Why I chose the website name NOT2LATE.ORG
I still believe the citizens of Chatham County have a chance to preserve what makes this a special place to live and raise a family.
We have an opportunity, and I hope it won’t be the last, to stop the encroachment on our way of life from becoming nothing more than a playground for large corporations and developers to profit from. Unfortunately, this is what’s happening with the majority approval of our current Board of Commissioner members. The BOC members say this is progress. I’m all for progress. But it must be done in a thoughtful, measured way.
All citizens of Chatham County, regardless of party affiliation should be concerned about the speed at which the NG Pipeline, VinFast, Data Center, Housing Developments, etc. are being shoved down our throats with no regard for the property rights and monopolization of our natural resources. The liberal/ radical democrats currently hold all five BOC seats. I am running for district 5 as a conservative voice and John Crowell is running for district . We must have balance. Please support both of us so you will have a voice on November 3rd about the future of Chatham County before it is too late. The choice is up to you.
