7 154 Edgefield Road <br />Concord, NC 28025 <br />May 4, 1998 <br /> <br />Mr. J. A. Hough <br />District Engineer <br />N.C. Department of Transportation <br />Division of Highways <br />615 Concord Road <br />Albemarle, NC 28001 <br /> <br />Re: Your Letter of April 28, 1998, Regarding Paving of Edgefield Road in Cabarrus County <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Hough: <br /> <br />I am curious about the timing of your letter regarding the subject road. You advised us to ask the <br />Cabarms County.Commission to reverse itself, and re, move Edgefield Road from the list of roads <br />approved for paving. You went to the Commission requesting their approval on April 20, 1998. <br />Prior to your-appearance before the commissioners, you did not.advise us of your intent to go to <br />request their approval for the paving. <br /> <br />Nor did you advise the Commission, on April 20;-that the majority of property owne[s, on <br />Edgefield Road objected to thepaving. Youhad~our signed~Ja~mndgoralmOst~se, xten ~,_dl' . <br />months before you appearance before the Cabarms County Commission. Why were neither the <br />Commission norlhe residentsofEdgefield RoadadxtisedJoe~re:themeeting~f-th~matters?' ~ · ' <br /> <br />Your letter of April 28 advised us to act quickly. It seems to me that little action would be <br />necessary ifx~e had been advised.of your plans lo-go to the Cabarrus-County Commission. Also, <br />if the Commission had been fully informed of our objections, it is unlikely that they would have so <br />readily approved-the paving, _a_nd ltley ~ould aot haxtelo-cMLapub!ic hearing now. <br /> <br />Another question that arouses my curiosity is the fact that you have stated in telephone <br />conversationsxhatalthough only-amajofity.of residents_need petifionlo have the mad paxted, 100 <br />percent of the residents must oppose paving to stop it. This does not appear democratic. <br /> <br />The people that ha~,~ ow:ned property_framing.on ~dg~fielcl Road_the longest ~ret tho~ who <br />oppose paving, while the four property owners who want the road paved are relative new comers <br />to EdgefieldRoadfromthedty.
