What’s the future of transportation in North Carolina and in Cabarrus County? Why are we adding roundabouts and diverging diamonds? What’s going on with The Grounds at Concord, the former Philip Morris property? What’s the latest in our municipalities?
Join us for the Chamber’s State of the Region Summit, presented by DecisionPathHR, from 7:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 12 at Kannapolis’ Laureate Center to hear the latest on transportation and economic development. Tickets are $30.
North Carolina Department of Transportation's Western Deputy Chief Engineer, Louis Mitchell, will give an overview of current and future transportation projects and how that impacts Cabarrus County. NC GO! Chair Marc Finlayson will discuss the future funding challenges to transportation and infrastructure and what transportation disrupters might look like in ten to 15 years.
Janet LaBar, president and CEO, Charlotte Regional Business Alliance, will discuss how their new business model works and supports our region and the partnership they have with our Economic Development Corporation and the unique opportunities we have in this region. Cabarrus EDC Director Robby Carney will update on the many, many projects in their pipeline and the potential The Grounds of Concord could bring to this community.
We will finish the day with updates from Cabarrus County, Concord, Kannapolis, Harrisburg, Mt. Pleasant and Midland.
