Subject: How Chatham Co will move forward.
I do not think it is reasonable for folks to post that one side or the other is for or against the megasite in Western Chatham. It appears to me that if the State were to bring a large automotive manufacturer to our area the elected officials would work with them regardless of who is in office.
The bigger questions revolve around governing philosophy and quality of life. If we build a community that invests in our people and our infrastructure and our environment we will have no problem competing with other counties and regions.
However, if we are perceived as mean spirited, lack critical infrastructure, fail to invest in our educational system and allow our environment, especially water, to become despoiled—we will not attract 21st century manufacturing operations.
