BACKGROUND
The City of Gastonia and Gaston County continue to support proper planning and orderly development of the community and the Corridor Study of North Carolina Highway 7, from East New Hope Road to West Franklin Boulevard, in Gastonia will greatly assist the City’s development efforts by providing a way forward in an efficient manner. The study will augment the existing Gaston County sponsored Public-Private Site Development Initiative (PPSDI) Study of North Carolina Highway 7 Corridor in Lowell and will help identify additional private sector development opportunities for flexible space and small business locations. The EDA between the City of Gastonia and Gaston County will allow for meaningful input and sharing of information will be written and agreed to by all parties.
