# Gaston County Board of Commissioners September 22, 2026

The Gaston County Board of Commissioners held a regular meeting on September 22, 2026, which included several procurement-related discussions. Notably, the board approved a Level Four economic development incentive grant for Project Legacy, a company planning a $70-75 million investment in real estate, machinery, and equipment, expected to create over 150 jobs with wages above the county average. The grant involves a ten-year property tax reimbursement schedule, with 85% reimbursement for the first five years and 70% for the last five years. Additionally, the board discussed and approved a zoning map change for residential development and adopted updates to the county's 2050 comprehensive land use plan. The meeting also included a public hearing on the proposed schedule of standards and rules for the 2027 real property reappraisal, with concerns raised by citizens about the accuracy and transparency of the schedule. The board agreed to review and clarify any modifications before final adoption. Other agenda items included approval of a grant to digitize well records and appointments to various county boards. No votes or motions related to capital improvement projects or major purchasing decisions were reported beyond the economic development grant.
