The Keys to Harnett’s Future
Harnett County has two primary vulnerabilities:
1) Unrestrained growth in housing that adds pressure to all levels of available resources, from too few first responders, to rural road deterioration, to school overcrowding.
2) An inadequate tax base that relies almost entirely on assessing real estate, resulting in increased property taxes.
Harnett County's Budget Crisis
As Harnett County continues to grow rapidly, the budget streams have not expanded to keep pace with the growth. The county leadership must advocate for a more diversified tax base in order to build a better future.
