Town Manager David Pugh told the board a $4 million state grant for the Aquatics Center was approved, with $2 million available this year and $2 million next year; board members noted rezoning and upset-bid processes will apply and the project will return to the board for further actions.

The Town Manager reported on Aug. 19 that a $4 million state grant has been approved for a Cramerton Aquatics Center, with two annual disbursements of $2 million.

Commissioners asked about next procedural steps; Attorney Kevin Bringewatt Wolter said the project will be subject to an upset-bid process and that rezoning contingencies will return to the Board for formal consideration. Commissioner Abernathy asked whether the Aquatics Center project would come back before the Board; staff confirmed further actions—including rezoning and possible bid/contract approvals—will require future board consideration.

The town manager and commissioners discussed related timelines and local impacts, and staff said the town will provide updates to the Board as procurement and approval steps proceed.
