[3:45]
funds from
FEA other towns either County I do want
[3:50]
to update fe's going to be in our office
on Wednesday and Friday this week um one
[3:57]
thing I want to appreciate people going
to do they're going to load all the data
[4:01]
of all the invoices we paid they'll do
all the data entry to ensure that it's
[4:05]
loaded properly um I have received
indications from them last week that
[4:12]
they they have money now they can start
releasing money and we have to see some
[4:17]
shortly one thing they require they
require a cancel check so we pay a bill
[4:21]
we got to wait till the check clears and
submit the invoice and the cancel check
[4:26]
but that's going to be loaded tomorrow
along with our equipment charges and
[4:30]
expenses being curred already one of the
um things I want to share on Harmon
[4:35]
field a lot of people are saying why is
it taking so
[4:38]
long um as you know we have a lot of mud
and debris out there female wanted to s
[4:45]
be sample we have gotten that done it
came back okay they also um the contract
[4:52]
we had selected last board
meeting done project and so they're
[4:58]
going to be starting in I guess mid
[5:02]
no first that's good okay we get the mud
out of there and so forth we also deal
[5:09]
with Poke County Poke County has now
came out last week they want us to get
[5:14]
an appraisal of the cabin the two
restrooms and the concession stand Poss
[5:20]
the open air gym that any repairs
improvements we do to any those assets
[5:26]
if exceed 50% of that cost and requireed
to tear it
[5:31]
down because the cabin is located in the
immediate flood area but I also look at
[5:39]
if a negative happens it's also an
opportunity one thing female wants to
[5:43]
work for this on that if we can't
replace the
[5:46]
boardwalk they asked me to get a cost of
the boardwalk which is
[5:50]
162,000 about $100,000 higher than it
was 20 years ago when I was here that
[5:55]
money can be transferred elsewhere into
the park so one of the areas that Brad
[6:01]
and I are looking thday at um is at the
empty Library building up there this may
[6:08]
be an opportunity to get that building
restored I think that would be a great
[6:12]
Community Center for the town in har
field but um like said him will be here
[6:17]
tomorrow we a lot of cost loaded um it
is a slow process I originally
[6:22]
anticipated be open up the park by March
1st that dat's not going to be met but
[6:27]
grad of Staff done a great great job to
open a portion on field and so that's
[6:33]
that's all plus but we like to get the
rest of the park open as soon as we can
[6:39]
then once the mud's out of there we'll
get an assessment of the playground
[6:43]
we'll have it inspected to make sure
it's safe and didn't get anything underl
[6:49]
but on the cabin uh the county has asked
us to retain the structural engineer
[6:53]
which should be out here next week to
see if the foundation of the cabin was
[6:57]
under this so that's kind of my brief
update for this month I'll keep it on
[7:03]
the agenda each month you stand any
questions on the equestrian part of the
[7:09]
park those are the Stalls they damaged
did damage IAD give an update on the
[7:15]
equestrian damage yes so the first two
barns near har Road the first Barn is
[7:20]
very minor damage mostly debris but the
secondy barn was hit pretty pretty hard
[7:27]
with debris no structural damage that we
can find but a lot of debr damage so a
[7:31]
lot of those horse dos have been under
we're to have those repacked with
[7:36]
screenings and then remat it the two
barns on the river side beside the cabin
[7:42]
there's about three four foot mud in
some of those stalls and there is some
[7:48]
Str one thing about the equestrian the
equest community Del jum Association F
[7:54]
riding Hunt Club they already expressed
interest they may want to up raise money
[8:00]
and volunteer time to get the question
Park up and running sooner so that may
[8:05]
be opening up ahead of the other
facilities have we lost any events
[8:10]
because yes we have cancellation har
field board canel all the events C and
[8:16]
and so forth until we can but the
question folks you want to get that part
[8:21]
opened up sooner which I think they'll
[8:26]
feel I want to say this for the record I
get people that start me I get emails I
[8:33]
get text why can't we use har field why
can't we use har field why can't we use
[8:37]
Harmon field and I guess I'm I'm
preaching to the choir does it not occur
[8:42]
to you that if I could open Harmon field
I
[8:45]
would I mean Common Sense would dictate
that the first day somebody got mad and
[8:50]
I asked the question do you know where
the River Bank Washed Out close to the
[8:54]
river no and I said we don't either do
you know where all that wood that broke
[8:59]
off with 20 penny nails in under the
sand do you know where that is no we
[9:04]
don't
either do you know whether there's any
[9:07]
poison or anything like that in that
sand at the time we didn't know either
[9:12]
that's why we closed it for your safety
so if you're watching please be
[9:18]
patient how much money have we already
spent out there to the town board is
[9:23]
already authorized up to $300,000 of
general fund money to go to Feld and the
[9:30]
day I went out was so bad I said half a
million is what it's going to cost and I
[9:34]
still think I'm
right my goal is to when F money starts
[9:40]
coming into the confer we created a
separate fund to restore har field it's
[9:46]
not out of har Bill bu it's separate
fund so as the money comes back we'll
[9:50]
reinvest it into the next phase of
destroying buildings and so forth U
[9:55]
because I I really don't I can't really
recommend the town going
[9:59]
further in the fund balance beyond the
$300,000 without shepardizing our
[10:05]
finances
yes are we able to get any grant money
[10:10]
from uh North Carolina Department of
Agriculture I know in the 2024 farm bill
[10:16]
they put in
equestrian so would we be able to get in
[10:20]
grant money I'm not sure I guess you
look at
[10:25]
that no we can definitely look at what
culture yeah in their 2024 farm bill
[10:32]
they they put equestrian um more
training facilities included in
[10:46]
Department anybody know anything we
please tell
[10:51]
us thank
you but I think once the cash starts
[10:56]
coming in I'll I'll send emails out to
the council keep informed our first
[11:01]
money but I think it's promising I think
there's direction from federal
[11:05]
government to start helping out nor
[11:08]
car you have any feel for when FEMA does
release funds how long it's going to
[11:14]
take us to
rec well
[11:20]
I question because initially the very
first Mee they said it' be very prent
[11:25]
then the next meeting we met with them
they said it might take two years
[11:30]
and then then I met with them recently
and they said
[11:35]
it's um it's going to be quicker now
part of the money was in the reoccurring
[11:41]
resolution passed by Congress few weeks
ago fre up some money so I I keep asking
[11:49]
Susan let me know
when the Ser Pro we have one invoice we
[11:53]
submitted just for for
$78,000 with the canceled check on once
[11:59]
that money comes in it'll give us
indication things are starting to work
[12:02]
now and I said when the reimbursements
come in it's going to stay in that fund
[12:07]
we did receive a check for 31,000 from
our insurance company for wind
[12:13]
damage F will take that off the top but
um we got $170,000 just a SP the M Clean
[12:22]
Up which to Bill out part of the
$300,000 you've already in for
[12:28]
us when the money comes in the first one
of the El I know that things are now
[12:33]
working and I feel more
confident one of the other things that
[12:38]
drives you crazy is that we work on a
budget from 1 January to 31 December the
[12:45]
state works from 1 July to 32 the Fed
works from 1
[12:50]
October until 30 September so if they
appropriate Congress right now is it
[12:56]
going to come in 2425 year the 25 26
year because we were give them a grant
[13:03]
that's being worked at at brav and we
would told you got a grant but it was
[13:07]
for the next cycle any tell us that so
there's some kind of hat tricks for some
[13:14]
of those people sometimes you're going
to get it but have to be patient item
[13:19]
seven Road Clos for Super Saturday March
15
[13:25]
2025 can you tell us which
the police
[13:31]
chief comment
on how do you feel about that road
[13:36]
closure if they got proper in place like
someone help support like law
[13:42]
enforcement or something of that
sort I mean we've assisted with it in
[13:47]
the
[13:50]
past and you talk about M Roose yes okay
yes I've been here a whole long time
[13:59]
we've always done that that's that's
what we were it's it's something that's
[14:03]
this is the 47th year for Super Saturday
something that you know by the way we
[14:08]
have to get this approved because that's
one of the roads paved by the state and
[14:11]
technically it's in our town but the
state owns it and paves it yes she had
[14:16]
said that we have to get approval from
you but then it's by then so okay she on
[14:22]
a motion day is 15 March from
until
[14:27]
um oh
8 until 3:0
[14:34]
okay okay all
favos likewise motion
[14:39]
carries item
seven Bo
[14:46]
board um stepen is applied to be on that
board I think they have I was told they
[14:52]
have one other opening and it can be
anybody that's
[15:00]
ra your
app works with us in fire department I
[15:06]
can for don't do that
[15:13]
sir CH a
[15:19]
motion
[15:22]
inse thank you welcome board sir thank
you
[15:27]
sir item nine
the town board approved recommendations
[15:32]
to establish additional committees that
we done away with over the years I think
[15:37]
the Public Works utilities committee and
finance committee Dior are going to be
[15:41]
two committees that offer great Insight
recommendations to the town board
[15:48]
and mayor I think years ago we had
citizens on the Public Works committee
[15:55]
we and so I just want to get feedback
from the council members
[15:59]
um I guess the two minut I want to hear
feedback on is the Public Works
[16:04]
committee um you think citizens would be
helpful to a your committee as well as a
[16:09]
finance HR committee so I guess skip
your chairman of the yeah I've reached
[16:15]
out to several citizens already with the
would you be interested in and I've had
[16:20]
some really good feedback people want to
know what's going on in the town want to
[16:25]
offer Insight from a citizen standpoint
so
[16:29]
and I reached out to several residents
in the east side Dr Fox and Dr Carson
[16:36]
are going to recommend some names for me
and I've got one commitment from Dave
[16:42]
Lan some of you might
know really sharp guy so a little crazy
[16:48]
but really sharp and he said he Lov it
[16:53]
[Music]
so so on the finance committee
[17:00]
your so not reached out to anyone but I
think that
[17:06]
it's I think we need CI it helps bring
um confidence in the absolutely in the
[17:13]
town if you get others looking at the
finances and so forth so I'm I I'm
[17:20]
supportive of it I'm very supportive of
it so I think uh I think we should do
[17:26]
that we just need to figure out how many
and then go and sort of look at who
[17:34]
would be interested in
doing I'd like to add when you were here
[17:39]
before you came up with an idea of
having a dinner with all committees and
[17:44]
volunteers of town to honor them we did
we bought food everybody got together
[17:48]
and they talked and you had me stand up
I think I spoke 35 seconds or something
[17:54]
like that and come to hear me and we
want to hear what they had to say and I
[17:57]
would like to at Le consider being
stating that next year about this time
[18:02]
assuming we can go to our place and cook
out
[18:05]
there if I remember correctly I cook the
stakes I think I cook the stakes when we
[18:10]
everybody a small steak well I guess we
could nominate people Steve to
[18:22]
be well I'm saying I guess probably at
least two citizens would be appropriate
[18:27]
I think we can always add later but I
think um I guess I may a motion on a
[18:34]
council standpoint that you'd like to
have up to two citizens be added to the
[18:40]
public works and the finance committees
I would I would say three that odd
[18:46]
number alwayss well you're on the
committee too I know but that's one two
[18:51]
three
four third would
[18:57]
be oh but non voting typically or would
they be non voting the alternate I think
[19:02]
the I only recommend alternate because
in the
[19:07]
past it's been difficult to get council
members to attend some of the functions
[19:13]
in Bard where I work before we had two
members from the council attend all the
[19:17]
committee meetings um here maybe do a
compromise an alternate but I encourage
[19:24]
the alternate to attend that up to speed
on what's going on as well
[19:29]
so maybe up to three citizens per
committee I would say that okay and one
[19:34]
and one counil whether primary Al only
one
[19:42]
voting okay one of the things I thought
because last week you'd asked I come to
[19:47]
the parts
committee time conflict well I had
[19:52]
planned to but we had practice at school
and I had a child didn't have a ride and
[19:57]
I just I couldn't walk by the time I got
here was done but no I agree second
[20:03]
three need a motion
[20:10]
motion
[20:20]
car
[20:24]
upate which one of you going do this
tonight I'm going to do it today try on
[20:29]
midnight was well attended we wanted to
thank Andy Mard for providing music
[20:32]
throughout the evening Dean trus for
doing a wonderful job with the ball I
[20:36]
don't know if any of you came to the
ball drop and Kevin sprouls for the back
[20:39]
pipe accompaniment um we hosted a grand
opening at the Trion Rejuvenation
[20:44]
Station over at 112 North Trade Street
thank you for attending um we hosted in
[20:49]
conjunction with the Carolina Foothills
Chamber Something That We're trying to
[20:52]
do is work a little more cohesively with
the chamber so that we can bring the
[20:57]
biggest benefit to all of our business
business down here um thank you to skip
[21:01]
Tracy and Julie for assisting us with
their uh tdda will be hosting a grand
[21:05]
reopening for the nest they're
remarketing their business um and
[21:09]
switching over from an artisan Market to
a corner market um Tim and I got a
[21:14]
little sneak peek and so we were able
they she's trying to do a lot of local
[21:18]
um cooking condiments oils teas spices
it's going to be really cool once it's
[21:23]
done she'll still have some Artisan
things in the back um and her her plan
[21:28]
in a couple of months is hopefully to
have a cooler with local meats and
[21:31]
cheeses she's been talking to Looking
Glass and so I think that'll be a good
[21:36]
asset for us to have here in town um and
then uh tra uh TDA is requesting a
[21:41]
street closure for March 29th from 12:
to 2 for April Fools Day on Trade Street
[21:45]

for coverage already as well um and this
[21:49]

races and trash and show all on trade
[21:54]
stre okay a motion to approve close the

so if anyone wants to cook Jil let me
[22:26]
know um otherwise hopefully all come up
to sample um it was a big hit last year
[22:31]
I think people were ready to get out
right seemingly a little bit nicer but
[22:35]
still chilly but people didn't care and
we were bombarded last year um and then
[22:40]
off of the tdda side and more onto the
town side I handed each of you an
[22:44]
application uh for permission to use the
logo uh in an effort to try to
[22:49]
streamline these things and I have
people ask for permission to use the
[22:52]
moris image um a citizen has requested
usage of that logo she's said over at
[22:59]
the trian antique shop um and in the
logo act that we found we had to ask
[23:04]
permission from Council in order to
approve
[23:09]
that yeah I mean I buy her stickers all
the time
[23:13]
sorry Keeper in business I have the
original so after the meeting I can have
[23:18]
one of you sign it if it's okay with
you is loo copyrighted or trademark kind
[23:24]
of bar it is by the time yeah it's non
enfor
[23:33]
state had it and we got it back from the
state but if you go online you will find
[23:40]
that toy horse that backs all the way up
to like
[23:44]
1650 in Germany and all over the world
people been making the toy wood the
[23:49]
looks just
like they one spot here
[23:55]
there that's what we did to get it
originally in
[24:00]
1885 we B it from somebody yeah because
it first came out in 28 had green wheels
[24:05]
on
it and people will tell you that it had
[24:11]
never had been copyrighted before to the
1980s when that lady said she got up to
[24:18]
the state I have a set of glasses
cerated in 1979 that's moris I may have
[24:24]
the on left but moris was copyrighted in
1979
[24:28]
there was a barware and jewelry
copyright but that was all it was
[24:35]
not Pap I think the copyright when I
looked at it it's it's the likeness
[24:41]
right it it's very specific about what
it is do you know off hand
[24:46]
or okay yeah are we charging for this or
we just that would be up to
[24:53]
you we charge a nominal fee and that
money go back to tvba or something
[24:59]
spend yeah I mean there's no fee
attached to to the current application
[25:03]
as it is but I also know that this is
sort of a new process
[25:07]
so it would be completely up to yeah
this is the first time we've been asked
[25:12]
I
[25:14]
know I like that idea maybe not for the
likeness but for every unit they sell is
[25:22]
italty yes is is it royalty based on
sold and they simply report self report
[25:28]
every year you know yeah I don't have a
problem either way with that but if we
[25:33]
own it we should capitalize that's
right because any money we get obviously
[25:39]
goes back to this
T okay you can say okay we're going to
[25:44]
do this and it'll be a flower fund or
it'll be a parade fund whatever you
[25:50]
choose so do you all want to set in a
mount
[25:56]
or I would make it a FL $50 or $25
annual fee or lifetime fee for 100 I
[26:04]
don't
know I did I
[26:08]
me I look at it that Morris has been out
there in the world for everybody to use
[26:13]
for as long as I've been
around enforcing it is going to be
[26:18]
almost
impossible um so keep it simple you know
[26:24]
she filled out the app charge her 25
bucks say thank you
[26:29]
next that the next question is going to
be because you got plas you got glass
[26:34]
you got cloth you
got is that for anything you want to do
[26:38]
and one of the reasons I like this is
because you don't have 15 people doing
[26:43]
the same thing and then there five other
things that nobody
[26:46]
does it can be registered as a design
Mark opposed to a use Mark as a
[26:52]
representative kind of try and appliable
across the board across different
[26:56]
trademarks for whatever you don't have
have to lay it out in the actual
[27:00]
trademark application form um I have I
have several trademarks and I I have one
[27:08]
two I
[27:13]
think with him see what he has make a
recommendation I don't have a problem if
[27:19]
if Jim do that when yall deci side on
yeah okay we can bring it to Jim okay
[27:26]
that would be fine yeah and on the chili
how we doing judging this time well I'm
[27:31]
glad you
asked we actually need a
[27:36]
judge any of you we as one person who's
a
[27:49]

[29:59]

[Music]
[30:01]
you couple things we recently held our
first L gr committee meeting um this is
[30:08]
a citizen group The Town board to start
doing the brainstorming of what we need
[30:14]
to do to get ready for the C great Trail
when it comes in and so we had our first
[30:19]
meeting and we gave an assignment out to
the committee memb to come back with
[30:23]
many items they can think we should be
addressing like public rest B racks
[30:28]
whatever um then I just want to update
to as you know the town board is part of
[30:34]
the lawsuit that you may have read in
the paper or saw on local television
[30:40]
stations um I got interviewed by WSPA
Channel 7
[30:45]
recently uh why is the town involved as
you know I came to the town and
[30:51]
recommend to get involved because you're
suing the federal government yes but
[30:57]
it's the Federal govern has got a
program that they will compensate the
[31:02]
property owners along the
trail based on appraisals and so the law
[31:07]
firm that
retained um is doing all the appraisals
[31:11]
all the expense of that and the town
owns four Parcels with a tax value
[31:17]
amount of a million dollar I'm not sure
how much money we'll get back from that
[31:22]
but my thought is if it's 100,000
200,000 whatever that um my
[31:28]
recommendation that we take that money
and reinvest it in these improvements
[31:33]
that we probably need for the trail but
we we can talk about it later on but
[31:37]
that's why you know we're party to it we
could choose not to be a party to it at
[31:41]
all but he wouldn't get any money so I
did share this with the um city of
[31:48]
indland South Carolina I think they've
done the same thing they decided to join
[31:51]
in because they own a lot of acreage
along the track
[31:58]
then the other thing is the audit report
was supposed to be here tonight and it's
[32:03]
not the audit firm's problem they've
been waiting for our CPA firm to put the
[32:08]
financial statements together and
they've had some stamp illnesses and
[32:13]
they helped have done in a couple weeks
so my feedback want to get back from
[32:17]
this group here is I recommend that
mayor that we call a special meeting
[32:23]
between now and the next meeting if it
comes back
[32:26]
sooner but I think that
especially with three new members in the
[32:30]
council we had a very good presentation
last year by the audit firm and it would
[32:36]
take about 45 minutes to an hour and I
think it would be well
[32:41]
worth the for that discussion this may
be prettiest one we've had in
[32:48]
years has
incl but is that I guess once I get the
[32:55]
the statements recommended me I'll get a
you have
[33:04]
Works May Tracy then Julie then bill
then
[33:13]
skip I don't really have anything except
Susan thank you for your many years of
[33:18]
service and had fun with the
[33:30]
um I just want to uh thank everyone for
coming out tonight it's a really cold
[33:34]
night so thank you for making that
effort is there

surprise so I'm
[33:45]
glad um and I want to thank uh Public
Works they did a great job when we had
[33:50]
the snowstorm a couple weeks ago on the
roads still clearing debr from people's

[34:00]
[Music]

[34:06]
starting to to enforce the sidewalk
coordinat all righty and we were going
[34:13]
to have a professional parking study

[34:21]
we just recently got the survey they uh
constructed I will be sending I can send
[34:25]
that out to you next week for next
couple days I should say um we're going
[34:29]
to
probably like we did with the
[34:32]
comprehensive plan I'll probably make a
website that says TR on parking
[34:36]
study.com and people can go online and
take it there just to try to get and
[34:39]
we'll we'll hand them out um I see what
the date range is we'll hand them out as
[34:43]
best we can um are they doing a
[Music]
[34:49]
map it's just survey questions at this
point they are going to talk so the
[34:55]
survey has not been done they had walked
and said you well we did initially um
[35:02]
they the Regional Commission came out we
had a bunch of people we walked around
[35:06]
kind of initial eyes on situation then
they're going to do the survey and then
[35:11]
the more it progresses they'll I'm sure
they'll have a map with opportunities
[35:16]
there it's still
going and thank you for all your years
[35:22]
we
appreciate staff for being here uh walk
[35:28]
Woodland Park the other day it's the
next one
[35:31]
sh so yeah your whoever stay in care of
wood doing it's your Parks
[35:38]
committee I've attended the parks
committee that committee surprised me
[35:43]
because it's they have six members on
maybe seven now they're actually a
[35:49]
working committee they go out there in
the weekend and do work details and they
[35:55]
they work close I gave them Greg m
cell phone
[36:02]
number so there's there's a much
cooperation between the the city and the
[36:08]
parks committee and I try attend all
their meetings I can and so they were
[36:13]
they very appreciative of what the town
has been doing and but they do a lot of
[36:19]
work Greenway is all a lot of Labor they
donated so it's a wonderful committee
[36:26]
and great Miner's the new chairman John
Bonnie stepped down recently and then
[36:32]
Greg Miner's also your appointment to
field board so it's a good continuity
[36:38]
there and then I want to thank Brad
Gordon Brad's been attending the parks
[36:41]
committee meeting so there's they're
really very happy with the support
[36:47]
they're getting from the town
now another one quick question you know
[36:52]
the sewer line that came down from like
near La thear
[36:58]
down to Woodland Park do we own a strip
of that land or is that just a sewer
[37:04]
line
[37:08]
easement
[37:13]
property well the reason I'm asking is
we walk it now I mean it's getting a
[37:19]
good trail the bear and deer I've really
got a good trail going stay on it have
[37:26]
taken U St allow trails to go through
and with vond Creek for example years
[37:35]
ago we had the sewer went through there
then you have a sewer system overflow
[37:42]
now with it with the with the um Trail
down through there it say a sewer leak
[37:48]
there we're getting a quick response
from that walk that trail now which in
[37:53]
the old days we would never known about
yeah so that helps us okay and that
[37:59]
trail down through there it start at
Woodland Park the people who bought
[38:05]
hidden
house and my neighbor and I if all said
[38:10]
the town would have EAS to ride away
once to get walk through be great we
[38:15]
sneak got through that's we just need to
get it all the way back up Mose Avenue
[38:20]
that's the last group that's there says
