Brown Mayor Pro Tem Council Members David Ammann Wade Wittman Dick Casey THE VILLAGE OF SUGAR MOUNTAIN 251 Dick Trundy Lane Sugar Mountain, NC 28604 July12,2024 The first round of paving has been completed on the mountain, and the paving crew will be returning before the end of the month to complete several more roads. Upper Shelter Rock Circle will be completely paved from Grouse Moor to Skyleaf. Elk Horn Lane will also be paved oni its entire length. Patching will be done on Highland Circle, Glenwood, Rough Ridge and Craggy Point. Work will also be happening on various areas on Sugar Mountain Drive and Grouse Moor. We hope this all gets finished before fall and we willl be able to re-apply new yellow and white lines to the streets. Roadside mowing continues, with all the streets having been finished for the first loop. We have applied a growth regulator to most road shoulders to assist us with keeping up with the mowing. The Public Works department has received a new pickup truck that was included in the current fiscal year budget. We willl be placing our 2011 pickup onto GovDeals to sell. The golf course continues to bei in great condition this season. lam extremely proud and humbled at the fact we have been named as the number 6 short course in the United States for 2024! We first appeared on this list compiled by GolfNow in 2019 at the number 2 short course. This rating is based solely on customer reviews and not by some committee that pays us a visit. After a 5-year period, we received enough positive reviews to make the top ten again. This accolade only fuels our crew to continue to provide the best conditions possible for our guests and customers. The conditions that are found here are second to none and rival any course in the area in my mind. la am SO very honored to see this happen again and couldn't be more proud of our men that take great pride in what they do. Ithank the council and our manager for providing us a wonderful place to work! Respectfully submitted, Bill Daniels, Village Maintenance Director
