Public Hearing: Budget for Fiscal Year 2005/2006
Mayor Pinter opened the public hearing at 5:45 p.m.
Council conducted five budget workshops going over each line item.
Wade Reese, 70 Soco Road: Mr. Reese stated that he represents approximately 30 million dollars in motel/ hotel owners. In Mr. Reese’s opinion the problem with the 2005/2006 budget is the spending that took place in the 2004/2005 budget. Monies were spent on the festival grounds that were not budgeted, therefore the shortfall this year. Mr. Reese stated that he stands behind the board and is willing to do whatever it takes to move forward.
With no more comments from the floor, Mayor Pinter closed the public hearing at 5:50 p.m.
Alderman McElroy addressed the audience stating that Council has spent many hours reviewing the proposed budget. Staff was directed to present a budget with “no fat” and feels that a lean budget is what is being proposed. Alderman McElroy, like the other council members does not like having to raise taxes.
Alderman Taylor stated that last year the department heads did not participate in the budget process. Council appointed a budget committee, but the shortage of time, and lack of participation, affected the results. There was great hope that Ghost Town would sale and the tourist industry would observe an increase in business. The surrounding towns are “holding the line” due to the upcoming re-valuation. The Mountaineer mistakenly reported an increase of two cents rather than the three-cent increased tax rate. Several business owners have spoken with Alderman Taylor about the financial difficulty they are experiencing due to the lack of tourist. Alderman Taylor spoke of her surprise that there were not more comments from the community.
Alderman DeMeola expressing his concerns, also acknowledging the financial difficulty businesses are experiencing. The staff and Council have worked very long and hard on the proposed budget, presenting compelling factors, all in the interest of bettering the community.
Alderman Aldridge responded that he had missed one budget meeting during the entire process. Alderman Aldridge felt the Town should not look at the reopening of Ghost Town as a solution. If Ghost Town were to reopen, it would take two to three years to begin seeing tourism start to increase. The Town has not raised taxes in a long time. The Town even stepped back several years ago and lowered the tax rate. It is an unfortunate burden to carry, but the Town has to grow and the Town Government has to be pro-active. The Town must strive to find a medium for both businesses and the residential community. The Town is anticipating 200 to 250 new homes to come into the Maggie Valley within the near future. Alderman Aldridge stated that the Town needs to come up with creative ideas to bring activity to the Valley. “We will be better off in the long run.”
Alderman Taylor felt the money coming in through growth should be used for economic development rather than the budget grow.
The Board agrees that economic development is vital and are willing to appoint an economic commission.
Alderman McElroy stressed that fact that providing infrastructure encourages growth.
Mayor Pinter felt that Council should look at the Strategic Plan and set goals; all- the- while planning for the future rather than the upcoming year.
As for planning, Alderman McElroy reminded Council that this is the first time Maggie Valley has had a Capital Improvements Plan.
ALDERMAN MCELROY
MADE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE BUDGET AS PRESENTED.

MAYOR PINTER
REFRAINED FROM VOTING.
MOTION CARRIED.
Mayor Pinter explained that by not voting it would be considered an affirmative. Mayor Pinter felt this was the appropriate action due her absence during a portion of the budget workshops and out of respect to her Council that did attend the workshops. Mayor Pinter was absence because of illness in her family.
Public Hearing: Continuation of Solid Waste
Collection/ Consider Award of Contract: GDS
Mayor Pinter opened the floor for public comment at 6:05 p.m.
Mr. Don Printz, a resident living on Lisa Lane addressed Council opposing the continuation of garbage collection.
See Attachment 2
Bev & Otis Sizemore: opposes Solid Waste Collection
See Attachment 3
Jasay & Ann Ketchum: opposes Solid Waste Collection
See Attachment 4
Pat Tilley of 93 Nature’s Way addressed Council in support of garbage pick-up. Ms. Tilley’s health has declined over the last year, so garbage pick-up has been very helpful to her family. As for the fee, Ms. Tilley felt that it was “part of life”, she pays $13 per month in Raleigh for solid waste collection.
Manager Shepherd informed Council that several residents in Brannon Forest Subdivision want trash pick-up because it is a service generally expected within a municipality and it is a service that people pay for whether it is included with the monthly water and sewer statement or payable with property taxes.
Mr. John Frick, a Stoney Ridge Subdivision resident stated that part –time residents do not want the service adding that “this is suppose to be the land of the free” and the service should not be mandated.
With no further comments from the floor, Mayor Pinter closed the Public Hearing at 6:16 p.m.
Council acknowledged the difficulty of making a decision because are pros and cons to both sides.
The GDS Inc. bid is based on the number of people served. There is a lot more garbage collected in the summer due to part-time residents, vacation rentals, and residents having company. A fee of $7.60 per month is considerable low.
In regards to commercial solid waste collection, most businesses have long-term contracts with different companies. Commercial collection should remain as a free market.
Several people from the audience asked that garbage collection be put to a referendum.
Alderman Taylor felt that part of the problem was timing. Garbage collection on Mondays is difficult for renters because garbage has to sit through the weekend. Councilman Taylor went on to remind the Alderman that ¾’s of the questionnaires that were returned were against trash pick-up.
ALDERMAN MCELROY
MADE A MOTION TO ACCEPT THE BID FOR SOLID WASTE COLLECTION FROM GDS INC.
Alderman Aldridge admitted that there is a lot of controversy regarding the issue but also there are people that want the service, especially people that are not physically able to take their trash to the convenient center. Alderman Aldridge stated his interest in recycling and how recycling is “a way of life” in other locations.
Statistics show that where there is garbage pick-up service there is less trash along the roadsides. The commercial dumpsters are not overflowing with residential trash as often now.
Alderman DeMeola acknowledged Mr. Printz and his compelling argument. Councilman DeMeola stated that he wish there was a way to deal with the issue rather than discontinuing the service. At this late hour, it would be hard to discontinue the service. Alderman DeMeola asked that staff investigate the possibility of putting solid waste collection to a referendum when the contract expires.
Alderman Taylor felt there would never be a consensus. The garbage trunks destroying roads inside subdivisions disturb people.

Public Hearing: Future of the Zoning Board of
Adjustments
Mayor Pinter opened the public hearing at 6:57 p.m.
Wade Reese, 70 Soco Road, addressed the board stating the he felt the Zoning Board Chairman Jay Ring was out of control. “Mr. Ring told the town attorney that he had more knowledge about law than the attorney did in a public meeting. Mr. Ring hired an attorney to threaten the town with a lawsuit, swore in two people to sit on the board after the vote had been rescinded, has publicly talked about granting Jim Blyth a variance for high-density housing, and has been abusive to the town employees. Mr. Ring voted for a variance when he is the builder, which is a clear conflict of interest.”
Ron DeSimone, June bug Lane, stated that he is an ETJ member on the Zoning Board of Adjustments. Mr. DeSimone also represents the Haywood County Home Builders Association on political affairs. A separate impartial board is needed for people to have the opportunity to appeal. Maggie Valley needs two separate boards.
Robert Lindler, 178 Stoney Ridge, addressed Council to keep the Planning Board and the Zoning Board of Adjustments separate. The Aldermen voted to zone the Stoney Ridge area Residential 1 at the recommendation of the Planning Board. The area does not meet any of the Residential 1 standards therefore; several homeowners have had to come before the Zoning Board of Adjustments for variances to build carports/porches to their units. The Zoning Board members were able to make a reasonable request a reality for those homeowners.
Sue Kennedy, 186 Stoney Ridge Loop, stated that Maggie Valley needs a Zoning Board of Adjustments especially since the zoning of the last annexed area was poorly done. Ms. Kennedy submitted a petition with 47 signatures urging the Town Council to keep the Planning Board and the Zoning Board of Adjustments separate.
See attachment 5
John Frick, 194 Stoney Ridge Loop, stated that Maggie Valley needs a Zoning Board of Adjustments in order to get things resolved. The next step after the Zoning Board is a Court of Law.
Otis Sizemore addressed Mr. Reese’s earlier statement explaining that he was planning to build a duplex behind his business located on Soco Road. Mr. Sizemore was required to go before the Zoning Board for a special exception. Mr. Ring was not under contract or had any money changed hands. Mr. Ring offered to refrain from voting but the other board members felt there was no conflict of interest. Mr. Sizemore stated that he is a mason and challenged anyone saying he did anything improper.
Mayor Pinter added that if Chairman Ring had not had voted Mr. Sizemore would have still been granted the special exception by unanimous vote.
Mr. Ring addressed Council stating that he has no interest in personal gain. Mr. Ring wants an impartial, unbiased, Zoning Board of Adjustments. The Zoning Board has strived hard over the last five years to perform a job that citizens expect. The members do their due-diligence on each case that comes before them. The Board continues to educate themselves through reading materials, attending seminars, and watching training videos.
The Zoning Board has struggled to have a quorum since the inception of the board. In January Alderman McElroy attended a Zoning Board meeting and commended the board members. There was a disagreement about duties as stated in the ordinance. The Planning Board and Zoning Board had a joint meeting and after deliberation it was determined that the Zoning Board needed to relinquish that power. Therefore, the ordinance was revised and the Planning Board again reviewed and approved subdivisions.
As for swearing in Garrett Anderson and Connie Dennis, one or the other was present the night of the vote to appoint them and the Mayor congratulated the other person. The meeting in which the vote was rescinded was illegal. The clerk did not notify the appointees. Mr. Ring contended that the clerk has never sent formal notice. “A Quasi-Judicial Board is not to be manipulated.” Mr. Ring added that Tammy Brown and Saralyn Price were appointed to the Festival Board when they were not interviewed. Mr. Ring felt there was a lot of wrongdoing going on in Maggie Valley and now this had turned into a personal vendetta against him. Mr. Ring asked that Council let the Zoning Board of Adjustment continue as is, and conduct the Town’s business.
See attachment 6 from the Stoney Ridge Homeowners Association
Mayor Pinter closed the public hearing at 7:25 p.m.
Alderman McElroy stated that he had never been in favor of abolishing the Zoning Board. Councilman McElroy felt that if Chairman Ring had come to the board instead of going about things as he had, the situation would never have come to this.
Alderman DeMeola agreed, acknowledging that he too felt the boards should remain separate. A public hearing was needed so these issues can be addressed and resolved. Alderman DeMeola asked that the attorney advise them if the Zoning Board is a legal board right now.
Attorney Dickson responded that the appointments have been rescinded leaving the Zoning Board open to scrutiny. Attorney Dickson also felt that the meeting in which the vote was rescinded was a legal meeting.
Councilman DeMeola felt that it would be in the Town’s best interest to dissolve the Zoning Board and then re-appoint the members after the public hearing.
Alderman Taylor felt the Town would be left open to a lawsuit if such actions were taken. Alderman Taylor has not received any complaints about the Zoning Board. From listening to the tapes of the meetings, Alderman Taylor did not think Mr. Ring had been abusive to the employees.
Alderman Taylor asked the employees present, if they felt they had been abused.
Ms. Price spoke from the audience asking that the employees be left out of it.
Alderman Taylor withdrew her question. Alderman Taylor stated that she had been instructed by Alderman McElroy not to talk to the employees and not to call Attorney Dickson but it appears that the other board members have had contact with the Attorney and talked with the employees.
Alderman Aldridge felt there are issues that need to be addressed among the boards. “The Town can not continue to be torn apart like this.”

ALDRIDGE MADE A MOTION TO SCHEDULE
A MEETING WITH THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT TO DISCUSS ISSUES AND TRY TO RESOLVE THE

Mr. Byrd asked that a public hearing to be scheduled for the newly amended subdivision ordinance. The Planning Board conducted an informational meeting to gather input from the public prior to bringing the amendments to Council. No one attended the advertised meeting.
Mr. Byrd distributed copies of the proposed subdivision ordinance
Several Planning Board members attended a training session that covered several informative topics.

Request to use the Festival Grounds: Storm in the

Request to use the Festival Grounds: Spring Farm Fest
Mr. Wade Reese addressed Council stating that the PRFAC has approved both events.
Storm in the Mountains is a non-profit organization educating people through living history. Storm in the Mountains and the Spring Farm Fest paid the $100 application fee.
Farm Fest (tractor show) representatives were happy to be in Maggie Valley and donated a refrigerator and a pop corn maker to the Town.
Council had discussed allowing each non-profit organization three events with a 50/50 spilt of the profits. Fifty percent of zero is zero. Alderman Aldridge felt it better to have something happening on the grounds rather than the area set vacant.
ALDERMAN ALDRIDGE
MADE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE EVENTS ON A 50/50 SPLIT.

Public Comment
Dan Massey addressed the Board asking why the Board is considering putting lighting on the festival grounds when last years expenditures are the reason the taxes were raised three cents this year.
Alderman Taylor responded that Mr. Reese’s numbers were not a direct correlation with the festival grounds. The Town has a balanced budget and will continue to have a balanced budget. Alderman Taylor added that lighting or a building was not budgeted for in this fiscal year. The Town Hall needs space for offices and records storage before some of the other issues can be addressed at the festival grounds.
Patricia Tilley addressed Council stating that she wants something for the three-cent tax increase. The Town does nothing for Valley Creek Run Subdivision.
