span in the bri#!. a DOT
spokesman said Monday.
Powell also built a new
bridge over Ch:m:l Creek off
U. S. 27 north ion durin
the summer, 1986, althou{g
the DOT had alrea d?' told the
commissioner that it planned
to use state funds to replace
the bridge.
CONFIRMED
Jerry Stargell, public infor
mation officer for the DOT
confirmed Monday that Powell
had written the letter to
Rutledge in November, 1987.
The DOT had also planned
to pave the Trion-Broomtown
Road, the DOT spokesman
said, but the commissioner in
his Nov. 5 letter told Rutledge
that county funds had already
been used to pave the roadway
prior to that winter. J
A DOT official told The
News in November, 1986, that
since Powell had rebuilt the
bridge over Chappel Creek, the
state could not “touch” the
structure for at least 10 years.
1f the DOT had done the work,
it would have been at virtuall{
no cost to the county, state of
ficials said at the time.
NO INFORMATION
State officials Monday said
they didn't know what right-of
‘way ?roblems develop:g with
the four remaining bridge
building projects to cause them
to be cancel{:l l?' Powell. The
agreement was for the county
to obtain rights-of-way and the
state to do the actual work.
For the bridges to be plac
ed back on the DOT pro%'eam.
they would again have to be re
quested by the commissioner’s
office, Stargell said.
The DOT has rebuilt
several bridges in the City of
Summerville during the past
two {ears.
The DOT usually pays for
rights-of-way to a proposed
project and when a property
owner won't sell, the state uses
its power of eminent domain to
condemn the needed tract, a
DOT official said Monday.
Cities and counties have
basically the same powers.
