FOR INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS IN THE COUNTY
WHEREAS; Harnett County has been and continues to be one of the fastest growing counties.
not only in North Carolina, but in the United States; and

related to traffic, education and recreation; and
WHEREAS, areas affected by this rapid growth include Campbell University, North Harnett
Primary School and Neill's Creek Park; and
WHEREAS, the addition of sidewalks from Campbell University's Jerry M. Wallace School of
Osteopathic Medicine to Barker-Lane Stadium will improve the safety of both pedestrians and
drivers along, U.S. 421 in Buies Creek; and
WHEREAS, the construction of a second driveway into North Harnett Primary School will
greatly relieve issues of ingress and egress at the school, and will create a safer environment for
teachers, parents and students to access the school grounds; and
WHEREAS, the creation of an entrance into Neill's Creek Park and additional access to Hamett
Central Middle School's athletic fields will accommodate increased traffic and demand at this
site; and
WHEREAS, legislative contingency funds have been made available for the above mentioned
projects;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Harnett County Board of Commissioners
hereby recognizes and approves the use of contingency funds to be used for the addition of a
