Mr. Brian Shelton, Mayor of Rosman, has requested that the Board of Education allow the Town of Rosman to take over the pump station located at the corner of Old Rosman Highway and Ashe Road. The Board currently maintains the equipment. The Town would begin maintenance of the pump station if the Board agrees.
Mr. Barger will make a recommendation and answer any questions you may have.
If the Board agrees to the Town’s request, a motion would be in order to authorize Mr. Barger to proceed with an easement for the pump station.
