📰 News we're reading

• Albemarle police chief provides report on Greyhound bus stop (thesnaponline.com) — Albemarle’s police chief says a month-long review shows the Greyhound bus stop on First Street is not causing ongoing safety or quality-of-life problems downtown. After examining video and on-site observations, officers reported almost no loitering or littering, so council members opted to share the findings with concerned business owners rather than push for changes to the stop.
