A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE YORK COUNTY FOR ITS MANY ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND TO DECLARE TUESDAY, APRIL 1, 2003, AS "YORK COUNTY DAY".

Whereas, the population of York County has grown over twenty-five percent during the past ten years to a current total of one hundred seventy thousand and is expected to grow by another twenty-eight thousand by the year 2015; and

Whereas, York County's total estimated assessed property valuation for 2002 exceeded three hundred fifty million dollars; and

Whereas, a total of sixty-four companies, some nationally known, announced plans to locate or expand in York County in 2002, providing a capital investment of over seventy-two million dollars; and

Whereas, York County recognizes the importance of transportation planning as it relates to economic development and qualify of life concerns, as has been demonstrated by the adoption of a one cent sales tax that will generate ninety-nine million dollars for road improvements, the county's successful Infrastructure Bank Board application that resulted in one hundred thirty million dollars for a critical regional connector, the business community's support of the Southern Metro Area Regional Transportation initiative, and a growing recognition of the importance of a regional mass transit system. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize York County for its many accomplishments and declare Tuesday, April 1, 2003, as "York County Day".

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to each of the four chambers of commerce that make up the Council of Chambers of York County: the Clover Chamber of Commerce, the Greater York Chamber of Commerce, the Lake Wylie Chamber of Commerce, and the York County Regional Chamber of Commerce.
