City to reinstate Veterans Day as paid holiday in Gastonia
Gastonia will grant a paid day off on Friday November 10 for Veterans Day observance since the holiday falls on a Saturday this year. City officials note other nearby jurisdictions offer it as a paid holiday and former practice included Veterans Day before it was removed to add a Friday after Thanksgiving. Council members cite veteran ties and city service during observances, while employees gain annual sick days and rising vacation days beyond 11 paid holidays.
