Yes, but we will still need permission from the Tennessee Department
of Conservation to build anywhere on the land because a structure on
any part of that land may affect the habitat of the ducks. This plot
of land is only three acres so obviously a building on 5000 square
feet could impact any part of this small plot of land.
In addition, there is no sewer system on the land, so we will have to
build our own sewer line or a septic tank. This too will obviously
affect the wetlands area. The sewage will likely contaminate the river
nearby which is already contaminated by the power station and the gas
company next door.
In order to get permission from the Tennessee Department of
Conservation to build our new USCF headquarters, we will have to
submit our building plans to that department. This means that we will
have to pay the architect to design the building and then submit the
plan to see if it passes. It is noteworthy that the contract that the
architect got Beatriz to sign specified that he was under no liability
if the plans were no good.
I would like to remind you that Ken Thomas, the USCF Chief Financial
Officer, warned you of these possibilities in a letter but you brushed
him off and after only ten minutes of discussion you voted to move to
Crossville. Perhaps you should have done some investigation into these
matters before taking this vote. Perhaps you have considered the
possibility that since this land was being given to us for free, there
might be something wrong with the land. Turns out that there are many
things wrong with the land which is why they selected a sucker, the
USCF, to build there.
