Brief Bits

Due to a lack of business, there will be no meeting of the Wake Forest Planning Board in March. That was the formal announcement.

Should you think that signals a slowdown in growth and development, you would be wrong. All you have to do is look at last week’s article, The Growth Rate: Future home/commercial, to see the list of all the projects lined up for future consideration and possible construction. It is just that none of them were at the boil stage by late February to get on the agenda.

A superior court judge’s illness has delayed a court date for a suit with a lot of local interest. Bob Johnson’s suit against the Town of Wake Forest over the parking area between The Cotton Company building and B&W Hardware got underway Monday in Raleigh. Motions were heard and jury selection got underway before court closed for the day. That night, however, the sitting judge was taken ill and the case may not be heard until six weeks or two months from now.

Unnerving though it may be, Daylight Savings Time is just around the corner and will begin on Sunday, March 9. I always thought we waited for spring to actually arrive before we began saving daylight.

For anyone who would like to borrow a copy of the town’s latest update of its Capital Improvements Plan, the editor would be happy to loan hers. Just send a note to cwpelosi@aol.com.
