Waxhaw is a friendly, vibrant, prosperous town where history and creativity build an
enduring, safe and healthy community for people of all ages to live, learn, work, play or
grow a business.
TOWN MANAGER’S MESSAGE
It’s Spring Break for a lot of Waxhaw families, and the downtown area is buzzing. Kids and
their families are out walking, playing, and taking advantage of all the small businesses
that we have downtown. Classes are wrapping up and summer is just around the corner.
In Town Hall, we are almost finished with our own class project: a civic engagement course
called Waxhaw 101. It has been incredible to see the eagerness of our residents to learn
more about town staff and their responsibilities, and I’m thankful that our first run has
been so successful. You can learn more about Waxhaw 101 on page 4.
Our Board of Commissioners has been busy as well, reviewing budget items and addressing
their priorities and the town’s needs over the last few months. These include approving
the Parks & Recreation Master Plan proposal (pg. 5) and reviewing noise ordinances to
accomodate our downtown residents. You can read up on their accomplishments and
teamwork on page 6.
Speaking of teamwork, I want to take this time to ackowledge the hard work of our
Public Services Department. Public Services is responsible for the grounds maintenance,
cemetery management, and overseeing various projects in the town. In an effort to bring
our town together to preserve our community, Public Services is organizing a Litter
Sweep event on April 28th. Grab your neighbors (and kids 12 & up!) and meet up with
fellow residents to clean up one of Waxhaw’s streets. You can learn more about how to get
involved on page 5.
I hope you and your families had a restful, sunny, and safe Spring Break. Welcome back!
