RESOLUTION FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, EDUCATIONAL FUNDING AT MITCHELL COMMUNITY COLLEGE: Chair-
man Hedrick read the agreement in its entirety, after which a MOTION was made by Commissioner
Stewart to accept the resolution as presented, which is as follows:
WHEREAS, studies conducted by several state agencies have found an alarmingly high rate of
r
functional illiteracy among the adult populations; and
WHEREAS, it has been reported numerous times by the Department of Commerce and other agencies
that a major obstacle to industrial recruitment in North Carolina is the minimum size of an ade-
quately trained work force; and
I'T WHEREAS, the location of industry in a county is important in that it contributes to the tax
base allowing a higher level of service to the people at a price they can afford and it affords jobs
to our citizens and supports our local charities and enriches the life of our citizens and communi-
ties in numerous other ways; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners of Iredell County are committed to improving the lifestyle
of our citizens, enhancing the quality of life, delivering services to the people at affordable
prices, providing jobs for our citizens and educating our people; and
WHEREAS, we are reliably informed and believe that the formation of a training program for the
employees of certain high-tech industries is an initiative which will result in a substantial number
of our citizens receiving education and training which will assist them throughout their lives and
will result in their being better informed, better trained, more productive and higher earning
citizens; and
WHEREAS, we have conferred with officials from Mitchell Community College, the North Carolina
Department of Commerce and our Industrial Recruiter and we have jointly recommended a plan for a
training program which will supplement and enhance the new industry training programs now used by
the Department of Commerce and which we believe will accomplish the dual purpose of training and
educating our citizens and recruiting new industry to our county.
Now, therefore, WE RESOLVE:
1. There is hereby created an Industrial Training Program to be operated by Mitchell Community
College.
