County fails to pact on Belmont land sale for new middle school
Gaston County commissioners spar over unused land beside Stuart W. Cramer High and Belmont Middle as a potential sale. The school board and the commission differ on long term planning and funding, with talks of a new $200 million school bond and countywide capital needs totaling over $125 million. The public meeting saw calls to approve the South Point Road property purchase, while current bond money and a past offer faced rejection. The plan could yield up to $300,000 in county profit if negotiated, but bond authorization expires in November.
