High tech company in Tryon growing quickly by Cheyrl Roig and Briley Hooper

Many people living in the Tryon area drive by kiveo (yes, it’s a small “k”); on a weekly basis. They see their ads in the newspaper, but ask anyone on the street what kiveo actually does

and most people don’t know. kiveo was formed in 2008 by Miles Phillips, Briley Hooper and Jeremy Edgell, three developers who met at another company and decided to set up their own shop in Tryon. They ran kiveo out of their homes and borrowed space

for a year before they moved into their current space at 133 N. Trade Street in Tryon, next door to the Green River Frame Shop. kiveo got its start developing websites as well as applications for Facebook and mobile phones. Locally, kiveo has developed the

Tryon Events website and helped a number of companies in and around Tryon begin or strengthen their Internet presence, including Blaze Realty, the Tryon Daily Bulletin, and the Polk County (Continued on page 4)

Polk ordinance bans commercial developments in Saluda Township Proposed campground brings issue to light by Leah Justice

An application for permission to create an RV park and campground off Holbert's Cove Road may have uncovered a glitch in the county’s new mountainside and ridgeline protection ordinance. The ordinance prohibits any

commercial developments above 1,650 feet elevation. All of Saluda Township is above 1,650 feet, so commercial developments appear to be banned in any part of Saluda Township that is not inside Saluda city limits, where city regulations apply. The ban does not apply to "customary home occupations." The issue arose recently when

Saluda land trust gets grant to buy lot near school by Leah Justice

The Saluda Community Land Trust recently purchased a one-acre lot for public use after receiving a grant from the Polk County Community Foundation. Betsy Burdett of the Saluda Community Land Trust announced the purchase during a city council meeting last week. The land abuts U.S. 176 and is adjacent to the Saluda School, behind an area in which students have birdhouses. The property will be available for students during school hours and to the public outside school hours. It includes a creek and plans are to develop walking trails. Burdett also told council that the Saluda Community Land Trust is making good progress in a volunteer effort to clear kudzu at the old Saluda city dump site. The Saluda Community Land Trust was formed to created a greenway throughout Saluda, particularly along the Pacolet River.

The Saluda Community Land Trust was recently able to purchase a one-acre lot adjacent to Saluda School using funds provided by a Polk County Community Foundation grant. The lot can be used by the school and by the public during non-school hours. (photo by Leah Justice)

• Polk ordinance (continued from page 1)

Zachary Waldbillig sought an application to construct an RV park and campground off Holbert’s Cove Road in Saluda Township. The property is in the county’s multiple use zoning district, but falls under the mountain and ridgeline ordinance because of its elevation. Waldbillig’s property’s low point is about 1,980 ft in elevation and its high point is over 2,000 ft., according to Polk County GIS records. Waldbillig has petitioned the City of Saluda for voluntary annexation, which would put the property city regulations, which do not specifically prohibit such development. Saluda City Council directed the city clerk last Monday to investigate the voluntary annexation application. A public hearing will be required before Saluda decides whether to annex the property. Waldbillig is proposing a 3.1-acre campground with 40 to 50 sites, a well site for water and a dump site for sewage. He says he plans to build a pool as well. Campground plans also include about 10 yurts or cabins for rental, included in the total site number. Yurts are portable, felt-covered, wood latticeframed dwelling structures traditionally used by nomads that are more home-like than a tent, with thicker walls. Waldbillig says the campground will work with local whitewater outfitters for guests to participate in river sports. The city will consider the satellite annexation and likely decide on a public hearing date next month. The zoning of the parcel would be R-3, which allows mobile homes. Polk County is now researching its mountain and ridgeline ordinance with regard to this restriction, and officials say

they have not decided what to do about the issue. County building inspector Steve Jones, who is also the administrator of the mountain and ridgeline ordinance, is looking into the issue. The county’s planning board or newly appoined Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Committee would likely also consider the issue if commissioners decide changes need to be made. The county’s mountainside and ridgeline protection ordinance restricts building of all types at elevations of 1,650 ft. and above. It includes two ordinances, one for zoned townships and another for unzoned townships. Saluda Township is zoned, as are Tryon, Columbus and Green Creek townships, while Coopers Gap and White Oak townships remain unzoned. The ordinance also includes increased restrictions at higher elevations, such as 2,250 and above. The ordinance for the zoned areas states under its “restrictions” section that “unless (and only to the extent) an exemption granted by Section 8 applies, permitted uses of property situated in protected mountain terrain shall be limited to single family residences, accessory buildings, guest houses, private clubs (serving exclusively the residents of a specific subdivision and their guests), customary home occupations and public utility buildings and facilities, as those terms are defined in the Polk County Zoning Ordinance.” Polk County adopted the ordinance in June, 2009 following public outcry as a result of Chocolate Drop, a development on the side of the mountain now in Columbus where much clearing was done and erosion problems followed. At the same time, the county also adopted an erosion ordinance, but it has not yet begun enforcing it because of funding issues.

ReMax moving to Tryon, new sign for Tryon Federal ReMax Advantage Realty owners Bonnie Lingerfelt, Jean Skelcy and Richard Yurko are moving their firm to the Century 21 Tryon Real Estate building in Tryon later this year. The three announced that they are purchasing the Century 21 building at 177 N. Trade St. and combining agencies with Allan Pruette, owner of Century 21. ReMax Advantage Realty currently has offices on Hwy. 108 just west of Columbus. “We are excited and looking forward to the energetic and expanded business that will result with additional agents, greater synergy, growing market share and a repositioning of our firm,” Lingerfelt, Skelcy and Yurko said in an advertisement this week in the Tryon Daily Bulletin. ReMax will also open a new vacation and long-term rental department, the owners said, “to complete our brokerage services.” *** The exterior signage for Tryon Federal Bank’s Tryon and Columbus office exteriors was changed last Wednesday with a new logo. This is an initiative the HomeTrust Bank partnership has rolled out to all its markets. “The new logo/graphic of three upward pointing arrows represents the ‘rooftops’ of homes, for individuals, businesses and community – the three core segments we partner with every day to help achieve home ownership,” said Stacie Hicks, HomeTrust Director of Marketing. “Also, this initiative happens to coincide with Tryon Federal’s 75th anniversary.” To celebrate 75 years, Tryon Federal Bank president Jerry Johnson is hosting a BBQ lunch at the Tryon bank office tomorrow, Tuesday, Sept. 21, and at the Columbus office Thursday, Sept. 23, both from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. *** Happy McLeod has started a new business, Happy’s Meals, offering meals “prepared by servant hands that love to cook.” “This food service is offered to

make your in-home dining a pleasure, not a chore of grocery shopping, preparing meals, and cleaning up the kitchen,” McLeod said. She plans to offer meals of natural, fresh (when possible) organic foods; no processed or enriched products are used. McLeod will shop with IGA, Ingles, Bi-Lo and Food Lion, plus local fresh produce stands (Benson's and Ayers). Whole Foods in Greenville, and The Fresh Market and Publix in Spartanburg are also options, she said. Other groceries will be considered upon request. A variety of recipes will be available, or customers’ own favorite dishes can be prepared. “Foods are bought, brought to your home and prepared in your kitchen,” McLeod said. “Your kitchen is left clean at the end of the food preparation.” Happy’s Meals will be available Wednesday to Friday, from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. and may be scheduled on a weekly, monthly, daily or special occasion basis. Service is provided on a first come - first served basis for a family or dinner up to 12. For more information, contact Happy McLeod at 828-283-1177 or happy@tryonrealestate.net. *** Attorney Travis S. Greene, who has practiced law in Polk County for more than nine years, is closing his office at 75 S. Trade St. in Tryon Sept. 30 and consolidating his practice into his Spartanbuurg office at 104 N. Daniel Morgan Ave. Greene intends to continue representing clients in Polk and Rutherford counties. His practice focuses on automobile accidents, civil litigation such as property disputes, construction disputes, estate disputes and business-related disputes, as well as estate administration and traffic tickets.

His integrity and commitment to excellent work is easily seen by his clients, and is the reason for his great reputation in the community.” Crotts received his associate's degree in criminal justice from Isothermal Community College and completed his bachelor’s degree at Lees McCrae College, where he majored in criminal justice and received a minor in sociology. He graduated cum laude from the Appalachian School of Law, where he received his Juris Doctorate degree.

St. Luke’s offers screenings, talk on Alzheimer’s tomorrow On Sept. 21, St. Luke’s Hospital and organizations across the world will unite to recognize World Alzheimer’s Day, with the theme this year of ‘Dementia: It’s Time for Action!’ Alzheimer’s disease affects more than four million Americans and millions more of their families and caregivers. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive brain disorder that gradually destroys a person’s memory and ability to learn, reason, make judgments, communicate and carry out daily activities. As Alzheimer’s progresses, individuals may also experience changes in personality and behavior, such as anxiety, suspiciousness or agitation, as well as delusions or hallucinations. Tomorrow, professionals through St. Luke’s Hospital’s Center of Behavioral Medicine will provide free, confidential screenings to detect early dementia on Tuesday, Sept. 21, from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m., at 56 Hospital Drive, Suite 3B, Columbus, located in the St. Luke’s Hospital Medical Park. An appointment is necessary; please call 894-2408. Also tomorrow, you can join Dr. Belynda Veser, psychiatrist at St. Luke’s Center of Behavioral Medicine, as she explains treatment options for Alzheimer’s and offers strategies for managing the disease on at 6 p.m. in the St. Luke’s Hospital Board Room. Space is limited, so please call 894-2408 to reserve your spot. A light dinner will be served.

Polk County World Alzheimer's Day proclamation Polk commissioners recently issued the following proclamation: Whereas, today there are as many as 5.3 million Americans living with Alzheimer’s, a figure that is expected to grow to as many as 16 million by mid-century if something is not done. Whereas, there are currently 200,000 people with Alzheimer’s living in the state of North Carolina and that number is expected to increase to 500,000 by 2025. Whereas, researchers are making great progress in developing ways to accurately diagnose and treat Alzheimer’s disease. Whereas, the Alzheimer’s Association is marking September 21 as World Alzheimer’s Day and asking Polk County residents to visit www.actionalz.org to learn more about Alzheimer’s disease and raise funds to combat it. Whereas, St. Luke’s Hospital is sponsoring free screenings and a community presentation to help bring awareness to a disease that affects someone every 70 seconds Now therefore, I, Cindy Walker, Chair of Polk County Commissioners, do hereby proclaim September 21, 2010 World Alzheimer’s Day in Polk County.

Hospice welcomes volunteers of all shapes, sizes and hairdos What’s blonde and brown and furry all over? Why, it’s Dexter, the two-year-old Hospice volunteer for Hospice of the Carolina Foothills. This certified Hospice volunteer can be found Sunday afternoons reclining under the desk in the atrium of the Carolina Foothills Hospice House in Landrum. He snoozes quietly unless visitors pull open the glass entrance doors. Then he peeks out from under the desk, tail wagging rhythmically. “His welcome is subtle here,” his companion Maureen Smith explains, “not at all like the way he welcomes guests at home, where his ‘greeting disorder’ is on full display.” In addition to being a Hospice volunteer, Dexter is also a certified guide dog, a graduate of Southeastern Guide Dogs in

Palmetto, Florida. He is a highly trained working dog, skilled at alerting his companion to obstacles like curbs, stairs and low-hanging branches. “My vision is impaired from a serious car accident many years ago,” Maureen explains. Though her sight is still good enough to drive in the daytime, she made the decision, like many guide dog owners, to acquire her dog before her vision deteriorated further. Because she feels so blessed to have Dexter in her life, Maureen says she enjoys sharing him with residents and visitors at the Hospice House, who can use a light-hearted distraction. “Normally, when he is wearing his working harness with the Please Do Not Pet Me sign, I do (Continued on page xx)

The common Nighthawk migration begins As the long days of summer start to shorten and the fall evenings grow cooler, many of our local birds start to move south for the winter. If you get the chance, go outside in the early evening and scan the darkening skies. You should start to see the beginnings of the Common Nighthawk migration that passes through our area of the country. From the last few days in August through the end of September, large numbers of these very impressive birds enliven the evening skies with their distinctive shapes. The Common Nighthawk is a member of a large, worldwide family that includes the nightjars of Europe and Asia, and the by Simon Whip-poor-wills Thompson and Chuck-willswidows of the US, Central and South America. Most, if not all, of these cryptically-colored species are nocturnal, but the nighthawks are also visible in the evenings and sometimes throughout the daylight hours. They can sometimes be found roosting lengthwise along branches or power-lines or perched on top of wooden fence-posts. If dis-

Grove Park Inn, Asheville. It’s a beautiful exhibit, and features Dale’s paintings and sculpture. I ran into Mike Belleme there, and have to brag on him, too...he’s traveling a lot with camera, and has accolades in the photography world. I remember when he was jumping around on gym mats at Saluda School! Simple joys: warm fresh bread, a ride in a golf cart up the hill, golden leaf drifting over blue water. Garden notes: Autumn Joy sedum is a workhorse garden plant: this time of year, it’s attracting all sorts of bees, butterflies. Wasps enjoy it too: I just let them all have it, and am glad to see those bees working it over. The bees are loving my purple basil, which has been flowering with hundreds of tiny blooms. What do you think about outdoor lighting? I think that it is time we consider a ‘night sky’ ordinance or at least curtail unnecessary outdoor lighting which can be invasive. Most lights can be down-lit and shielded. Many towns in California have adopted this policy, and it makes a big difference. Oscar Harbin is doing better — which is good news to share. Condolences go to the family of Jay Hahn and Charles Wolff. Happy September Birthdays to Dale McEntire, Joni Rauschenbach, Peggy Moffat, Sonya Monts, Linda Kaye Haynes, Carol Kenfield, Debbie Fisher, Leslie Jespersen, Linda Mintz, Betty Thompson, Sheila Billeter, Cary Pace, Ross Arrington.

that I need to weed through and send to the post office table in Tryon to share. Just call me pack rat! Remember to join and support our local libraries — we have wonderful people who work at them, which I can attest to, remembering how when I first came to Polk County, I found my way quickly to the old library building that was downtown Columbus — and the Bookmobile when it came up to the park in Saluda when we didn’t have a library yet. I can remember when I was a little girl, and my pipe-smoking, opera loving dad took me one summer Saturday afternoon to town to get my very own card: it was blue and made me feel like I owned the world (which in a way you really do when you’re a kid and get your very first library card). I loved the smell of the books in the stacks, and how they felt when I pulled them out — there were books about everything imaginable: I made friends with bees, fairies, mythology, history, art, and so many places, all there in a library—hours spent reading, browsing the endless rows, each title an invitation to discover something new, or a writer. I’ve never lost my love of the scent of a book, the feel, and the turn of the first page, and how I feel when I have one that I’m itching to read, carrying it home as if it was a treasure. Thank you for your much appreciated thoughts and continuing feedback about this column! It brightens my day to know YOU read it. As ever, the goal is to make you, dear reader, feel like you’re enjoying a front porch visit with me — porch swing, birds singing, watching those spider webs sparkle with dew. Keep in mind if you have something of note, feel free to e-mail me at bbardos@gmail. com; or call me at 749-1153. You may also visit my website at bonniebardos.com
