Davidson County faces growing pains

As a developer, I feel somewhat guilty of causing overcrowding in our school system. I am 100 percent in favor of charging impact fees to educate our children and provide housing for them. We all must recognize that this is becoming a major problem within Davidson County, and this issue must be addressed.

I commend the efforts of our commissioners for addressing this problem, and I feel that each citizen of Davidson County should give 100 percent support to our commissioners for their endeavor.

I realize sometimes decisions must be made that are not always politically popular. But the commissioners are doing the right thing.

Wow! What a refreshing perspective. It is unlikely to be echoed in Guilford county, but it's admirable when people look at the big picture and support something for the common good instead of a narrow interest.
