Gastonia Extends Bond Use For Street And Rankin Lake Upgrades
Gastonia voters approved a 27.4 million bond for streets and sidewalks on May 4. The city can issue two thirds bonds when principal is reduced, allowing 2.1 million next year plus 370 thousand from 2008 to fund Rankin Lake Park upgrades, with no Lineberger Park changes. Rankin Lake was the focus of the May 4 recreation referendum, which failed narrowly overall though support was strong in Rankin Lake area. Councilman Dave Kirlin notes Rankin Lake improvement as a long‑term priority within the Carolina Thread Trail plan. Michael Barrett can be reached at 704 869 1826.
