OLD BUSINESS

Engineer Report

 

  1. Annexation/Water-Sewer Request from citizens on Dogwood Lane

Mr. York stated that the residents on Dogwood may qualify for a CDBG grant based on their income.  The program measures the income of the residents and not the income of the Town as a whole.

 

ORC Report

Mr. Allred reported all was running well with the pump systems.

 

NEW BUSINESS

CARES ACT Funding

The Village has been allotted funds from the CARES Act to reimburse the town for costs related to the Corona Virus.  A question was asked if some of the funding allotted for The Village could be used towards new laptops or equipment to hold Town meetings virtually. Clerk York will include that in the plan he submits to the county.

 

Finance Report/Budget Amendment

Clerk York stated there were no budget amendments at this time.

 

OTHER BUSINESS

A comment was made that four wheelers and golf carts have been riding along easements on Yorkshire Dr. and are creating ruts. Clerk York stated he would put a notice in the newsletter not to ride along the easements.

Mrs. Folwell is now a Notary Public.
