It’s time for Rowan County to develop business and open the floodgates for opportunity.

You know why the drug rate is so high in this county? It’s because the young people have nothing to do. Build nightclubs, develop tourist attractions like Top Golf and bring retail giants like Target. When I am off work, I don’t stay around here. I go to Raleigh, Charlotte and Winston-Salem.

The leaders of this county need to be held accountable and bring tourism to Rowan.
