What’s up with all the litter in Haywood?

To the Editor:

Just an observation that I am sure others have made also, but what about all the trash along the roadside all over our beautiful Haywood County? People what is going on? What happened to all the volunteer groups that have their signs posted for being responsible for those areas? All along N.C. 209, Richland Creek, the access roads, it’s crazy. Soon the summer growth will creep over to hide some of the garbage, but this has got to stop. No wonder tons of junk winds up in Lake Junaluska. Please stop throwing trash out of your window. It is a shame and a big eyesore.

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home.
