Rising Sun updates fiscal policy and hears staff reports on parking, paving and church rehab
Summary
The board approved Resolution 2022‑19 updating fiscal policy to reflect staffing and software changes; staff also reported plans for a 2‑hour parking limit on Cherry Street, temporary paving on Pearl Street, and initial stabilization work for the newly purchased church at 19 East Main Street.
The Mayor and Commissioners approved Resolution 2022‑19 to update the town’s fiscal policy manual. Town staff said the update replaces references to an outside 'accountant' with 'treasurer' to reflect in‑house staff changes and references the town’s government accounting software (MIP) to reflect internal integrity and checks‑and‑balances.
During staff reports, the Town Administrator outlined a proposed two‑hour parking limit on Cherry Street to address congestion and safety concerns; staff said they will prepare draft legislative language for the board’s next meeting. Engineers are preparing pricing for temporary paving on Pearl Street before winter, and the town continues stabilization and remediation planning for the recently purchased 19 East Main Street (roof work, basement gutting, and a water line to support a fire sprinkler system).
The town attorney said he prepared and provided a memo with research and options on the 16 East Main Street project for future consideration. The police chief was at a conference and had no report.
The motion to adopt Resolution 2022‑19 passed by voice vote; the transcript records 'Aye' but does not show roll-call totals.
