More troubles on Aetna Mountain this weekend. Residents say a security service is now blocking the dirt road entrance up the mountain.
Property owners on Aetna have been battling a developer who is expanding a housing subdivision up the mountain. There have also been concerns about four-wheelers riding through the housing development to get to Aetna Mountain and leaving dirt on the road.
A court order ruled residents can use the easement to get to their property. But this weekend a private security service set up a road block. Property owners called police, and even captured the ordeal on their cell phones. But they say this only adds to on-going troubles.
“They don't want anyone in an off-road vehicle going up the mountain. And it's just an intimidation tactic,” said property owner Jeff Perlaky.
Perlaky says he plans to file a Contempt of Court, citing the court order that allows him to use Aetna Mountain Road.
