Stantonsburg property rezoned, annexed for 500 homes

The Greenville City Council on Thursday rezoned and annexed nearly 196 acres of property along Stantonsburg Road west of town despite concerns neighboring residents had about flooding and the impact on their properties. The project developer, Walton North Carolina LLC, requested the property be rezoned from rural residential under Pitt County jurisdiction to residential agricultural under city jurisdiction for the construction of about 500 homes. After debate, the council unanimously approved the rezoning request for the property, located along along the southern right-of-way of Stantonsburg Road about 200 feet west of Ellwood Drive; it then approved the annexation. In other business, the council also rezoned a .16 acre storefront property on the southern right-of-way Dickinson Avenue, about 60 feet southwest of Ficklen Street, from downtown commercial fringe to downtown commercial. It annexed 5 acres located along the southern right-of-way of Dickinson Avenue about 400 feet west of Frog Level Road. The property is owned by Greenville Utilities Commission, which plans to locate a water tower on the property. It also approved a municipal agreement with the N.C. Department of Transportation for a citywide traffic signal upgrade. The project, which is expected to begin in 2028, will cost nearly $15.5 million.

PINETOPS — D.J. Mayo threw for four touchdowns and ran for one as SouthWest Edgecombe moved on in the North Carolina High School Athletic Association Class 4A playoffs with a 40-21 victory over Central Davidson in the second round Friday night at home. The No. 6 seeded Cougars improved to 8-3 overall following a first-round bye and will travel to Clinton next week for a battle against the No. 3 seed Dark Horses (8-3), who squeezed past Southwest Onslow 17-16 in their second-round contest. Central Davidson, the No. 22 seed, ended its season at 4-8 overall. The Spartans opened the game with a 65-yard drive in 18 plays, chewing up a little more than nine minutes of the first quarter. Keith Leonard’s one-yard TD run and the extra point from Henry Duran gave the visitors from Lexington a 7-0 lead with 2:56 left in the first quarter. That proved to be Central Davidson’s only lead of the night. SouthWest Edgecombe answered with a 53-yard drive after recovering the short kick. The Cougars needed just seven plays, with the kickstarter being a 14-yard pass from Mayo to Tavion Dickens coupled with a facemask penalty. Mayo later found Makhi Jones on an
