Lake Lure Town Council Meeting Packet
The agenda for the session included a work session and action meeting covering several important items. Key discussions focused on the possible uses for remaining American Rescue Plan (ARPA) funds, estimated at approximately $2 million, with potential allocations toward infrastructure work supporting the BFM Phase 1 project. The Council reviewed a proposal from Ridgeline for installing an inflatable Wibit Aqua Park at Lake Lure Beach. Significant time was dedicated to reviewing proposed organizational changes, which included establishing a unified Emergency Services Department, dissolving the Parks, Recreation, and Lake Department, and realigning roles within Public Services to separate operational oversight from capital project delivery. Further agenda items involved reviewing proposed amendments to the Personnel Policy regarding administrative office hours and travel reimbursement rates, accepting the Water System Asset Inventory and Assessment via Resolution No. 26-02-25, and considering amendments for LaBella tasks related to dredging permitting (Task 21 Amendment 1) and the design of a deep-water access boat ramp at Mallard Cove (Task 27 Amendment 1). Updates on Storm Recovery and other departmental matters were also scheduled.
