🌱Town's State Of Emergency For COVID-19 Is Over + Ride To Raise Money

Hello and happy Monday! I'm back in your inbox this morning to walk you through everything you need to know about what's happening in town these days. Let's do this.

First, today's weather:

A stray afternoon t-storm. High: 90 Low: 73.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Mooresville who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Mooresville Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top three stories in Mooresville today:

1. Mayor Miles Atkins signed a proclamation terminating the Town’s State of Emergency for COVID-19, to align with the proclamation Iredell County adopted the previous day ending the County’s State of Emergency. On July 22, the governor has ordered that the State of Emergency for the state of North Carolina will be terminated beginning August 15 at 12:01 a.m. This is monumental! (Mooresville NC)
