For those of you not familiar with our area Carolina Forest is a mega development that has and will continue to choke the infrastructure of our county.  That being said International Paper (the developers of Carolina Forest) announced another mega development in our area Carolina Station. 

Folks, I'm not against developers or development.  I developed property and advise others daily on developing their property; However, I would like to see this done responsibly.  International Paper promises to learn from the mistakes of Carolina Forest, but promises are often made and forgotten.  I own property adjacent to this project and would love to see it's value skyrocket.  I don't plan on ever selling it, but I like the fact the bank thinks its valuable.  18,000 homes, That is around 50,000 people, on 6,000 acres.  Do the numbers.  It's a monster project to undertake.  Let's make sure we do it the right way the first time that is all we ask....

Stay tuned to this blog I promise to keep you all up to date on the rezoning meetings.  If you would like to come the public is invited.  First meeting in Nov. 1, 2007 Conway Court House on second ave in conway, SC.
