LOUDON — The battle over moving the Loudon County school system
offices out of the County Office Building could go from push to
shove after the May 6 primary election.
Mayor Estelle Herron told county commissioners during an April
15 committee meeting that she was ready to take legal action to
move the schools out if she is re-elected.
“And I promise you if they’re not moving and if I get elected, I
will go to the sheriff and get me an eviction notice,” she said.
“I promise you.”
The decision of whether to move the schools offices and where to
move them has been stalled since February when school board
attorney Chuck Cagle suggested in a workshop that the County
Commission’s actions in ordering and funding the move might not
be legal.
