City Manager Sees Growth Potential For Aiken
Aiken city manager Roland Windham told the Greater Aiken Chamber of Commerce breakfast that growth in industry and population is possible as water and sewage capacity expands at the Aiken-Verennes Industrial Park and a longer runway is planned for Aiken Municipal Airport. He noted higher sewage costs due to cuts at Graniteville Company and United Merchants, and highlighted traffic concerns on the Whiskey Road Corridor under ARTS council study. He cited a tax rise linked to vehicle registration as contributing to last year’s 98 percent tax collection rate.
