You might ask me the same question, I would prefer living in the city, now I have to deal with Bears and Beavers. In my case elderly in-laws is the main driver.
I get that, but seems strange to move to a rural area then complain about the lack of your preferred grocery store. It's not like it was a surprise or anything when you got here. :mrgreen:
Well out here in the hinterland we grows and kills our own! :jester: I do love the fig, pear, apple, and hopefully one day the peach trees!
Cary has some of the same problems. Beavers in drainage issues and bears wandering through. There was even a bear that stopped traffic at Southpoint Mall a couple of years ago.
It would seem that not everyone is looking forward to a Publix. http://www.wral.com/hundreds-of-nor...ppose-grocery-store-retail-proposal/13210963/
"Neighbors argue they have nothing against Publix, they just don't want the grocery store built on the land."
Nor anything else that impacts traffic or their current way of life. A version of NIMBY where they want development to stop once they have a house with a "private" park owned by someone else as a buffer. The same type of opposition was seen when The Streets at Southpoint was proposed.
If they really don't want that Publix I'd be happy to have it right here in Clayton! http://www.wral.com/residents-expec...t-proposed-north-raleigh-strip-mall/14051896/
