I've seen firsthand the drastic changes that have come with rapid development and population growth here in NC. The cost of housing is skyrocketing, making it increasingly difficult for locals to afford homes. Now, we face another threat - Disney's plans to build a housing community in Pittsboro.

This proposed development not only threatens the affordability of our homes but also risks further wildlife and habitat destruction. North Carolina is already grappling with an influx of people due to companies like Apple and Amazon establishing their presence here. Our state is growing too fast; our infrastructure and environment are struggling to keep up.

Pittsboro has maintained its local charm amidst this growth - something we hold dear and want to preserve. This new development would drastically alter the character of the town.

We understand that change is inevitable but it should not come at the expense of those who call this place home or the natural beauty that surrounds us. We urge Disney to reconsider their plans for this housing community in Pittsboro.

Please join us in telling Disney that we value our homes, our environment, and our local charm more than another housing development. Sign this petition today!
