This Golden LEAF grant will support the completion of a redevelopment and reuse plan for the former Halifax County Airport site located west of Roanoke Rapids. The site is owned by Halifax County and Roanoke Rapids. UNC-CH will provide a SWOT analysis, conduct meetings throughout the County to discuss the findings of the SWOT analysis, identify potential economic clusters most appropriate for a targeted industrial development strategy, evaluate potential uses of the property, provide preliminary environmental assessment of the property, and share the redevelopment and reuse plan with the local leadership.
