Thoughts from the edge of the county

Buckhorn Village project in the Indy

I meant to add this a while back. This is an article from the Independent Weekly out of the Triangle about the proposed Buckhorn Village project. If you know anything about the Independent, then you know that it is unabashedly liberal. However, this is worth a read just to get an idea of why Orange County leaders aren’t too hot on the project. It balances the developers’ “pie in the sky” projections for jobs and tax revenue. Plus, it asks one question that has always bothered me about the plan: Who does want to live above a store overlooking asphalt in the middle of nowhere?
