Congratulations Mr. Leonard!
This county needs more people on this side of the county looking out for our interests. You will do a fine job, I’m sure. Please DO NOT let the transplants of this county rule you and or change your mind on anything that you feel will benefit the WHOLE county, not just Pittsboro and that surrounding area. I was proud to say I was from here about 20 years ago, but not anymore. I am ashamed of the politics and one-sidedness that makes up this great county now. It appalls me to know that people who are not from here are running this county into the ground. We need voices from all over the county to be heard and acknowledgement to be given.
Just stay the way you are and be the best you can be for this side of the county!
Congratulations again and Good Luck!
