What's on this agenda

Morrisville's town council opens a work session on amenities for the Town Green. Deputy Town Manager Brandon Zuidema presents alongside Avi Grewal of Singh Development LLC and architect Fred Bellerin of Clearscapes. Nothing is up for a vote.

Council members use their monthly roundtable to raise four ideas. They cover a staff appreciation event, a community 5K, and formal design work for a disc golf course at Church Street Park. A fourth idea proposes a shuttle for seniors at Luther Green Center and nearby retirement communities. Staff update the council on relocating a Gandhi statue from Raleigh's Marbles Museum. Moving it is estimated at $4,300, with $5,000 to $10,000 more for a new concrete base, and roughly $5,000 for landscaping and lighting. Church Street Park is named as the likeliest site. The meeting closes with a closed session on personnel matters under state law.
