News Notes

Business
  • Spectrum customers can expect a refund once services are re-activated, said the company vice president.

Development
  • Two mixed-use towers with retail + residential space could one day replace the Baby Bi-Lo in Greenville. However, the community has pushed back against this project and the last attempt to move the needle in June failed. The grocery store has stood vacant for 11+ years now. (Post and Courier Greenville)

🌳 The 411 on fallen trees

Avoid large upfront payments and always create a contract agreement when a tree removal service arrives to work. | Photo via Greenville Journal
It’s been nearly a month since Hurricane Helene caused significant damage through Greenville, and local groups are hard at work clearing out the destruction. Here’s what you need to know about the current efforts, and when you may see them in your own front yard.

Local businesses


Helene caused multiple trees to fall and local tree removal businesses are reportedly receiving 300+ calls per day. Companies like McKenzie Tree Co. and Carson Tree Company estimate that some removals could take months. As a result of these long wait times, be cautious of common scams, such as making large payments upfront to newer or unheard of businesses. Let us know your trustworthy, tree removal experts.
