Sycamore Springs: Snowplows took out fence, she writes She's taking the issue up with the county, but she is also writing to warn others of the danger of falling limbs - as well as snowplows - to all fencing, and to warn motorists that when snowplows haven't followed roadway, other vehicles may not know where solid roadbed is - a real safety hazard, she warns. Click on headline for complete story By Cynthia A Meyer News from Sycamore Springs With all the ice and snow of the last few days, it is a good idea for folks to check their fences for livestock. Be it a limb from a tree that has snapped under the weight of ice and snow or a county road truck taking out a fence. Livestock can, and will (even those that normally are quiet content to the confines of their humble abodes) can get loose, and go on an impromptu walkabout. Today I had to run down two of my senior horses who are normally quite content to stay on the property; however when unbeknownst to me, the county snow plow laid my fence down in several places, hence making a perfect opportunity for the Dynamic Duo to make a break for it, and explore without my consent or knowledge areas close to home. Sad thing is.. the fence which held my troupe in for the last 25 years is destroyed, between lack of funds to replace it, and means to get the fencing when it was discovered leaves me short of pasture space. With warmer weather on the horizon, once the sun starts hitting the trees in the next few days, ice and limbs will be snapping and falling making dangerous, if not deadly to be in the woods. I tried contact my magistrate to come out to see the job the road crew had plowed, and the driver even backed into my fence at one point, and never notified me my fencing was down. However he said he was snowed in and could not get out! ! ! (Imagine a magistrate being snowed in?) He has promised to get back with me on this and previous issues concerning the road crew, but still has no answers. Can someone PLEASE tell me which elected official I can contact concerning unresolved issues? Thank You... - Cynthia A Meyer PS ~ For anyone traveling on Chestnut Grove Road near Breeding PLEASE drive safely, the road crew plowed way to close to my fence leaving the opposite side of the road barely touched. I have marked my fence to the best of my ability, but it is very narrow. So PLEASE drive Safe ! ! !. This story was posted on 2016-01-23 19:06:24
