This is a huge issue as we go forward. This is the time we need to capitalize on success. Right now NC is the 9th largest state in the USA and is the FASTEST GROWING ECONOMY since 2013 in the country. We need to make it easier to do business in NC and continue this positive trend. In Macon County we have REDUCED local regulations to make it easier for folks to build their homes here. As we speak, we are developing a plan to reduce fees for building & well permits, etc. We can do the same in the State of NC. As we identify and reduce over-reaching regulation, we increase folks' desire to do business here. Also, I applaud the current legislature for reducing corporate, personal and business income tax. That is a positive trend that we need to continue. The future is bright for NC and we need to work to make sure that is true for all of FAR WESTERN NC as well.
