Barfield sworn-in on CFCC board of trustees

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — New Hanover County Commissioner Jonathan Barfield had his first Cape Fear Community College Board of Trustees meeting as a new board member. He was officially sworn-in at Thursday night’s meeting.

Barfield said the county and CFCC have a close connection when it comes to the workforce and economic development.

“It’s a great partnership from an economic development standpoint, and it’s a tool that we can indeed use, and when companies are coming to our community they are looking for a partner that will help the workforce,” said Barfield.

Barfield was appointed to CFCC’s board of trustees to replaced Woody White earlier this month.
