March 21. Greenberg Gibbons Properties, the commercial developers behind the business park proposal on Bailey Road, will hold another community meeting to respond to questions about the project.
Their revised plan—it was withdrawn in July of 2023—reduces the number of buildings from five to four.
It also:
±Reduces the square footage by over 10,000 square feet
±Increases landscaping setbacks from 30 feet to 40 feet
±Adds green space and public amenities.
±Addresses an existing sight distance safety hazard at a current Bailey Road Park entrance.
Attend
The meeting will be held at 6 pm April 9 at Cornelius Town Hall.
Quotable
“We’re doing it to keep everyone as much in the know as possible,” said Drew Thigpen, of Greenberg Gibbons.
Hey Drew, we already are “in the know” and don’t want it. You know as well as the rest of us that your business park will cause nightmare traffic. Can’t alleviate that with a pickleball court.

It doesn’t change the TIA by one bumper.
I’m wondering why Drew hasn’t considered traffic from the Industrial park onto Bailey’s Road will be next to impossible. I consider myself a courteous driver giving way to another driver to proceed ahead of me.
My generosity will not be extended to the Industrial park traffic. We all know there will be no new set of traffic lights either.
