Mayoral Candidate Amanda Ashley says she wants to create a town size limit.

With radical ideas for the town of Carrboro, mayoral candidate Amanda Ashley eschews politics as usual.

She said that’s not her style.

“I’m running as a citizen,” she said, “not a politician. I’m not beholden to anyone and I’m not constrained by having to fit in. I can consequently have new ideas put before the voters.”

Her central new idea is a town size limit and population cap to keep Carrboro’s small-town character intact.
