CONCORD — Cabarrus County Board of Commissioners will hold public hearings on the November 2014 general obligation bond referendums at its July 21 meeting, 6:30 p.m., at the Cabarrus County Government Center, 65 Church St. SE.

The public hearings are the next step in the process of placing $11 million in school bonds and $9 million in community college bonds on the November ballot.

The school bonds would help replace the existing Royal Oaks Elementary in northwest Cabarrus County. The community college bonds provide up to $9 million to construct a new Advanced Technology Center for Rowan-Cabarrus Community College.

Both sets of bonds include the acquisition, construction, installation and equipping of the facilities, including the acquisition of necessary land and rights-of-way.
