Sadly, many of the folks that wanted the community center in the historic Old School quit coming to the meetings with the town because the town council would sit at the table having conversations amongst themselves, not listening or caring about what the citizens had to say. The school problems have divided the town; however, because of what the town did behind closed doors, now the town is being watched more closely than ever before. It is truly a sad time for the citizens of Cape Charles when their own town council and managers care more about developers than they care about the citizens. No community center. No basketball court. No parking for the playground.

It certainly doesn’t now — has this been overlooked?
