AS OF NOVEMBER 2026
This whole section speaks as of November 2026, and its dated lines were re-read against that month. The census numbers are the 2020 count and the American Community Survey five-year estimates as published in November 2026; the officers are the holders of 11 November 2026 on the town's own pages; the election results are unofficial returns, and every winner named in these files prints as a winner, not a holder, until the January seatings. Four questions stand open on the record, and this build carries them open rather than answered. The station: Site B backed, parcels transferred, no final decision — the express words of the commissioners' resolution of 12 November 2025. The battery plant: sole Samsung ownership, a finished shell, a December 2027 completion deadline, and a restart the county was still awaiting word of in late October 2026. The ban: a drafting process begun 22 September 2026 toward prohibiting further hyperscale data centers in the unincorporated county — begun, not enacted, in the record reached. The town's own two seats: decided 3 November 2026 by voters whose choice the reached record does not carry — GAP-NC1-GOV-1 of the government section, settler the County Clerk's certified precinct summary, the first document the next update window of this build will read. The estimates-program population figure for the town likewise stands unreached (the Census API's key gate; settler, the Bureau's published estimates tables read in a browser seat). What the next window settles first is named here so the record can be checked against it: the certification, the Samsung meeting's outcome, the Area Plan Commission's draft, and any movement on Site B.
