

“You really don’t realize how much this gentleman works until you listen to the scanner,” said Columbus Mayor Eric McIntyre. “You really don’t realize how much he does for this community until you stop and think about everything he’s been involved in.”

Tennant received the Order of the Long Leaf Pine award for extraordinary service to the state. This is the highest

honor bestowed upon a citizen of North Carolina. He was also awarded the Fire Officer of the Year award by the Western North Carolina Association of

Firefighters in 2006. He also serves to this day as

Sanitation customers who have dumpsters in Landrum may see an increase in rates next July.

City of Landrum officials say residents and commercial pick-up sanitation custom-ers are subsidizing costs for commercial customers with dumpsters.

Landrum City Council met Dec. 14 and discussed whether or not to take bids for sanitation when its contract with GDS is up in June 2011.

Commercial customers with dumpsters pay the city $48.15 per month, while it cost the city more $50 per month per dumpster.

“I look at garbage just like power and water,” said council-man Billy Inman. “It’s a user fee and they are the users.”

Councilwoman Jan Horton agreed and said the city should charge customers what it cost the city.

“I don’t think we should make money on it,” said Hor-ton. “If we’re charging under on commercial, then we should go up on commercial.”

Residential customers pay $8 per month for city garbage service and Wolochowicz says the contract is slightly under that for the city. Commercial customers with two roll-out carts pay $27.85 per month and the city’s contract is slightly less than that.

Wolochowicz said the city could solicit bids next year when the contract is up, but recommended extending the contract with GDS, saying he feels like they are the least ex-pensive provider.

The city has had complaints over the years about garbage service, particularly with re-cycling service and garbage containers not being replaced, but council agreed last week that they feel those issues have been taken care of.

Councilman Randy Wohnig said cheap is great, “but I just want to make sure we’ve got good service.”

Council agreed for Wolochi-wcz to get a price from GDS on what the 2011 contract would be. The board will decide at a later date whether or not to go out to bid next year.

Landrum dumpster customers could see increase in 2011

New equestrian teacher, trainer in Green Creek

Ed Richardson is now offering riding lessons in Polk County.

Richardson focuses his teach-ing on beginners and people who are getting back to riding and need to build their balance and confidence.

As a youth, Richardson rode open jumpers and fox hunted with Loudoun Hunt in Leesburg, Va. Hunter trials and point-to-point races were his passion.

H i s f i r s t formal riding l e s s o n w a s at the former Italian Cavalry school at Ag-nano, Italy, where his father, a naval officer, was stationed. This is where he was first introduced to training horses with the use of cavaletti.

As an adult, raising a fam-ily in the greater Chicago area, Richardson stayed close to horses as a photographer, and his pic-tures appeared regularly in the “Chronicle of the Horse.”

In 1979, Richardson emi-grated to California, where he returned to active riding.

Fox hunting was sparse in California. In order to run and jump, he found three-day event-ing to his liking.

He got so involved that he and his wife, Susanna, purchased a boarding/training stable that they operated for a few years.

They then purchased 60 acres in Winters, Calif., and for 15 years he and Susanna, taught lessons, trained horses and organized horse shows in eventing and hunter/jumper.

Pony clubbers met regularly at the farm where Richardson often was the clinician.

Jane Schwartz and Lilo Fore provided Richardson with most of his dressage training. He par-

ticipated fre-quently with m a n y m o r e wonderful in-structors.

Richardson said he owes his knowledge and patience in jumping and cross-country to Jimmy Wofford, Olympian and author of “Train-ing the Three-Day Event Horse and Rider” and “Gymnastics, Systematic Training for Jumping Horses.”

According to Richardson, Wofford is a master, not only coaching the advanced level but having the patience and techniques he uses with the beginner.

Over the years, Richardson has trained with many other notable instructors: Torrance Watkins, Mike Plumb, Bruce Davidson, Mark Phillips and numerous others.

For more information about lessons, call 828-289-3556.

Market Place

By Leah Justice

Landrum officials decided this week that allowing chicken coups were not in the city’s best interest.

Landrum City Council met this week and had on the agenda a request from Justin and Em-ily Brock for the city to amend its codes to permit chickens on residential properties within the city.

No council member made a motion to amend its codes, so the item was denied.

Council members briefly dis-cussed the request during a work session held prior to the meeting and said the property was located within a subdivision with less than one acre lots and city offi-cials did not think with potential noise the city wanted to allow the use.

Landrum denies keeping chickens

School Board and as a member of the Polk County Rescue Squad.

“I may give up responding at 3 o’clock in the morning to a call of a cat in a tree,” he said.

Tennant said he answered those 3 a.m. calls for so long, because of the people he works with each day.

“I feel a sense of responsibil-ity for them. If the building falls in on me, that’s unfortunate for me, but if it falls on one of my people … I want to be there to do what I can do to make sure every one of my folks go home,” he said.

Another regular Columbus face plans to take a break himself. This will be Butch Kennedy’s second retirement.

Kennedy’s wife, Becky, said former City Manager Glenn Rho-des came to their front door four years ago to specifically ask her husband to take on the job as po-lice chief. Butch had been retired for seven years from the North Carolina Highway Patrol.

“I just felt like it was such an honor for them to ask him to come and straighten out the town and he has,” she said.

Assistant Chief Chris Bed-dingfield said Kennedy accom-plished more in his four years as chief than Beddingfield knew was possible.

“When Butch took over the

department it was in turmoil,” Beddingfield said. “He was com-ing into a hornets nest, and I do mean a hornets’ nest, but he cleaned it up.”

Town administrators credit Kennedy for building a staff with more than 120 years of combined service, updating the depart-ment’s vehicle fleet, instituting the reporting of regular crime statistics to the state and seeking grants to purchase new bullet proof vests. He also moved the department from the basement of City Hall to its own building and redesigned officer uniforms.

Beddingfield thanked Ken-nedy for his professionalism, ethics and character.

He said everyone around knew Butch by name even if they were just driving through.

“Almost every car we stop, even today, they ask, ‘Is Butch Kennedy still the chief over there? He gave me my first ticket,’” Beddingfield recounted stirring laughter throughout the council chambers.

Beddingfield said Kennedy has more than earned his retire-ment.

• Retiring(Continued from page 1)

Mayor Eric McIntyre and the Columbus City Council commended retiring Columbus Fire Chief Geoff Tennant Thursday, Dec. 16 for his decades of service to the community. Tennant retires effective Dec. 31.

“I want to be there to do what I can do to make sure every one of my folks go home.”

has expressed interest again in building a car business there. Payne’s initial interest was what sparked the town to review its zoning ordinance.

The town’s proposed TBD would restrict auto sales and boat services. The said prop-erty is within a proposed TBD section. Those uses would still be allowed in the town’s GBD, which is proposed to remain from Carolina Drive to the state line, as well as down U.S. 176 toward the valley.

Board of planning and ad-justment chair John Walters said any new zoning changes would apply to new construc-tion or changes to the property.

Current businesses would be grandfathered.

The board also proposed making changes to the permit-ted use table for the CBD, in-cluding ideas to possibly delete government offices, religious institutions and animal services as uses. The board discussed their hope of one day having a downtown area comprised of mostly retail and restaurants.

Some board members pro-posed restricting non-retail or restaurant businesses to only the second floor buildings in a couple of blocks downtown.

Board members asked town attorney Bailey Nager last week if creating a new district or an overlay would be best.

Nager said a separate district would allow town officials to

• District(Continued from page 1)

say which uses they want in the new district. He said over-lays typically have a theme, like Tryon’s current roadway protection overlay for land-scaping.

Other discussions included the possibility of restricting building sizes in the CBD and allowing for larger buildings in zoning district outside of downtown.

The board is working on a list of changes to the zoning ordinances, but decided last week to create the transitional business district first and de-cide which uses will be al-lowed there, then make needed amendments in other areas of the zoning ordinance.

The board determined the earliest a public hearing could

be held before town council will be in February.

Prior to a public hearing, notices of the proposed changes must be sent to all property owners and signs must be post-ed in the areas. The town is also required to advertise the public hearing for two consecutive weeks in the local newspaper, according to Nager.

Town council meets to-morrow night. The board of planning and adjustment re-cessed last week’s meeting until Thurs., Dec. 30 at 3 p.m. The next regular meeting is scheduled for Thurs., Jan. 13 at 4 p.m., but special meetings could occur throughout Janu-ary. All meetings are held in the Tryon Fire Department meeting room.

Christmas is a time for giving and Lady, White Oak of Tryon’s resident dog, and William, their resident cat, are joining forces to head up a food drive for the Foothills Humane Society. Lady, who was adopted from the Foothills Humane Society, wants people to know “although people donate many things to the shelter, they sometimes forget that something as simple as the gift of food is very important.” Donation boxes are located in the lobby at White Oak of Tryon and at Tryon IGA. Drop off your dry dog or cat food between now and Dec. 31. (photo submitted)

Starry Messenger

by Jim Cooper

Shortly after midnight this evening, in the “wee hours of the morning,” the full moon will enter earth’s long shadow and an eclipse of the moon will follow.

The darkest portion of the eclipse (when the moon is com-pletely immersed in shadow) will begin at 2:41 a.m.

At that time the moon will be almost directly overhead, an ideal position for comfort-able viewing if you have a lawn chair in which to recline.

Earth’s shadow will begin to encroach on the moon’s eastern limb at 1:33 a.m. and the eclipse will be partial for 68 minutes.

The total eclipse will then begin lasting 72 minutes after which time the earth’s shadow will being to depart from the moon’s western limb resulting in a second partial eclipse (a mirror image of the first), again lasting 68 minutes.

The eclipse event from begin-ning to end will thus last more than three hours.

A lunar eclipse occurs when the sun, earth and moon are aligned so that earth’s shadow crosses the face of the moon blocking sunlight from the moon’s surface.

Even at mid-eclipse the moon will remain faintly visible and

will not disappear from view entirely. This is because sunlight is bent around the earth’s edges by refraction, impressing all the sunrises and sunsets of earth back onto the moon.

The darkened moon will have a ghostly reddish aspect as a re-sult of this refracted light.

The night sky will grow pro-gressively dark-er as the eclipse deepens and more and more stars, previous-ly obscured by the bright light

of the full moon, will begin to appear making the outlines of the constellations easier to rec-ognize.

The eclipsed moon will be surrounded by the bright stars Betelgeu (in Orion), Castor and Pollux (in Gemini), Cappella (in Auriga) and Aldebaran (in Tau-rus) to name just a few.

The Pleiades and Hyades star clusters in the constellation Tau-rus (the bull) will be located just a few degrees to the west of the darkened moon.

View these clusters through binoculars for a sight you will never forget!

If you miss this eclipse it will be a long wait until the next one shows up in our area of the country – April 2014. So, hope for clear weather and set your alarm clock.

Lunar eclipse occurs tonight

Polk Wellness Center hosts ‘Handling Holiday Stress’ program at ICC Dec. 6

People at the “Handling Holiday Stress” panel discussion. (photo submitted)

On Monday, Dec. 6 at 5:30 p.m., Polk Wellness Center presented a “Handling Holiday Stress” panel dis-cussion at ICC-Polk in collaboration with Steps to HOPE and St. Luke’s Hospital. This community awareness event is the first in a “Wellness Se-ries” that Polk Wellness Center will present in the coming year.

The public event included a complimentary dinner, childcare and health screenings such as glucose and blood pressure checks performed by Allied Health stu-dents at ICC. Participants enjoyed pizza, fruit and vegetables in the festive lobby of ICC. Many of the refreshments were donated by Bi-Lo (Columbus), IGA, Nature’s Storehouse and Food Lion.

After dinner, attendees moved to the auditorium where the pan-elists began an informative and informal presentation about holi-day stress triggers and ways to manage them.

Polk Wellness Center panelists included therapist and administra-tor Jim Nagi, LCSW; therapist and clinical director Dr. Gordon Schneider; therapist Rob Fuller, LCSW-P; and Dr. Jeffrey Viar, physician and medical director.

Nagi started the discussion by posing a question: “If you could change one thing this Christmas, what would it be?” Some audience members said “money” and “having my son home for Christmas.” Those

answers led to Dr. Schneider’s helping attendees identify causes of holiday anxiety and depression (such as what we are missing at this time of year – money and family). He offered ways to prevent or less-en those symptoms that included the simple act of volunteering and helping others less fortunate to bring about a positive meaning to the holiday experience.

Fuller focused on children and depression, specifically how par-ents can recognize the symptoms of depression in children and teenagers that often differ from those of adults. Symptoms include irritability, anger and sleep dif-ficulties.

Dr. Viar discussed the impact of stress on the body, especially at holiday time when people have less sleep and eat carbohydrate-rich, sweet foods that can impact cho-lesterol, glucose levels and mood. Making healthier food choices, finding a minimum of a half hour three times of week to exercise; as well as getting in the sun were suggested as the best ways to stay healthy during this time of year.

Steps to HOPE case manager Cherie Wright offered insight about domestic abuse during the holiday season. She explained while do-mestic abuse usually increases during the holidays, statistics show most domestic abuse victims tend to stay with their abusers during the

holidays in an effort to create the “perfect holiday” or minimize stress on the family by leaving the home.

Dr. Mark Cornelius, a hospi-talist with St. Luke’s Hospital, wrapped up the discussion with hopeful insights for the New Year. Dr. Cornelius offered ways to start physically and mentally healthy habits once the food, drink and fatigue in December is over.

He also explained how the medical community is embracing the idea of a “three-legged stool” in which physicians not only treat the body and the mind, but also empha-size the importance of individuals nurturing the spirit. All three “legs” work together to create the best possible medical outcomes.

Dr. Schneider, clinical director of Polk Wellness Center, said of the center, “As clinicians, our goal is to have clients recognize the mind-body-spirit connection so they can eventually manage their own wellness.”

Polk Wellness Center is a non-profit community of providers offer-ing comprehensive health and well-ness services in an atmosphere that fosters respect for all served, regard-less of their ability to pay. Polk Well-ness Center uses a comprehensive, integrated model to provide primary care, mental health/substance abuse, prevention, education, wellness, and recovery support services.

Tryon Little Theater (TLT) is calling on the community for help in updating its logo. The organization recently announced a design contest to find a logo to be used on all correspondence and theater promotions.

Celebrating the past and look-ing forward to the future is how Tryon Little Theater approaches each season. Now in its 62nd season, TLT is committed to bringing first rate drama, com-edy and musicals to Western North Carolina and the Upstate of South Carolina. The logo should reflect this idea and en-thusiasm.

The design can be in color, but must also reproduce in black and white. It should also be adaptable to different sizes. The name “Tryon Little The-ater” must appear in the design. Digital submissions must be high resolution. Drawings are also accepted.

Mail disc or drawing to Tryon Little Theater, P.O. Box 654, Tryon, N.C. 28782. The deadline for submission is Feb. 1, 2011. Make sure your name, address, phone and email address are included with the design.

Tryon Little Theater’s board of directors will select the win-ner and reserves the right not to make a selection. The winner will be announced at the Febru-ary production of “Oliver!” and will receive two season tickets to the 2011-12 season.

Tryon Little Theater’s cur-rent logo is several decades old. About eight years ago, a rela-tively clear but small copy from a letterhead was scanned into a graphics system and attempts were made to recover what the logo looked like before copies of copies resulted in a degraded, fuzzy logo.

Now TLT is asking if you can design something more ap-propriate?

Singing for the Soldiers event raises nearly $3,000, collects nearly 40 boxes

The ninth Singing for the Soldiers event held over the last three years recently took place at the Tryon Fine Arts center. The events, which began in January ‘08 in Polk County, have col-lected thousands of pounds of items for troops in war zones.

Saturday, Nov. 13th’s event in Tryon was no exception. More than 1,500 pounds of items such as socks, footballs, snacks, personal hygene items and other small items were collected to make Christmas a little better for troops. Nearly $3,000 was collected through donations and an auction to ship the items as well as purchase other items.

Several businesses spon-sored the event, taking care of the exspenses so all items col-lected that night would go to the cause.

Music was provided from legendary Gospel Music Hall of Fame member Naomi Sego

Reader, the Green River Boys, gospel songwriter Greg Day, as well as J.J. Wadell.

Four chaplins were also in attendance, two of which (Capt.Mike Mcawley and Capt. Jay Clark) were on the receiving end of these collection efforts while they were based in Iraq.

ry Carney of Mill Spring and Deb Williamson of Columbus have been organizing these events three times per year at dif-frent locations in Polk County.

Donations of items or money to be sent to the troops may still be dropped off at WJFJ, located on Court Street in Columbus.
