Anyone can call customer service and find out the facts. There was an internal Duke Energy email for the customer service personnel in case people started calling into customer service.

My call was answered within one minute, the lady knew what I was talking about and clarified the postings on the property.



Per the internal email, there have been discussions to transfer the ownership a portion of the property (more or less the path) in order to transfer the liability........but the receiving parties have not been willing.
With all due respect, and I do respect you dewilson58. If I owned property that was being used as a cut through for years and decided to not allow this practice anymore I would post signs, put a article in the newspaper and most of all take down the 12 MPH speed limit signs next to the no trespassing signs. Before your conversation with Duke it would be perfectly obvious that the signs were placed to make you think to not go over the fence into the retention pond (fenced in) or the electrical grid behind the bushes (fenced in). There was a invasion of Golf Carts when I took a spin over there to check this out. They could block this off in about an hour with several barriers. I will respect their wishes. Thanks for the investigation.
