Commissioners Oppose Proposed Location of Orange County ABC Store
Staffing transitions at Cooperative Extension discussed along with other business and recognitions
On Monday, August 17, two Caswell County Commissioners voted against a resolution opposing the proposed placement of an Orange County ABC Store near the Caswell County line on NC Highway 86 South at NC Highway 49.
Board Chairman Tim Yarbrough first raised the possibility of drafting such a resolution at the August 3 meeting, when he alerted Commissioners to the fact that the Orange County Planning Board was expected to discuss the proposal at its August 12 meeting. He expressed concern that an ABC Store located so close to the line might negatively impact Caswell's ABC revenue and create additional traffic concerns for a stretch of road already prone to car accidents.
