CARTER COUNTY, Tenn. (WJHL) — A new resort is still on the way for Watauga Lake, but it’ll just take a little extra time.
A groundbreaking ceremony was set for Oct. 17 on the property, located in Butler.
Carter County Mayor Rusty Barnett tells News Channel 11 the groundbreaking has been postponed for the time-being due to a wastewater permit.
Barnett says they’re working to address the permit and that a ground break is expected either the end of this year, or the first of 2020.
