I love living here, playing here and boasting about what a great town it is. But I hate the way our downtown looks. The property at the intersection of Greensboro and Weaver streets (the proposed CVS site) is a disgrace. It is the primary intersection of our town, where thousands of people pass by every day, and it looks like hell \u00e2\u20ac\u201c and has for some time, with weeds everywhere, empty, rusted sign frames, some kind of nasty drain-protecting boom material right on the corner, etc.<br \/>\nI understand it is not town owned, but I believe it is the town\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s responsibility to make sure it is cleaned up. Where\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the pride? We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re out chasing Oprah to film in this town, and this kind of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153scenery\u00e2\u20ac\u009d is at the heart of our town square?\u00c2\u00a0It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s bad enough that we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve lived with many months of street construction along Weaver.\u00c2\u00a0This is a small lot, cleaning it up and keeping it clean does not take that much money or effort.<br \/>\nCome on all you newly (re)elected town officials, let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s make this happen.<\/p>\n<p>Bethaney Dale<br \/>\n<em>Carrboro<br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love Carrboro.
