Where are we? Where do we want to go? And how do we get there?

These are a few of the questions we are asking as we plan for the growth of our City. Over 100 people attended a summit last night to begin answering these questions. Members of the public met with city staff and consultants to answer a wide range of questions regarding transportation, neighborhood, environmental and business core values they want to see preserved and/or encouraged to develop in Kannapolis.

Kannapolis is in the midst of a great transformation as people and businesses are coming to the City. Redevelopment, new neighborhoods, road improvements and economic development initiatives are bringing opportunities for residents.

To ensure we plan for the growth, the City is creating a shared collaborative vision plan, called Move Kannapolis Forward. If you missed the summit you can still participate. We invite you to give us your input on how the City should handle the growth that is occurring and will occur over the next decade.

Please take our short survey here. 

Your answers will be used to help us draft our plan for the future. Deadline to take the survey is May 1.

Move Kannapolis Forward is a community-driven process to update the city's comprehensive plan that will serve as a blueprint for our shared future. This process will establish the city’s broadest public policy document, setting forth long-range vision, goals, and policies for transportation, housing, development, the environment, the economy, and public services.
