UNICOI â The town of Unicoi has put the brakes on three of its most prominent capital projects.
The Unicoi Board of Mayor and Aldermen voted Monday to suspend activity and spending on the development of an extension of Pinnacle Fire tower trail, construction of amphitheater at Unicoi Village Place and the proposed Erwin/Unicoi connector trail.
Alderman Roger Cooper made the motion to halt the projects until the board can determine their value to residents of Unicoi and Unicoi County.
In a discussion of the projects, Cooper said the planned extension of a trail from the Pinancle Firetower Trailhead to the town visitors center would be impacted by the anticipated construction of a travel center on Unicoi Village Place Road.
