BACKGROUND:
Union County purchased approximately 38.35 acres of land in Wingate for the purposes of economic development. Parcels 09012003C, 09-012-010B, and 09-012-010D are located in the Town of Wingate’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) and are currently zoned RA-20. To support economic growth, create jobs, and attract new taxable investment, which is the highest and best use of this property, we are seeking to annex and rezone these parcels to a Conditional Light Industrial designation.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None.
