The New Hill Community Association, Inc. is an alliance of neighbors in the historic community of New Hill, North Carolina.  

Our mission is to preserve and sustain the unique quality of life in our area by facilitating interaction between citizens. We are committed to resisting condemnation of property for facilities that will not benefit our community, opposing the construction of a sewage treatment plant on land formerly owned by the Seymour's that would predominantly service other outside communities, and advancing our common interests by acting as a group with neighboring communities.

The US Army Corps of Engineers just released their findings on the Final EIS for the sewage plant in New Hill.  As expected, the Corps sided with the Western Wake Partners desire to construct their sewage plant in the center of New Hill.  Because the WWP and the Corps have consistently refused to consider the societal impacts on the residents of New Hill, our only recourse is to challenge this decision in court.

The BBQ and Bake Sale fundraiser was a great success.  You can view pictures of the event by clicking Here.

 

 

New Hill Oral History Book

The Second Edition of the New Hill Oral History book is ready. It has expanded to 150 pages, with more interviews and pictures than the previous version, four years ago.

The price is $20 plus $5 to cover postage.

You can mail a check for $25,  with your return address to:


New Hill Community Association
P. O. Box 68
New Hill, NC 27562

There are 5 2-sided pages in the back of the book that are possible to print in color, which would cost an extra $4. If you would like yours with those pages in color, please specify that, and include your check for $29 plus postage.

With this next stage of our efforts to hold off the sewage plant from downtown New Hill, the profits from this book will help with some of the costs required to support the UNC Southern Coalition for Social Justice in their guidance and efforts for us.

 

 

Environmental injustice - when members of disadvantaged, ethnic, minority, poor or other marginalized groups are disproportionately burdened with environmental hazards or risks for the benefit of affluent, predominately white communities and corporations.

The Southern Coalition for Social Justice, who is working with the New Hill Community Association, has developed a video about New Hill, and our endeavors to prevent the Western Wake Partners from dumping a sewage plant into the center of our community.  You can view the video at this link:
