An idea for a bumper sticker.

With everything else going all, the Greensboro City Council (as we speak) is considering high-powered developer Roy Carroll’s mixed-use development near the already-congested intersection of Horsepen Creek and Jessup Roads.Who else but PTIA board chairman Henry Isaacson is arguing the case, and Council member Robbie Perkins is abstaining.

Update Carroll gets a City Council special as his rezoning request is passed by a 7-0 vote, with Perkins abstaining and Mike Barber absent.

The council inquired about the widening of Horsepen Creek Road. Intersetingly enough, GDOT head Adam Fischer noted Horsepen Creek, though definitely growing was still under capacity. But Fischer cited the $26 million cost (where have I heard that figure before) as a problem, not to mention the stringent environmental regulations that have similarly held up the widening of New Garden Road.
