STREETSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS

Bids will be opened at 2:00 PM on Tuesday, May 13, 2008 for the streetscape improvements
on the 200 block of Northwest Center Street. Construction should be underway within 30 days
of bid opening and is expected to take approximately 90 to 120 days to complete. This project
will include improvements to landscaping, lighting, and traffic flow on that block.

DEPOT RENOVATIONS

The Town has been given permission to go to bid on the renovation project for the old train
depot. This project will involve restoration of the interior and exterior of the building as well as
the heating and air conditioning system. Once complete this will be a wonderful facility and a
great asset to the Town of Mount Olive.

WASTE WATER TREATMENT PLANT AND RECLAMATION FACILITY

We have brand new growth on thousands of sycamore trees which have been planted as part
of our new waste water reclamation facility. The treatment plant itself continues to delight our
plant operators. The Wayne County Utilities Commission and several County Commissioners
toured the plant recently and were very impressed with the new facility.

It seems that each passing day brings an increase in activity in and around Mount Olive as
new businesses begin construction or announce plans to locate here. Mount Olive College
continues to move forward with their master plan for their beautiful campus. We can never lose
sight of what a great asset the college is to Mount Olive. It is an exciting time for this area and
the feeling is that there are many more good things in store. The Town Board recently held a
joint meeting with the Town Council of the City of Goldsboro and there was a sense of
optimism about this entire area from everyone in the room. Stay in touch with events in Mount
Olive via our web site and feel free to give us your feedback.

RECYCLED ITEMS PICK UP

In an effort to conserve fuel due to the rising costs we will only pick up recyclables every other
week. This is effective
June 1, 2008. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to
contact the Town
Manager's office at 919-658-9539 ext. 106 or 107.
