Jeanie, Sorry to have to bother you. We have a Subdivision coming up for vote by the Floyd Co. Zoning Board Monday night at 6 PM EDT. (Tonight) The lady who is trying to find out something about the "Girdner' Pioneer cemetery, Dolly Jenkins contacted me to see if I could find out if they had approval to build around it, and fence it, from The DNR and the DHPA. The cemetery dating back to 1864 is included in the Plat of 178 houses on a little over 100 acres. They have the cemetery on the Map, but they are building the waste water plant next to the cemetery. The biggest problem is, Have they applied for permission to put the plant next to the cemetery, and if they haven't, why not. Does the DNR or the DHPA care about this cemetery enough to ask for a description of what they have planned? They just announced they were bringing it up this Monday (Again) They will have a Treatment building and sewage lines all around the cemetery. Do they have to file a plan as to what they are planning for the cemetery, since they definitely will be installing lines well within the 100 ft. zone? Every one down here in Floyd Co. claim to know nothing about the Law until I bring it up. If the DNR and the DHPA don't care, I and others may have Pickets and the Louisville Ky. TV stations, and the Louisville Courier Newspaper covering the work when they start the building of any kind when they are within 100 ft of the cemetery, and especially when they start the waste treatment plant. Lets see if anyone cares, or does the Law mean nothing. Can you check and tell me before 4:30 EDT if they have filed anything, or if they need to. This is screwed up bad. One of the zoning board members owns the ground. I don't care what they build, nor how many, I WORRY ABOUT THE CEMETERY. It's not the board members family. I don't ask for much, but this needs attention bad. Hoping to hear one way or another, Do I have a Leg to stand on. ??? Thank you for at least reading this, Hope you can get me an answer today. I appreciate your help, and I understand your position. [email protected] Jack E. Briles Sr. Po Box 444 New Albany, In 47151-0444 (812)282-6585 Jack
