LOCATION


The City of Statesville is located in Western North Carolina, midway between Virginia and the South Carolina state line. It is the county seat and practically in the center of Iredell County which lies in the heart of the Piedmont industrial section of North Carolina. Charlotte is 40 miles to the south while Raleigh, the state capital, is 150 miles to the east. The surrounding country is high, rolling, well drained; drainage empties into the Catawba River some 10 miles to the Southwest. A perfect net- work of national and state hard surface highways radiate from States- ville, including routes from the Atlantic to the West Coast, Great Lakes to Florida, to Blowing Rock and mountain sections, and all points in and out of the state.


Bus service furnished by the Queen City Coach Company, Atlantic Greyhound and Parkway Bus Lines provide 76 daily schedules in all directions out of Statesville. City wide bus service by Statesville Motor Coach Company operating seven busses provide schedules 15 hours daily with special daily schedules to Troutman, Union Grove, Harmony and Taylorsville. Numerous motor truck lines operating out of and through Statesville, together with the Railway Express Company, pro- vide frequent and rapid freight and express service.


CLIMATE


Statesville and the surrounding country enjoy the splendid climatic conditions of the well-known Piedmont Section. The high plateau, pro- tected by mountain ranges, provide a mild even climate, free from prolonged extremes of temperature, with generous but not excessive rainfall. There is no interference with outdoor activities from freezing or snowfall. Destructive winds are practically unknown. The elevation and temperature combine to provide healthful living and industrial conditions.


BUSINESS INSTITUTIONS


Two state banks serving the local commercial and industrial require- ments with an industrial bank for individual needs show resources of $19,114,657.79. In addition two building and loan associations have

resources of $1,622,247.35 available for home and business construction. Some 300 retail and service establishments serve the city and a wide surrounding area.


RAIL TRANSPORTATION


Rail transportation service is afforded by the Southern Railway Sys- tem and the Alexander Railroad. Connections at Spencer Transfer 30 miles to the east provide quick freight service to all the principal markets and to the southern coastal cities. Passenger train service is provided by convenient schedules. Excellent undeveloped industrial sites are available within or immediately outside the city liimts with all utility services, highway and railway advantages.


LABOR


A splendid type of labor is available in this section. Over 100 manu- facturing industries employ a large number of labor, male and female. A wide range of skilled classifications are included, for the reason that present industrial activities are widely diversified. However, the larger porton of the workers are experenced in textiles or wood-working, these being the predominating industries at present. The basic industry of Iredell County is farming and with the advent of the Carnation Con- densery in 1939, dairying and cattle breeding has become a major agricultural industry.


A large potential labor supply is available in Statesville and im- mediate surrounding communities. Unskilled workers from this vicinity because of unusual intelligence are easily trained and make dependable, skilled workers. New industries can be staffed without importing work- ers from a distance. There is no labor disturbance or agitating elements in this area; destructive strikes are unknown. Manufacturing wages of course conform with the various national codes.


ELECTRIC POWER


Electric current for power and light is furnished to domestic and industrial users of Statesville from the vast power developments of the Duke Power Company with distribution through the City's Light and Power Department, up to and including 28,500,000 K.W.D. for the year of 1949. Power is brought into Statesville over three transmission lines owned by the Duke Power Company. The quantity available is unlim- ited and the rates to industrial users favorable.


FUEL


Coal for industrial purposes is available to Statesville from the Ten- nessee, Kentucky and West Virginia fields. Gas for domestic and industrial use is available through the Public Service Company of North Carolina from their local plant.


WATER SUPPLY


The city's water supply is taken from near-by streams, from which it is pumped to settling basins. The water after filtering passes to a elevated stand-pipe of 1,000,000 gallons capacity. Present capacity of water plant is 3,500,000 gallons daily with 1,000,000 storage at plant.

PREFACE


(Continued from Page Nine)


A modern sewage disposal plant is employed, its capacity being ade- quate for years.


TAXES


The city and county tax rates in effect in Statesville are moderate when the services to its citizens are considered. The city rate is $1.30 and the county $1.25 per hundred on an assessed valuation equivalent to 75 percent of estimated 1941 level. No special taxes.


EDUCATION


An excellent public educational system is maintained in Statesville. The grammar schools are housed in three modern, fire-proof buildings; fully accredited high school and junior high school housed in their own up-to-date buildings. Two schools are provided for those of the colored race. The total enrollment in these schools is 3,051 which is cared for by a teaching staff of 116 people. Statesville is the seat- of Mitchell Col- lege, a co-educational institution sponsored by the Presbyterian Church and now in its 93rd year.


CHURCHES


All the principle religious faiths are represented by churches in Statesville for both white and colored citizens.


ATTITUDE TOWARD INDUSTRY


The City of Statesville is an old established community, its charter being dated January 9, 1847. While it is the present home of a number of old and important industrial enterprises, its alert citizenry are alive to the advantages of further industrial development and the opportunities available here for new industrial activities. Prospective industrial under- takings will find local business men, as represented by an active, fully staffed Chamber of Commerce, eager to extend intelligent cooperation. No local governmental restrictions or handicaps are placed in the way of new enterprises, but on the other hand local government and business officials cooperate in planning favorable industrial surroundings.


CITY GOVERNMENT


The municipal government of the City of Statesville is maintained on the Council-Manager Plan, its body being composed of four Alder- men in addition to the Mayor. The city government protective services include well organized Police and Fire Departments. The police force is composed of twenty-five full time paid day and night men selected through Civil Service appointment. The fire department maintains thir- teen paid men and a volunteer corps. The equipment consists of two American-La France 1750 gallon combination pumpers, one Dodge 500 gallon pump and 400 gallon storage tank, one Dodge ladder truck and one American-La France hook and aerial ladder truck.


There are 340 fire hydrants in which full water pressure is constantly maintained. The city maintains some 54 miles of paved streets, com- plete with sidewalks. White way lighting is maintained on main street, and adequate lghting is provided throughout the city.
