Exposed wire is on vacant lot left side of 1008 Bradbury Court

I placed a cover over the street light wire it’s not secure kids knock it off and I put it back why don’t you put in the street light that shows on the primal plans for this development that’s been here 25 years. If it’s a labor issue I’ll dig the Hole

Nothing has been done the solution is simple finish the job install a streetlight or make a two visits job put in a RPZ box to safely secure the wire and come back another time to install a streetlight that was supposed to be installed 20 years ago

As I have said before install a ground box to secure the live wire or put up the streetlight

No action has been taken wire is covered with a plastic pipe that I placed and replaced because it gets removed by local kids . I think the authorities are waiting for the owner of the unbuilt lot to build . That is not going to happen in the near future. A more secure solution needs to be done before one or more of the 10 children that play in this court get seriously injured

It is 8:26 am July 22,2021
I am standing on my front porch and the plastic tube I replaced over the exposed street light electric wire is still over the wire . Still not properly secured so that the kids that play on the lot still can and will knock the plastic tube off. I’m sure there is a spare street light somewhere that can be placed on the spot and connected. The owner of the lot has not made a decision on when or if they will build . Please either properly secure the electrical wire in a appropriate safe and secure manner or place the streetlight that is on the plan for 1007 Bradbury Court

Sorry date is 2023 on previous comment.

No it has not been addressed perhaps after a child is hurt or maybe killed something may be done

There are TWO. simple solutions

1 Place a proper buried electrical box
2 Place the street light that is supposed to be there that will has never been installed

Still as of 9/20/23

What has to happen three times in the last month I have warned children to not play with the wire it’s going to happen eventually some one will get seriously hurt or DIE HEADLINED on local news channels . “This was a wonderful child had a great future why did this happen “ someone has to pay . We have documentation since February 2023 . I’m not going to mention a name at this time 2 town officials have told me they would look into WHO is responsible and get it done . If you don’t have a street light place a utility box AKA AN RPZ BOX like the utilities use to protect access to their cables

If you don’t have a person to do it tell me where I can go to pick up an RPZ BOX and I will dig the hole myself .

Still no response perhaps WECT CH 6 would like to do a news report before someone gets hurt . Great for their ratings especially when someone sad ones get hurt . Officially I have been trying to get something done about this since We move here 8 years ago

As of today the plastic tube I placed over the wire is broken so the wire is now exposed to the elements

This problem has been going on and on , no one , has responded no one has contacted me in two years does someone have to get gravely hurt for some thing to be done . Who handles street lights who is responsible for the wires sticking out of the ground the wire in in the utility “Right Of Way “ maybe I’ll contact WECT NEWS IM SURE they would love a human interest story about the total lack of of action from The Town Of Leland or Brunswick County , Duke energy and even Brunswick Electric

As of 5:40 am on 11/19//2023
NOTHING has been done to address the situation I guess we will wait till someone’s child get fatally injured

This has been an issue for 24 years

Not fixed
Still a fatal accident waiting to happen
A buried utility box must be dug in so that children don’t continue to knock the PVC PIPE placed over the live wire

Still not properly secured contact the utility responsible for the buried electrical supply (Duke Progress) ask them to bring out a buried service utility Box a shovel and an employee that has been provided with training on how to safely use a shovel. If that is to difficult just drop off the utility Box in front of my door at 1008 Bradbury Court Leland NC. And I will dig the hole and place the box over the wire and in the hole with the Wire properly secure inside the Box

Or we can all sit back and wait for the inevitable WECT NEWS headline

Child dead in Leland
Electrocution on vacant property service wire not properly addressed for 3 years

The vacant lot is between 1005 and 1008 Bradbury Court look for a black PVC PIPE I placed over the electrical wire

Actually it’s been 5 years and still nothing has been done . Worst town management ever . We will just wait for someone gets hurt or electrocuted then Fran Weller and John will have A big news headline

Still to very moment 4/11/2024 10:20 pm a live wire is exposed on the vacant lot between 1005 and 1008 Bradbury Court in Leland is still not buried in an appropriate electrical box
If it is a matter that the town of Leland is short of cash maybe the Town manager could get off his grossly overpaid butt and dig the hole and place what is called an RPZBOX and properly secure the safety of all the children that play on the vacant lot before someone gets electrocuted

The wire is in a 4 inch plumbing pipe that I placed over the wire 5 years ago so it would not be exposed to the weather. The cap I placed on the pipe disappears regularly so I replace it . This is not a safe or proper enclosure for a wire (I have been told that it is the wire for a street light that was never installed.
Kids play on this lot they occasionally knock the pipe off and they replace it please have whoever is responsible for this place a proper secure utility box .
