At their November 2nd meeting, the Leesburg Town Council approved the purchase of a new ice machine for the fire department. Mayor Brandy Pierce stated that buying a new one was more cost-effective than replacing the compressor in the 2018 model. The council approved $1,400.99 for the purchase and for the extended warranty.

In other business, the council…
-approved entering into a lease with KTH for the use of the medical clinic inside the town hall building.
-increased the Christmas light budget by $2,500, covering lights for the park and outside local businesses.
-voted to void their contract with the Gaston Youth Softball League.
-approved the minutes, paid the bills, and set their 2027 meeting dates.

Pierce announced that a sewer grant replaced $66,000 that the town had already spent. He also stated that Christmas in the Park will be Saturday December 5th from 2:00 – 6:00 pm.
