🌱Mooresville Keeping Roads Safe + Readers Discuss Mowing Etiquette

Good morning, Mooresville! It's Monday, so let's get you started with everything you need to know going on today in Mooresville.

First, today's weather:

A heavy t-storm in the p.m.. High: 83 Low: 54.

Here are the top three stories today in Mooresville:

1. In an effort to keep the town-owned streets in good working order, Mooresville will be adding new paving preservation processes: micro-surfacing and asphalt rejuvenation. These new processes, in conjunction with milling and resurfacing, will allow the town to treat more than 20 miles of roads a year versus an average of seven miles each year. (Town of Mooresville)
   
2. In the market for a new home? Here's a sampling of the latest batch of new houses to go up for sale in and near Mooresville. (Mooresville Patch)
3. The subtle etiquette of lawn mowing was the subject of a Patch survey. Readers responded about the dos and don'ts of mowing your lawn in suburban America. What time is too early? What time is too late and are weekends off-limits? Read what readers said. (Patch)
