Description:

This grant provides funding to help Hoke County extend wastewater service to an undeveloped area along HWY 401 by boring under HWY 401, bringing sewer access to both sides of the highway. This northeastern section of the county is bisected by Hwy 401, which is the main road leading into Fayetteville. The goal of this project is to help Hoke County to capture economic activity from its most populated residential area and from motorists traveling along HWY 401. The first phase of development expects to bring a hotel, restaurants, county-owned parks and recreation facility, and other retail businesses. The second phase has the potential to create a health park that would include offices for medical providers and assisted living facilities. The project is expected to result in creation of more than 100 jobs. The county will provide local funds to complete the project.
