Developer ironing out new Walmart project

Plans for a Walmart Supercenter shopping complex are moving forward as the developer has filed a brownfields agreement with the North Carolina Department of Environmental and Natural Resources and opened public comments.

Morganton Retail Investment, LLC, filed the agreement pertaining to properties at 500 Hopewell Road and 400 Henredon Drive, the location of the vacant Henredon Furniture Plant.

WRS, Inc. manages Morganton Retail Investment. The public has 30 days from Friday to comment on the brownfields agreement.

The North Carolina Brownfields Program allows prospective developers of brownfield sites (where environmental contamination hinders redevelopment) to negotiate an agreement that would define activities needed to make the site suitable for reuse. This does not penalize the developer, who may not be responsible for contaminating a site, and does not require the developer to clean up the site to regulatory standards.
