Lincolnton-Lincoln County Regional Airport ~ Iron Station, NC

Lincolnton-Lincoln County Regional Airport

Iron Station, NC

If you have been reading my past blog posts you know that Denver is my home. You also know that I don’t think it gets much better than Denver or the Lake Norman area for a small town feel. So if you have been thinking of moving to the area ….. here’s another good reason why our area may be a good fit for you and your family and/or your business or future business.

Lincolnton-Lincoln County Regional Airport located in Iron Station on the out skirts of Denver and Lincolnton is about to get a new $1.2 million terminal. The 4,700 square feet, two-story building is scheduled for completion early next year. This will be nearly double the size of the current facility that was first opened more than two decades ago.

The new facility will have upgraded accommodations for pilots, comfortable waiting rooms for passengers, and a state-of-the-art computer system. Lincolnton officials are hoping the new airport will impress businesses considering Lincoln County as a new home and/or it should promote growth of industry around the perimeter of the airport in the years ahead.

If new funding permits the airport has future plans to add additional hanger space and a 500 foot runway extension. For more information about airport services, space, and facts please refer the Lincoln County Regional Airport website.

See you in Denver!

Water Restrictions Continue for Lincoln County ~ North Carolina

Water Restrictions Continue for

Lincoln County ~ North Carolina

Just a reminder to everyone in Lincoln County our water restrictions that were put in place about two years ago, do to the drought of 2007 that brought a 18” below normal rainfall are still in effect even though we have been getting a lot of rain at times.

There are several factors as to why we have been told that we need to continue the restrictions. Various reasons given are that forecasters are predicting a dry winter, the water supply still hasn’t recouped from the drought, and the western part of the county hasn’t seen substantial rainfall as the eastern part.

So the county is asking people, who need to, only water their lawns two days a week and to continue to conserve when possible.

Promises of 25 new jobs in Lincoln County, NC . . . SENNEBOGEN North America

SENNEBOGEN North America is coming to Lincoln County with promises of 25 new jobs to the area. Last July SENNEBOGEN North America, based in Charlotte, announced their plans to expand into Lincoln County. Investing $5.1 million in their 53,000 square foot parts distribution, training, and technical support center. The building is being built just off Highway 16 and Old Plank Road in the Lowesville area of East Lincoln County near Julius Blum Company. The facility is expected to be operational early this year (2009).

SENNEBOGEN North America employees who may be new to the area will not have to worry about housing, schools, or shopping. With some of the newer neighborhoods just around the corner or a few miles down the road there is plenty to choose from. The Lincoln County school system is one of the BEST around and there are private schools and a charter school as well not too far away. Shopping is not a problem either with the bustling new area of shopping at Highway 16 & Highway 73 and not to far away from Birkdale in Huntersville.

SENNEBOGEN North America couldn’t have picked a better location with it’s proximity to Charlotte, Lake Norman (Denver, Huntersville, Cornelius), Gastonia, and Hickory. For recreation you have the largest lake in North Carolina… Lake Norman at your back door. If golf is your thing you have several private and public courses to enjoy like Verdict Ridge, Cowans Ford, Westport, Birkdale, and River Run to name a few.

SENNEBOGEN is a 50 year old German company who entered the North American market in 2000; thus created SENNEBOGEN North America and has since become a market leader in the material handling industry. SENNEBOGEN offers a complete range of purpose-built machines to suit virtually any heavy lift or pick and carry application. They give credit to their continued success on the ability to recruit outstanding regional sales managers, which in turn grows their list of distributors, who support SENNEBOGEN sales and service across the Americas, ensuring the highest standard of professional machine support and parts availability.

Let me be one who welcomes SENNEBOGEN North America to our community. Here’s to wishing you continued growth and success for many, many years to come!!

Building in Denver, NC has been given a GREEN light . . . if the economy cooperates!

Lincoln County commissioners have just approved a plan to allow nearly 800 new homes to be built in and around the Denver area. Prior to this the area has had a two-year long self-imposed moratorium on new sewer permits sighting the ten-year old Forney Creek wastewater plant was near capacity and the county was concerned about getting state penalties if they went over capacity.

Approval of the new plant, which will be located off Old Plank Road, came last month. This approval meant the county could in turn approve construction of new projects. The commissioners choose to approve commercial and residential projects that were already previously approved and in the pipeline prior to the moratorium.

Among those lucky ones are:

Norman Pointe 78 lots

Pin Oaks 41 lots

Gates at Waterside 96 lots

Salem Springs 38 lots

James Plantation 31 lots

Verdict Ridge 35 lots

Village of Cowans Ford 37 lots

Burton Creek 148 lots

Westport 58 lots

Catawba Springs Promenade 10 lots

Cottonwood Village 3 lots

Balsom Ridge 16 lots

Villages at Unity Church 205 lots
