Carrboro: Pride Parades, Budgets, and Cemeteries

97.9 the Hill’s Aaron Keck spoke with Carrboro Mayor Damon Seils on Friday, September 22. They discussed this week’s Town Council meeting, including a new master plan for Westwood Cemetery and a discussion of how to restrict gas-powered landscape vehicles. (Best bet: stronger noise ordinances, or else offering incentives to people who switch.) Also, Seils discussed the newly-passed state budget, the upcoming Carrboro Music Festival, the ongoing Bolin Creek Greenway survey, and his plans to march in this weekend’s Durham Pride Parade (despite the likely rain). Conversations With the Mayors is an ongoing series on “News on the Hill” where host Andrew Stuckey visits with the local government leaders who help shape our communities. Each Tuesday he visits with Hillsborough Mayor Jenn Weaver; Wednesdays feature a conversation with Chair of the Orange County Commissioners Jamezetta Bedford; Thursdays feature Chapel Hill Mayor Pam Hemminger, and Fridays include a conversation with Carrboro Mayor Damon Seils.
