Mint Hill Residents,

I wanted to give you a brief update on the Town of Mint Hill Comprehensive Plan.  The Consultant is working on the Existing Conditions Summary based on the information provided in the survey and the previous community forum and will move on to the Phase 2 Land Use Alternatives.  Another Community Forum will be held later this summer for them to present the land use plan options.  We recommend you sign-up for future project correspondence on the project website so you can stay involved throughout the planning process. 

Mother’s Day is an important time to honor motherhood and the influence of mothers in our community.  Our relationship to Mother’s Day is based on our own experience. Some of you will be experiencing Mother’s Day for the first time. Congratulations to new moms! For some of you, it may be the first time without our beloved mother, grandmother, aunt, daughter, partner, or sister. We acknowledge your grief. And for many of us, this Mother’s Day will be a celebration of newly found gratitude and resilience.  

Last year, we were unable to celebrate with our moms. None of us could have imagined that we would not be gathered at a favorite restaurant or a family barbecue surrounded by our children and grandchildren. But we survived being away from the ones we love, and we are slowly moving toward what we once called normal.

Stay well, continue to be vigilant about wearing your mask and get vaccinated.  Do it for your mom and all the mothers and grandmothers out there.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Brad Simmons
Mint Hill Mayor
