LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Are Target developers above the law in PTC?

F’ville must address dangers of Pye Lake dam collapse

On Sept. 18, I attended the Fayetteville City Council meeting on the stormwater issues. I also had the opportunity, in my capacity as president of the board of directors of the Lafayette Garden Homes Home Owners Association, to address you and the other council members on the dangers and fear that our almost 200 citizen in our community experience everytime a heavy rain comes along
