Tompkins Library wants county revenues, but skips out paying into them web posted April 9, 2009 EDGEFIELD – While the Tompkins Library supporters were standing before the county council Tuesday night seeking money from the county, it seems they were avoiding paying their fair share to the county. For over a year they have been involved in a construction project in the basement, or what is to be a basement, of the building. Moreover, they have been doing it without the required permit from the county or proper inspections. A check with the Edgefield County Building and Planning Office on Wednesday confirmed the work has been ongoing with no permit. Building Director Mike Reed said he was unaware of the project until it was brought to his attention and his office would be visiting the Tompkins Library to inspect the work that has been taking place and make the group purchase the permit, at double the normal price. The double fee is for engaging in the work without the proper fees being paid upfront Mr. Reed said, doubling the fee is similar to a fine and the fee could go even higher. EdgefieldDaily.com was tipped to the un-permitted work by readers who oppose the county’s funding of the Edgefield Civic League / Tompkins Library though they use the facility. More so-called “secrets” claimed are currently being investigated. © Copyright 2009
