Comments on: Olive Baptist Gift To Charity On Hold For Century Council Approval http://www.northescambia.com/2013/09/olive-baptist-gift-to-charity-on-hold-for-century-council-approval Local News for Molino, Bratt, McDavid, Century, Walnut Hill, Cantonment Thu, 09 Apr 2026 15:18:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: David Huie Green http://www.northescambia.com/2013/09/olive-baptist-gift-to-charity-on-hold-for-century-council-approval/comment-page-1#comment-224719 David Huie Green Wed, 11 Sep 2013 22:44:11 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=152090#comment-224719 REGARDING: “I read it was a problem because of it being in a Historical district” Nope. The historical district question was settled in favor of replacement. The problem lies in “The building is owned by the non-profit Carver Community Center Association, Inc.” and a mother (the president) and daughter (the director) disagreed as to whether or not they had approved accepting the gift. The mother said they had not met to decide no matter if her daughter said it was okay. David for cooperative families with love and kindness REGARDING:

The whole place appears as though it has seen a long chronology of history. As far as councils and committees go, never look a gift horse in the mouth and this is one is a no brainer.

What is best for the building? It is there to support and enhance the quality of life for the youth and community. New windows are not what's needed. TLC is what's needed sell the windows invest in an expert who restores historical buildings. All that title slinging is not worth a hill of beans. If you really cared about the center you could see pass all the politics and bologna. It is time to do the right thing or let someone who can handle the vision do the job. Someone who can let the government, the city council and anyone else who is not blessing and adding to the mission and vision of the center take their mess.

This is why people don't want to give anymore. What a great gift to the community and people are going to question how the new windows are going to make the old, chipped paint, run down building look. Everyone wants to be the boss.
