Growth Challenges Facing Waxhaw and Union County
“We’re in a very challenging period right now, a very challenging period of growth and what you want in an environment like that is you want a team who’s got a lot of experience.”
WBTV Charlotte Interview
From the Union County 2050 Comprehensive Plan:
“Despite projections of tens of thousands of new residents in Union County over the next decade, Union County Public Schools does not project construction of any new schools solely for overcrowding in the next ten years, although it is developing plans to upgrade or replace old facilities.”
Union County Officials have been Kicking the Can down the road for too long. The construction of a new school cluster is twice the cost today as it was just 5 years ago, and it will be even more expensive tomorrow. Any elected official who’s paying attention to the growth trends would certainly be considering school expansion in Western Union County; but they’re clearly not thinking about our future.
The challenges we face are complicated and not simple.
