We uploaded two reports today, both actions recommended by the 2008 Regional Growth Plan. The first is a hotel/convention center market analysis recommended in Chapter 9 of the CRGP. Interestingly, this report was completed and released to the hospitality industry just before City of Fayetteville approved a plan for a four-star Embassy Suites hotel in the Skibo area.
The second report, A Regional Water/Wastewater Infrastructure Model prepared by our own Pierre Lauffer under the auspices of Booz Allen Hamilton, proposes an integrated, regional water system that meets respective county needs while ensuring capacity for future generations. This study builds upon the findings of water/wastewater infrastructure capacity reported in Section E of each respective County chapter (for the seven Category One counties: Cumberland, Harnett, Hoke, Lee, Moore, Richmond, Robeson).
We consider the water infrastructure model as 'the baseline' for regional water resource planning, with inputs to two of NC's major river basins: the Cape Fear and Lumber (part of the Yadkin-Pee Dee system). A forthcoming study, titled Methods for Integrated Capital Planning, will consider this model while assessing the benefits of integrating capital investments among Moore County's governmental entities.
