Bill > H291

This bill proposes to expand the corporate limits of the Town of Franklinton by adding specific North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) rights-of-way to the town's territory. The annexed areas include several road segments and intersections along major highways and local streets, such as US Highway 1, NC 56, Lane Store Road, Cedar Creek Road, South Cheatham Street, US 1A (Main Street), South Chavis Street, Carver Street, Dogwood Lane, and Peach Street. These additions will effectively extend the town's geographical boundaries and municipal jurisdiction over these transportation corridors. The bill specifies precise starting and ending points for each road segment being annexed, and it is set to take effect on July 1, 2025. By expanding its limits, the Town of Franklinton will gain control over these additional rights-of-way, which could potentially impact future municipal planning, infrastructure management, and local governance.
