The Return of the Rake: A Leafy Tale of Lost Services and Fall Frustrations
Spring in Greensboro brings the beauty of green leaves fluttering in the breeze—but don’t let them fool you. Come fall, those same leaves will turn into a backyard burden, and thanks to the City Council’s decision to cut loose leaf pickup, you’ll be stuck raking, stuffing bags, or paying out of pocket—again. Nicky Smith knows the struggle (he doesn’t like picking up leaves either), and he’s running for City Council in District 4 to bring common-sense services like leaf collection back to the people. This fall, let’s clean up more than just our yards—let’s clean up City Hall.
We Cannot Let the American Hebrew Academy Campus Sit Dormant
The former American Hebrew Academy campus on Hobbs Road—once a premier educational institution—is now a symbol of government waste and growing local concern. After the federal government spent nearly $242 million to prepare the site for migrant housing, not a single child was ever housed there. Now, with the property back in the hands of its Chinese-linked owners and no clear plans in sight, residents fear the campus may fall into disrepair. City Council candidate Nicky Smith is calling for immediate action to find new ownership and put the campus to productive use before it’s too late.
