Do utility companies know what "scenic" means?

In regards to the power substation's lack of landscaping, I would think from a security standpoint that there needs to be visibility 24/7 from the road. What about vandalism or something worse?

As for buffer landscaping on most other buildings along 30A this would great. If you have been to Hilton Head Island then you know how aesthetically pleasing this is.

I really think a landscape wall is a bit snobby (which is what everyone says about all of us down here anyway) and a silly waste of money, but feel free to get on the agenda of one of Chelco's Board of Trustees meetings.

Annual meeting this year is April 21 at Freeport High School.

Yes it is, and I believe the Board still has monthly meetings. My father was on Chelco's Board in the early 1980's and it may have changed since then.

OK I am going to live up to my signature but here goes... There is nothing about SOWAL that is "scenic" anymore. The monster houses are not ...the power stations we have to have now to power all those monster houses are not....all of the cars/rude people needed to finance those houses are not....the lift station I have to tolerate (Bay Dr.) is not....(we even try to guess how long it will be before that house on the corner goes on the market..again)...Honestly I wish St.Joe was still a paper company..they were alot better "neighbors" than some of them we have now.

Pretty hard to disagree with that post...

I would add the real estate agent's signs which seem grow larger and larger in size, especially on the east end of 30A, take away from anything "scenic" that is left of 30A.
