Most of the study area addresses historic neighborhoods and road
corridors that are located between major new developments and
growth areas. Recent rapid growth has created new development
related pressures on existing communities and infrastructure. These
new developments are carefully planned and proceed through an
orderly review and approval process. Existing neighborhoods have not
benefited from this same level of investment and design and sometimes suffer from the effects of increased development surrounding
them. In this public planning process, managed by the Town of
Huntersville, the pre-existing communities have been given a voice
and opportunity to shape their future. Recommendations include
public investment in infrastructure and the creation of private development opportunities.
