Editor’s Note: Mary Ann Powell-Goins, like myself-remembers when Shelby won the All-American City title and ALL of Cleveland County was growing by leaps and bounds. Now, the State of North Carolina calls us a “dying county.” And we are a dying county by all measures. This is what Mary Ann Powell-Goins has to say about it. Thank you, Mary Ann, for your keen insight and long overlooked prospective.

Excellent comprehensive reporting on the Green cases and assessment. This is a disgrace to have happen in Shelby and Cleveland County. The city fathers who worked to bring progress that made Shelby an All-American City would never have allowed such corruption to be entrenched as we are seeing now has evidently happened. Shameful. Decency and justice must be restored to this town.
You go Mary Ann!!!
