BuildLabs backs out of business park (relevance: 100%, date: Sep 23, 2026)
NASHVILLE - An announced plan by the Long Island-based company BuildLabs to put a $12 million dollar precision-engineering facility on Lot 4 of the Nashville Business Center has withered on the vine, with the announcement last week that the town was getting its land back.
Randy Lansing, town manager, read through a Real Estate Conveyance Agreement at the Sept. 16th town council meeting, relaying that BuildLabs owner Punit Chugh had told town officials that the company was not going to be able to "meet the terms of the development agreement" for construction of the promised manufacturing facility.

Bailey couple releases new book of cemetery maps (relevance: 57.1%, date: Sep 23, 2026)
"Cemetery Maps of the Bailey Area with Family Notes" has recently been released by James A. and Margaret B. Bailey. The volume is shaped by the long‑standing challenge genealogists face when locating burial grounds on private land. Parcels may pass through several owners and the small cemeteries within them may be left unmarked, forgotten, or concealed by later improvements, with many now resting in former fields no longer worked, in woodlots that have thickened over decades, or along property lines redrawn more than once.

The 25th anniversary of 9/11 reminds us to remember what is really important (relevance: 57.1%, date: Sep 23, 2026)
We heard so much over the past few weeks about the events of September 11, 2001. If there's one thing that fateful day has taught us, it's that tomorrow is not promised.
If only we could apply that line of thinking to other areas of our life. The truth from the 9/11 tragedy is that many of us now realize that the nice cars, big homes, and many of the dreams that we have been chasing are just not all that important.

Spring Hope alleges breach of contract in Depot renovations (relevance: 57.1%, date: Sep 23, 2026)
SPRING HOPE- With time running out to use up an $800,000 state grant for Depot renovations, town officials are putting new pressure on the architectural company involved: the board of commissioners has voted to send a default letter to the bond company stating contractor breach of contract.
"This is a process and a first step. It does not mean that the contract is null or voided at this time," Jonathan Allen, town manager, explained to The Graphic.
During action taken after a closed session at the Sept. 8th board of commissioners' meeting, the board voted unanimously to send a default letter to the Performance Surety Bond Company.

Like it or not, the AI revolution is here (relevance: 57.1%, date: Sep 23, 2026)
Dear editor: AI is powerful, it can be used for good or bad depending on who is in control of it. That is why it makes more sense to me for the United States to lead the way instead of communist China.
In my humble opinion China is responsible for a lot of negative propaganda being feed to Americans about the down side of AI, and there are some down sides. Why the negative buzz from China? So, we will reject it, and they will advance it and control it.

We will certainly miss our Lee Roy (relevance: 57.1%, date: Sep 23, 2026)
Dear editor:
As Paul Harvey said, here's "The rest of the story."
Nashville recently lost a genuine kind-hearted community champion recently, Lee Roy Jones.
Lee Roy and I became like brothers.
Due to my infirmity, I was unable to get to the podium to speak at his funeral. I hope, in this letter, to relay how much he meant to me, and to Nashville.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences (relevance: 57.1%, date: Sep 23, 2026)
I'll be honest, I could not foresee that Ed Sheeran or Macklemore would ever be a topic in the Soapbox. As I hear more frequently from the more experienced generations these days, "we must be in the end times."
If you don't know who they are, Sheeran is a British pop music singer and Macklemore is a past-his-prime rapper. They were both involved in what's being called free-speech suppression, but that's not the case at all.

Is God Dead? - "Where the soul of man never dies" (relevance: 28.6%, date: Sep 23, 2026)
The German philosopher Karl Marx famously said religion was "the opium for the masses." Friedrich Nietzsche, Charles Darwin, and Sigmund Freud, along with a host of other notable thinkers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, were in adamant agreement. In fact, most materialists (those who believe there is nothing but material, non-spiritual things in the world) consider the Christian idea of a human soul enjoying eternal life after death as nothing more than a coping mechanism to soothe the cruel reality of our death and destruction.

Yard waste pickup schedule criticized (relevance: 28.6%, date: Sep 23, 2026)
NASHVILLE - Public complaints about the town's pickup schedule for curbside collection of yard waste and bulk trash are hitting town council ears, with a decision made last week to give the twice a month schedule- newly amended- another 60-day trial period.
In order to avoid having to hire additional public works personnel and to free up time for workers to attend to other public works tasks, town officials made the decision two months ago to change curbside collection from every week to the first and third weeks of the month.
