By the time Reidsville’s March 11, 2024, meeting officially began at 5 p.m., the city hall was overflowing with people, in part, because of a day-long presentation that had already attracted numerous residents an hour earlier. The presentation, which was structured as an interactive question-and-answer session, served to unveil a prospective constructive project aimed to beautify and renovate Reidsville, as well as provide defense against flood protection and other natural disasters. Should the project commence according to plan, it will be funded by the Community Change Equitable Resilience Technical Assistance Initiative provided by the federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which is specifically designated for disadvantaged and disaster-prone communities.
