Council approves recreation interlocal agreement with neighboring cities and permits June 21 road closure for event
Summary
Mount Pleasant approved an interlocal agreement with Fairview and Spring City to jointly support youth recreation programs (partner cities to contribute $5,000 annually) and approved a road closure request for a June 21 community event on Fifth West between Main Street and Second South.
The Mount Pleasant City Council approved an interlocal recreation agreement with Spring City and Fairview to share development and management of youth recreation programs and authorized a street closure for a private event on June 21.
Under the agreement, the other cities will contribute $5,000 annually to a shared registration and program fund; the council noted counties and towns outside the agreement would be charged an additional $10 per sport registration to offset program costs. The agreement is intended to spread operating costs for youth sports and create a unified online registration system for participating jurisdictions.
Separately, the council voted to close the city street from Main Street to Second South on Fifth West on June 21 for a planned community event (presenter described it as involving food trucks and street activities). The event organizer will be required to notify neighbors and obtain the necessary permits; the council asked staff to confirm public-safety details such as neighbor notification and timing. The applicant had not supplied exact event hours when the council approved the closure; one councilor said the organizer had mentioned “noon to 9,” but council did not condition the approval on a specific schedule.
Both items were approved by motions and roll-call votes during the meeting.
