Commissioners face nearly 1,000 acre rezoning request (relevance: 100%, date: Feb 4, 2026)
LOUISBURG -- Franklin County commissioners will be asked to consider a rezoning that would make a nearly 1,000-acre development more dense.
Durham-based engineers Thomas & Hutton have petitioned Franklin County to rezone 990.78 acres on West River Road from Agricultural Residential to Residential-8, which allows for more dense development.
The primary differences between the two zoning categories are:

(relevance: 60.2%, date: Feb 2, 2026)
Louisburg, NC -- Sherry Stell Bell, 64, of Louisburg passed away on January 30, 2026 at SECU Hospice House in Smithfield, NC. Sherry was born on September 19, 1961 in Wake County to the late Bobby and Patricia Powell Stell.

Two weekends in a row of winter seems excessive! (relevance: 58.1%, date: Feb 4, 2026)
Okay, one wintry weekend spent inside awaiting the second-coming of the ice age -- which never arrived -- was fine, or at least tolerable.
At least there were a couple of good football games on the tube which provided a bit of distraction from watching the wild birds attack the feeders with gusto while we humans relaxed inside where it was toasty warm.
But two weekends in a row?
This is North Carolina -- and we shouldn't be exposed to that much winter in an entire season, let alone on consecutive weekends.

Corporate park dispute goes to mediation (relevance: 50.3%, date: Feb 4, 2026)
YOUNGSVILLE -- Plans for a corporate park still remain mired in litigation, nearly two years after town leaders approved a zoning change that allowed it to proceed.
The case has been assigned to mediation, though. And, failing an out-of-court resolution by April 7, the matter will go to trial in June.
In March 2023, Youngsville commissioners rezoned a 66.12-acre lot from residential to Corporate Park 1 -- the designation needed for Ichiban Fleming Road LLC to develop a 400,000-square-foot technical flex space at the intersection of Fleming Road and East Fleming Farm Drive.

Dispute over covenants heads to court (relevance: 31.1%, date: Feb 4, 2026)
LOUISBURG -- A case apparently holding up a Youngsville development is slated to appear in court next week.
A Charlotte developer filed a complaint last April, alleging that attempts to enforce and collect a monthly assessment fee -- as part of a disputed restrictive covenants -- has put their residential development in jeopardy.
In December 2021, MTS RAL LLC in Charlotte bought two properties -- 29 acres off Holden Road between Horseman's Trail and Richland Drive -- from Bypass East LLC and Mosswood Partners LLC.

Only a public outcry can stop ICE (relevance: 30.9%, date: Feb 4, 2026)
Dear editor: The chief federal judge in Minnesota slammed ICE last week, saying they violated almost 100 court orders in the state just in January alone. That is more than "some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence."
Judge Patrick J. Schiltz, a conservative jurist appointed by President George W. Bush, said "ICE is not a law unto itself...This list should give pause to anyone - no matter his or her political beliefs - who cares about the rule of law."
