PUBLIC PULSE

The Montgomery County Board of Supervisors on Wednesday approved a special use permit that allows Ken Harvey to construct two buildings at Bill's Used Parts and continue operating the automobile graveyard on Radford Road just outside Christiansburg. The buildings will be used for inside storage of auto parts as vehicles are dismantled.

Also, the supervisors learned the new Montgomery County pool attracted an average of 421 people a day during its first month of operation. More than $21,800 was raised in revenue, with about half that covering expenses. Almost 11,000 children and adults visited the pool during the month.

And the board went into executive session for more than two hours to discuss eight matters - including school sites for Blacksburg Middle, Christiansburg Middle and a high school in the Shawsville-Alleghany area - but took no action.
