Medical Facility Coming Soon to White Lake

The Town of White Lake will soon add a medical facility to serve residents and visitors.

The Town recently purchased a house and lot next to City Hall and are renovating and hope to have it officially opened prior to the upcoming lake season.

The facility, located at 1921 White Lake Drive is currently nearing the end of a make-over and will house White Lake Family Practice, PLLC.

The town has invested over $100,000 in the renovation, over $90,000 has come from grants.  The NC Rural Center provided $54,362 in grants, Golden Leaf added another $34,900 and NC Step $2,000.  Another grant may be coming soon.  The building and lot belongs to the citizens of White Lake. Town officials say they will lease it to a provider and the announcement should be made soon.

Mayor Goldston Womble said the town had been hopeful of locating a medical facility for several years and when the house was placed on the market it was a very attractive location.
