The Columbia-Adair County Utilities Board held its first meeting with newly elected chair Wid Harris presiding on Thursday, May 12, 2016. During the meeting a vote was taken to put the Burkesville Street project back into play, with Stotts Construction Company as the contractor and Monarch Engineering continuing as engineers, as originally agreed.

And the board received an update on the Lindsey Wilson College Water Tower Renovation from General Manager Lenny Stone, who said that work will begin in a matter of a few days, with a pre-construction conference set for 1pmCT, Friday, May 20, 2016, between CAUD officials and Huffman Tank & Tower of Albany, KY, the low bidders on the job.

Looking for Mountain Laurel, but Rhodendron does just fine



2016-05-13 - Green River Lake Visitors Center, 544 Lake Road, Campbellsville, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com (c).
Linda had hoped to see Mountain Laurel in bloom at the Green River Lake Visitors Center, as it often is at this time of the year, but on May 9, 2016, it apparently was too early. However, the giant rhodendren was in full bloom, and on the far side, out of sight, the azalea was beautiful. Best of all, there were school kids enjoying an outing there. The music of their excited chatter testified to the value of the center for years to come. Most, but not enough area residents realize what a great resource the visitors center is. It's less than three miles from Coburg, in northern Adair County, KY. A great place to spend a Saturday, walk to the trail to the point of the peninsula, and do a Mountain Laurel search. Green River Dam is across the lake, in the center background. - EW
