BISCOE – During their regular September Board meeting, Biscoe commissioners approved a request by April and Danny Helton for a game room license at 325 East Main Street. The address is the location of the former Biz-Net Sweepstakes business that closed last month.
The Heltons lease and operated the Eldorado Country Store on NC Highway 109, north of Troy, and operate a café there. Mr. Helton also holds a valid ABC Permit for alcohol sales at the Eldorado location.
In other business, Mayor Mike Criscoe and Commissioners Gene Anderson, John Beard, Jimmy Blake, Jimmy Cagle and Jerry Smith:
• Recognized Christina Marceleno, a student at East Montgomery High School, for volunteering 1,000 hours to the community during the past year.
• Tabled a public hearing for an updated noise ordinance. The hearing on the ordinance was rescheduled for the October meeting.
• Considered the planting of trees to buffer the softball field at Deaton-Monroe Park from residences located on Craven Street. The buffer is meant to prevent balls from landing on the properties of those residences. A bid for the installation had been received for approximately $8692.00 from Greenthumb Nursery. No action was taken due to the lack of a motion.
