Council approves large development near Kings Mountain casino
Kings Mountain City Council helped clear the way for a neighborhood of 600 homes and apartments to be built near the developing casino.
Council members listened to concerns about the project during its meeting, even having the city clerk read several emails pleading for the zoning change not to be approved.
Despite the negative opinions, a couple of people turned out Tuesday night at the council’s regular meeting to support the project.
“Growth is going to come whether we want it, whether we like it, or whether we don’t, so what we need to be able to do is be prepared to handle it in the most efficient manner we can,” said David Dear, Kings Mountain resident and former Cleveland County manager. “I think it’s a tremendous opportunity for the city of Kings Mountain and for Cleveland County as a whole.”

Scott Johnson, who chairs Bedford Countys COVID-19 Task Force, and the Rev. Jimmy West, who represents the faith-based community on the task force, say that local churches have a key part to play in the continuing battle against the coronavirus pandemic.
Church is an important part of life and community in this county, said Johnson. That means its an important tool for informing, reminding and encouraging our citizens.
Even though the recent surge in cases has caused some churches to meet electronically, they are still in touch with their members through live-streamed meetings and worship services, newsletters and in other ways.
