welcome to

LEE COUNTY

L

A small package filled with all good things

ee County’s small-town charm and rural landscapes may be among its biggest attractions when looking for quality of life, but it’s fast becoming attractive to young professionals and companies looking to expand.

The county, with its county seat in Sanford, saw unprecedented economic success in 2019 when it landed two new companies and the expansion of a third, adding to its already impressive manufacturing base.

4 ▶ Herald FYI 2020

Lee County saw major dividends from its investment in economic development with an expansion at Pfizer, the building of Bharat Forge, auto component manufacturing plant, and Audentes’ plans to move a gene therapy facility into the shell building at Central Carolina Enterprise Park.

City and county leaders are not only working on bringing jobs, they are also focused on improving parks, schools and housing, with new housing developments in the works to meet the growing demand.

In education, the W.B. Wicker Elementary School opened, becoming the area’s first “STEAM” school, focusing not only on science, technology, engineering and math, but also placing a premium on art.

Two charter schools will now also call Sanford home giving parents choices when it comes to their children’s education.

A great quality of life, safe and relaxed atmosphere, affordable cost of living, plenty of attractions and activities of all sorts and moderate

weather are all the reasons why people choose to live here.

The area is considerably warmer than communities in the northeast and midwest, but moderate enough to provide a taste of all four seasons.

Our geographic location also has a “goldilocks” quality to it. We’re close to the hustle and bustle of the RaleighDurham Triangle and Fayetteville/ Fort Bragg, but far enough away to experience a more manageable cost of living. ► SANFORD Established in 1907 from portions of Moore and Chatham counties three decades before Lee County was created, Sanford initially thrived as a railroad town, with business leaders and traveling vaudeville performers seeking their fortunes along the Western and Chatham lines.

Some historic features of the railroad can still be found in Lee County, namely the historic Depot Park, a popular location for weekend concerts and movies, community awareness events and rallies or just a nice night out. With an open field and events bandstand, the park is the perfect place to bring people together.

At the intersection of two railroad tracks, the old, brick railroad depot can still be found in the park, along with the Railroad House, now a local history museum open most weekend afternoons.

While trains still pass through, Sanford is now better known for its arts and culture. Local artists engage in everything from painting, to pottery to furniture making, carrying on a rich tradition of folk art and artistic functionality.

Sanford has enjoyed steady growth during its history from about 236 residents in 1880 to nearly 30,000 today, according to estimates.

► SISTER CITIES :

YIXING, CHINA

Sanford is sister cities with Yixing, China, a relationship built on clay. Or, pottery, to be exact. Located about 130 miles west of Shanghai, Yixing is also known for pottery, especially its hallmark zisha teapots, and mirrors Sanford’s economic success with contemporary industry.

But there are obvious differences between the international sisters.

Yixing has considerably more people — about 1.24 million, according to recent estimates — and was established about 221 B.C. during the Qin Dynasty, making the city in Jiangsu province considerably older. ► ATIZAPÁN DE

ZARAGOZA, MEXICO

A delegation from Atizapán de Zaragoza traveled to Sanford in October 2019 for the official signing ceremony.

The most populous municipality in Mexico with more than 1 million people, Atizapán de Zaragoza is part of the metropolitan area of Mexico City, which has 22 million people.

Some commonalities with Sanford include a love of art, an open-forbusiness philosophy, and a vision for prosperity that includes investments in technology and education.

The Jonesboro Rotary Club’s long standing relationship with the Club Rotario Las Torres Satelite provided the backbone of Sanford’s connection with Atizapán de Zaragoza. The two clubs have worked together for years on infrastructure projects in Mexico. ► BROADWAY Referred to as “Mayberry Incarnate,” Broadway offers the best of southern, small-town life. Like Sanford, it’s a place where you know your neighbors.

South of Sanford along the Lee / Harnett County line, Broadway was

THINGS TO CONSIDER when

STARTING A BUSINESS Your resource guide to starting a business in Sanford, Lee County and Broadway.

Starting and growing a business in the Sanford-Lee County-Broadway area can be both fulfilling and prosperous.

Our community has a strong history of “doers,” where over the years countless individuals have seen a need for our citizens and did something about it.

“At the Sanford Area Growth Alliance – Chamber of Commerce, we pride ourselves in being advocates for the local business community,” commented Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Meg Moss. “No matter the size of the business, we feel that our locally owned and operated businesses are the backbone to our community. We hope that the guide we have developed will be a worthy resource in the planning and expansion stages of your business.”

Starting and owning a business begins with an idea but takes numerous steps along the way to bring your plan to fruition. Luckily, with the professional resources available in our area, there is no shortage of help to bring your dream to life.

PLANNING/ZONING & PERMITS: When considering starting a business, once you have determined what you would like to do and where you would like to do it, you should secure zoning approval from the local Planning/Zoning Dept. to ensure that the proposed use is allowed at the proposed location.

Each zoning district has a list of permitted uses that correspond to the purpose statement for each district.The zoning process also provides information regarding the next step in the overall approval process, such as contact information for the Sanford/Lee County Building Inspections Dept. if applicable. When it comes to planning your new business, zoning approval is essential to starting off on the path to success.

8 ▶ Herald FYI 2020

UTILIZE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES: Starting a business often includes a hefty amount of documentation which can feel chaotic. Hiring an attorney can help ease this burden. A licensed attorney will be able to provide support with specific tasks like trademarking your name, reviewing lease documents, discussing potential legal structures, and preparing incorporation forms.

You may also want to consider enlisting the services of a Certified Public Accountant to oversee business finances. Marketing and workforce are other services that new, and expanding, businesses should consider utilizing. As the Chamber of Commerce, we can help connect you to these resources!

But art here doesn’t live just on walls.

It comes alive in places like the Temple Theatre, which produces numerous professional shows each year, from dramas, to comedies, to musicals and live music performances.

Music is central to arts in Lee County. For classical music lovers, there’s the Lee County Community Orchestra, which has been producing high quality shows for more than 30 years.

BUSINESS & INDUSTRY

A collective vision

T

he cooperative efforts of Lee County, Sanford and the Sanford Area Growth Alliance resulted in a banner year for economic development.

Pharmaceutical manufacturer Pfizer announced plans in August for a $500 million expansion for a state-of-the-art gene therapy facility that was to bring 300 additional jobs.

That was followed in September by the announcement that Bharat Forge, a part of the global, Indiabased Kalyani Group, which chose Lee County as the site to build an automobile component manufacturing.

Work is underway at the 70 acre site on Colon Road near Tabitha Lane.

The plant represents a $170.9 16 ▶ Herald FYI 2020

million investment for the county and will create 460 full-time jobs that will pay an average salary of $47,056.

In February, Audentes Therapies Inc., a San Francisco-based gene therapy company, announced it would open a plant in a 117,000 square-foot shell building in Central Carolina Enterprise Park off Colon Road.

Audentes has agreed to invest $109.4 million in machinery and equipment and to purchase and renovate the shell building.

Audentes, which was acquired in January by the Tokyo-based Astellas Pharma Inc., will bring 209 jobs with an average salary of $83,900.

Kirk J. Bradley, chair of the SAGA board of directors, praised the efforts

of everyone involved in an open letter to the community.

“The culmination of this collective vision and execution has resulted in economic wins for Lee County, including Pfizer’s expansion, Bharat Forge, Audentes and many others,” Bradley wrote.

“Lee County has been recognized at the state, regional, national and international levels as having one of the most thriving economic development ecosystems of any community of our size.”

These new companies join an already-stellar list of companies here that include Coty, Moen, Pentair, Caterpillar, Static Control Components, Magnetti Marelli and Pilgrim’s Pride, among many others.

Many of the area’s top restaurants, retail shops and service businesses are named the “Best of Lee County” in a communitywide vote conducted each spring by The Sanford Herald.

Here are some of last year’s winners.

EDUCATION

Building better students

T

he county’s long-awaited W.B. Wicker Elementary School opened in 2019 welcoming about 700 students.

The $22 million project was five years in the making and gave some muchneeded relief to J.R. Ingram, J. Glenn Edwards and B.T. Bullock elementary schools.

The Lee County Board of Education considered three sites in downtown Sanford before voting unanimously in 2015 to use the old Wicker School campus on South Vance Street in September 2015.

The original W.B. Wicker School was built in 1927 and served as a high school for African American students.

Through the years, there were additions to the building as well as other facilities constructed on-site. In 1969, after

desegregation, it was converted to an elementary and middle school. In 1990, the school closed and the building fell into disrepair. The original building still stands as part of the new campus.

In today’s world, education is much more than the daily grind of classes and homework that leads to graduation.

Lee County Schools is a perfect example, with a range of opportunities that include college credits and National Academy Foundation academies.

Lee County High also boasts an International Baccalaureate program, with many universities granting credit for these courses. But the opportunities aren’t just in the higher grade levels.

Each middle school utilizes STEM courses, which place an emphasis on science, technology, engineering and

math. This better prepares students for the global and diverse society and workforce they’ll enter one day.

In addition to the Wicker school, charter schools shared the spotlight in Lee County this year.

Construction on a new, 50,000-squarefoot building is scheduled start, expanding Ascend Leadership Academy.

And the first elementary charter school in the county — MINA Charter School — is scheduled to open in August in the Kendale Plaza shopping center. Renovations to the existing 82,300-square-foot building began in December.

About 252 students in grade K-5 are expected to attend the year-round facility when it opens, according to the school’s website.

GOVERNMENT

Cooperation continues to benefit everyone

T

he spirit of cooperation between local government officials has continued, bringing more development and revenue into Lee County.

The county commissioners and city council, along with the Broadway commissioners and mayor, continued meeting quarterly to discuss working together in projects such as economic development, new schools and developing a plan for future growth.

Cooperation among local and state

government was key in bringing three large manufacturers to the county. “The culmination of this collective vision and execution has resulted in economic wins for Lee County,� said Kirk Bradley, chairman of the Sanford Area Growth Alliance board of directors, in an open letter to the community.

With the 2020 Land Use Plan in place, the city and county have continued reviewing the Unified Development Ordinance, which determines where and how new

neighborhoods will be constructed.

Both boards have continued to push for subdivisions that are comfortable for residents.

The S3 Housing Connect task force has continued efforts to bring the community together to help battle homelessness. The task force has brought together city and county leaders as well as vital community components such as churches and nonprofits to look for ways to provide affordable housing and other benefits to those in need.

HUMAN SERVICES

Helping is a win-win situation

L

ee County is home to scores of nonprofits that help not only those in need but the volunteers who pitch in.

And the good news is, volunteers often feel they benefit more from volunteering than the organizations they’re helping, so it’s a win-win for everyone. Volunteers should know that their efforts really help charitable organizations overcome the financial hurdles of meeting their missions.

According to studies, the value of a volunteer hour is more than $24. So for every hour volunteers work for their favorite charities, they’re saving those charities money that can then be used to achieve their missions.

46 ▶ Herald FYI 2020

Among the many programs that help lift people up in the community is the city’s homelessness task force — S3 Housing Connect — helps those without a steady place to stay and aims to eradicate homelessness in the area.

Christians United Outreach Center runs the BackPack Pals program, which provides food to students in need and during the summer when they don’t have the luxury of a school lunch.

Among its many duties, Lee County Social Services offers financial as well as job training and placement, youth work permits, aid to the blind and

much more.

Boys & Girls Clubs provide educational and recreational opportunities after school and during the summer for children giving parents the peace of mind they need while working to maintain their families.

There are also services available countywide to meet specific needs from cancer patients getting free rides to their appointments with Highway to Healing, to domestic violence survivors can finding refuge with in HAVEN in Lee County. The list goes on and on.

No matter your need, someone in Lee County will be there to help.

NEIGHBORHOODS & HOMES

Sanford, Lee County offer best of two worlds

S

anford offers the best qualities of a growing city and a small town.

Known as the “Well-Centered” community, Sanford is midway between coastal North Carolina and the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill and the Research Triangle Park are all within an hour’s drive.

Sanford’s population in 2018 was 29,917, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, and has its own thriving programs in arts and performances including the renowned Temple Theatre, home to a variety of plays 52 ▶ Herald FYI 2020

and musicals that are offered yearround.

The city’s rich history is documented in murals painted on brick buildings in the central business district recognizing soldiers of World War II, who left their loved ones behind as they boarded a train in Sanford as they headed to battle; another pays homage to hometown pilots who did battle in the skies over Europe and in the Pacific Theatre.

Another honors hometown hero, the late Herb Thomas, who was NASCAR’s Grand National Series Champion in 1951 and 1953. The

city’s African-American culture is honored with a mural of two of Lee County’s great leaders in education, W.B. Wicker and A.L. “Link” Boykin.

The housing market has grown in recent years as Lee County lures new businesses and industries. More than two subdivisions are in the works, but drive a few miles down the road and chances are you’ll find a grassy pasture that’s home to horses or cows enjoying a meal.

Average housing prices range from between $150,000 to $200,000 and Sanford has a wealth of Realtors to help in the hunt for the perfect home.

All-Stars celebrate a World Series summer

T

he Deep River Northview All-Stars played a long and championship-winning summer reaching the Cal Ripken League 9U World Series in August.

The all-stars team won the North Carolina state championship and the Cal Ripken regional championship in Fredericksburg, Virginia to earn the World Series trip to Jensen Beach, Florida.

The all-stars were Caiden Cox, Chaz Vought, Dallas Roberts, Ben Harrington, Aidyn Williams, Oliver Morrison, Sam Taylor, Brody Brown, Ryan Byrd, Luke Waters, Tyler Mitchell and Brycen Long.

In the World Series, Deep River 54 ▶ Herald FYI 2020

Northview beat Florida state champion Okeeheelee Tribe 7-3 and beat Phipps Park (Florida) 8-1 in the pool play round. Deep River Northview rolled to a 14-3 win over Lower Dauphin (Pennsylvania) in the quarterfinals.

After a loss in the semifinals, the all-stars finished their great season with a 5-4 win versus Jeffersontown (Kentucky).

Deep River Northview went undefeated through the state and regional championships.

The team, out of Deep River Northview Optimist Park’s league, was coached by Tommy Harrington, Ricky Taylor and Mike Thomas.

“It’s amazing. We’ve had so much support in this county. It’s really overwhelming and the coaches, and the players, too, we’re truly thankful,” Harrington said.

The players became better players, and friends, through the season and all the road trips.

“They have a great time in the hotels, out to eat, swimming - when I allow it,” said Harrington. “It’s a fun group. They create a game out of anything, anywhere they’re at.”

“I have to give them days off because they’d practice and play (baseball) every day. I have to tell them, ‘No, we need the rest.’”

Harrington said.

We work for YOU not insurance companies - to offer you the best coverage at the most competitive price.

Young golfers, maybe with 80 or 90 years of golf ahead of them, get to take over Sanford Golf Course for a week each summer.

This summer, the course’s Junior Golf Club is scheduled for July 6-10.

Each morning, hopefully before the July heat and humidity get too tough, boys and girls ages 9-14 are invited to learn the game, from the very basics, to learning the game’s etiquette and going out on the course for a tournament by the last day of camp.

Each year, about 60 kids have fun while learning fundamentals and sportsmanship.Course pros and players who are or, not so long ago, were standout high school, college and pro tour players serve as teachers and camp counselors.

The day after camp ends, July 11, Sanford Golf Course hosts its traditional Sanford Exchange Club Parent-Child Tournament. The day is an opportunity for parents and kids, from the kids showing off what they’ve just learned during the week, to parents and children who’ve played Sanford Golf Course going back decades, to compete and have fun.

If you want to get fit, play a round or just take a walk, Lee County’s got plenty of options for you.

HOW DO I OBTAIN A FISHING LICENSE?

They can be purchased at several stores in the area — including Walmart, Jackson Brothers and Broadway Hardware — or online through the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission.

Exactly what kind of license you need can be a trickier question. There are several options depending on where you’re fishing (inland or the coast) and how long the license is valid.

The basic Inland Fishing License that many local fishermen choose is currently $20 per year, though youth age 16 and under are exempt. ncwildlife.org
