The Pike County courthouse is one of three Pike edifices on the National Historic Register. It’s in downtown Zebulon, the county seat. The courthouse square is a focal point and its park like setting is an invaluable asset to the community. The courthouse was built in 1895.

I sure hope the renovation does not change the 116 year old character and outside appearance. That would be quite sad.

What would be sad is if you developed arthritis and could not post anymore. Geeeezzzzz you are about as dumb as a box of rocks.

So Don, the citizens were promised the deal would not exceed $2.5 million, can you count? $400,000 over! Are you using a Obama calculator?

Try this; 1 pecan + 1 pecan still equals nuts!

Good point, he can not explain unless he has notes and is at a town hall meeting or a civic club meeting.

Rocks have longevity.

Very true and if you polish them they turn into precious jewels like diamonds. Then if you chunk them out as rocks they turn into stale biscuits and teacakes.

YOU GO GIRL

all of you need to remember that don was part of the crew that purchased land to build a new court annex before getting the splost passed the first time.

he has no desire to manage the taxpayers money only spend it.

Meeting goer, it was nice to see you at the meeting yesterday although you contributed nothing. We expect more from planning board members like INPUT. You are a simple showhorse, not a workhorse. Or maybe you have a reason for missing meetings like, no free ride.

Well that did it for me supporting the overage on the bid.
