The Eagles gas station and service center seems to have given up the ghost and sold out to the “Refuel” corporation.
Eagles were originally approved by Pittsboro Town to build, then the Town attempted to rezone the area and pull the permit. Evidently, Eagles fought for their rights granted by the original permit and eventually established business.
In order to satisfy the PBO Town Commissioners, they were forced to build backwards, with the gas pumps and street market side of the building were mandated to face the woods in back. What faced the street was the brickfaced, vendor end of the building. This is not a business model in any book I’ve read.
I understand that the Town occasionally shows the business sensibilities of a cinder block, but to cynically play with other people’s money like that is beyond the pale.
