RAM July 11, 2022 The meeting was called to order at 7:00 pm at the Mooresville Public Library. In attendance, the board members were Lynn Adams, Danny Shaw, Erin Bechtold, Matt Saner, Mark Taylor, and David Pearson. Supt. Kris Wilson (via telephone), Asst. Supt. Keelan Simpson and Office Mgr. Stacy Freeman. Absent, Brian Wiser. Guests include Greg Swinney. Minutes of June 13, 2022, approved as presented. Motion made by David Pearson, seconded by Matt Saner. Motion carried. The meeting started with a discussion of the covered bridge. The covered bridge was reconstructed on July 5 and opened to the public. Our maintenance staff will need one day to spray the exposed OSB. There was a change order because the list of materials from the insurance adjuster was short for 12 sheets of roof decking and more shingles, and the carpenters had upgraded some of the fascia boards and fly rafters. Even with the change order, we still came in at a total just under what insurance paid. Sunco has asked if they could put a sign on the covered bridge with their company name and the date it was reconstructed. Park Board discussed. Motion to approve the Sunco Reconstructed sign to hang on the bridge, Motion made by David Pearson, seconded by Danny Shaw. Motion carried. Supt. Wilson updated the Board on the Mooresville Downtown Street Fair. The Park did not receive a revised Special Event form as requested for the July 8 Street Fair. During the July 8 Street Fair, Bicentennial Park was used for a beer garden without approval. Mooresville Park or the Town of Mooresville did not receive an excise license for the beer garden used in the Bicentennial Park. The event contact, Kim from Farmhouse Market, did not show up to Park Board to discuss the issues. Park Board discussed the issues. Park Board is requesting a new application for the September Street Fair, including a Certificate of Insurance. The application is needed at least eight weeks before the September Street Fair. Board Member Saner asked to make a documented policy for failure to comply. Board President Bechtold asked not to waive the Special Events Fee. Supt. Wilson will go to the Town Council meeting and inform them of the issues. The Office Renovation update windows are scheduled to be installed the week of July 18. New chairs have arrived for the office, and we need to look at purchasing visitor chairs for the meeting area.
