They want no cutting or land disturbance within 100 feet of a stream. <\/p>\n<p>So here are some of the things that I can think of that couldn&#8217;t be done under the new regulations. A person couldn&#8217;t cut brush to improve their view if the brush was along a stream. This would affect many in Huletts including the line of houses across from the tennis courts. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hulettscurrent.com\/index.php\/archives\/876\" target=\"_blank\">The new green sign that says &#8220;Village Green&#8221;<\/a> wouldn&#8217;t have been put in this past winter because it would have been disallowed. People living within a 100 feet of a stream will not be able to expand their houses by more than 20%. Work on the golf course would be impacted along Fairy Creek. A walkpath along a stream would need a permit.<\/p>\n<p>The end result is that people who own land with streams will abandon their land because they will not be able to do anything with the property. A lot of taxable property will come off the tax rolls. Taxes WILL increase if these regulations go through. <\/p>\n<p>The sad part is, is that no alternatives are being considered. New and immerging technologies that could help the environment and protect property rights aren&#8217;t even being considered.<\/p>\n<p>Boos to the Lake George Park Commission for turning down an extreme path, Bravos to the Warren County Supervisors for thinking this one through.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.poststar.com\/articles\/2009\/07\/18\/news\/local\/doc4a613fe04d859881251834.txt\" target=\"_blank\">Read the Post Star article.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Post Star reports on what happened at the Warren County Board of Supervisors meeting on Friday.
