Supt. Reed: Setting the record straight on land purchase Dear readers and Adair County citizens: I want to sincerely apologize for how one of my comments in last week's paper regarding my quote about purchasing the 13 acre adjoining tract of land from Mr. Sherman Wayne Burton may have come across to your readers. The main reasons stated for moving forward with the purchase were so that we would have enough land to build a much needed bus garage, and so that campus beautification can continue. I also mentioned the need for a "buffer zone" between our campus and the re-cycling operation run by the Burton family. It may have been construed that I did not appreciate recycling centers. This is certainly not the case. I sincerely appreciate the work the Burton family does in keeping discarded appliances, cars and metal scrap out of the waste stream. None of us want to go back to the days when materials were just tossed out into dumps and into streams. Besides the good the Burton operation does for the environment, their operation also provides jobs in our community. I/we appreciate the positive contributions made by this local business. Thanks for letting me set the record straight on my feelings about this local business and the overall good of recycling. - Alan W. Reed, Superintendent Adair County Schools, 1204 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY 42728 This story was posted on 2014-05-05 08:17:46
