Gastonia interns present summer projects covering public records, water education and economic analysis
Summary
Four city interns summarized projects from across departments, including a public-records SOP, water-treatment brochures, a downtown story map and a budget trend analysis; council and staff thanked them for their contributions.
Interns who worked across city departments this summer presented highlights of their projects to the council. Kaysha Allen described two key projects: developing a standard operating procedure for public records requests and producing educational brochures about residential water quality questions. "The 2 projects I thought were worth highlighting are the development of a standard operation procedure for public records request," Allen said.
Other interns described outreach and analytic work: Megan Carroll shared online marketing materials and a Downtown Gastonia story map; Owen Sloan presented a low-to-moderate-income map and a budget trend analysis; Nicole Tran summarized work on an AI policy draft for the city attorney's office and tenant-landlord rights flyers. Councilmembers congratulated the interns and thanked staff for mentoring them.
