The Guilford commissioners must make the logical choice, not the monetary one. As a resident of Greensboro, it perturbs me to learn that a private, gated, golf-course community is set to be developed directly next door to the fledgling Haw River State Park by an out-of-state developer. Apparently, our county commissioners will be the deciding factor in this zoning issue. This is a scary thought, considering that all our commissioners see is tax revenue from a few new homes.

Please look at the big picture here. The park needs more land to grow in order to accommodate our ever-growing population.

Trapping it with a golf course community that will do more harm than good to the river is not the answer. Please support the Haw River State Park. (citizensforhawriversp.org)
