Proposed zoning would overwhelm community

There is a serious concern in the area where I live relative to the potential industrial rezoning of Guilford College Road near Hilltop Road and Piedmont Parkway.

We have to wonder how do we put a stop to the over-expanding commercialism.

We already have a supermarket, a bank, a dry cleaners and office condominiums at this intersection. These are neighborhood-friendly establishments.

Any further development is a desecration to the beauty of Guilford College Road and the neighborhood, not to mention the safety issues of excess traffic and people walking on our new sidewalks.

County commissioners, please do not allow greed to be the driving force when making this rezoning decision.
