AGENDA ITEM #4
CAPITAL PROJECTS UPDATE
SCIF Grants
Downtown Facilities
Stewart, Inc. completed the construction drawings for Downtown and reduced scope for Phase I.
The Town has entered into a contract with Duke Energy including a non-refundable deposit of
$90K. Duke has submitted their final
design for underground utilities. A new
easement for the underground utilities will
have to be acquired to move forward with
construction. There are approximately
thirty different property owners. Duke is
currently acquiring easements for the
project and has provided an estimate of
approximately a year to acquire all
necessary easements. Staff is hopeful the
easement process will be complete
Summer of 2027. Pike did relocate some
of the design to the right of way to reduce
the number of easements that are required
for the project. Duke has requested that the
Town provide additional survey work for
twenty-three parcels. Staff received a
quote from Benton Dewar & Associates in
the amount of $29,000. This work is vital
to the completion of Duke Energy’s final
construction plans and easement
acquisition.
Staff received a conduit plan from Duke
Energy/Pike for the streetscape lighting.
Staff will now begin meeting with Duke
monthly to coordinate all efforts.
Staff met with Bond Attorney Bob Jessup, along with Davenport to discuss financial positioning
and next steps to establish the Municipal Service District for Downtown.
Stormwater Resiliency Funds
Staff were notified that the State allocated $3.5 million for Stormwater infrastructure
improvements and stream restoration, to provide more efficient stormwater management and
flood resiliency. Project components will include stormwater management, replacing undersized
culverts, and stabilizing streambanks to improve flood resiliency.
Projects:
1. Downtown Stormwater Improvements
• Final construction design is pending site negotiations.
• Staff received the final wetland delineation, and it will be incorporated in the
survey map
• The appraisal has been updated to identify the land to be acquired.
• The condemnation letter at the beginning of September and following the thirty
day waiting period, the town will post the estimated compensation based on the
appraisal with the clerk of court
2. 13th Street Reservoir
• The bids were opened during a public bid opening February 26 at 11am
• The lowest responsible responsive bidder was FSC II, LLC dba Fred Smith
Company with a Base Bid of $1,136,475
• All required documents have been submitted to staff, we held a pre-construction
meeting April 17th and issued a Notice to Proceed June 5, 2026 and the project is
currently under construction.
Golden Leaf Application Stormwater
Harnett Street Project Description:
The proposed storm drainage
improvements would include removal and
replacement of existing storm drainage
pipe, ranging from 15” RCP to 30” RCP,
and removal and replacement of storm
drainage structures, including catch basins,
drop-inlets, storm drainage manholes, and
storm drainage headwalls. The proposed
storm drainage infrastructure will
effectively capture storm runoff, convey
stormwater efficiently inside public right-
of-way, and increase the level of service of
the storm drainage system. In addition,
private storm drainage infrastructure
would be relocated to the Town Right-of-
Way to allow for easier access for future
maintenance and inspections. The bids
came in $2,903,279 and a Notice of Award
was issued July 14, 2026.
Staff requested additional funds from
Golden Leaf and were notified by Golden
Leaf that the Board approved positive
deferral for the Town up to $950,000. The
max award from the program is $2 million
and the Town was already awarded
$1,050,000. Staff issued a Notice to
Proceed, and a pre-construction meeting
was held.
Staff visited the businesses on 8th Street to
notify property owners that construction
will begin soon and provided contact
numbers for town staff.
Fred Smith has provided the Town with a schedule of work and expect to see erosion control
measures in place late September. The project is scheduled to be completed at the end of
February.
Staff requested a twelve-month extension to complete final construction and all appliable grant
requirements, it was approved for a revised end date of December 31, 2026. Once we get into
construction and have a better timeline of completion staff will request a final extension to complete the project. Staff is requesting an approval of a temporary laydown yard agreement between the Town and
the Fred Smith Company, contingent on approval from the Town attorney.
ARPA S.L. 2022-74 Appropriated Projects
All documentation was submitted to the State to fund the Hwy 210 sewer line expansion and Southern Regional Sanitary Sewer/Poorhouse Creek installation of new sanitary sewer
interceptor and regional pump station. The total allocation was $9,250,000. Staff has received the
offer and acceptance letter from the Department of Water Infrastructure. a. South Regional/Poorhouse Creek All line work is completed and tested. The walls have been formed and poured. Pump
Station projected startup date is September 2026. The project competition will be in
October 2026. The contractor will soon make the connection to the WWTP.
S.L. 2023 Appropriated Funds
The Town was appropriated $11,062,500 through Session Law in 2023. Administrative cost for
the funds is $331,875.00. Available funds remaining are $10,730,625.
Additional Proposed projects with remaining funds:
1. Water Tank $4.5 million
• Weston & Sampson is the selected firm and we are working to locate and acquire
a site
• The land is currently under the acquisition process, and a check has been deposited at the Harnett County Clerk’s Office
• The consultant provided DWI with revised milestone dates with construction beginning February 2027
• The consultants have provided the Town with a schematic design
• The footprints for the site plans are based on coordination with Geotechnologies’ on the bore hole locations.
• The County did consent to allowing the Town to connect to their transmission line to supply the new tank
• Weston & Sampson is currently working towards 90% plans and staff will review them in the coming weeks 2. WWTP project $3.1 million
• Request for funding have been approved by DWI
• Project Ordinance has been approved
• Staff is currently working with HRW to complete disbursement request for the project.
North Harnett WWTP Capacity Upgrade
Harnett County has begun the process of submitting reimbursement requests to the Town for the
Town’s portion of the WWTP. Substantial completion October 2027.
SS4A Grant (Safe Streets and Roads for All)
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) established the Safe Streets and Roads for All
(SS4A) competitive grant program with $5 billion in appropriated funds over 5 years, 2022-
2026. The SS4A program funds regional, local, and Tribal initiatives through grants to prevent
roadway fatalities and serious injuries.
Staff applied for an implementation grant May 26th. Implementation Grants are used to
implement projects or strategies that are consistent with an existing Action Plan to address a
roadway safety problem. Eligible projects and strategies can be infrastructural, behavioral, and/or
operational activities. This grant is much like the LAPP grant, the town previously applied for,
that required a 20% match to fund the project. Staff submitted the 10th Street bypass project and
are hopeful that the Town will receive funding. This would include the 10th and Main Street
improvements.
Pedestrian Safety Call for Projects/TAP Funding
Staff submitted three projects to NCDOT for available funding for Pedestrian Projects. Two out
of the three projects are advancing to the next stage of the process to begin preliminary
engineering and design. The notification is not a project commitment, and the project statue may
change as engineering and design develops. We have spoken with NCDOT and they are hopeful
that these projects will come to fruition.
• Project one: US 401 S/S Main Street from E Killiegrey Street to James Street at the
signalized intersection.
Description - US 401 S/S Main Street from E Killiegrey Street to James Street at the
signalized intersection. The request is to replace the sidewalk and reduce the width to
improve both pedestrian and vehicle movement. The on-street parking doesn’t allow for
safe exiting from the vehicles. Reducing the width of the sidewalk allows for more space
to safety exit from vehicles and improving the current sidewalk. Along with these
improvements adding a signalized pedestrian movement at the intersection of E James
Street and US 401 S/S Main Street. There was a fatality at the intersection this year.
There are currently sidewalks that have been improved at this intersection, but no
pedestrian signals or pedestrian crosswalk markings for safer movement across Main
Street. In addition, adding traffic signals such a flashing beacons and signage to reduce
speed and pedestrian crossing ahead.
• Project two: S 13th Street to 711 W Front Street, along US 421 N
Description - Currently there are sidewalks on both sides of the intersection of 13th Street
and US 421 N/W Front Street. This is a signalized intersection that does not
accommodate pedestrian movement across US 421 N/W Front Street. Star Academy is
located on the south side of US 421 N/W Front Street and the Lillington Community
Center is on North side. When traffic is approaching the Town of Lillington flashing
beacons and signage need to be placed along US 421 N to reduce speed. Traffic must be
slowed down before approaching this signalized intersection. Currently, there is no
pedestrian movement to get from one side of the street to the other. The sidewalk also
ends at 13th Street, preventing safe pedestrian movement to the grocery store located a
short distance down US 421 N. There is a need for additional sidewalks and a crosswalk
at this intersection.
NC Main Street Conference
The conference will be in Morganton, March 9-11. This conflicts with the normally scheduled
Board meetings. Staff is requesting any interested Board members please let us know as soon as
possible so staff can plan accordingly for scheduling.
The theme for the 2027 NC Main Street Conference, Main Street: Designed for Connectivity,
explores this truth. It reflects a statewide and national movement toward creating downtown
districts that nurture human connection, strengthen economic ecosystems, and forge experiences
that keep people returning day after day. The accompanying tagline, Built for People, Powered
by Connection, reinforces the heart of this work: thriving downtowns exist because they are
centered on people, and people thrive when places are designed for connection.
This year’s conference invites attendees to explore the full spectrum of connectivity that fuels
successful downtowns. Through sessions focused on design, participants will discover how street
layouts, storefronts, public art, lighting, and placemaking can be intentionally shaped to guide
movement, spark curiosity, and encourage interaction. Economic vitality tracks will unpack how
business clustering, purposeful recruitment, upper-floor development, and aligned operating
hours work together to create a consistent, compelling marketplace. Promotion-focused sessions
will help communities design branding systems, visitor journeys, and campaigns that strengthen
the link between people and place. Organizational development topics will offer proven
approaches for volunteer engagement, block captain programs, data-driven decision-making, and
the internal alignment needed to manage a connected downtown effectively. Attendees will also
hear inspiring stories from across the state that demonstrate how connected downtowns grow
stronger, more resilient, and more economically vibrant over time.

DEPARTMENT: LP&R
SUBJECT: August 2026 - Monthly Departmental Report
Rentals & Programming
There were two rentals held at the Community Center in August. All Community Center programming has
moved back to the Community Center from Star Academy gym. Champions in Motion continues to hold
cheerleading classes each Monday night. They averaged around 31 students each night during August. Line
dance classes continue to go very well. Our Wednesday night line dance classes averaged 7 participants each
night and our Friday morning line dance class averaged 3 participants each morning. We will be starting a new
session of classes on Wednesday nights and Friday mornings beginning in September.
Gym Memberships
Our gym memberships continue to grow each month. In August we had 8 new people join our fitness center and
23 people renew their monthly membership. People who renew their memberships are people who have already
established membership and are just paying their monthly membership fee. We also had two new members join
with an annual membership in August.
Senior Programs:
The seniors have a senior Tai Chi class every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning at 9:30 a.m. followed
by senior exercise at 10 a.m. They also play corn hole on Mondays and Fridays after exercise and play Bingo on

We will also be partnering with Harnett County Parks and Recreation on Friday, October 16th, for a movie
night. This movie night is sponsored by Harnett County Parks and Recreation as well as Zaxby’s. We will be
showing the movie “Hoppers” beginning at 7 p.m. at the River Park.
Our 2026 farmer’s market began on Saturday, April 25th, and will run through September. The farmers’ market
is held each Saturday from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. We are still looking to add a few more vendors who sell fresh
produce, flowers, plants or handmade/homemade crafts. If you know of anyone who would be interested in
being a vendor at our farmer’s market, please have them contact Christy at (910) 893-0339 or
cpowers@lillingtonnc.org.
Athletics:
This past month, Lillington Parks & Recreation officially began our fall sports season, starting with Tackle
Football. Our 10U Tackle program reached our goal of 30+ players, while our 13U Tackle program nearly
doubled in participation compared to last year. There is a lot of excitement surrounding football this season, and we have a strong group of coaches who are ready to motivate, teach, and inspire our young athletes. We have also seen a noticeable increase in the overall talent and competitiveness of our players. With the continued growth of the program, we are looking forward to seeing significant progress from last season.
Soccer has experienced tremendous growth as well, with participation nearly doubling across our leagues. One of our biggest developments this fall was the addition of an 8U Girls Soccer league, allowing us to move away from having only a co-ed option at that age. We believe this will be very beneficial for the development of our young female athletes and will help us continue building a stronger girls soccer program for the future.
Our Parks and Recreation Department is experiencing significant growth in youth athletics. This fall, we have
nearly 800 children participating across all of our youth sports leagues, which is a tremendous
accomplishment for our department and a strong indication of the continued demand for recreational opportunities in our community.
To accommodate this growth, we are currently utilizing four different facilities to conduct practices and games throughout the week, with activities taking place Monday through Sunday. Despite utilizing multiple facilities
and maximizing available field space, the number of teams and participants is beginning to place limitations on
our scheduling capacity.
This is, in many ways, a good problem to have. The growth demonstrates that our programs are meeting the needs of local families and that there is a strong demand for youth sports. However, we also need to be proactive in planning for the continued growth of our programs.
One of our current limitations is the availability of lighting at the Multipurpose Field and Bradley Field.
Because these facilities do not have lights, their use is primarily limited to Saturdays and daylight hours. Installing lighting at these fields would significantly increase our scheduling flexibility and allow us to utilize the facilities during weekday evenings.

Looking ahead over the next 3–5 years, continued growth could create a need for additional recreational space. We will need to evaluate options such as:
• Adding additional ball fields and recreational facilities.
• Installing lights at existing fields that currently have limited evening availability.
• Making improvements to existing facilities to maximize their use.
• Developing a long-term facility plan based on projected participation growth.
• Evaluating scheduling and registration capacity to ensure we can continue serving local youth.
Our primary concern is that if participation continues to increase at the current rate without additional facility
capacity, we may eventually reach a point where we are unable to accommodate every child who wants to participate. This could require the department to place caps on registration or turn participants away due to a lack of available fields and practice space.
Our goal is to avoid reaching that point. By identifying facility needs now and planning for future
improvements, we can continue to provide quality recreational opportunities for our community while keeping
pace with the growth of our youth sports programs.
The growth we are experiencing is a success, but it also presents an opportunity to plan ahead. Investing in our facilities today will help ensure that our Parks and Recreation Department can continue serving the children and families of our community for years to come.

SUBJECT: August 2026 - Monthly Departmental Report
Summary of Monthly Activities:
Before and After School Care for the 2026-2027 school year began on Wednesday, August 12th. We have many returning kids registered for this year as well as several new kids registered for this year. We currently have close to 25 students enrolled in before & after school care. We are also utilizing the 15 passenger transit van again this year to pick up children from Buies Creek Elementary School. We have had a great first two weeks of school and can’t wait to see what the remainder of this upcoming school year brings! Pre-school for the 2026-2027 school year began on Monday, August 17th. We currently have 15 students enrolled in our pre-school program with several more on the wait list. We held pre-school open house on Tuesday, August 11th at 6:00 p.m. We were so excited to meet all of our kids and their families. We have several returning kids as well as several new kids enrolled. The kids have adjusted really well and are already learning so many new things. The kids will learn a letter, a color and a number a week. We can’t wait to watch these little ones learn and grow throughout the year. Be sure to look at our Facebook page each month for a photo dump of some of the exciting things the kids have done throughout the month.
