ESS MEETS Once seen as a quieter neighbor to North Carolina’s booming Research Triangle, Nash County is now stepping into the spotlight, driven by smart investment, bold planning, and a deep commitment to community. As growth accelerates across the region, Nash County is transforming itself into a destination for innovative industries, thriving neighborhoods, and long-term opportunity. Since 2020, Nash County has made significant progress on multiple fronts, thanks to a coordinated and collaborative approach across departments, partners, and stakeholders. Among those helping to steer these efforts is Susan Phelps, Economic Development Manager for Nash County. “We consider ourselves a full-service economic development agency,” Phelps says. “We support everything from large industrial projects down to small Main Street mom-and-pop shops.” 2 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 06, ISSUE 06
