Durham city councilman Howard Clement has suspended his effort to arrange a meeting between owners of an Adam & Eve sex-wares store and displeased neighbors.

Durham City Councilman Howard Clement is taking the lead in trying to bring an accord between owners of the Adam & Eve sex-merchandise business and citizens who want to keep their store from opening in south Durham.

“I don’t mind,” Clement said during Monday night’s council meeting.

If you frequent the area of Fayetteville Road and N.C. 54 you have
Bull's Eye's sympathies — and you've no doubt noticed construction
going on at the northwest corner, that narrow, formerly tree-covered
lot the City of Durham surplus-property office tried for years to
unload.

Well, somebody bought, and now some good Durham folk are in a stew about what's coming there.
