A dispute between the Roaring Fork Transportation Authority and the owner of Alpine Tire Co. in Glenwood Springs about adverse impacts of a wall, constructed along with a parking lot as part of the bus rapid transit expansion on the tire companys property is going to trial.

According to a complaint filed on Aug. 28, 2013, in Garfield County District Court by property owner Michael Sos, the load-bearing wall is located in very close proximity to his property line and depends on his property for its support, without which support the wall would fail.

The document stated that the location of the wall and an earthen bank abutting Sos property subjects it to the likelihood of inundation and invasion of significant drainage waters and debris, rendering portions of the lot totally unusable, and constituting an unlawful taking of his property, or inverse condemnation on the value of his lot.

The property in question is next to the South Glenwood 27th Street park-and-ride facility along South Glen Avenue, where a wall of tires, which has been the subject of much speculation, has recently been erected.

Sos, who has owned his property for 25 years, said the tire wall has dual purposes in that it gives Alpine a place to store its tires, and it helps keep people, including RFTA employees, from parking in his lot.

Our parking lot has become their parking lot, Sos said Friday, adding that RFTA was also supposed to put trees and other landscaping as a barrier between the two properties, but still hasnt complied.

Another wall of tires goes across the backside (east) of the lot that was put in place after commuters had made a path down the steep dirt bank, and Sos saw people slipping and falling down it.

Aspen attorney Paul Taddune, who is representing RFTA, said Friday that the transit company has made efforts at remediation in the case, but no resolutions have taken hold.

He said that Sos had no objections to the wall being built in 2013, but felt it was a problem only after its completion.

But Sos contends that he told the transit company about these issues before the parking structure was built, and said his letters were ignored.

Uncertainty looms large over reopening of Kursura Submarine Museum, which has been closed ever since cyclone Hudhud hit the coast and battered the compound wall of the museum.

While officials are hopeful of throwing the doors of the submarine open to visitors during Visakha Utsav on January 23, the recent incident of beach erosion has cast a shadow on reopening of the museum in the near future.

VUDA officials are, however, keeping their fingers crossed.

On Friday, sea surged towards the museum, eroding a major part of the approach road leading to the entry of the museum.

VUDA Vice-Chairman M.V. Seshagiri Babu, along with officials, inspected the museum to assess the situation.

Observing the intrusion of sea water and the waves, he asked Chief Engineer B. Jayarami Reddy to evolve an immediate action plan to avoid danger to the museum premises and a long-term scientific plan to make permanent arrangements to protect the landmark tourist spot from sea erosion.

Tenders have been called for reconstruction of the fencing of the walls that were affected during the cyclone. But, severe erosion activity may have further dented the possibility of restoring South Asias first submarine museum anytime soon.

Even as the peak tourist season started this week, the museum will be losing revenue of Rs. 80,000 to Rs. 1 lakh per day.

ASHEVILLE Repairs on a partially collapsed retaining wall at the Asheville Regional Airport, one that was built without a county permit and left nearby wetlands laden with sediment, are expected to take about eight weeks, according to airport officials.

The two-month time frame includes approval for a permit and ordering and manufacturing new wall panels, airport spokeswoman Tina Kinsey wrote in an email.

Contractors also have outlined a repair plan that addresses drainage, excavation and installation of new concrete panels, most about five feet square and six inches thick. The document calls for all panels that have shifted or are damaged to be replaced.

Four stories tall at its peak and nearly one-fourth of a mile long, the wall buckled on one end and collapsed on the other on Christmas Eve following rains. Fill dirt from behind the structure washed across Ferncliff Park Drive and into wetlands adjacent to the French Broad River, prompting the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to issue a violation notice for the leaching sediment.
