ICYMI: Parks & Recreation Ribbon Cuttings

Huntersville Parks and Recreation cut the ribbon on not one, but TWO new projects that were completed and opened to the public in July! The Lily Pad, Huntersville's new splash pad at North Mecklenburg Park, opened with a ribbon cutting on July 1. The Torrence Trib II Greenway, which includes a tunnel that runs under I-77, opened on July 15. If you missed the action, check out our Facebook page for photos and videos of the ribbon cuttings!

Decisions from the Dais

The Huntersville Town Board of Commissioners only met once during July, but took important action to honor a retiring Town employee's service to Huntersville. When the Town Board passed the consent agenda during the July 16 meeting, they approved awarding Lt. Andrew Dempski his service firearm upon his retirement. This is in accordance with with North Carolina General Statute §17F-20, which allows a retiring member of law enforcement to keep their badge and firearm. Lt. Dempski served the Town of Huntersville for 27 years. The Town Board thanks him for his service.

Decisions from the Dais is a section of our newsletter dedicated to highlighting recent decisions made by the Town Board.
