Tuesday morning, March 20, 2007

Here are the top stories our staff is working on today:

- County addresses Brawley congestion: At this evening's public meeting, Iredell County commissioners will consider plans for a building permit cap on Brawley School Road and a minimum housing ordinance in the county. Both will likely be controversial and require a future public hearing. (To learn more or contribute to this story, contact reporter Daniel Goldberg at dgoldberg@statesville.com.)

- Lucky to be alive: A woman who fell while getting out of her car and could not get up survived frigid overnight temperatures earlier his month when a passing motorist heard her cries for help from more than 400 feet away and called 911. Sheriff's deputies found the woman, who had been unable to move for 12 hours. She is still in the hospital recovering.
