• Water Woes in Fuquay-Varina (indyweek.com) — Fuquay-Varina is facing a looming water shortage and is pursuing a major interbasin transfer that would draw over 6 million gallons a day from the Cape Fear River. The plan, now before a state commission, has sparked pushback from downstream communities worried about drought impacts, water quality, and economic growth, while town modeling claims minimal environmental effects and lower costs for local ratepayers. 
• Local Restaurant Inspections for Holly Springs, Apex and Fuquay-Varina (December 1st through December 15th) (hollyspringsupdate.com) — Fuquay-Varina diners can now see how local restaurants scored in recent health inspections, including two visits to Aviator Smokehouse and strong A grades for several others. The report lists exact scores, dates, and key violations so you can make informed choices about where to eat around town and nearby Holly Springs and Apex.
• Fuquay-Varina breakfast spot will be rebuilt after fire tore through it, owners confirm (cbs17.com) — A beloved Fuquay-Varina breakfast spot, Morning Hangar, was destroyed by a fire but its owners say they’ll rebuild a more modern restaurant on the same site. No one was hurt, employees can shift to other Aviator Brewing locations, and demolition is expected within three months as the company looks to expand its local “campus” presence.
