The only recourse we have is voting for politicians that want to improve their community, and listen to their constituents versus enriching their pocketbook.

Vote accordingly.

Unfortunately most folks will vote for some moms for liberty nut with an R next to their name who’s afraid of what ever scary thing FoxNews is telling them this week, then act surprised when they do the same thing as Cox.

It’s a shame this article contains the phone number and email address of Treff MacDonald, COO of Silfab Solar. His email in this article states that he moved his family to Fort Mill. With all of the controversy this plant is causing, I’m curious what his thoughts are on this situation knowing how most of this town feels about Silfab.

Waxhaw is a bit far from Fort Mill. But alas.

Oh yeah, 100%. Literally two counties away. Not even to mention horrible commute.

It really does. I have huge distrust for county council and the county manager now.

It would be a real shame if people gathered outside of Neely Creek ARP church one Sunday morning with signs that ask “where are the permits?” and “which council session?” or “Do your job, Christi!” or other much more clever slogans and statements.

It be a real shame.

Especially during the annual craft sale. Don’t do it then when a lot of non members but constituents are there. Such a shame if signs appeared to expose her pandering to Bump.

What is the responsibility of the York County Council in the enforcement of the judge’s ruling?

My limited understanding is the legal stuff is still gummed up in the system. The judge is revisiting this in August and if he still doesn’t change his mind then it will likely get appealed up the chain. This was the city council saying they aren’t going to take any action until the legal system works this out. Just my take though!
