HawgGoneIt Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 During this meeting, the council members were given a packet that clearly displayed the identifying property and no issues were brought to my attention with zoning between that time and December 30. Why would they identify any potential zoning issues at that time? He hasn't filed anything. He's only presented them with "packets" containing ideas.

HawgGoneIt Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 The water and sewer part of the Elmore-Autauga news story brings in a whole other potential can of worms. If there is no sewer taps or fresh water lines already provided out there, this is an expense for the city to add the lines. The area looks kind of rural so, there may not be a line out there, and depending on where the facilities are, potentially pumps and the like could be necessary to get the brown water to a treatment facility. That's a big if though. The reporter is apparently on it so there should be updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a serious note, that area of the state could certainly use some economic boosting. They've just got more work to do is all. The realities of where they currently stand on moving forward with the project and the apparent expectations of the founder are apparently not even on the same plane of existence.

The only way I see him using IMG as proof generating all that income for That area is if they are out in the middle of Bumb Fook Florida. Because Seems like Coosada, Al is in Bumb Fook Alabama. But yeah if it is a boom for that area then maybe the Jesus he says is backing him will make it happen.

HawgGoneIt Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 13 minutes ago, GardenStateBaller said: The landowners in question have a viable concern. Even up here in NJ, most of the residents that live near hs stadiums despise the crowds, lights and noise that comes with the territory. However, there’s nothing they can do to stop the stadium from being built where it’s currently planned. The way the current restrictions from zoning read, outdoor recreational is available, but the school is restricted. However, the town limit is just 300 yards from the property, and USA has the option to build the school just outside the town limit where it would fall under County, which is unrestricted. Also, no construction plans of any sort have been rejected to date as erroneously reported earlier. Lastly, USA is not delayed at all at this point in time. As a matter of fact, look for the construction process to start in the very near future. To view this exciting process in real time, please feel free to follow USAs Twitter account. Does "outdoor recreational" include or preclude ipf's, press boxes, locker rooms, weight rooms? Any of that type of stuff? You know... all the stuff he showed in the pretty pictures while giving the pitch. Also, if you haven't applied for anything yet, nothing can be rejected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawgGoneIt Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Just now, GardenStateBaller said: The way the by-laws read, none of that would be restricted because they’re related facilities to the outdoor recreation. Well, in that case, build the dorms and class rooms too, as they're clearly related directly to the outdoor recreation as well. The entire mission of the school is related to those outdoor recreational activities at this point. It's all related. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gut says that one will have the customary sizzle, rather than honest info. It's all fake news. The guy posted on his webpage that he's already been through the clearing house of steps about the same time the Wetumpka paper posted an article where the mayor of Coosada says they've spoken informally. One of those two stories just can't really be true can it? One good thing... It's the off season and it's something football related to keep up with and argue about. I'll open up a new can today... This project needs the city for sewer. Moving nonchalantly 300 ft or whatever was said, out to the county may avoid rezoning, but, opens the door for the EPA when he has to put in commercial septic systems. Someone said it's close to the Alabama river, so, that would be something to watch as well if they try to make the move to plan B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AztecPadre Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 BY SARAH STEPHENS, OWNER/EDITOR On Jan. 4 USA Founder Dusty DeVaughn issued a statement regarding the state of USA Academy after he learned about required zoning and permits that would be needed by the Town of Coosada. While DeVaughn initially referred to our article as Media Misreporting, he now says it turned out to be a positive thing, because he has since learned more about what is required for the project to move ahead. He said he has also been contacted by other land owners who could offer an option for alternate locations if the need arises. DeVaughn told the EAN he will know a lot more on Monday regarding the path forward. His issue with our article, he said, was that he was not allowed to give his side. However, he also acknowledged that he saw missed calls and text messages later in the day from the EAN that were sent by reporters prior to running the story. He learned of these issues in more detail, he said, when the Elmore/Autauga News reported that the Town of Coosada officials told us they had not received a request for rezoning or permits. After our article, other media outlets began reporting the same information. “With the unknown issues that have arisen this past week I am looking forward to working with the Town of Coosada swiftly in the next 48 hours to resolve these issues and hopefully continue to create an economic development project to have a long lasting positive impact on the town,” DeVaughn told us today. “When you ran that, I had no knowledge that there was a bigger issue at hand,” DeVaughn said, regarding the zoning and permits that would be required. “I do want to point out that there is no rezoning required for athletic facilities, as outdoor recreation is a conditional status under current zoning.” At our first meeting with DeVaughn the day a video was taken of the property where he would like to locate the facility in Coosada, he said that everything was a go and the Town was excited. He said at that time, he believed everything was in order and the project was moving forward. DeVaughn is set to meet with multiple people on Monday to see if Coosada is still a good location, but either way he has a “back up plan to my back up plan,” he said. He is even considering several pieces of property outside of Coosada. He says he has been approached by land owners who are very interesting in talking with him if the original plan with Coosada is not viable. DeVaughn said the school itself can be a virtual online school, at least in the beginning, as the current zoning in Coosada for the property on Lynn Drive would have to be changed for a school. In essence, DeVaughn said that the athletic facilities could be located there, with the actual school being off site until issues are resolved. Below is the full unedited statement DeVaughn issued on Saturday to the USA Academy Facebook page and website.

HawgGoneIt Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 He better go hire a real estate attorney or a consulting firm before scratching up the dirt out there for football facilities that have any permanent buildings or stands attatched as well. He's gonna end up in a lawsuit with that lady and/or other concerned citizens about the potential impact on their property values and other concerns. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AztecPadre Posted January 6, 2020 Report Share Posted January 6, 2020 Maybe probst just wants to really believe this happens and is hoping for the best. DD could have made a great pitch to him. I hope they do get something going for the kids who have signed on and for the town folk too. But homeboy just needs to tailor down the promises.
