PUBLIC FACILITIES <br /> <br />SCHOOLS <br /> <br />The increased development in Cabarms County <br />prompted the Cabarrus County School District to <br />developed the Cabarrus County 15-Year Facility <br />Plan that outlines current school enrollment numbers, <br />school population projections, and timelines for <br />acquiring land and constructing new schools, replacing <br />old schools, or expanding existing schools. It should be <br />noted that the school's plan was based upon <br />information and resources at the time of its adoption <br />and will be amended from time to time as the need <br />arises. <br /> <br />The table below contains results of this Facility Plan which included estimates that as of <br />September 4, 2001 the schools in this area had the following populations: <br /> <br />Table 6 - 2001 Student Populations <br /> <br />School Name Students <br />Mount Pleasant Elementary 905 <br />School <br />Mount Pleasant Middle 760 <br />School <br />Mount Pleasant High 954 <br />School <br /> <br />The only facility improvement projected by the plan is a new instructional gym at Mount Pleasant <br />High School. Because the school's facility plan does not project a need for new school facilities <br />in the planning area this plan does not attempt to identify areas for future facilities. <br /> <br />LIBRARY <br /> <br />The Mount Pleasant Library is located at 8556 Cook Street and is <br />a tremendous asset to the northeast region. The Library was <br />completed on August 26, 1996 and is home to over 5, 000 <br />volumes. The Library serves over 200 patrons a day and is <br />supported by fundraising activities sponsored by Friends of <br />Mount Pleasant Library Incorporated. The Library also <br />coordinates programs for the community as well as supplying <br />meeting facilities for any public, non-profit organization. The Mount Pleasant Library is a <br />wonderful resource and supports residents and citizens across the northeast region. At this time <br />the library is meeting the level of service required in this area. <br /> <br />RECREATION <br /> <br />February 2002 marked the completion of a two-year long planning effort to develop The Livable <br />Community Blueprint for Cabarrus County. The purpose of this document is to guide <br /> <br /> <br />
