Q: Why should you keep the Northwest FINDER handy and use it often?

1. To start with, there’s a lot – and we mean a lot – of valuable information packed into it, and it’s all specifi cally about your community and northwest Guilford County.

2. It will save you oodles of time because you don’t have to go in multiple directions to get the answers you need when you need them.

3. By familiarizing yourself with its contents and keeping it handy, people will think you’re extra smart because you somehow always know where to go and who to call forjust about anything in northwest Guilford County.

(As a bonus, it’s totally free to you, thanks to our advertisers – now that’s what we call a great deal!).

After fi elding many phone calls and performing countless searches to fi nd the answers to commonly asked ques-tions, the idea for this community directory for northwest Guilford County was born seven years ago. As we have done in previous years, we’ve once again challengedourselves to make the FINDER even more intuitive andall-encompassing than last year. What you have before you is what we believe to be a challenge met.

As you’ll see, the FINDER offers a wide variety of information, and whether you’re a newcomer, lifetime resident or some-where in between, it’s a publication worthy of keeping close by so that when those inevitable questions about something in your community surface, the answer will be right at your fi ngertips (in print or online at www.nwobserver.com).

On behalf of our staff and advertisers, thanks for taking the time to see what this year’s FINDER has to offer. We welcome your feedback on our 2015 edition and invite your suggestions for how we can make next year’sFINDER even more valuable.

AT A GLANCEWhen Francis North, the first

Earl of Guilford, had a county named for him in 1771, he could have never foreseen the Guilford County of today. Broken off from Orange County, Guilford is now the third most populated county in the state, following only by Mecklenburg and Wake. Its county seat, Greensboro, is the state’s third largest city.

An excellent transportation system that includes highways, rail and the Piedmont Triad International Airport make it easier than ever to access the area.

Several institutions of higher learning are located in Guilford County, including Guilford College, the first coeducational academic insti-tution in the southern United States, NC A&T, Greensboro College, UNC-Greensboro, Bennett College and Elon University School of Law.

The Steven Tanger Center for the Perform-ing Arts, a multi-use venue to be located in Downtown Greensboro, will be a state-of-the-art facility with approximately 3,000 seats to serve multiple functions, ranging from Broadway shows to the Bryan Series to symphony performances to comedians, pop and jazz concerts and family enter-tainment. Construction is underway and expected to be completed in 2016.

SUMMERFIELD

AT A GLANCEThough incorporated in 1996, Summerfield

dates back to the 1700s. Originally known as Bruce’s Crossroads, it was named for Charles

Bruce, a Revolutionary War patriot, who settled in the area in 1769. It was renamed in 1812 for Rev. John Summerfield, an evangelist who chose to relocate there.

Well over a century later, Summerfield citizens engaged in a different sort of battle than the ones their founding fathers had experienced – this time, it was to stop unattractive commercial pursuits such as a huge rock quarry from locating in the town, and to prevent Greensboro from annexing the community.

Shortly after incorporating in 1996, Summerfield approved voluntary annexation requests from neighboring property owners who also wanted to be included in the town limits. Summerfield now encompasses 26.56 miles and is Guilford County’s third largest municipality.

With a sometimes explosive rate of new resi-dents streaming into the community over the last two decades, Summerfield faces many of the same challenges other neighboring com-munities face – how to balance residential and commercial growth with the desire to preserve the town’s rural character. The widening of U.S. 220 from a two-lane highway to a four-lane highway with a median, coupled with an I-73 interchange to be located on a rural stretch of N.C. 150 between Deboe Road and Henson Forest Drive, will present ad-ditional challenges to those who seek to honor the town’s history, celebrate the Summerfield of today, and plan for the inevitable changes on the horizon.

WHAT MADE THE NEWS IN 2014BUDGET A proposed 2.6-mile trail segment to extend the A&Y Greenway through Summerfi eld took a few steps backward in early 2014 after some landowners ob-jected to the proposed segment passing through or near their private property. After the town council unanimously stated it would not resort to eminent domain, the Trails and Open Space Committee went back to the drawing board. As of December 2014, the com-mittee was still working on developing an alternative trail route.

Summerfi eld Fire Department expanded Station 9, located on Sum-merfi eld Road, by about 5,000 square feet (2,500 on the residential side of the building and 2,500 on the administra-tive side). Construction was completed in July 2014.

In February 2014, citizens turned out in large numbers to voice op-position to proposed revisions to the town’s public nuisance ordinance and abandoned, nuisance and junked vehicle ordinance which were initially written in 1999. The revisions were ultimately tabled and as of December 2014, alternate wording to the ordi-nances had not come back before the town council.

With the U.S. 220 widening proj-ect in full swing, construction crews, heavy equipment and bright orange barrels lined the 13.2-mile stretch of highway that is being transformed from two lanes to four lanes with a median. It is estimated the widening project will cost $96.2 million; DOT representatives say its expected completion date is on schedule for December 2016.

Cheryl Gore joined the Town of Summerfi eld’s staff on Feb. 24, 2014, after being hired as a part-time

events coordinator and assistant to the town manager. Gore holds a master’s degree in elementary education and has taught at several schools throughout the Triad. Julie Reid, who had been working as the town’s interim planner on a contract basis, was hired on May 2, 2014 as the town’s full-time planner.

In June 2014, the Town of Sum-merfi eld purchased two tracts of land totaling 16.1 acres. The smaller tract, at .35 acre, is located diagonally across the street from the town hall (intersec-tion of N.C. 150 and Summerfi eld Road), and includes the two-story historic Gordon Hardware building.

Plans are to renovate the building, built in the mid-1800s, and use it for administrative and meeting space. The town has not yet announced plans for how it will use the 15.66-acre tract.

As part of the bridge improve-ment program approved by the N.C. General Assembly in 2011, two bridges were replaced in Summerfi eld last year, one on Bunch Road and the other on Strawberry Road.

Summerfi eld Town Council voted to reduce the town’s property tax from 3.5 cents per $100 property valuation to 2.75 cents per $100 property valuation, effective with the July 1, 2014-June 30, 2015 FY budget.

The Town of Summerfi eld and Summerfi eld Recreation Association came to a temporary impasse last year over how much SRA should pay to use the athletic facilities at Summerfi eld Ath-letic Park. The two entities reached an agreement in late December 2014 that will have SRA once again playing ball at the athletic park in Spring 2015.

STOKESDALE

AT A GLANCEIn 1886 a railroad station was built to service

what was then the town of “Pond” (origi-nally established as Green Pond in the 1860s because of a swampy pond in the general area

of what is now Ellisboro Road and Highway 68). The following year the town’s name was changed to Stokesdale; it is not known for certain whether the name was derived from that of a railroad executive, a train conductor or the man who surveyed the area at the time.

First incorporated in 1907, Stokesdale went bank-rupt during the Depression and became inactive in the 1930s. The state revoked the town’s charter in 1971, but Stokesdale was incorporated for a second time on Nov. 9, 1989, and has remained a healthy, growing community in the 25 years since.

To supplement the law enforcement coverage it gets from the Guilford County sheriff’s department, Stokesdale employs a full-time deputy. It is the only incorporated town in northwest Guilford County which operates its own municipal water system; the system was installed in 2003 after the town received a $3 million grant from the state to help address water contamination issues. Additionally, Stokesdale is the only town in northwest Guilford County that does not charge its citizens a property tax.

Though still considered rural, since the late 1990s many of the tobacco farms that were once so prevalent throughout the community have been replaced by residential develop-ments. With a downtown business district, shopping center and other businesses and industries in outlying areas, and its intersec-tion with three major highways – N.C. 68, U.S. 158 and N.C. 65 – the town’s grow-ing population reflects its appeal to those who choose to work in a nearby city and come home to the country.

WHAT MADE THE NEWS IN 2014BUDGET

With a $105 million road-widening and bypass project for U.S. 158 on the Department of Transportation’s future projects list, the town revived its U.S. 158 Committee in early 2014. The committee met over the months of March-June before recommend-ing the town council request DOT drop Section C of the project (which encompassed a 6.5-mile bypass through Stokesdale), lower on its priority list, with the hope that re-prioritizing the section would “kill” it entirely. A study to decide which two of four alternate bypass paths in Stokesdale to eliminate has been delayed and no funds have been allocated for the segment of the bypass that would go through Stokesdale.

Joe Thacker, who previously served on and chaired the town’s Planning and Zoning Board, was appointed in August 2014 to serve the remainder of Gary Albert’s term on the town council; Al-bert, who had been appointed to the council in January 2014, announced his resignation two months later after saying his wife had serious health issues and he wanted to be free to travel with her as her health allowed, and to care for her as her medical needs increased.

Randle Jones, 56, who served on the Stokesdale Town Council from 1991 to 2013 (and as the town’s mayor for 18 of those

years), was one of four district court judges appointed by Gov. Pat McCrory on March 11, 2014. Jones was appointed to serve the remaining two years of Judge Sherry Alloway’s term.

Stokesdale Fire Department celebrated 60 years of serving the community last year. Since it was formed in 1954, the department has expanded its fi rst response coverage area from what initially encompassed only three square miles to 36 square miles, parts of which extend from Guilford County, where the station is located on U.S. 158 in Stokesdale, into Rockingham County. Seven fi re chiefs have preceded Todd Gauldin, who has served as the department’s chief since 1992.

In May 2014, developer Kevan Comb’s received approval to rezone 113 acres of the family-owned Dawn Acres Golf Course on N.C. 68 for a residential devel-opment. The golf course opened to the public in 1967 and had been on the market for over four years before Combs offered to pur-chase the majority of the property, excluding the front 30 acres that borders N.C. 68.

Diana Marcus was hired as the town’s part-time deputy clerk in September. Marcus and her husband lived in Florida for 30 years before moving to Stokesdale in 2008. The couple has two adult children.

ISO Rating: 6 (Awarded by the Insur-ance Service Offi ce, an ISO rating analyz-es a department’s fi refi ghting abilities and assigns a numerical rating from 1 to 10, with 1 being the best. These ratings are used by insurance companies to calculate fi re insurance premiums. Without a full municipal water system with hydrants, it is diffi cult for a department to achieve a rating lower than a 6.)

Burn permits and info on open burning can be obtained from local fi re stations. The Stokesdale Fire Department also has an auxiliary that provides support to fi refi ghters during a fi re or other emergen-cy. Additionally, the Ladies Auxiliary sells refl ective address markers, which enables emergency responders to see house num-bers clearly in an emergency situation. The markers, which can be mounted vertically or horizontally, are $15 each and can be purchased at the fi re department.

OAK RIDGE

AT A GLANCEOak Ridge is appropriately named after the oak

trees running along the highest ridge in Guilford County, which was likely a footpath dating back to the days when only Native Americans popu-lated the area. As white settlers began migrating to

the area, it evolved into a rural farming community. The town gained fame as a place of higher learning when, in 1852, several local families established what is now Oak Ridge Military Academy, the oldest military school in North Carolina.

Fearing they would be overtaken by larger cities and towns, residents of Oak Ridge voted in incorporate in 1998. By doing so, they hoped to not only avoid the higher taxes of those municipalities, but also to have a say in how their town was governed and the direction of its growth.

Not only is the rural landscape of the community ap-pealing, but a small but thriving commercial district, 10-minute drive to Piedmont International Airport, and easy access to I-40 and the cities of Greensboro, High Point and Winston-Salem provide residents with the bonus of convenience.

In 2007 the town built a town hall on Linville Road and a few years later acquired about 75 acres across the street; with the help of a $500,000 matching grant from the N.C. Parks and Recreational Trust Fund, Phase 1 of Oak Ridge Town Park was built and today is used by residents of all ages. The first part of the park’s Phase 2 is expected to be completed by Fall 2015.

In 2015, the town council plans to move forward on plans to develop a municipal water system, prepare for the changes that will inevitably come with the U.S. 220/N.C. 68 Connector (future I-73), expand on the community’s walkability and complete a thoroughreview/update of its Land Use Plan.

WHAT MADE THE NEWS IN 2014BUDGET

Though the town did not receive the $198,257 Parks and Recreational Trust Fund matching grant it applied for in January 2014, the town council voted last year to fund and move forward with the fi rst part of Phase 2 of Oak Ridge Town Park. The new park features include a performance pavilion/amphitheater, additional restroom facility and con-necting paved pathways. Construc-tion costs are estimated at $259,623 and construction is expected to be completed by Fall 2015.

Oak Ridge Elementary PTO held fundraisers and drew from reserves to correct a safety design fl aw in the school’s front entranceway that allowed visitors to bypass the front offi ce and have immediate access to students via the gym and main hall-ways. At a cost of almost $50,000, a glass wall and double doors with locks were installed over the holiday break in December so that students would return to a more secure learn-ing environment.

Bill Bruce, town planner on con-tract from Guilford County for the last eight years, became a full-time em-ployee of the town on July 9. Bruce lives in Greensboro with his wife and three sons. He has a bachelor’s degree in English and geography from UNC Chapel Hill and a master’s degree in city planning from Georgia Tech. Before becoming Oak Ridge’s town planner, Bruce was Summerfi eld’s town planner from 2004 to 2006.

After another fatal accident at the N.C. 68 and E. Harrell Road inter-section on May 6, NCDOT acceler-ated its plans to make safety improve-

ments in the area which had seen 19 rear-end accidents between 2007 and 2012. The road improvement project involved closing the existing entrance to E. Harrell Road off N.C. 68 and relocating the road to the south of its current location, and installing a left-turn lane for southbound travelers turning off N.C. 68 onto E. Harrell Road; the project got underway on June 30 and was completed in late November 2014.

Two of the town’s most famous residents announced last year they were moving to Charlotte. Recording artist Chris Daughtry’s 44-acre estate at 8488 Haw River Road was sold on Oct. 14 to the founder of FFF Enter-prises, Patrick Schmidt, and his wife, Greta, for $2.3 million. And just down the road, NASCAR race car driver Kevin Harvick, who races for Stewart-Hass Racing located just outside of Charlotte, announced he was moving to the Queen City to be closer to extended family. His 12,500-square-foot mansion at 8419 Haw River Road in Oak Ridge rests on 19.8 acres and was listed at $3.5 million.

A 12-member Land Use Com-mittee was appointed in September and charged with reviewing and updating the town’s land use plan. The committee conducted a com-munity survey and held its fi rst open house on Nov. 5, at which citizens shared their thoughts about roads, the desire for community gathering places, more varied housing options and new businesses. The committee anticipates it will take up to a year to complete a thorough review of the land use plan and provide recom-mendations for updating it.

We don’t just build houses, we design lifestyles. Whether you’re remod-eling or building new, we take the time to listen to you and help you decide which design and features best meet your needs.

I’m a craftsman who takes personal pride in every project, and I spend a lot of time at the site doing much of the work myself.

My wife, Casey, is our full-time designer and has a talent for working alongside our clients to determine the best look for their

home. We would love the opportunity to speak with you about your building and remodeling needs.”
