r,,.. CONSIDERATION DEFINITION OF A FIRE AND RESCUE SERVICE TAX DISTRICT: Chairman Hedrick began the
public hearing by asking that the "Rescue" portion be eliminated from the proposed ordinance. He
announced that the maximum amount of the levy would be five (5) cents. He then gave some rules for
speaking at this hearing, one of which was that anyone who had spoken at the meeting previously
would not need to speak again as the comments were already on record.
(1) Arnold Alexander - Hickory Highway: Asked if the tax would be on the land as well as the
dwelling. Chairman Hedrick answered his question by saying that the farm use program in the taxa-
tion schedule allowed for a break in the land which would also be applicable to the fire tax
district.
(2) Lonnie Wooten - West Iredell Area: Inquired if this would also be levied inside the City.
Chairman Hedrick said this district would exclude Statesville, Mooresville, Mt. Mourne District,
Shepherds District, and the East Alexander District.
(3) Hilda Brady - Wayside Area: Said she was a member of the Women's Auxiliary for the
Wayside Volunteer Fire Department. She is in favor of the tax district.
(4) Herb Kuppel: Inquired what are the tax rates for Mt. Mourne and Shepherds Districts.
(5) R. Alexander - West Iredell: Inquired what would be the taxing rate for a person 65 years
of age with acreage.
There were no other comments.
