Town reports: IT replacement needs, successful fireworks and National Night Out planned for Aug. 5; wastewater manager marks 30 years
Summary
Town staff reported plans for new laptops, potential $18,000 desktop replacements for dispatch, thanked fire and parks for a successful fireworks show, announced the town's first National Night Out on Aug. 5, and recognized wastewater manager Calvin Boltri's 30 years of service.
Town department heads reported an incoming laptop purchase, potential desktop replacements for dispatch, a successful fireworks display, plans for the town's first National Night Out on Aug. 5 and recognition of a long‑serving wastewater manager during the July 15 Mooresville Town Council meeting.
A department head said extra funding had been allocated for laptops and that the town has placed orders for those devices. The same staff member said a separate set of desktop computers needs replacement and estimated the cost at about $18,000, noting that “most of those are in dispatch.” The presenter said IT support recommended the replacements.
Council members and staff also thanked the parks and fire departments for the recent fireworks show. “Did a fantastic show,” a councilmember said, and the meeting record noted there were no injuries and no missing children reported.
The town announced its first National Night Out on Aug. 5; Officer Ballard is coordinating the event and has secured donations and planned family activities, including a bounce house and giveaways, the staff report said.
Finally, the council acknowledged Calvin Boltri’s 30 years as wastewater treatment manager, which council members noted during comments.
None of the department items on the record included formal motions beyond informational reports; the $18,000 desktop estimate was presented as a future spending consideration rather than as an approved expenditure.
