Dear Mr. Moose: As was discussed on Monday, July 14~, proper access to the Cabarrus Arena & Events Center is essential. Related and supportive development around the Arena is also critical for the continued gray-ch and utility of the Arena. With the widening alld road improvements of NC 49 and the scheduled access changes to the Arena (including restricting the NC 49 access to a right-in only), it appears that two additional locations for access should be incorporated into the current project to create the proper access and related development around the Cabarrus Arena.
