Do Good Foods abandons Selma plan after bankruptcy
Do Good Foods announced a Selma plant to turn surplus groceries into chicken feed with about 100 workers and $60,000 average pay. The project never started as cash flow and investment issues sank the effort. KDC Agribusiness filed for bankruptcy and later liquidation amid a $300 million trade secret lawsuit, leaving the Eastfield site vacant. The building has been relisted, with hopes for a new company later this summer.

Gun curbs go too far group says
SELMA NC gun rights group Grass Roots North Carolina says Selma’s ban on weapons in public parks oversteps state law. Attorney Ed Green argues state statute preempts local regulation of firearms except where allowed, noting the broader use of recreational facilities and excluding greenways and paths. The council met on March 12 to discuss the city ordinance.
