Hello, Chatters— Regarding Mr. Galin’s “What should we expect at Disney’s Asteria?” Well, I suggest you watch the short video, “Celebration Florida: The Creepy Town Disney Built” to get a good idea. Think of Disneyland turning into a “Nightmare on Elm Street.” youtube.com/watch?v=rRtDEvxuW0U Common Sense Carl From: Sent: Thursday, December 28,Continue Reading
I still wonder where they will be getting their water. Where is wolf speed getting their water. Deep drilling which would affect wells in western Chatham? Why hasnt there been regulations for the GenX type chemicals that western Chatham is now polluted with? Seems a lot has been ‘over looked’Continue Reading
Chatham County, particularly the town of Pittsboro, finds itself on the brink of a significant transformation with the recent announcement of Disney’s plan to establish the Asteria residential community within the parameters of Chatham Park. I sat down with Eric Andrews of Realty World to see if he could shedContinue Reading
It never ceases to amaze me how people from “the City” move into nice rural areas, like Pittsboro, and then proceed to ruin them. Consider this: “. . . residents will have access to big-city amenities with the charm of a small town.” That is what is commonly known asContinue Reading
36 years ago chatham county roads were in great condition. The sides picked up of trash and the coverys along side of the roads kept clear. This is no longer true. Why? Our taxes have increased so why has the service gone down hill. Especially the roads connecting garbage centers.Continue Reading
Chatham County Commissioners Approve 2024-30 Capital Improvement Program Why are the taxpayers shouldering 47.6 M to build a new elementary school in Chatham Park. Why are the developers not paying for this? Can someone explain this. Fed up with the ever increasing property taxes while developers get rich. And really,Continue Reading
I posted a video of the runoff from the commercial property next to Northwood across the school’s cross-country trail. It was brought to the attention of the Chatham County staff. The county issued a notice of violation to the developer. I understand corrective actions were taken last week Stopped byContinue Reading
Thanks to Gene for the video documentation of the run-off from the CPI property onto the Northwood track/trail. It is important to realize that run-off accumulates. Run-off accumulates not just on high school track and trail, but other kinds of “run-off” — whether it be air pollution, water pollution, orContinue Reading
Virtually, I just went on a wonderful walk and talk with Gene and Eric Williams. I had no idea such a great trail through the woods exists at the high school. So, early this morning I watched the video on my phone as I had a cuppa wake-up brew. AndContinue Reading
It will be interesting to see what the removal of mature trees will do for our 13 year cicada emergence that should be happening in 2024. The last one was an amazing act of nature within the city because of old those trees. One thing for certain is with theContinue Reading
Not sure of which one of you needs to be aware of this. Apparently the erosion controls Chatham Park Investors have in place in the commercial area butting up against the Northwood cross-country trail are not working sufficiently. Here’s a video of that part of the trail from this morninghttps://youtu.be/JVt4rtNGZkUContinue Reading
It’s not the outsiders moving into Chatham County that bother me nearly as much as those wanting to buy my land. I get several offers every month offering to buy my land “because they have some money they would like to invest in land.” Their ridiculous offers are less thanContinue Reading
I have always admired the woods in front of Northwood, but change is a-coming. For years I have heard discussions of what could be in front of Northwood and wondered why the County did not work with Chatham Park and Mosaic to build public infrastructure or the new County HQContinue Reading
The announcement that we’re getting a Hampton Inn is another sign of bigchanges for Chatham. I was thinking: This could be heaven or this could behell. Will there be pink champagne on ice at the grand opening? Date: Wed, 4 May 2022 09:41:56 -0400From: Steve SmithSubject: HotelContinue Reading
Mr. Dykers correctly pointed out that I stated I am not pro-growth. I should not have added that to my post. I know growth is inevitable, especially in this area…not what I would choose, but it was our decision to live here so we have to take the good andContinue Reading
