It seems that we have a real battle shaping up in Weddington this Fall. Will the forces of moderate commercial development prevail, or will the forces for the absolute denial of any more commercial development prevail?
This one is worth watching because Weddington has not really had this kind of tension in an election in a long time. It marks what I consider a sign that the town is finally maturing and accepting what it is rather than pretending that it is something that it never was and could never be.
I never understood the rational of so many who claimed that they are good free market driven supporters of business and yet denied business to flourish in their own midst. It is not like Weddington is not big enough for quiet, secluded neighborhoods and a reasonable business district.
I was born and raised in what is now Weddington and even though I am a Wesley Chapel reisdent of 31 years, I can not get the Weddington of my earlier days out of my head and my soul. It is and always will be home.
I am glad to see that forces for reasonable business development are in the fight this election. Weddington needs for these people to be more vocal.
