  • Power lines to stay put in 1st phase of Simpsonville's downtown project

    Simpsonville’s downtown project is going to look a little different than planned.

    Because so much time has passed since the city received in 2009 a $320,000 Transportation Enhancement Program federal stimulus grant, the plan to relocate utility poles from the south side of U.S. 60 is going to have to be abandoned, City Administrator David Eaton told the city commission at its meeting Wednesday.

  • Simpsonville moves to abolish sewer board

    Simpsonville is moving ahead to abolish its sewer board and turn control of the system over to its city commission.

    Commissioners voted unanimously Wednesday to approve the first reading of an ordinance that eliminates a board that has been in place since 1981. Vicky Wise, the sewer commissioner, did not attend the meeting, nor did any member of the sewer board.

    Mayor Steve Eden said it was time to make this move because the city no longer needed that intervening body to screen sewer issues in separate meetings.
