The latest community survey reveals a town residents still love, alongside growing unease about traffic, growth, and where Holly Springs is headed next.
Sounds about right. There are issues with development that I do not like, that the city has zero or near-zero authority to control or mitigate thanks to a legislature determined to keep city government weak.
Town council can’t reject a development of anything without getting sued. Environmental standards can’t be stronger than state rules. Limits on making developments pay road improvements needed for development.
I saw nothing about the high taxes, extra fees. Nor what residents have constantly asked for: connective greenways to Harris Park & ATT and stupid high utility bills.

Can you give us an example?
Thank you for the summary
