BACKGROUND
Gaston County owns several parcels along Business Park Court adjacent to Animal Care and Enforcement. County owned Parcel 100088 does not have Business Park Court road frontage. The purchase of Parcel 100094 will provide connectivity from the existing County-owned property to Business Park Court. The purchase will also allow Gaston County to construct an exit onto Business Park Court for an emergency fueling station approved as part of the FY 2023 budget. The emergency fueling station will provide a limited supply of reserve fuel for emergency vehicles in the event of unexpected fuel shortages.
Gaston Business Park Association representatives have agreed to sell Parcel 100094 (.16 acre) to Gaston County for $4,500. Approval of this Board Action authorizes the County Attorney to draft the necessary documents for property purchase and the County Manager or her designee to execute said documents on behalf of Gaston County.
