Construction to Start Soon in Belmont Development

Habitat for Humanity of Gaston County hopes to begin construction on a 28-home development in north Belmont in August.

The development, called Dixon Village after longtime Habitat volunteer Bill Dixon, will consist of Habitat houses, homes for people in jobs like law enforcement and teaching, and market rate housing. 

Habitat is in the final stages of getting approval from Belmont to begin construction, said Executive Director Kay Peninger.
