HALBURN WON'T ADMIT WALL WILL NOT STOP NOISE

Assclown Does Not Understand The Laws Of Physics

For years, Hurricane asshole Mark Halburn has told anyone that would listen the that the city needs to order Walmart to build a sound wall.


Halburn enjoys the view from his front yard of the wall that he hopes someone will build for him.

The neighbors have accurately said that his crying has contributed greatly to noise levels and that the loudmouth has been throwing up false arguments to generate sympathy for himself and publicity for his failing website.

As he has used lame arguments to get the sound wall, Halburn has bullied council members and other politicians who wouldn't buy his rhetoric, including C. Brian Ellis and West Virginia State Senator W. "Mike" Hall. All along, Halburn has refused to provide any scientific evidence or statements from sound engineers that a "sound wall" has any impact on sound waves.

Of course, anyone with common sense knows that the reason Halburn never produced any evidence or sound engineer opinions is that there isn't any.

Now, PutnamLIES.com has a recording of Edwards admitting that Halburn is lying in his article.

"I've said nothing different to him for a long time, other than for him to get away from me or to get out of my face," said Edwards. "Looks like a made up story again."

Now that Edwards has finally spoken the truth on the issue, it remains to be seen if Hurricane City Council members will continue to put up with Halburn's shit or run his fat ass out of town.

Halburn claims that Realtors have advised the neighbors that keeping the commercial zoning will make it easier to sell their homes. However, none of them have had any offers under the current zoning and none are actively marketing their property.

About 15 lawsuits have been filed over construction blasting and construction noise. Halburn lost his lawsuit last year.

Edwards is a member of the Putnam County Development Authority Board of Directors which put together the Walmart project and served as a non-elected Hurricane City Council Member when the Walmart was planned. He was elected mayor in 2007 in an election that included a number of disputed ballots in unsealed envelopes. After both the required canvass and a recount requested by the challenger, the final tally showed Edwards was the winner, whereupon the loser challenged the results.
The WV Supreme Court found that the ballot dispute was a moot point because Edward's challenger failed to file his challenge in a timely manner.

PutnumLlVE.com has alleged that the City of Hurricane changed the zoning without the neighbor's knowledge or permission, up to four decades after they bought their homes, but has provided no proof of those charges

Halburn alleges that Edwards refuses to put the Walmart sound wall and trees on the city council agenda.
The question should be asked, just how often does this need to be brought before Council?
Halburn brought it before Council twice in Dec 09, after which the city contacted Walmart and was told in no uncertain terms that the company had no intention of building or allowing others to build a sound wall on their property.


He then brought it up again the very next month, in January of this year.
Thinking that, for some twisted reason, the city should build the wall.
Walls and trees are not the city's responsibility.

This means one man, Halburn, is preventing an entire neighborhood from having peace and quiet by his incessant non-stop whining about Walmart.

Halburn used to publish a daily diary chronicling the daily excessive noise. However, he has pulled it at least four times because he couldn't take the criticism originating here and on Tyler Hollywood's site that made light of his imagined problems and insane rantings. It reappears from time to time after people stop paying attention to him. The last few times he has hidden it with no links to it.

Councilwoman Lana Call says "The city can't afford it."
Halburn ducks the real issue: personal responsibility.
He refuses to be responsible for his own problems.
