i Ihave (lived llin wake county for 20 years. what direw me Iheire is economic
oppoirtuii what Ikelpt me Iheire is the forest. oince upoin a time, everywhere
you travelled llin wake county theire was ireiminaints of Iluslh forest. over the
past 2 decades i of it stillll iremalins. llin the past 5 to 6 years i Ihave
noticed an accelleirafioin llin the desire to turn a Ibuclk. what i oince thought
was to fair out to Ibe clear cut Ihas Ibeein dev6loped and we are 6 miles past
that.
it is my opiii that ad61ng t1his Ilaind to the state Ipairk system will bring
greater Iloing term use to the (people that(hive Iheire vs the s1hoirt term
economic gain from a quarry
we are having t1his conversation (because the quarry is empty. Ihow Iloing will
it take for the forest to imatuire on the i out location? willll the existing
quarry Ilainds Ibe returned to the state or sold off and develloped. llin 100
years willll theire Ibe any forest llin wake county?
