Top issues during term (5)(Development)
Bethel Presbyterian Church Expansion Rezoning
A major private investment by the congregation; the town gains sidewalk and bike easements along Bethel Church Road at no cost.
Proposed Cornelius Inn hotel market feasibility
A new upscale lodging and spa business would add tax base and jobs, but neighbors fear costs from traffic, safety, and lost rural character.
Washam Potts Road rezoning for 17-home subdivision
Dove Creek Sewer Easement Expansion
No excise tax; town grants the easement on its own land.
Smithville affordable housing
Town donates land at no cost; homes must serve households at 60-80% of area median income.
