Summary

Department heads reported operational updates including sidewalk repairs on Hammonds Ferry, decorative crosswalk installation at West Avenue and Pine Grove (temporary closure expected), Veterans Day sanitation schedule changes, Riverview Park disc‑golf reopening, and upcoming community events.

At the Nov. 10 study session, department heads gave routine operational updates for North Augusta.

Public Works Director Tom Caesar said crews repaired sidewalks at Hammonds Ferry and will install decorative crosswalks at West Avenue and Pine Grove; the contractor will announce the exact work date and the intersection will be closed on that day. Public Services Director James Sutton said city offices will be closed for Veterans Day, with residential sanitation routes shifted (Tuesday collections moved to Wednesday; Wednesday collections moved to Thursday). Parks & Recreation Director Rick Meyer noted the Riverview Park Disc Golf Course reopened and previewed upcoming youth basketball registration and a gridiron bowl event at North Augusta High School. Tourism Manager Carl Waldhauer provided attendance estimates for Jubilee (about 36,000 visitors, ~2,300 from 50+ miles away) and promoted a community Christmas tree lighting on Dec. 2.

Council members asked follow‑up questions about decorations, lighting and vendor responsibilities; staff said Hurricane impacts had reduced some previous decorations but that work is underway to restore features this season.
