(b) the interest rate shall be the equivalent of the average
rate earned by Iredell County on the unloaned portion of the
fund;
(c) repayment of the loan will be guaranteed by Iredell County.
Mr. William P. Pope, County Attorney, stated in the discussion of these plans that he would
like to go on record to state that the money was accumulated in this escrow account for a purpose.
It was not immediately spent for several reasons, one of the reasons is that there are situations
where the county might be called upon to take over the hospital again. Another reason is the
potential liabilities that may arise.
In further discussion of the appointments to the Lowrance Escrow Board, it was suggested that a
letter be written to Mr. Holshouser.
The board also discussed the possibility of getting a 1,000 sq. ft. modular type building at a
price of approximately $35,000, which is thought to be suitable for the EMS Building at Mooresville.
It is estimated that the cost would be approximately $50,000 and includes everything but furniture.
MOTION from Chairman Sloan to approve this amendment as presented by Mr. Pope, with the
addition of the money for the EMS building and with the modification of the water and sewer to
include expansion of the sewage facility in Mooresville.

ger, is planning to charter a bus for the Cincinnati trip. It is going to cost $80 for each person
traveling on the bus. The bus will be available for trips at Cincinnati. They plan to leave on

TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PLAN: This plan was brought to the attention of the board. A
meeting will be held on May 16, 1989, 2:00 p.m., Holiday Inn, Hickory, NC, on the proposed Transpor-
tation Improvement Plan. Both Mooresville and Statesville have plans for improvement. The county
would like to add the widening of Highway 21 North between Statesville and I-77. After discussion,
it was suggested that Chairman Sloan write a letter of support for both Statesville and
Mooresville's programs and ask that both Mooresville and Statesville support the county in the
request for widening Highway 21 North.

VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0.
It was suggested that a letter be drafted to Mr. Robert Holshouser, who was resigning from this
board.
MEADOWBROOK SUBDIVISION SEWAGE LINE COST PARTICIPATION PROJECT: It was suggested that the
county manager should be authorized to contact Willis Engineering Services, the firm that does the --
engineering for water and sewer lines for Mooresville, and arrange a professional contract with them
to do the engineering work for the captioned project. It is believed this would be the best way to
go since they do Mooresville's sewer line work and this line would connect to the Mooresville line.
ADJOURN: Chairman Sloan adjourned the meeting until 10:00 a.m, on May 6, 1989, Highway 901
East of Harmony, at the Auction Sale of the Property.
