PIEDMONT MEDIATION CENTER - REQUEST FOR FUNDS: Mrs. Billie-Fae Gill came before the board to k
request funds for the Piedmont Mediation Center. She explained the program and brought brochures to
illustrate the center's activities. Mrs. Gill said this program is funded by the Administrative
Office of the Courts; however, they lacked $10,000 getting the funds necessary to run the program
this year. This is a one-time only request, Mrs. Gill said. Next year they hope to get their
request to the General Assembly in time for appropriation. In addition to the request from the
County, Mrs. Gill is also making a request of the City of Statesville.
Commissioner Ostwalt inquired about the budget for this agency. Mrs. Gill replied their budget
for 87-88 was $31,895; for 88-89 - $32,000.
After further discussion Vice Chairman Stewart said since the board has just completed its BB -
89 budget process, the board would like to take the request under consideration and put it back on
the agenda for the next meeting on August 2, 1988.

CHESTNUT GROVE COMMUNITY CENTER: Mr. James Roseboro was at the briefing on Monday, July 18,
1988, because of a conflict with his work schedule. His request is for funds to purchase two window
air conditioning units and a water fountain for the Chestnut Grove Community Center. Mr. Roseboro,
a school teacher, says he plans to have a tutoring service and to provide programs for senior
citizens in the Chestnut Grove area. Mr. Mashburn, county manager, remarked that there was some
question in his mind as to whether the request was for the entire amount of $2,000 or whether 1/2
would be matched by Chestnut Grove. He also stated that Centralina Council of Governments has been
notified about seeking a grant to cover this expenditure. Mr. Bill Duston of the COG office is
looking into the possibility of a Community Development grant.
This matter was tabled until clarification of the exact amount requested and for further
information from the COG office.
