BACKGROUND

The Gaston County Board of Commissioners (BOC) has supported economic development for over 20 years in an effort to diversify and expand the tax base in the County.  The BOC recognizes the impact of the recession and in order to promote new investment, the BOC proposes to amend the County Investment Grant Program again in 2026 to include a 50% grant based on net new taxes paid on investments within the parameters of the grant program.
