Central Pines Welcomes 50th Member: Taylortown!

We are excited to share that we welcomed our 50th Member Government to Central Pines Regional Council at last night's Board meeting! Taylortown, located in Moore County, was voted in as the 50th Member. CPRC is now one member shy of 100% membership!

This initiative was put in motion by CPRC Chair Brett Gantt (Town of Apex), with help from CPRC staff, as well as CPRC Delegate Wilma Laney (Town of Aberdeen). Thank you for all your hard work!
