Overturn rezoning for Guilford College Road

The Guilford County zoning board has seen fit to down-zone to industrial use a piece of residential property located on Guilford College Road immediately north of the Lowes Foods shopping center.

This rezoning is being appealed at the Guilford County commissioners’ May 21 meeting at 5:30 p.m.

This rezoning will be very detrimental to our community. It will be the first industrial zoning in a predominantly residential area. It will surely put at risk all the adjoining properties along Guilford College Road.

We have the convenience of some retail property in our area, but there is no reason to introduce industrial zoning.

It will do nothing but diminish the values of our homes and destroy the beauty of our neighborhoods.

I urge all residents along Guilford College Road and the neighboring areas to express their concerns by attending the meeting and by calling, writing or e-mailing all of the commissioners. Stand up and fight for the future of our neighborhood.
