Closing Bradshaw Quarry places a disproportionate financial and logistical burden on a single <br /> community that has no local alternative to handle its trash. Please remember that citizens are <br /> struggling with tight budgets, too. <br /> Chief Tommy Holmes of the Orange Grove Fire Department and Kathleen Hoffmann of <br /> Orange County Voice have agreed to coordinate community interests and will work with you <br /> and the Commissioners. Hopefully they can help you resolve this issue quickly and easily. <br /> There is a win-win here. Please work with us to find it. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Residents of Bingham and Cheeks Township including: <br /> Apple Mill Neighbors, Bradford Ridge Subdivision, Buckhorn/ELG Neighbors, Cane Creek <br /> Baptist Church, Carolina Concerned Citizens (Oak Grove Church, Nick's, BQ, and others) <br /> Cascade Forest Homeowners Association, Collins Creek Neighbors, Covered Bridge <br /> Neighbors, Dimmocks Mill Neighbors, Frog Level Community (Arthur Minnis/Dodson's), Harry's <br /> Market at White Cross, Heritage Families and Farms (Sykes Family Farms, Holmes Family & <br /> Farms, Kirby Family, Kirk Family Farm, Stanford Farm), Hunters Woods Neighbors, <br /> Lloydtown/Morrow Mill Loop, Maple View Farm and Agricultural Education Center, Mebane <br /> Oaks Road Neighbors, Mt.
