Council Finds
Demand Up
Meeting demands and setting limits on Boiling
Springs’ water and sewage systems kept town council
busy during most of last Tuesday night’s meeting
Sept. 1.
Within two hours council heard two requests to
annex for water and sewage service; asked for
reports on the new town well and the condition of the
town’s sewer lines; and accepted the donation of a
private water line located outside the city. These
demands and responses for new service mean,
according to councilman John Washburn, that
“we’re in a conservation period.’’
Requests for new service so taxed the town’s
systems, Washburn said, that “some months ago the
city set a policy at the present time of not providing
service to anyone outside the city limits. We’re not
extending water or sewage.’’
Council then turned down the request by Garland
Humphries who lives outside city limits to connect
onto water and -ewer service. Only annexed areas
may hook up, said Washburn and councilman Max
Hamrick. Hamrick then explained to Humphries how
to go about asking for annexation.
Earlier council had approved annexation of land
owned by Lula Patrick for a proposed apartment
complex. First, however, the council asked for, and
got, a promise to help with utilities and sewers at the
site.
Councilman Marion Packard then reported success
with drilling a new town well on DeHart Drive. He hit
water at 55 feet. “I never saw such clear, cold water
in my life,” Packard said. “Wasn’t it beautiful?”
In other business, council:
-awarded a contract ot Asphalt Paving, Inc., of
Shelby for resurfacing nine streets and 26 manhole
covers at about 11,000 feet. Asphalt Paving was the
low bidder at $49,409.50, less $5,000 than the next
lowest bidder.
-accepted from Don McSwain his six-inch water line
located outside city limits on Toney Street.
-heard John Washburn’s report on the Division of
Environmental Management’s continuing appraisal
of the town’s sewer lines.
-listened to Harold Flippen, a resident on Spring
Street, who told of motorists driving through his
neighborhood of smedl children “with no regard for
safe speed.” Flippen asked for speed bumps to be
laid down; said Max Hamrickj “if it’s needed J’m not
opposed.” Councilmen Marion Packard and Albert
Glenn were assigned to check out the. need,
-announced taking three applications for the open job
,^of chief_pf Dolice,
-went into closed session at the request of Eddie
Walker “to discuss city personnel”. Walker talked
with the council about 20 minutes, then left. Council
remained in closed session about 15 minutes more,
then reopened.
Accj)rding to a council member. Walker made
charges ot misconduct against a city employee. The
council considered the charges insupportable. The
councilman asked not to be identified.
Was that a mouse?

This Place, That Time
About 30 minutes after an
electrical storm passed over
Cleveland County late Sunday
night. Gene and Joyce Ham
rick woke up in their bedroom
at 113 Holly Hill Road to the
cry of “Daddy, fire! Daddy,
fire!’’ Lightning had struck
the Hamrick house setting it
on fire.
“As near as we can
determine lightning was the
cause of it,’’ fireman Randall
McSwain said Monday night.
“We figure it struck wiring in
the utility room, and the
wiring set the wood in the
paneling on fire.’’
Both the utility room and the
■ bedroom next to it were
destroyed by the fire, said
Chief Don McSwain. No one
was injured in the blaze, but
damage to the house was set
as high as $20,000.
Asleep in the bedroom next
to the fire were the Hamrick’s
son Mitchell, 18, and his
friend Johnny Anthony, 18. “I
credit Johnny with saving our
lives,’’ Mrs. Hamrick said.
“Both my husband and I are
heavy sleepers,’’ she explain
ed. “Johnny is a light sleeper,
and he woke up choaking from
the smoke. He got us up when
we might have slept until it
was too.late.’’
The boys woke up Mitchell’s
sister, Pam, 20, and her
overnight guest. Penny
Moore, 18. The four young
people then got the Hamricks
out of bed and tried to call the
fire department. The line was
dead.
They ran across the street
and called from a neighbor’s
house, Gail Guffey. Boiling
Springs City Fire Department
answered the call at 5:22 a.m.
Monday with assistance from
the rural department. Chief
McSwain estimated 20 men
worked half an hour with six
fire trucks to extinguish the
blaze.
