A neighbor reminded him that it wasnt what was good for the development that mattered most but what was best for the neighborhood. When will E. Martin Jewell, illustrious Councilman for the 5th district, get a clue that it is indeed what is best for the neighborhoods of the 5th district that really is the most important issue? He seems resolute to always strive for what is worst for the neighborhoods when he gets involved at all or when his vote is needed. What was the reason for this meeting anyway? they had already announced that the proposed rezoning had been scrapped from the planning commission agenda. Letters of endorsement have long been sent in from the neighborhood association and certain property owners on Cary. This truly does stink and is indicative of our broken government which you can help fix in November by electing a new Councilman.
