Polk, towns restart joint water meetings First meeting since September set for tomorrowby Leah Justice

After a break of almost four months, elected officials from Columbus, Polk County, Saluda and Tryon will meet again tomor-row, Tuesday, Jan. 11.

The meeting, sponsored by the City of Saluda, will be held at

Columbus Town Hall at 7 p.m. This will be the group’s fourth

joint meeting since last June, when Columbus Town Council asked the other towns and the county to begin discussing ways to consolidate services and re-sources.

The meetings quickly turned to discussing the creation of a joint water authority.

The group invited the Tucka-seigee Water and Sewer Author-

ity (TWSA) to last year’s August meeting. TWSA was created through a similar joint effort in Jackson County, N.C.

TWSA officials told Polk County and the towns the process was difficult but well worth the effort in the end.

During the most recent joint meeting last September, Colum-bus officials expressed concern

When Ted Owens was sworn in as Polk County commissioner in December, he dedicated his service to the late Earl Foy, who served as county commissioner from 1984 to 1986 and died in September, 2010. During the commissioners meeting in December, Owens presented flowers and photographs to Foy’s wife, Ruth, in honor of her late husband’s service to the county. (photo by Leah Justice)

that a joint water and/or sewer authority may not be in its best interest right now because of the town’s dependence on water revenue. Columbus council members said water is the town’s “lifeline.” Giving it up, they said, would mean the town would have to raise taxes in order to survive and that’s not something Columbus of-ficials said they want to do.

The group decided to invite town officials from Jackson County to the Jan. 11 meet-ing to hear how losing water and sewer service affected the towns involved in the TWSA water authority, which include Dillsboro, Sylva and Webster. It was not known as of Friday, Jan. 7 whether Dillsboro, Syl-va and Webster officials will attend the Jan. 11 meeting.

Polk County and Tryon of-ficials have expressed strong desire during recent meetings to combine water services at least.

During the September meeting, Columbus, Polk County, Saluda and Tryon presented information about their water systems, including their assets, water rates, num-ber of customers and miles of water lines.

The towns and county spent a couple of years meeting to work on a joint water author-ity but failed to agree on terms back in 2002.

Polk County recently began its own system by contracting with the Broad River Water Authority and Inman Cam-pobello Water District, which ran a water line joining their systems through Green Creek and gave ownership to Polk County. Polk has extended service off that line for a couple of years.

The county also purchased Lake Adger in recent years to use as a future water source for the county, with plans to

construct a water plant on transfer station property in Mill Spring. The county cur-rently has no debt for its water infrastructure as it used its fund balance to purchase Lake Adger for $1.6 million.

Columbus, Saluda and Try-on created a back-up system among one another by obtain-ing a grant to run a water line between Saluda and Tryon and placing a reverse valve on an existing Columbus/Tryon water line so both entities can exchange water. Previously, water could be exchanged only from Tryon to Columbus. The towns’ system enables the three entities to exchange water from Colum-bus to Asheville or in reverse, if needed.

Columbus depends on four wells currently to produce wa-ter and has a fifth well that of-ficials have discussed bringing online. Columbus currently has more than $3 million of debt for both its water and sewer systems. Columbus is also currently considering up-grading its sewer plant, with estimates topping $3 million.

Columbus’ inside water and sewer rates are the cheapest in the county; it is the only area town whose base water rate is under $20 per month. Columbus’ inside residential base water rate is $16.65 per month, compared to Saluda’s, the highest, at $36.86 per month, Tryon’s at $22.55 per month and the county’s at $20.16 per month.

Tryon depends on Lake La-nier as its main water source and is currently completing upgrades to the town’s water plant to allow the town to use a former mountain water source in addition to Lake La-nier. Tryon currently has more than $5 million of debt for its water and sewer systems.

Saluda purchases its water from the City of Henderson-

ville. The town recently com-pleted a rebuild of its sewer plant that was funded by FEMA following damage from hurri-canes. Saluda officials in Septem-ber did not provide total debt for

its water and sewer systems, but budgeted $82,960 worth of debt service this fiscal year.

According to county and town officials, the gap between the Sep-tember meeting and this week’s meeting was because of schedul-ing conflicts caused by the elec-tion and the holiday season.

UDO draft adds new environmental regulations

The Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) committee continues to work on a new uni-fied ordinance, which combines all of the Polk County land use ordinances into one ordinance and integrates the new concepts and ideas from the Comprehen-sive Land Use Plan approved by the board of commissioners earlier this year.

Combining this information into one ordinance will make it easier for citizens and officials to review and implement the regulations. Duplication of infor-mation has been eliminated and a common source of definitions is referenced for all regulations.

During the meeting on Thurs-day, Nov. 18, Dale Holland of Holland Consulting Planners gave the committee an overview of the major points of the initial draft of the UDO.

The following ordinances were merged into a single ordi-nance:

• Zoning ordinance• Mountain and ridgeline pro-

tective ordinance• Subdivision ordinance• Adult entertainment ordi-

nance• Sign ordinance• Junkyard ordinance • Tower ordinanceEnvironmental regulations are

the most significant new addition incorporated in the draft.

Other significant new ele-ments include:

• Detailed provisions dealing with legislative and quasi-judicial proceedings by both the planning board and the zoning board of adjustment

• Revisions to the develop-ment review process

• Performance standards that must be met with respect to all uses other than single family dwellings

• Landscaping, buffering and screening requirements for com-mercial development

Key changes to consider in-clude the following:

• New major subdivisions would be treated as conditional uses, requiring the planning board, in quasi-judicial proceedings, to establish that specified standards have been met. This will permit landowners in the vicinity of a proposed major subdivision to participate in the proceedings and express their views concerning the proposed development.

• White Oak and Cooper Gap townships, which are not zoned, would remain ”open districts.” The only restrictions on land use would be the conditional use approval re-quirement for major subdivisions.

• Building design standards would be established for non-residential developments within 1,000 feet of federal or North Carolina highways but not second-ary roads.

• “Dark sky” outdoor lighting standards would govern in the case of new major subdivisions and commercial developments.

• Environmental impact as-sessments of varying content would be required in the case of major subdivision and commercial developments depending on the degree of impact measured by area of ground disturbance, building

footprints, number of dwelling units and other factors.

The draft UDO is a starting point for review and discussion

by the committee. The review process is expected to take more than 12 months and is a long way from being finalized.

The committee is currently studying the ordinance and will meet regularly to step through the

draft article by article. The UDO committee’s current assignment is to submit written comments on a proposed draft of the county permitted use table. The comments will be collated and reviewed at the committee’s next meeting to

be held Thursday, Jan. 20 at the Polk County Library.

All UDO meetings are open to the public and public comments are encouraged and welcome.

Watson accepts Edward Jones limited partnership,  Turner HD Media opens studio at Polk ag center

Sue Watson, an Edward Jones financial advisor in Polk County, has accepted an invitation to in-crease her limited partner holdings in The Jones Financial Cos., the holding company for the St. Louis-based financial services firm.

Watson joined Edward Jones in 1987 and has served investors in Polk County for the past five years. In addition, she is active in several local groups, including Kiwanis.

Edward Jones currently em-ploys more than 40,000 associates in all 50 states and through its affiliate in Canada. Under the cur-rent partnership offering, 16,000 associates received initial limited partnership offerings or were in-vited to increase their existing

ownership in the firm.“I am honored to be invited

to increase my ownership in the firm,” said Watson. “I enjoy working for Edward Jones, and I am very proud of the way we do business and the way we treat our clients.”

J a m e s D . Weddle, the firm’s managing partner, said, “Edward Jones is employee-owned. We believe one of the best ways to reward outstanding associates is to offer them an opportunity to share in the ownership of the firm they help build. I’m pleased to say that this associate certainly deserves the limited partnership offering.”

The Jones Financial Cos. was created in 1987 to enable the firm to expand into new business areas while allowing it to remain a part-nership. The Jones Financial Cos.

owns Edward D. Jones & Co. LP, which operates under the trade name Edward Jones,

EDJ Leasing Co., the Edward Jones Trust Co. and its interna-tional financial services subsid-iary, Edward Jones Candada.

Edward Jones was ranked number 2 on “Fortune” maga-zine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” in 2010. For more information, check www.ed-wardjones.com or its recruiting

‘Always… Patsy Cline’ opens January 14

Spartanburg Little Theatre’s “Always… Patsy Cline” opens Friday, Jan. 14 at the David Reid Theatre at the Chapman Cultural Center in Spartan-burg.

The show, a true story based on the relationship that devel-oped between Cline, a singer who produced some of the most recognizable songs in American music history, and a devoted fan, Louise Seger, puts the spotlight not only on the songs that Cline made famous but also on the personal story behind the songs.

Sisters Nita Biven and Becky Koon, both natives of Spartan-burg, bring years of musical and theater experience to the stage as they pay tribute to Cline’s musical career. The narrative for the show is supplied by Seger (Koon) as she draws from letters that Cline wrote to her after their meeting in a Texas honky-tonk in 1961 until the singer’s tragic death in a plane crash in 1963.

The narrative is punctuated

by Cline (Biven) singing the songs that she made famous as well as some of her lesser-known recordings, 27 songs in all. “I Fall to Pieces,” “Walkin’ After Midnight,” “Sweet Dreams” and “Crazy” introduce the audience to the sound that made Cline both a queen of country music and a crossover favorite.

“Always… Patsy Cline,” after a successful off-Broadway run, has been performed throughout the country, becoming one of the most produced musicals in the United States, and has toured Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom.

“Always… Patsy Cline” will be performed Jan. 14 - 16 and 21 - 23, with shows Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 3 p.m. For tickets, call the Chap-man Cultural Center box office, 864-542-ARTS (2787).

For information, contact the theater office, located at 200 East St. John St., 864-585-8278, or www.spartanburglittletheatre.org.

Karen Eulene Jackson

Karen Eulene Jackson, joined her heavenly host of angels and God Thursday, Jan. 6, 2011 after a long battle with cancer. She died in her home where she had lived for 57 years.

A lifelong resident of Polk County, she was the daughter of Callie Holmes Jackson and the late Troy L. Jackson. She was a member of Green Creek First Baptist Church.

Surviving are two broth-ers, Barry Jackson (Elyse) and Benny Jackson (Brenda); two sisters, Sharon Hughes (Jack) and Wanda J. Mortensen, all of Green Creek. Also surviving are 13 nieces and nephews and 37 great-nieces and nephews, whom she loved to babysit. She was predeceased by her pater-nal grandparents, Clarence and Solena Jackson, and maternal grandparents, John and Eula Hampton Holmes.

Karen loved her Lord Jesus, Green Creek Baptist Church, and her pastor, Allen McKinney. She loved music, to sing in church, her special Sunday school class and teacher. In earlier years, she loved to go to Polk Vocational Services with her special jobs. She attended special education classes in Green Creek and

Obituaries reading classes at Isothermal Community College.

She retired from Polk Vo-cational Services after 34 years and loved going to the Meeting Place #2 to play bingo. She had a happy, well-rounded life despite her challenges. Karen loved for her brothers to tease her, travel-ing and eating out. She was a social person who knew most people in Polk County; if not; she made it a point to meet them.

The family wishes to thank Gibbs Cancer Center and Caro-lina Cancer Center for their care and most of all, the friends and church family for their prayers and gifts. Also thank you to our pastor for watching over her so faithfully. Our dear little “feisty” gal is gone to the best Holiday Inn in the whole universe.

Funeral services were held at 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 9, 2011 in Green Creek First Baptist Church, with Rev. Allen McK-inney and Rev. Shane Jackson officiating.

Burial followed in the church cemetery.

IRS kicks off 2011 tax season with extended April 18 deadline

The Internal Revenue Service recently opened the 2011 tax fil-ing season by announcing that taxpayers have until Apr. 18 to file their tax returns. The IRS reminded taxpayers impacted by recent tax law changes that using e-file is the best way to ensure accurate tax returns and get faster refunds.

Taxpayers will have until Monday, Apr. 18, to file their 2010 tax returns and pay any tax due because Emancipation Day, a holiday observed in the District of Columbia, falls this year on Friday, Apr. 15. By law, District of Columbia holidays impact tax deadlines in the same way that federal holidays do; therefore, all taxpayers will have three extra days to file this year. Taxpayers requesting an extension will have until Oct. 17 to file their 2010 tax returns.

The IRS expects to receive more than 140 million individual tax returns this year, with most of those being filed by the Apr. 18 deadline.

The IRS also cautioned tax-payers with foreign accounts to properly report income from these accounts and file the ap-propriate forms on time to avoid stiff penalties.

“The IRS has made important strides at stopping tax avoidance using offshore accounts,” said IRS Commissioner Doug Shul-man. “We continue to focus on offshore tax compliance and people with offshore accounts need to pay taxes on income from those accounts.”

The IRS also reminded tax professionals preparing returns for a fee that this is the first year that they must have a Pre-parer Tax Identification Number (PTIN). Tax return preparers should register immediately us-ing the new PTIN sign-up system available through www.IRS.gov/taxpros.

Who must wait to file

For most taxpayers, the 2011 tax filing season starts on sched-ule. However, tax law changes enacted by Congress and signed by President Obama in December mean some people need to wait until mid- to late February to file their tax returns in order to give the IRS time to reprogram its processing systems.

Some taxpayers – including those who itemize deductions on Form 1040 Schedule A – will need to wait to file. This includes taxpayers impacted by any of three tax provisions that expired at the end of 2009 and were renewed by the Tax Relief, Un-employment Insurance Reautho-rization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 enacted Dec. 17. Those who need to wait to file include:

• Taxpayers claiming itemized deductions on Schedule A. Item-ized deductions include mortgage interest, charitable deductions, medical and dental expenses as well as state and local taxes (add link to Schedule A). In addition, itemized deductions include the state and local general sales tax deduction that was also extended and which primarily benefits people living in areas without state and local income taxes. Because of late Congressional action to enact tax law changes, anyone who itemizes and files a Schedule A will need to wait to file until mid- to late February.

• Taxpayers claiming the higher education tuition and fees deduction. This deduction for parents and students – cover-ing up to $4,000 of tuition and fees paid to a post-secondary institution – is claimed on Form 8917. However, the IRS em-phasized that there will be no delays for millions of parents and students who claim other education credits, including the American Opportunity Tax Credit extended last month and the Lifetime Learning Credit.

• Taxpayers claiming the

educator expense deduction. This deduction is for kindergar-ten through grade 12 educators with out-of-pocket classroom expenses of up to $250. The educator expense deduction is claimed on Form 1040, Line 23 and Form 1040A, Line 16.

In addition to extending those tax deductions for 2010, the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization and Job Creation Act also extended those deductions for 2011 and a number of other tax deductions and credits for 2011 and 2012 such as the American Opportu-nity Tax Credit and the modified Child Tax Credit, which help families pay for college and other child-related expenses. The act also provides various job creation and investment incentives including 100 percent expensing and a two-percent payroll tax reduction for 2011. Those changes have no effect on the 2011 filing season.

The IRS will announce a specific date in the near future when it can start processing tax returns impacted by the recent tax law changes. In the interim, taxpayers affected by these tax law changes can start working on their tax returns, but they should not submit their returns until IRS systems are ready to process the new tax law chang-es. Additional information will be available at www.IRS.gov.

For taxpayers who must wait before filing, the delay affects both paper filers and electronic filers. The IRS urges taxpayers to use e-file instead of paper tax forms to minimize confusion over the recent tax law changes and ensure accurate tax returns.

Except for those facing a de-lay, the IRS will begin accepting e-file and Free File returns on Jan. 14. Additional details about e-file and Free File will be an-nounced later this month.

The Bird Box

by Simon Thompson

Coffee is delicious and for some of us, an essential start to the day.

And on a cold winter morn-ing, the smell of coffee entices some of us to leave the womb-like qualities of our comfortable beds! But even the cup of java that we drink every morning is not without its problems.

Just think about where this coffee comes from. It’s the same all over the world: crops that are being grown for human use are modified, crossed and re-fined to obtain higher yields, stronger resis-tance to pests and c l ima t i c conditions, and a shorter field-to-table time.

Now this modification of plant life has spread into coffee plantations with a detrimental effect on many of our migratory songbirds.

Traditionally, coffee was grown under a canopy of trees, giving it protection from the sun and allowing for a lower pesticide and fungicide application rate.

Now, with the introduction throughout Latin America of new varieties of coffee that do not re-quire shade, our bird populations are being adversely affected in their man-made winter homes on coffee farms.

This is particularly signifi-cant in many areas of Central

America, where much of the native forest vegetation is now gone, restricting many wintering birds to these traditional shaded coffee farms.

According to the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center, shaded coffee farms have become the last refuge for many of our migratory birds.

How does this man-made habitat help birds? Shade grown coffee preserves migratory bird habitats, maintains native tree

canopy, sup-ports rainforest preservat ion, cultivates nec-essary biodiver-sity and protects endangered bird species.

It is also benefits people by preserving the local ecology, and creating healthier farms by reducing the need for pesticides and herbicides, at the same time producing long-term economic benefits for coffee farmers.

But how can we modern cof-fee consumers affect how coffee is grown? Despite the fact that business usually drives what we do, it is possible for people to make a difference, and in many areas of the country, concerned citizens are demanding shade grown coffee as an alternative to coffee grown by modern, destruc-tive farming methods.

You can make your wishes known wherever you purchase

coffee. Also many birding tour companies are working with lo-cal shade coffee farms and using them as birding destinations.

We are teaming up with the Cerulean Warbler Reserve in San Vicente, Colombia where Canada and Cerulean Warblers and many other species spend the winter months.

I have now visited this beauti-ful farm several times and each time I am impressed by the num-ber of birds wintering within the shade trees on the plantation.

There are several new coffee importers and local entrepreneurs that promote organically grown and shade coffees and this seem-ingly fringe side of the coffee market happens to be the fastest growing aspect of the coffee business.

This has all happened because people care about birds, the envi-ronment and coffee. It seems that we may be able to have our coffee and drink it too.

He and Chris also own and operate the Asheville Wild Birds Unlimited Store. For more in-formation on any of the birding activities in the area, drop by the store or check his website at www.asheville.wbu.com

Thigpens visit Beneficial Foods to talk about nutrition, exercise

January is a month of begin-nings. For many who resolve to bring change in the New Year, the focus is on continuing or improving overall health and well-being.

Tim Thigpen, a Greenville business owner, visited Ben-eficial Foods on the Adawehi Institute campus in Columbus with his son to discuss elements of their family’s commitment to lifestyle choices that benefit their health and athletic perfor-mance.

This story of dedicated run-ners Thigpen and his nine-year-old son, T.J., draws attention to the value of exercising as a family (or with a “buddy”) and eating a healthy, high-quality diet. Thigpen met members of the Beneficial Foods team when he participated in the re-cent Tuesday School’s 5K race (about 3.1 miles).

In an interview at Beneficial Foods, one of the race’s co-sponsors, Thigpen said, over the last 10 years, aside from the fact that he moved from the 40-something age group to the 50-something group, only one other factor changed significant-ly. The big change was that he began a consistent emphasis on fresh, unprocessed, natural food in his family’s diet. He says he avoids processed foods and eats organic fruits and vegetables, wild caught fish, and nutrient rich grains.

During their visit, the Thig-pens talked with Robby Booth, head of the bakery at Beneficial Foods and also a runner. Booth had this to say about healthy car-bohydrates: “Whole grain breads are loaded with fiber and nutri-ents, as opposed to white flour breads, which are essentially sugar disguised as a starch.”

Thigpen said nutrition, exer-cise, and parenting are emerg-ing as avenues to improved health for children and families. Healthy alternative foods are

now readily avail-able that were not so accessible a few years ago.

Over the last 30 years, childhood obesity in the Unit-ed States has more than tripled, Thigpen said. In 2008, the prevalence of obe-sity was estimated at 15.6 percent among 6- to 11-year-olds and was 18 per-cent among 12 to 19-year-olds. Based on 2007 survey data, 85 percent of North Carolina teens eat fewer than the rec-ommended fruits and vegetables each day. About 57 percent of North Carolina teens do not get enough physical exercise and 35 percent watch three or more hours of television each day.

Thigpen says he enjoys coaching his son on nutrition and exercise. He talks to T.J. about how his own race perfor-mance has improved, although he is getting older. Thigpen at-tributes his ability to shave off minutes from his race times to his healthy diet.

A life-long runner, Thigpen ran in the 21-minute range in 5K races during most of his 40s. On Jan. 8, 2008, he ran the YMCA Travelers Rest, S.C., New Year’s Resolution 5K at 21:07, finishing first in his age group and 10th overall.

A year later, after further im-proving his nutritional program, his time was 19:36 when he ran the same race, same course, but a year older.

On Jan. 22, 2005, he ran the Race for the Grasshopper 5K held at Cowpens National Battlefield at 20:55. Four years later (from age 47 to 51), he ran the same race and course on Jan. 10, 2009, at 19:11. Thigpen said, “My next

goal is to get into the 18s!”T.J., the younger Thigpen, is

eating and running in his father’s footsteps. T.J. has won first place in four of the five races he ran from June through August in 2010. His first place wins were in “10 and under” and “12 and under” age groups. T.J.’s second place finish during this time was in the “15 and under” age group on July 31 in the Folkmoot 5K in Waynesville, where he came across the finish line at 23:08.

In September at the Tri the Ridge Youth Triathlon in Pick-ens, SC, T.J. finished first with a time of 11:23. The second place winner was not even close at 14:10.

T.J. said he also understands that his nutritional program, con-sisting of fresh fruits, vegetables, complex carbohydrates and pro-teins high in Omega-3s, keeps him healthy and competitive.
