PROCLAMATIONS:
RECOGNITION OF RETIRED PARKS & RECREATION DIRECTOR HARRY
BROWN, WHO RETIRED MAY 1 AFTER 30 YEARS OF SERVICE.
Mayor Festerman then called retired Parks & Recreation Director Harry Brown and his
wife forward. He read aloud the proclamation for Brown’s retirement. (A COPY OF THE
CERTIFICATE OF APPRECIATION IS HEREIN INCORPORATED AND MADE A
PART OF THESE MINUTES.)
The Mayor, noting that he remembers Harry as a “young guy,” talked of Brown’s
dedication not only to youth but also to the senior population of the City and those at the
Senior Center. Like the proclamation says, it has been “more than a job” to Harry, he
noted. The Mayor discussed Brown’s leadership abilities, which helped develop those
working for him so that the City was able to promote from within.
City Manager Almond described Brown as a good friend and a good co-worker. He said
it has often been asked in different situations recently, “What would Harry do?” The City
Manager said Dale Hagwood is doing a good job as Brown’s replacement but he credited
Brown with preparing Dale for the job.
5 June 9, 2010
Mayor Festerman then presented Brown with his 30-year watch. Brown’s wife, Gail, said
she and Fancy (their dog) liked having Harry full time, but she talked of his great love for
the City. The Mayor said they appreciated her sharing Harry with them these many years.
After shaking hands with the Council members present, Brown thanked the City Council,
the Mayor and the City Manager for the support they have given him. He also thanked his
co-workers and department heads for their support, saying he has developed lifelong
friendships here.
PUBLIC HEARINGS:
CONSIDERATION OF A ZONING ORDINANCE TEXT AMENDMENT TO
AMEND ARTICLE X, BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT, SECTION 6, VOTING OF
THE CITY OF REIDSVILLE ZONING ORDINANCE, WHICH WOULD
LESSEN THE QUORUM REQUIREMENTS TO A MAJORITY OF THE TOTAL
MEMBERS OF THE BOARD. (T2010-4A)
In making the staff report, Community Development Director Michael Pearce noted this
was a pretty simple matter. A couple of months ago, the Council approved reducing the
number of Planning Board/Board of Adjustment members from 10 to seven. This is the
last step in that process, amending the Zoning Ordinance to lessen the quorum
requirements to a simple majority of the total members of the board.
Mayor Festerman opened the public hearing at 3:10 p.m. by asking if there was anyone
who wished to speak in favor of this change? No one came forward. He asked if there
was anyone who wished to speak in opposition? Again, no one came forward. The public
hearing was closed at 3:10 p.m.
Councilman Turner made the motion, seconded by Councilwoman Zdanski and
unanimously approved by Council in a 4-0 vote, to approve the text amendment.

PUBLIC COMMENTS.
Invitation to Cutting Board Restaurant ribbon cutting.
Beth Simmons, President of the Reidsville Chamber of Commerce, said Council should
have received an invitation to the ribbon cutting for The Cutting Board set for 5:30 p.m.
Monday, June 28. She noted the restaurant would be open for lunch only during its first
week of operation, then dinner would be added after that. She said the restaurant was
pleased with the potential of the area and very impressed with the labor pool. In response
to question from Mayor Festerman, she said hours would be from 11 a.m. to 9 or 10 p.m.
seven days a week. Simmons also noted that the Chamber will hold its annual ice cream
social on July 8th with the band, Cold Shot, performing on the grounds of the Penn
House, from 5:30-7 p.m.
CITY MANAGER’S REPORT.
Gators at Lake Reidsville.
City Manager Almond reminded Council members of an email he had sent them
regarding the leasing of gator vehicles at Lake Reidsville. The lake had been leasing golf
carts but the contract had expired last April. Gators are more versatile than the golf carts,
he stated, and have a lower cost. The City Manager said that there is money in the lake’s
budget for these lease payments, but since there is a $1 purchase price at the end of the
lease, the agreement indebts the City regardless of how much it costs, even if it’s only $1,
and must be approved by Council. The budget ordinance amendment also deals with the
selling of Christmas ornaments by the Downtown Corporation and contributions to the
Police Department as outlined in Finance Director Phillips’ memo. (A COPY OF THE
FINANCE DIRECTOR’S MEMO DATED JUNE 8, 2010 IS HEREIN
INCORPORATED AND MADE A PART OF THESE MINUTES.)
7 June 9, 2010
Councilman Henderson made the motion, seconded by Councilwoman Zdanski, to
approve the leasing of the gators.
The corresponding Resolution and Budget Ordinance Amendment as approved:

final forms as the Finance Officer shall approve, with the Finance Officer’s

the Financing Documents as “qualified tax-exempt obligations” for the
purpose of Internal Revenue Code Section 265(b)(3).

of the City’s official intent to reimburse expenditures for the project that

Mayor Festerman noted that Councilman Johnson had said it might be better to purchase
the vehicles rather than lease them. He said he just wanted to make the Council aware of
Councilman Johnson’s observation.
The motion then passed in a 4-0 vote.
Summer Camp monies raised.
City Manager Almond noted that Dr. Bill Duke and associates have been able to raise
monies for the Summer Day Camp. The camp had been discontinued by the City, he
stated, as part of the prioritization of budget demands. Dr. Duke took this on as a project,
he said, and raised $10,200. The Reidsville Area Foundation agreed to match funds up to
$12,500, he said. It takes approximately $21,500 to operate the program for the summer,
the City Manager added.
City Manager Almond said today he needed Council’s approval to staff the program and
spend the money raised.
10 June 9, 2010
Councilman Turner made the motion, seconded by Councilman Henderson, to
approve and staff the Summer Day Camp program.
Mayor Festerman complimented Dr. Duke taking on such an enormous task and getting it
done.
The motion then passed in a 4-0 vote.
Morehead Street Parking Lot Improvements.
City Manager Almond noted that the improvements to the parking lot on Morehead Street
had been funded about two years ago. However, since that time, the project has grown
larger since the City first purchased the old Food Deals building and the area beside it.
The City Manager said he needs $30,000 to finish out the project, including the
improvements to the area beside the Food Deals building.
Councilwoman Zdanski made the motion to approve the request for $30,000 to do
the additional improvements. The motion was seconded by Councilman Turner and
unanimously approved by Council in a 4-0 vote.
