Commissioner Hedrick discussed the part of the plan dealing with no member of the school board
could serve more than two consecutive terms. Mr. Ashburn said the City board can only serve two
terms now. This came into existence when the City went to district representation.
Commissioner Murdock inquired about the lack of provision for a vice chairman. Dr. Williams
said that would be the decision of the board at that time. Commissioner Murdock inquired about
the procedures if a vacancy on the board occurs in the middle of a term. Would the remaining board
members make an appointment from that district? Who would make the recommendation to the board?
People in the district? Other members of the board?
Dr. Miller referred to a rule, GS 115-37.
Chairman Sloan inquired about the busing issue. Mr. Ivey responded to his question.
Commissioner Hedrick made further inquiries about obligation of funding in connection with
capital projects. Mr. Ashburn said they would delay construction until they had the money to
construct.
Further discussion took place regarding the merger plan. Upon completion of the study, Chair-
man Sloan recognized the new county commissioner, Mr. Chandler Bryan, who was in attendance for his
first meeting. Mr. Bryan was appointed to replace Mrs. Jessie S. Crosswhite, who resigned to be
