Developers plan 230M in projects for KM By Loretta Cozart During City Kings M o u n tain’s city council meeting on August 25, three requests were discussed to annex land into the city. The associated projects are estimated at $230,000,000. Two properties being considered for annexation are located near the newly named Catawba
Two Kings Casino Resort. The third is off Sarah Lee Access Road between Kings Mountain and Gastonia. City of Kings Mountain scheduled a public hearing for September 26 at 6 pm to accept a Certificate of Sufficiency to consider the non-contiguous annexation petition for E5 Holdings, LLC at 245 Dixon School Road. The proposed use of the property is for 20,000 sq. ft. of retail space and 560,000 sq. ft for other use
not specified. The build-out value of the project, land and buildings, is estimated at $115,000,000.00. The application was signed by Stuart LeGrand, Eddie Holbrook and Doug Brown. Trent Testa is listed as the person to contact with questions about the petition. City of Kings Mountain also scheduled a public hearing for September 26 at 6 pm to accept a Certificate of Sufficiency to consider a See $230M, Page 4
Name announced for the new Catawba Nation’s Casino Resort The Catawba Nation today announced Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort as the name of the gaming and entertainment destination the Nation is developing in Cleveland County. “Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort celebrates our rich history and hopeful future in our ancestral lands in North Carolina – where our people were established hundreds of years ago, as the names Catawba River, Catawba County and Catawba College suggest,” said Catawba Chief Bill Harris. “The name pays tribute to the 18th century Catawba Chief King Hagler and to the City of Kings Mountain, which will be home to the new casino resort. It also
symbolizes the unique relationship that the Catawba people have historically had – and will continue to strengthen going forward – with fellow residents of the region,” Harris said. The Catawba unveiled the name and logo for the new casino resort on August 28 at a private event attended by citizens of the Catawba Nation community, casino project partners and City of Kings Mountain officials. The Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort logo depicts a silhouette of King Hagler set against a representation of
Kings Mountain. The logo was developed in consultation with Delaware North. The global hospitality and entertainment company is advising the Catawba on the project. King Hagler, Chief of the Catawba from 1750 to 1763, forged a peaceful relationship with the American colonists in the region while firmly defending the rights of his people. The Catawba helped protect the colonists, including during the French and Indian War, and in return the Catawba people received their support.
KMFD joins Cleveland County’s Emergency Warning System Beginning Saturday, September 5, at 12 noon, K i n g s M o u n - THOMAS HARMON t a i n ’ s KMFD CHIEF emergency warning sirens will be tested along with all of the warning sirens in Cleveland County. After that, on the first Saturday of each month at 12 noon, Cleveland County 911 Communications will test the emergency warning system for the entire county. This testing will help ensure that the sirens operate during a true emergency. “It is imperative that the emergency warning system for the entire county be reliable and available to warn the public of pending severe weather 24 hours a
day, 365 days a year,” said Perry Davis, Emergency Management Director for Cleveland County. “The addition of Kings Mountain’s siren to the system utilized by the rest of the county is a vital piece of that coverage,” Davis added. Kings Mountain Fire Department’s sirens have been reprogrammed to communicate on the same frequency as Cleveland County and have been through initial testing. September 5 will be the first countywide test that includes Kings Mountain’s sirens. According to Cleveland County’s Assistant 911 Communications Director Stori McIntyre, “Cleveland County Communications is excited to partner with Kings Mountain Fire Department to provide lifesaving notifications during inclement weather.” “We are happy that we could use our existing equipment and still become part of the system already in place throughout the county,” said
Chief Thomas Harmon of the Kings Mountain Fire Department. “Cleveland County’s 911 Communications Center can simply transmit on one frequency and activate every emergency warning siren throughout Cleveland County simultaneously,” added Chief Harmon. “Now, Kings Mountain will be a part of that system.” In addition to the monthly testing, the sirens will be activated for tornado warnings only. The sirens will not be used to alert the public of tornado watches, only tornado warnings. A tornado warning signifies that a tornado has been spotted and is in the area. The sirens will also not be used to alert people of watches or warnings for thunderstorms, severe weather, wind, lightning, or winter weather. “We do not want people to become immune to the sound of the siren,” said Chief Harmon. “We want See KMFD Page 4

133 West opens today By Loretta Cozart Owner Iris Hubbard and executive chef Evan Garr have worked hard for this day, the grand opening of 133 West on Mountain Street. The old Grayson’s Jewelry, later the home of Kings Tavern, has undergone a total transformation. Inside, the restaurant is tastefully decorated in a monochromatic black and white, with pops of color from flowers placed throughout. The Senior Park next door was gutted and a beautiful patio with performance stage added. Plantings and benches soften the hardscapes and invite passersby to stop in and take a break from the heat. For three weeks, Hubbard and Garr have worked through the soft opening, followed by limited hours last week. Starting Wednesday, Sept 2, the restaurant will begin normal hours, serving lunch, dinner, and brunch on Saturday and Sunday. Reservations are only required for parties of six or more. On Saturday, Sept. 5, singer-songwriter Scoot Pittman will perform on the patio between 1 pm and 4 pm. “We hope folks will
Owner Iris Hubbard with Executive Chef Evan Garr welcome you to 133 West. Photo Loretta Cozart join us this week to celebrate our grand opening. Stop in on Saturday afternoon to relax and listen to music on the patio with us,” Hubbard said. Hubbard and Garr have sifted through customer
comment cards to hone the menu from items offered during the soft opening. They describe their menu as a modern and creative approach to southern cuisine. See 133 WEST, Page 4
King served as Republican National Delegate last week By Loretta Cozart Wayne King attended his fifth Republican National Convention last week as a North Carolina Delegate, but this year’s convention was very different than in prior years. Starting on Saturday, August 22, King spent three days in Charlotte doing party business before traveling to Washington to see President Trump’s acceptance speech. “The Republican Convention was a lot different than in prior years, due to the Coronavirus. In Charlotte, about 350 delegates attended, along with Republican National Committee employees,” King said. On Thursday, King traveled to Washington, DC with 1,000 invited guests and members of congress to attend President Donald Trump’s acceptance speech on the South Lawn of the White House. “I learned that this wasn’t the first time a president accepted their party’s nomination at the White House,” said King. Attending with him were his girlfriend, Nikki Massey, and son, Noah King. “Noah really enjoyed seeing the president and his acceptance speech. There were not many kids there and
Nikki Massey and Wayne King at President Trump’s acceptance speech in Washington. Photos provided Noah noticed,” King said. “I think President Trump laid out a positive vision and reviewed the challenges and accomplishments of his first term.” King had served as Chief of Staff for NC Congressman Mark Meadows who
resigned his office on March 30 to serve as Chief of Staff for President Trump. Currently, King works for Fidelis Government Relations in Washington, DC. On July 19, 1940, President Franklin D. Roosevelt See KING, Page 4

City of KM distributes more than 5,000 face masks By Janet Hart City of Kings Mountain The City of Kings Mountain distributed more than 5,000 face masks on Thursday, August 27 at the Patrick Senior Center. Gaston County donated 15,000 face masks to the City of Kings Mountain from their allotment from North Carolina Health and Human Services. There were 225 cars that came through the City’s drive-thru mask distribution
and the people in each car received two or more packs with five masks in each pack. Multiple churches and community organizations also picked up hundreds of masks for their members. The City of Kings Mountain will hold additional mask distribution events in the next few months. Wearing a face mask is one of the precautions that leading health officials cite as ways to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
“We appreciated the opportunity to contribute to the health and wellness of our community by giving away face masks,” said Janet Hart, Marketing and Communications Director for the City of Kings Mountain. “Everyone who picked up face masks was so happy that they could get extra masks for family members, neighbors, and friends,” Hart added. “It’s wonderful to see how people are helping each other.”

accepted the Democratic Party’s nomination for President shortly after midnight in a radio address and in front of newsreel cameras, according to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum. In 1932, television was in its infancy and Roosevelt said he was using all means necessary “to break foolish traditions” by being the first nominee to accept their party’s nomination at the convention. He asked delegates to stay an extra day and flew with his family to Chicago to accept the nomination in person.

Noah King, 11, stands in front of the stage prior to President Trump’s speech. Matthews is listed as the person to contact with questions about the petition. In other business, city council amended the ordinance and removed the Willow Oak from the list of recommended trees in City of Kings Mountain’s Street Tree Plan. Downtown and west King Street would not be included in this change. Willow Oaks grow 60 ft. tall and their root system is as broad. These trees are planted along roadways and the roots cause damage to sidewalks and pavement. Proposed trees for inclusion in the ordinance are maples and redbuds that grow between 15 and 20 feet tall including Trident Maple, Ruby Sunset Maple, Bloodgood Japanese Maple, Emperor Japanese Maple, Coral Bark Japanese Maple, Fireglow Japanese Maple, Eastern Redbud and Forest Pansy Redbud. Councilman Keith Miller asked, “Can accommodation or variances be made for citizens, were we to approve this change?” City Planner Stuart Gilbert said that variance
would go to the Board of Adjustments. Legal counsel Mickey Corry agreed. Councilman Mike Butler made the motion to approve amending City of Kings Mountain’s Street Tree Plan. No citizens spoke in favor or against regarding this issue. City Council approved the motion. Royster Oil withdrew their request to rezone 43 acres of property on Shelby Road. New owner Kaimesha Young spoke to city council with an update on her property at 100 E. King Street, the old McGill’s Esso Station. “If everything goes as planned, we are shooting for a Christmas Grand Opening,” she said. She intends to open a real estate office at the location. In other action, City Council reauthorized the Kings Mountain Housing Committee and appointing board members to the committee. They also approved appointing Tracy Bolin to the Mauney Memorial Library Board to fill a vacant seat, with the term expiring June 30, 2022.
weather preparedness,” said Chief Harmon. “We hope that this will lessen some of the confusion during severe weather alerts.” Chief Harmon continued, “Instead of people calling the fire station or 911 when the siren activates to find out what is going on, they should immediately take precautions for potentially dangerous weather.” Tornado preparedness in-
formation can be found on multiple websites including the American Red Cross, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Centers for Disease Control, and the National Weather Center. “As always, if you have questions about weather preparedness before a weather event occurs, you are welcome to call your local fire station,” added Chief Harmon.

Help, I’m Offended! How many times a day do we get easily offended by what we hear and see? It seems like it really does not take much to tick us off, especially with our family members. Drive in your car for a few minutes and road rage starts bubbling up. Get on social media, and from one comment we click the unfriend button. Politics instigate heated arguments and rage in some people. Whether it is a stranger or some- DANYALE PATTERSON one close, we get offended. Offense is “annoyance, resentment, or anger brought about by a perceived insult or disregard for oneself or one’s standards or principles.” Consequence of Offense The number one effect of offense is that it can cause tension or a rift in relationships. If we let our emotions get the best of us, we will withdraw from people or become aggressive in our tone with them. In addition, we may get a negative response from the people who offended us. Proverbs 18:19 states “An offended friend is harder to win back than a fortified city. Arguments separate friends like a gate locked with bars.” We must decide how much time and energy we will allow to be taken from us in exchange for being offended. Remember that every minute spent in offense is 60 seconds without happiness. Is it worth it? Proverbs 19:11 states, “If you are sensible, you will control your temper. When someone wrongs you, it is a great virtue to ignore it.”
The Kings Mountain Herald | www.kmherald.com Ponder on the following Scriptures about offense: “Do not take to heart all the things that people say…” - Ecclesiastes 7:21a “With all humility and gentleness, with patience, bear with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” - Ephesians 4:2-3 “Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.” - Colossians 3:13 “Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger.” - James 1:19 PRAY THIS PRAYER: “Father God, I praise you for who you are. There is none like you in all the earth. You are perfect in all your ways. Thank you for being so near to me! I love you with all of my heart. I celebrate your wonderful works. You look beyond my faults and love me unconditionally. Thank you for your grace and mercy. Forgive me for being offended by unimportant things. Lord, I want to be offended only towards the things that offend you. Remove anger and bitterness from my heart. Help me to let it go and release people that have offended me. I forgive them. I ask for your peace that flows like a river. I speak a blessing over those who have offended me. In Jesus’ name Amen.” Danyale Patterson is co-founder of Enlighten Ministries, a 501c3 organization with her husband Brandon Patterson.

he said. “When he said something he meant it. He was one of the most generous men I’ve ever known.” Champion was serious about his businesses doing things the right way. But he could have less-serious moments. “He was the best prankster I’ve ever known,” Shoemaker said. “I will never forget one time I was officiating a middle school football game in Kings Mountain and Carl was in the stands. At halftime he called me down the sideline and pulled out a bunch of money like he was paying me off. I said ‘You put that money back.’ I knew there were a lot of people watching.” Shoemaker said coming to KM and coaching Carl’s softball teams was one of the best things he ever did. “He always tried to do it the right way,” he said. “We had the best amateurs in Cleveland and Gaston County. But the two teams that finished ahead of us in the national tournament were pro teams. “Carl was a great friend of Kings Mountain athletics. I never will forget when Kings Mountain went to Chapel Hill for the state football championship in ’98. He called me and said ‘Get me four or five charter buses.’ He filled them with fans and they didn’t have to pay one penny. He was so generous. If he knew somebody needed something he would take care of it. There will never be another Carl Champion.” Bruce Clark, who coached at KMHS in the 1980s and 1990s, echoed Shoemaker’s remarks. “I have never had a better experience in coaching,” he said. “I coached his daughter Ashley in softball and his son Kevin in football. He’s just one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. He cared so much about Kings Mountain and wanted everyone to do well. “It was not just what he did for sports, but the things he did for me personally. I was at a coach’s clinic when we were building a house. He came out and looked at the yard and said there was going to be a drainage problem. My wife called me and said he had some equipment out there. When I got home he had landscaped the yard and sowed it, and it was perfectly manicured.” After Clark’s 1989 baseball team won the state 3A championship, Champion took the players, coaches and their wives, and others to the beach and paid the entire bill. “He was such a great supporter of all athletes,” Clark said. “When we kept winning during the playoffs he would shoot fireworks. He came to me one day and said he wanted to take the team to the beach. He gave us a big RV so we could all ride together. We stayed for a week – the players, coaches and their wives and their parents and family. “Carl and Dub Blalock were two of our biggest supporters,” he added. “They would take everybody to the Riverview Fish Camp in Belmont. Carl was just a fine man. He just wanted to see you have a good time and enjoy the moment. “What he did for the Kings Mountain Hall of

Kings Mountain’s Carl Champion, who died last week, had the perfect last name. He was a real champion to his family and friends, to Kings Mountain High and many other high schools and colleges, the City of Kings Mountain, countless charities, and to many other people and organizations he was involved with. Growing up in the Bethware area, Champion had an early love for sports that would continue for the rest of his life. In sports and other endeavors, he gave his full support. He made his mark on Kings Mountain sports not just on game days, but also by his generosity of money and providing free grading for most of the athletic fields at the high school and other places. His generosity reached far and wide, as did his friends. Shortly after he met Champion in the late 1960s at a softball game, Belmont’s Art Shoemaker became one of his closest friends. “He always made me feel like I was part of his family,” Shoemaker said. “We immediately hit it off.” In the late sixties Shoemaker was coaching a slowpitch softball team in Gaston County, and needed a sponsor. “I knew of Carl,” Shoemaker recalled. “We had played him when I was coaching Groves Thread. I went to him and introduced myself. Groves was no longer going to sponsor a team. He told me he was starting a team and wanted me to help him get it off the ground. Looking back, he’s done so much for people in Kings Mountain and all over. He was generous to a fault. It’s been a great honor to know him.” Shoemaker recalled that Champion’s team won three straight NC state championships, and one year finished third in the national tournament in York, PA. “There won’t be another Carl Champion,” Shoemaker said. “When we started the team he wanted to play. I had gotten some top notch players in the area and I told him his name was on the jerseys as owner, but he couldn’t play. He said, ‘Well, if that’s the way you feel that’s the way it’s going to be.’ ” In 1973, Shoemaker recalled, Champion’s team finished third in the nation behind two teams that had all paid players. “We both decided we couldn’t compete at that level,” he said. “The best thing about coaching Carl’s team is that we became great friends. He was like a brother to me. “It just broke my heart to see him struggling to breathe near the end,” he said. “We’d had a surprise 80th birthday for him recently and I could tell then he wasn’t feeling well.” Champion loved his friends and loved Kings Mountain, Shoemaker said. “If there was anything he could do for you he’d do it,” he said. “I loved him and he loved me, and I know I will see him again.” Shoemaker agrees that Champion had the perfect last name. “He was a champion in every sense of the word,”

KMHS earns Level 1 status in CCC receives $ 1.3 million grant NFHS School Honor Roll Program Money will help first-generation college students, others succeed Cleveland Community College has been awarded a five-year, federal grant to support its TRIO Student Support Services project. This is the third time CCC has received this grant. The grant award over the five years totals more than $1.3 million, with approximately $261,000 per year starting in the 2020-21 school year. The funds will help CCC serve first-generation college students, low-income and other qualifying students. “The impact of spending time with students, conversing and preparing them for what’s next in life - transitioning to a four-year college or university, getting a job, enrolling in the military or starting their own business - is what the
TRIO Student Support Services program is all about,” says Annette Toms, TRIO Student Support Services project director. Staff in CCC’s TRIO Student Support Services program provide students with academic tutoring, advice and assistance in course selection, financial literacy, budgeting, time management and more. The financial support from this grant enables CCC to retain the employees who are doing this valuable work. The program is part of the federal TRIO Programs, aimed at increasing graduation rates among first-generation college students, low-income students and individuals with disabilities. “We provide the guidance to give students a hand up, not a handout,” said Toms.
The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) is pleased to announce that Kings Mountain High School in Kings Mountain, North Carolina, has earned Level 1 status in the NFHS School Honor Roll. The newly instituted NFHS School Honor Roll is a national recognition program designed to promote professional development for high school coaches by completing specific online education courses through the NFHS Learning Center (www.NFHSLearn.com). In earning Level 1 status, more than 90 percent of the coaches at Kings Mountain High School completed the core course “Fundamentals of Coaching” along with three of the Learning Center’s most significant courses – “Concussion in Sports,” “Sudden Cardiac Arrest” and “Protecting Students from Abuse.”
“We want to congratulate the coaches and administration at Kings Mountain High School for taking this significant step in prioritizing professional development,” said Dr. Karissa Niehoff, NFHS executive director. “These four courses will definitely help the coaches at Kings Mountain High School to handle the daily challenges in high school sports and should serve as a challenge for other schools to follow their example.” “At Kings Mountain we are always striving to make ourselves better coaches and role models,” said Matthew Bridges, athletic director at Kings Mountain High School. “The professional development opportunities that NFHS has provided has helped mold coaches and develop many plans to keep
student-athletes safe in the ever-changing world. In the last couple years, we have had many coaches achieve the Accredited Interscholastic Coach and Certified Interscholastic Coach certification, and here at Kings Mountain we wanted to take the next step to become an NFHS Honor Roll School.” As a physical sign of completing Level 1 certification, Kings Mountain High School will receive a large display banner for its school gymnasium to commemorate its accomplishments and dedication to professional development and education-based activity programs. Schools can earn Level 2 status (and a Level 2 banner) on the NFHS School Honor Roll when more than 90 percent of their coaches – excluding volunteer coaches – complete courses that pertain specifically to sports they coach, along with “First Aid, Health and Safety,”
“Heat Illness Prevention” and “Student Mental Health and Suicide Prevention.” A Level 3 banner will be awarded for schools that reach 90-percent completion for the “Sportsmanship,” “Strength and Conditioning,” “Teaching and Modeling Behavior,” “Engaging Effectively with Parents” and “Bullying, Hazing, and Inappropriate Behaviors” courses. “Earning the NFHS School Honor Roll banner is a symbol that the school and its coaches are committed to providing a great experience for young people, and it’s something that everyone can be proud of within their communities,” said Dan Schuster, NFHS Director of Educational Services.

Nature Reconsidered Art Exhibit & Competition and TRAIL Photography Competition October 2-November 6 Southern Arts Society is sponsoring Nature Reconsidered, an art exhibition and competition that aims to explore the ever-changing relationship between humans and nature. Since time began, artists have documented, questioned, celebrated and reimagined our relationship with the natural world. With man’s increasing impact on nature, whether in harmony or in conflict, this exploration is more relevant than ever. Nature Reconsidered seeks to draw out the diverse ways that nature is represented in art. We welcome work that references, investigates, challenges, and/or celebrates our relationship with the natural world. Work may contain images of people, and manmade structures or objects as they relate to, or make a statement about our relationship to nature. All work must be original, completed within the last two years. Painting (oil, watercolor, acrylic, pastel), drawing, sculpture, printmaking, photography, mixed media and fiber are eligible. Work must be presented in a professional manner.

Legislators support increasing Broadband Internet investments With students forced into virtual learning, access to high-speed internet is TIM MOORE more important than ever, some North Carolina legislators are signaling support for additional funding for the Growing Rural Economies with Access to Technology (GREAT) Grant program in 2020 ahead of the September session. Those legislators hope to inject $30 million from the federal CARES Act funding into the program to fund another round of awards in 2020. The GREAT program supports expanding high-speed broadband internet access in rural counties across North Carolina. The legislature has
allocated $24 million to the program this year. So far, in 2020 more than $12 million in grant funding has been awarded to expand access to 8,017 households and 254 businesses in 11 counties. “From Day One the GREAT program has benefited rural North Carolina, including Robeson and Columbus counties,” Sen. Danny Earl Britt, Jr. (R-Robeson) said. “Access to reliable internet is an absolute game-changer for our business community, our education systems, and our daily life. It’s more important than ever to ensure our students and small business owners have access to reliable internet.” Columbus and Robeson counties were both awarded GREAT grants during 2020 and will expand access to the internet to nearly 3,300 households and 54 businesses.
On Saturday, the Cleveland C o u n t y Health Department reported 35 deaths associated with COVID-19 in Cleveland County. “Seventy-one percent of the total COVID-19-related deaths in Cleveland County have been residents over the age of 65,” Cleveland County Deputy Health Director DeShay Oliver said. “Furthermore, 83% of our county’s COVID-19-related deaths have had at least one underlying health condition, with the most common condition being cardiovascular disease followed by chronic lung disease.” This data is in alignment with the information published by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NC DHHS) that warns of the risk of severe illness from COVID-19 for those over the age of 65 and with underlying health conditions. According to the CDC, your risk of getting severely ill from COVID-19 increases as you get older. In fact, eight out of ten COVID-19-related deaths
reported in the United States have been among adults aged 65 years and older. There are also other factors that can increase your risk for severe illness, such as having underlying medical conditions. People of any age with the following conditions are at increased risk of severe illness from COVID19: cancer; chronic kidney disease; COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease); immunocompromised state (weakened immune system); obesity (body mass index [BMI] of 30 or higher); serious heart conditions such as heart failure, coronary artery disease, or cardiomyopathies; sickle cell disease; and type 2 diabetes. Individuals residing in a long term care facility are also at an increased risk for severe complications from COVID-19. “Forty percent of the COVID-19-related deaths in Cleveland County have been from long term care facilities. The combination of age, underlying health conditions, and the congregate living setting of these individuals places them in a very high risk setting for COVID-19. The health department and NC DHHS are working directly
with local long term care facilities under these very difficult circumstances,” Oliver shared. As of August 28, six people have died in Congregate Living Settings within the current incubation cycle at White Oak Manor in Kings Mountain with five deaths within the last week. One-hundred and twenty-four people, 82 being patients, have contracted COVID-19 at that location. In White Oak Manor Shelby, 40 people, 16 being patients, have contracted the virus and four have died. No staff have died from the virus. An incubation cycle for a coronavirus case is about 28 days, and any new cases during a 28-day span extends the amount of time the home will have to deal with the virus. There have been no outbreaks or clusters in child care or school settings reported in Cleveland County by NCDHHS. “We encourage everyone to take steps to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in our community to help protect our most vulnerable populations,” Cleveland County Health Director Tiffany Hansen said. “Even if you are not concerned about
having severe symptoms, consider the people you could potentially infect who may be at an increased risk for more severe complications including hospitalization and even death.” The best way to protect yourself and to help reduce the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19 is to limit your interactions with other people as much as possible. When you do interact with others, take precautions to prevent getting COVID-19 by practicing the three w’s of wearing a face covering, waiting six feet apart, and washing your hands. Other things you can do are cover coughs and sneezes, clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces, monitor your symptoms, and stay home if you are sick. You can receive local COVID-19 updates by following the Cleveland County Health Department’s Facebook page @ clevelandcountyhealthdepartment. You may also view additional county and state COVID-19 data and information on the NC DHHS COVID-19 Dashboard available at: https://covid19. ncdhhs.gov/dashboard.
“Access to high-speed internet allows a person to expand his or her world beyond their wildest imagination,” Sen. Bob Steinburg (R-Chowan) said. “Students from Murphy to Manteo are losing out on critical learning because they don’t have access to the internet. As remote learning becomes a new norm, it is imperative we invest in this infrastructure.” The legislature created the GREAT program in 2018. Since then it’s continued to prioritize funding to expand broadband, despite Gov. Roy
Cooper vetoing funding for it in 2018 and 2019. “When we created the GREAT program in 2018 it was innovative and became a model for other states,” Rep. Dean Arp (R-Union) said. “This pandemic only highlights the extraordinary need to continue to fund this program. Investing in rural broadband is an investment in the future of North Carolina.” In May, the General Assembly also approved $11 million for additional Wi-Fi access in homes, $35 million
for electronic devices to access remote learning, and $1 million to equip buses with Wi-Fi. In September, the legislature hopes to allocate an additional $10 million for internet hotspots for K-12 students. “This funding reinforces the commitment from both the Senate and the House to connect our students, parents, and teachers to online learning resources no matter what challenges are before us,” Rep. Jason Saine (R-Lincoln) said.

Governor Cooper announces $175 Million to assist North Carolinians for rental and utility payment support Governor Roy Cooper today announced August 24 that $175 million will be made GOV. COOPER available to help North Carolinians with rental and utility payment support in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. “COVID-19 has strained family finances across North Carolina, and many people are struggling to make ends meet,” said Governor Cooper. “People need a safe, stable place to call home, especially during this pandemic, and we must help keep people in their homes and keep their utilities on while our economy recovers.” Today’s announcement includes three programs designed
to work together to help people avoid eviction and pay their bills, per the Governor’s direction. Eviction Prevention and Utility Payments: Approximately $94 million of the funding will be disbursed by the North Carolina Office of Recovery and Resiliency (NCORR) to support rental and utility payments and prevent evictions for those with a demonstrated need. The funding will be distributed to eligible community agencies around the state that will work directly with North Carolinians on an application and disbursement process. The fund includes $28 million from federal Community Development Block Grant – Coronavirus (CDBG-CV) funding and the remaining $66 million from CARES Act Coronavirus Relief
Fund (CRF) money. Crisis Response and Housing Stability: About $53 million of the funding is designated for the Emergency Solutions Grant-Coronavirus (ESG-CV) Program through the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS). The federal ESG-CV money is intended for families experiencing homelessness or who face a more immediate risk of homelessness and will be distributed by similar community agencies handling NCORR’s program. This innovative model will help streamline the process for families. Once a person applies, local community agencies will determine which program they are eligible for and then complete the application quickly. “Families in crisis don’t have time to spare, and our state
agencies are coordinating a plan to make it easier for people to get the support they need,” said Governor Cooper. Information about how people can apply for the NCORR program and the ESG-GV program will be shared once the programs have launched in the coming weeks. “During this crisis, it is more important than ever that government work smarter and faster to deliver relief to people facing eviction and utility disconnection. NCORR is proud to be partnering across agencies to make the most of federal funds in North Carolina,” said Chief Operating Officer Laura Hogshead. “Having a stable, safe place to live is fundamental to well-being and health. We continue to prioritize support-
ing people in meeting basic needs as part of our COVID response,” said NCDHHS Secretary Mandy K. Cohen. Local Government Funds: Another $28 million of federal funding will be administered by local governments through the North Carolina Department of Commerce. This money also comes from the federal CDBG-CV program and will be administered by incorporated municipalities under 50,000 residents and counties under 200,000 residents that apply to participate. Local governments are encouraged to prioritize the money locally to help their residents pay rent and outstanding utility bills. In addition, the funds may provide support for internet access, food distribution, COVID-19 testing and diagnosis and employment
training for health care workers. “The Commerce Department has a long history of collaborating with our local government partners to administer federal resources during times of crisis,” said Commerce Secretary Anthony Copeland. “As a ready conduit for vital assistance to North Carolina communities, our CDBG program has proven its value many times over.” The application process for local governments to apply for the Commerce-administered funding has opened. Eligible local governments who would like to apply for the Commerce CDBG-CV program can contact the North Carolina Department of Commerce’s Community Development Block Grant Coronavirus Program.
