Power Lines
Electricity came to this area in 1946. Because the homes were far apart, and the road winding, power lines went straight across the farm, and not on the road. This was changed about 5 years ago with poles installed next to the road. The right of way has reverted to the owner. The poles have not yet been taken down, which is their obligation. CVPS contacted the phone company in November about removing their lines and the poles. Because those poles could potentially be used by the new owner, so I have not requested for their removal.
